Judge Gary
Can't See.
Peace Near

Despite repeated rumors that
Col. D. c. JaekIing. mining
masnate, and Judge Eibert n.
Gary. head Of the v. S. Steel
Corporation, have negotiated
to establish a vast steel manu-
featuring center somewhere on
the Pacific Coast, these two
capitalists, in Seattle today,
vigorously denied they had
any such plans.
81 have absolutely no con-
neetlon with any such project"
declared Col. JackIinp, at the
New Washington.
There are no such plans that l
know of. said Judge Gary. These
denials came in face of reports
that options on property have al
ready been taken on Lake Wash
ington and in the South.
On Pleasure Trip
They arrived in special cars at
1i:l5 a. m. went TO the New Wash
ington hotel and prepared to go TO
Tacoma Saturday afternoon as
guests of II. +. Alexander. presi-
dent of the Pacific Coast Steam
ship Co.
Judge Gary and Jackling viii sail
aboard the s. S. Spokane Monday
for Juneau. Aitho they intend to
inspect the Jackling copper prop
critics there. both insist it's lust
for pleasure and the fulfillment
of a long planned iunket.
Altho Jackling was reticent.
Judge Gary frankly discussed war
and Pacific Coast trade conditions.
Gary Doesn't See Peace Near
There is nothing to indicate
any near peace" he said. "The
biggest service the Northwest can
do is to promptly furnish sufficient
lumber. fruit. grain and fish.
Can't See Steel Plant Here
Speaking OF the need for steel by
Japanese shipbuilders, and the prac-
ticability of Pacific coast plants TO
furnish it, he said:
Il don't think plant on this
Coast would pay. | know nothing
concerning the location of sufii-
cient ore. either in quantity or quail

Coal. too. is lacking. altho | guess
there is some fairly good coal in

and Japanese development. and

Mrs. Gary Is along. They left
New York August |, and spent sew
eral days at Glacier National park.
The Judge, known as head OF the
steel trust" was smiling and vigor-
Gus. Jackling was less jocular and
apparently absorbed by his heavy
business responsibilities.

MINUTES OF THE
 TEACHERS MEETING
A Very Instructive Association Held Here December 1.
 Many Present.

The White County Teachers Association met on December 1, 1917, at Judsonia, with MT. Ying ling, President, in the chair.
 The meeting was called to or der and the program was then taken up. Owing to the fact that one of the speakers had to catch an early train, some of the numbers on the. program were changed.
 MT. A. B. Hill made a splendid talk on Efficiency"
 A very instructive talk on Practical Horticulture in White County Schools was given by Mir. w. c. North, President of the Judsonia Fruit Growers As sociation.
 President of the State Normal Prof. B. W. Torreyson, talked on the subject, How far can the compulsory schol law be enforc- ed ?' After Mir. Torreyson had discussed the subject, Supt.J. w. Henry also talked on the same  suhiect. This being of great in1- poigance to both directors a.4a teachers, some time was given to it.
 Dinner was then announced by bugle call. The band play while the teachers assembled in the s. I. A. room where the lad ies of the s. I. A. served g most bounteous dinner, cafateria style.
 At 1 o'clock the meeting was called to order.
 On account of the postpone rnent of the Welcome Address until after dinner it was now giv en by Dr. J. c. Huntley, with the response by Miss Clancy of Bald Knob. Miss Lois Winn read 9 splendid paper on "Pri- mary Methods" which was very instructive to young teachers.

5. In preparing dried foods, wash them and put them to soak When ready to cook, use the water for cook ing in which the soaking has taken place. Otherwise the food materials in the water in which the food is pumped are lost.
 : 6. Meat should be used very spar :ingly. The cheaper, tougher cuts may be purchased and ground in 6 meat chopper at home. Do not buy the hamburger" or meat loaf" already prepared. Do not use veal or imma- ture poultry for foods. Instead, use fish, mature poultry, rabbits, etc, if one feels the need of meat. Beans, peas, cheese, milk, eggs, nuts, etc., are the preferable substitutes.
 '. Use less wheat-if wheat flour is employed. use only the graham flour made of the entire wheat grain. Shorts, middlings and bran make d very good bread.
 8. Use less sugar. Leave cakes out of the menus, and especially the rich, frosted cakes Use, instead, hard fruit cookies containing raisins, pruues, dates, etc., which contain the natural 'Sluaa sugar.
Judsonia weekly advance., 1917-12-12
GENERAL PRINCIPLES TO BE USED IN PLANNING AND PRE-
 PAIRING WAR MENUS.

1. Avoid fried foods, thereby con- serving the fat supply and promoting greater ease of digestion.
 2. Use cooked breakfast foods such as mush, oatmeal. brown rice, whole wheat. etc, in the place of the more expensive prepared" foods, such as corn flakes, puffed rice. etc.
 3. Use skiMmed milk for the adults and whole milk for the chil- dren.
 1 Cook all vegetables so as to conserve the mineral. Cook potatoes with their jackets on Never discard the liquor in which vegetables have been cooked. Use it for soups and white sauce.

