SEND PILLOWS TO SOL
pIERs At CAMP DODGE

| have been out to Camp Dodge
near Des. Moines and find the
boys from Harrison county in
pretty good shape, except they
have no pillows to lay their heads
on. When l was in the army we
had high top boots which we used
as pillows, but the boys out at
Camp Dodge all have low top
boots and cannot use them for
pillows. would suggest that
each father, wife or sweetheart
send a pillow TO their husband,
brother or sweetheart and they
will sure be appreciated by the
soldier boys. Send the pillows by
parcel post. Yours truly,

says, THE truly upbuilding

And Mr.. Fox adds: You are
right, Professor, and in this film

Walsh and all of us are not
preaching a sermon. We are
telling the greatest human story
of life as it has really been lived.
and we are offering our public a

all there creeps out the truth, and
it cannot be denied that the
greatest human endeavor is the

these layers separate without rough
edges or are not as apt to soak when
the berries are added. II liked as in
dividual cakes cut out with a large bis
cult cutter. These may be prepared
as the larger ones were, or split and
spread with butter and berries.
A good recipe for shortcakes is the
following: Take two cupfuls of flour,
one-half teaspoonful of salt, three tea
spoonfuls Of baking powder, three ia
blespoonfuls of lard and three of but
ter, q half cupful of cold milk. Mix
and sift the dry ingredients, then with
two knives cut in the lard and butter
then add the milk and roll out
lightly.
Any fruit mixture makes good fill
ing. Crush a few Strawberries,
enough to make good layer on top
and between the crusts, then put
few whole or halved berries for gar
nish on top. Serve with whipped
cream.
For change sometime crush cup
full of berries and mix them with
cupful of cream, sweetened well; put
on as usual and garnish with sliced
berries.
Pineapple shortcake.-Cut the pine
apple in small cubes and stew until
tender, with sugar to taste. Cool and
chill on ice. Strain off the juice to
use in pudding sauce, and to the fruit
add whipped cream. Pile between and
on the top Of the cakes and garnish
with candied cherry OF cranberry.
Raspberry and currant Shortcake.-
These may be made of the canned va
rie<y, but are not nearly as good as
the fresh. Mix with the berries, if fresh,
cupful Of strained currant juice to a
quart Of the berries. If canned ber-
ries are used add little currant juice
or Jelly to give G flavor. Garnish with
whipped cream.

SEEING ENEM Y PROPERTY

The American government is about to take possess
ston Of several hundred million dollars worth of property
in this country owned by Germans who are residents of
their own country. Included in the list are moneys and
credits due Germans. large quantities Of cotton and other
material purchased by Germans and not delivered, and
patents which have been given in this country on Ger
man inventions and processes.
The seizure of this property, or SO much of it. as is
rOwned by private individuals would be an act of injus-
tce IL the property were to be taken without compensa-
ton to the owners. Outside of Germany no modern ma
ton which processes to be civilized confscates private
property without compensation. Germany recognizes no
law, and is therefore not to be considered. Other ma
lions govern themselves by better rules. This will be so
in the present case. Wherever it is shown that such
property as that about to be seized is in good faith the
property of private persons a strict account will be kept
until after the war, and all property will be restored or
paid for on a just basis with compensation for its use.
The appropriation of German patents is particularly
important. Since the war started great progress has been
made by our chemists and manufacturers in perfecting
many methods which had been neglected here. This
Is true especially Of the dye industry. But there remain
processes Of great value which are protected by German
patents. and licenses will be granted to American man
ufacturers to use these processes, payment to be made
after the war. The foreign owners will therefore be
fully compensated for the use Of their property, and the
United States will in the meantime have the advantage
Of the use of the methods.

The government cannot now, of all times. incur the
loss and hindrance involved in settling renewed labor
disturbances. Soldiers. capital and business nave been
.conscripted in democracy's just cause. 1t may be pos
sible that in the near future the. government will be COM
PEELED to follow the lead of England and France and
draft labor. 1t must do its part in the common cause.
Meanwhile the United. States must bend every effort
to increase its producing capacity, which, although 1t Is
greater than ever, is not equal to the maximum world
demands now being made on 1t because much European
production is either diverted solely to the requirements
of war or is in enforced idleness.
The armies Of business, however. are still using the
old weapons and the old methods There are no training
camps for business men as there are for soldiers. Eacn
merchant and manufacturer must study each new ques-
ton for himself as it arises. Interchange of opinion Is
only just beginning. The time is coming when the. CO.
operative effort for education, Improvement and co-or-
dination in this direction will become a mighty force.
The armies of business must be trained and disciplined
as thoroughly as the armies Of war, so that officers and
men will know that it is zone for ALL and all for one"
instead of every man for himself" that brings victory.

FAILURE OF HE ZEPPELIN

8 The war has provided q test of the usefulness of the.
dirfgtble balloon The Zeppelin is undoubtedly the finest
and most efficient of air craft Of its type. And the war
has shown with seeming conclusiveness that the Zeppe-
lin, while it has its uses, perhaps, is of such limited
availability that it cannot be relied on for any really
important service at all commensurate with its cost. The
recent raid of Zeppelins over England furnishes an il
lustration which may be added to many others of its
KIND, all combining to indicate tina. the Zeppelin is not
a success. The air ships which sailed over England I'M
oertook to return by way of France, and most of them
were destroyed before they reached the German lines.
This sort of thing has occurred time after time. and it
has become an old story.
The hghter-than-air vessel must be big and fragile.
1 must be big because it must have a large gas capacity,
Otherwise 1t would not have buoyancy. It must be fragile,
otnerw1se the lifting power of the gas is consumed in
carrying the structure itself. And because it is big and
fragile 1t is necessarily the plaything of the elements.
Add to this that the Zeppelin is a tremendously costly
hnaar, and it becomes apparent that it represents a waste.
The airplane is a different sort of vehicle. No air
plane has yet been built with the carrying capacity of
the largest Zeppelins. but some very large ones are in
process of construction. The hier may be made very
small and very swift. A speed of 100 miles an hour is
commonplace, and 1t is limited that some of the new ma
cnines Will double that speed. 1t is controlled with COM
;perafive ease, and can be used for either fighting or
scouting. The war will close with the airplane developed
to 9 wonderful degree Of efficiency, while the zeppe1;n
VIII remain what it was at the beginning. big. weak
clumsy. and enormously costly.
