HaW to Save Sugar.
Save sugar!

Save sugar!
France and Italy formerly pro-
duced their own sugar. England
imported more than half her su-
gar from Germany and Austria.
French and Italian production
is reduced; normal English sup
plies are cut off.
Therefore our allies must come
to the United States and West
Indies for over 100000 tons to
secure sufficient sugar. To keep
them efficient In the war, we
must divide with them. And
only by cutting down our con-
sumption can we increase the
amount to send them.
We can do this, however, with
out hardship-by eliminating
waste and extravagances.
Use less candy and sweet
drinks.
Leave off frOs ting and icing
from cakes.
Use honey and syrups instead
of sugar and butter, nth waffles,
not cakes, etc.
One ounce of sugar per day
per person saved will mean 100,-
600 tons per month additional
for export to our allies.

work throughout was of the very
:leverest sort and different from the
'ld-time chalk drawers work"
During the entertainment Miss Bar
gelt introduces a number of interest
ing features, one of which is to select
some writings, either poetry or prose,
which she reads to the audience and
at the same time presents 1t in picture
form. Thus she gives her audience a
double conception.
Her pictures appear on the canvas as
If by magic, beginning with few SIM
pie words and ending with a gorgeous
and handsome production. Her crayon
work is as comical as her more digni-
fed sketches are beautiful.
Miss Bargelt's highly pleasing per-
sonality is another feature which adds
greatly to the success of her programs.

that shell fire, even when in

sounds.
So much shrapnel has fallen
since the battlelions of the second
contingent in the trenches have
taken their posts that the men
have ceased to worry about it.,
hardly paying any more atten-
ton to it than to tain. The CON-
mander of one battlelion said
that since the men had entered

more of them to go to the hospi-