WAR TIME RECIPES
 FOR XMAS COOKING

 ban Emergency Agent. Extension
 Division, University of Arkansas.
 Every time the housewife prepares meal she is helping to decide just how long the war will last. With her rests the responsibility of choosing wisely from the meager supply of meat, fat, sugar and wheat which must run not only the family but the American Army and the Allies as we'll, Instead of spending the time in sentiment, thinking of the horror of the war, she had better put her shoulder to the wheel during the holi- ready done so, to take up the most difficult of problems: How to conserve the supply of food in the Worlds larder. Let the housewives learn the how" of serving war me. nus. The following suggestions should be helpful in making preparations for Christmas:
 Special Recipes.
 Whole Wheat: Select clean, whole wheat. Wash and then let soak over night; cook in a double boiler in the same water in which the wheat has soaked until it is thoroughly tender. If possible, use fireless cooker for the cookery of all breakfast foods. This insures thorough cooking. Brown Rice: The brown rice should be looked over, washing in a sieve andf then a5ded gradually to rapidly boiling water, Let boil for one i hour, then let dry Gut and serve. Try i to have as little water as is possible at the end of the cooking Drain the rice and let dry out so as to separate 1 the grains. Never throw away any ] liquid from the brown rice as it con tains valable minerals. Reserve this liquor and use it in soup making, bread making, etc.
 l Cornmeal, Wheat. Flour Biscuits: Two cups cornmeaI 2 teaspoons salt, 4 teaspoons shortening, 2 cups sifte6 l flour, 1 teaspoons baking powder, li- quid sufficient to mix. Bake about 12 minutes or until light brown. In the same way may be used rice flour, soy | bean flour, whole wheat, oatmeal, bar i ley, sorghum grains, peanut meal, etc.
 Sweet Potato Mufflns: One and one-half cup mashed cooked sweet po- tatoes, one teaspoon salt, two table spoons shortening, milk sufficient to i make stiff batter (about one-half cup).
 Cotton Seed Flour Cookies: One 2 teaspoons mixed ground spices, } tablespoons butter, 2 cups white sift- ed flour, teaspoons baking powder, 3-4 cup sugar, egg, milk sufficient to mix rather stiff. May use in same way cornmeal, oatmeal, rice flour, peanut meal, soy bean meal, whole wheat, etc. With soy beans omit egg.
 Rice and Wheat Gems: One cup ground brown rice, one cup sifted white flour, 3 teaspoons baking pow der tablespoons sugar, eggs, cup wheat meal, 1 1-2 teaspoons salt, ta- blespoons sugar, 2 tablespoons short ening, milk sufficient for medium bat 1 ter (abOut l 1-2 cups).
 l The yeast breads are to be preferred as they require little or no shortening and are far more healthful. However special recipes for the use of wheat breads may be obtained by writing to the Extension Division of the Univer- sity of Arkansas, Old Statehouse, Lit | tie Rock, Ark.

count most in schools?, was ably discussed by MT. J. F. Boggs, af- ter which MT. B. w. Torreyson gave the teachers few inter- esting facts about Scarcity of teachers since the war"
 MT. Jesse Middleton being ab- sent. his well prepared paper on What can the teacher do in the Rural district to stimulate Agri- culture," was read by MT. J. K. Rawlings.
 Miss Gela Brandon's carefully prepared paper, What can the Lady Teacher do in the Rural Districts to stimulate Domestic Economy" was certainly appre- eiated by all rural teachers.
 MF. J. A. Roberts being ab- sent, his subject, Opportunities and Obligations of Schools dur ing the War;" was discussed by Supt. Bateman, of Searcy, which was very interesting.
 General discussion led by MT. Aldridge and Supt. Henry was mostly on County Contests. !" Most of the teachers thought favorably of the school meet, that is, if it be made possible for all rural schools to take part.
 The minutes, of the last meet ing were adopted as printed in the White County papers.
 McRae was then chosen unan- imousIy for the next meeting. of the White County Teachers As soeiation which will be held the first Saturdazin March, and a
 8nslaittee consisting of MT. J. 2. Boggs, Miss Mollie Davis and Miss Beulah Majors were ap- pointed for the following reso- lutions, which were read and a. Faapted: First Resolved, that we, the teachers of White coun- y, wish to thank the school board and their faculty for the ase of their school building and for their untiring efforts in mak ing the day a very pleasant one. Second-Resolved, that we ex- press our sincere appreciation to the s. I. A. for their bounti- ful repast.
 Ihird-Resolved, that we es- specially thank Mr. Hill, Mir. Tor tyson, MT, North and Dr. Hunt ley for their splendid addresses.

He arose, opened his lips to say
something more, then changed his
mind, bowed, and hurried away.
Kasia stared after him. She had
not seen that silent summons. But
he did not look back.
An hour later, Pachmann, with
a countenance distinctly troubled,
sought out 1gnace Ward, who was
reading in his room.
"The prince has been talking to
your daughter" he said.
Ward looked at him in surprise.

explained. 81 thought perhaps

"Has she told you nothing9"
Again Ward glanced at him.
"No. Has she reason for COM

say he behaved decently enough.
But he spouted a lot of childish
nonsense about German hopes and
German ambitions, and I feared
your daughter might take him
seriously. He is nothing but an
ignorant young fool"
Ward laid aside his book and
looked Pachmann full in the face.
"The truth comes sometimes

said. "When am l to have NV
