STATE COLLEGE GIRLS
HUMBLE DIET SQUAD
Live on 21.S Cents Per Day, Lower
ing Record of Mooted Chicago
Squad
BY Minnie NJ. Wothen
Gin the Evergreen)

The Chicago diet squad was de-
servedly famous for living on 25
cents a day with the present high
prices OF food. But the girls in the
Senior class of the home economies
department of Washington State
have them beaten four cents per
day. Each month four girls, with a
chaperon, live in the practice house.
These girls plan and prepare their
own meals, meals which anyone
would be glad to eat, meals which
furnish the correct amount OF fuel
value and which have the right
amount OF protein. And they do it
at a cost of 21.S cents, based on the
cost OF food in Pullman stores. This.
amount is used because it is esti-
mated that the average American
family OF five, to live efficiently,
should have at least $1,000 a year.
DR.. Benjamin Andrews OF Teachers
College. estimates that 40 per cent
of this should be spent for food. So
there are accorded 21.S cents per
person.

The one-dish dietary is only used

cost seven cents. consisted of cocoa,
nut bread, butter. and apple sauce.
While the meals are simple, the girls
find them satisfactory. One member
of this months group said, "Starv-

Division of Labor
The routine work of the house is
divided between the four girls in
the following manner:
l. Housekeeper, who plans the
menus, sees to the ordering and mar
keting, has general supervision over
the Homework, is hostess and plans
simple social activities, prepares her
share of the meals, and keeps the
household accounts. "a card system
is being used for the accounts and

in cooking. An electric range has
been installed at the practice house,
and, under the supervision of Prof.
B. L. Steele, they will experiment
with the electric range, the coal
range with water attached and with
water cut off, in order to learn for
themselves which is best adapted to
family use
The practice house could more tru-
ly be called a practice home, for it
includes all of the interests that
should be in we'll regulated home.
And Entertaining?
A careful study is made of the art
of entertaining at small cost. The
different ways in which a home can
offer hospitality are considered. In
entertaining, the girls may have one
guest at lunch or dinner during the
week. The hostess can have a din
ner guest Sunday, or two if one of
the house members is absent. They
do not entertain on the afternoons
when vespers are given. On one of
the other Sundays they are at home
to their friends. The other Sunday
they have house guest who con-
tributes something to their life in the
nature of an informal talk.
Since books. as well as friends are
part of true home, they are start
ing we'll selected home library. A
few books, but these good ones will
be secured at a time.
When they leave the practice
house the girls will have a we'll de-

Might Rouse Russian People.

And such an invasion might con-
ceivably rouse Russia, as the invasion
Of France reused the French people
at the time of their revolution. This
is consideration always present in
the German mind and plainly revealed
in all German operations since the Rus
sian revolution became socialistic
rather than nationalistic.
The great harm to the allied cause
of the Russian collapse has been that
it has permitted the transfer of many
divisions of troops, a large amount Of
artillery, of most of the air squadrons
and of the larger share of munition
reserves to the western front We saw
the other day, when the Russian army
in Galicia collapsed. when it ran away
leaving its artillery and it's equipment
that the army in front of it was so

tro-German armies fighting for their
liberty.
There is only one more injury that
Russia could do the allied cause She
would do this if she made a separate
peace Until she makes a separate
peace Germany must keep some troops
and some guns on the eastern front
and Austria and Germany must police
to some extent front over a thousand
miles long. Reliyed of this task by
a separate peace, they would then be
able to turn certain number of troops
to the west against England. France
and Italy. But even these troops would

To "Camoufiage" Defeats.

Germany will use Russian events to
camoufage her own western defeats
for many months to come Every time
there is a German defeat in the west
we may expect the industrious German
agents all over the world to point 10
Russian disasters. TO point to Russian
failures, to point to ground gained be-
tween the Baltic and the Black sea as
proof that Germany is invincible and
victorious.
Washington should compose itself and
not fall so readily the victim of tenn
porary emotions. 1t was only yester-
day that the return of few American
officers from a hasty run down the
western front was celebrated in Wash
ington by the most alarming crop of
rumors that have yet come from the
capital Hardly had these rumors been
disseminated when the French and
British took the offensive and won sue
cesses which are notable and retook
ground in a few days the capture of
which had occupied the Germans for
months. All this was thing of joy
for German agents and German sym

TO Austria because OF the moral effect

No Signs of Separate Peace.
Now. there is nothing in the present

Ihere is very real possibility that

that the Rumanian troops 7,-:;l be
driven out of the ls-- r..rtion of their
fatherland which remains to them 1t
is quite likely tha: Germany as she
suffers one heavy blow after another
on the western front and loses one

ance her losses both for her people and
for the world by easy and relatively in
expensive gains on the eastern front.

the German public'S mind for the re-

is only window dressing. and il has no

Americans familiar with the civil war
history may recall the grim comment OF
Gen. Grant when Early started on his
road toward Washington in 1864. The
great general regarded 1t as not wholly
undesirable that the capital should
have a period of anxiety and of actual
threat of invasion. although he saw to
It that there should be reserves avail

IDENTIFY Washington has had another
panic, and Mr.. Lansing's statement Fri

saved again in time.
Now. as to the exact situation in Rus
sia, no one can speak with authority, as
there is not a large amount of useful
information. The condition remains
problematical. the possibility of more
revolutions and counter revolutions is
obvious. the change in control from
group to group is as easy as was the
similar change in the French pSvolu
ton.
But 1t ought to be recognized by
everybody that Russia is no longer a
factor in the war to be reckoned upon
for any specific task, now or for many
months to come. You have got to be-
