NEW PIGS.

There was great deal of excite

For FIVE new little pigs had just ar

All the animals were to be seen
going in one direction, and if any one
asked:
"'Whcre are you going: the answer

Pen. There are five new pigs
"Of course this answer would come
in different tones from different voices.
Some would squeak it, some Squral,
some grunt or Eubble or moo, But
they all talked in their own way and
were quite natural. That can always
be said for the barTyard folk. They
do not put on airs
"Of course old Grandfather P0rky

HOOVer'S Six Rules.

In an article in the September
Woman's Home Companion, a
writer gives Herbert Hoover's
six rules for food economy. They
are:
"FirSt-To save the wheat. If
wheat as usual from our harvest
this year we shall have little more
than enough for our own supply,
but we can divide with our allies
if each individual makes some
sacrifice by eating at least one
wheatless meal a day.
"Second-We want to save the
meat, for our cattle and hogs are
decreasing, and we must send
meat to our allies.
"Third-We wish to save the
fats. We wish no butter used in
cooking, less served on the table;
we want less lard, bacon and
other pork products used.
Fourth h-Defciencies in food
supply can be amply covered by
increasing the use of fish, pota-
toes, beans, turnips, cabbage,
and vegetables generally, corn.
buckWeat, rye and rice, which
we will have in abundance this
harvest.
"Fifth-We want to save trans
portatlon. To meet the war pres
sure for munitions, men and coal,
everyone should consume pro-
ducts of local origin so far as
possible.
"Sixth-We want all to preach
the gospel of the clean plate to
see that nothing of value eoesln-
to the garbage can,
Aside from eating an increas-
ed proportion of these commodit-
les in order to save on the staples,
it is extremely important that
any surplus of these commodities
shall be preserved or stored for
winter use"

FOUR DAYS AHEAD
Knew Of Departure of U. S.
Flotilla Long Before Ships
Landed, Sims Reports.

Germany knew of the departure Of the
American destroyer feet for the sub
marine zone before, or at least as soon
as, the ships sailed. This was made
plain yesterday when Secretary of the
Navy Daniels made public the full re-
port of Rear Admiral Sims at London on
the mining OF the harbor for which the
ships were bound. 4
This report shows that German new4
papers printed news Of the fleets sailing
four days before the destroyers reached
England, and many days before the
slightest hint Of the movement was
known in America
The waters for which the destroyers
were heading had been free Of mines for
three months prior to the day before the
American fleets arrival
The report from Admiral Sims follows.
AN interesting feature in connection
with the arrival OF the destroyers is the
report that their sailing appeared in
Berlin newspapers about four DAYS be-
fore their arrival. and also that A field
OF mines was planted Immediately of
the entrance of the port at which they
arrived the day before the arrival took
place. These were the first mines plant
ed in that vicinity during the previous
three months"
Admiral Sims then devotes himseIr to
the condition Of the fleet

says, the excellent impression given bv
our officers, ships and the crews under
command. Our ships made no demands
Of consequence upon the facilities Of
fered here, in spite OF the length OF their
passage under adverse conditions
The commander, when Questioned nv
the admiralty as to when his vessels
would be ready for duty, reported that
he should be ready that night. as soon
as the ships were refueled This was an
parently a considerable surprise 70 the
admiralty, who then gave them four
days before taking up active work.
Complimentary Comment.
The vessels themselves caused a great
deal of complimentary comment, and
we're found to be well equipped for their
prospective duty"
Commenting on Admiral Sims renort
Secretary Daniels said:
This is the only reference he ra5e IN
the knowledge in Berlin of the ssII;nS
or our destroyers or the mining of the
harbor. He did not give any statement
or speculation as to how Berlin obtains
its information"

The climax Of the great financial cam
paign launched by the bankers and busi-
ness men Of Washington to take $1,000. .ooo
in liberty bonds centered In a great mass
meeting at the Central High School audi
torium, where 1,5OO people heard three
high government officials tell why the

Of the country become the creditors Of
the nation.
The speakers were Oscar T Crosby
Charles s. Hamlin, member of the Fed
eral Reserve Board, and Carter Keene
director Of the postal savings system
John Poole, president of the Federal
National Bank, and chairman of the
committee OF bankers behind the liberty
loan campaign, presided. A Marine
Band concert preceded the meeting.
VIII Canvass Theaters.
Mr.. Poole, who opened the meeting
with a brief talk. told of the financial
machinery that has been created in
Washington to float the Districts share
of the loan. He declared it necessary for
the sake OF sentiment TO OVer-SuDScrlDe
Washington's portion by at least $, Zoo, 900
and Of the methods that are being used
to attain this end.
He read a telegram from the Federal
Reserve Bank, of Richmond. in which the
committee was urged to enlist the coop
Grafton of local theaters, so that solicit
Ors might go through the audiences to-
morrow to solicit loan subscriptions. He
also pointed out that Washington, with
the first day of June stil two days on
has already subscribed s5.SS.550, with
more than two weeks yet to go before
the subscription books close.

lea could not have financed its gigantic

System. He also paid a high tribute to
