Crandmother's Method Of
Making Kitchen Soap

Grandmother knew how to make use
Of leftover fats and greases, and she
kept the kitchen supplied with useful
grade of homemade soap.
Here's the way she did it:
She saved all of the drippings not
useful for cooking and kept them In q
large earthenware crock. and at the
end Of each month she made them into
soap.
First she put all the fat into large
kettle on the back Of the stove. and
when II was all melted she cut up
large raw potato and dropped 1t In to
purify it. Then she let the tat cook
slowly until all the water was evap-
grated or until it stopped sputtering.
When the Fat was pure she strained it
through several thicknesses Of cheese
cloth, or If she wanted it whittier she
strained it through charcoal or clay.
She made a soda solution Of one
pound of pure caustic soda dissolved In
ave pints Of water and mixed in four.
teen ounces of this solution to each
pound of pure warm fat, and she stir
red the mass until smooth. Then she
poured the mixture into pans or boxes
lined with creased paper and put II
away In a dry place to harden until
needed.

DIR. HERMANN M. BIGas.
Council of Defense at Albany, under
whose authorization the experiments
were carried on by group of lung spe-
cialists and roentgenOlogists. State
Health Commissioner Hermann M.
Biggs was In charge Of the examina-
tions.
The Sixty-ninth made an admirable
showing in the~tests, to judge from the
findings announced on the GOO plates
interpreted to date. OF these 600 there
were twenty-five men, or fraction
over 8 per cent, found with definite
tuberculosis sufficient to disqualify
them for military service. In addition
there were eighteen who showed pull
monary LESSONS or lung changes indi-
eating arrested tuberculosis. Thetwen-
ty-two definite cases. taking Cadada's
figures as a basis, If exposed 10 the
strain of life in the trenches woHld In
evitably break down and be invaded
home. The expense Of their training,
transportation and other items enter
ing into the making Of soldier would
thus be lost, in addition to their being
a source Of infection to their fellow
soldiers. The expense to the govern
ment Of care and pension allowance
would also be entailed. amounting to at
least 81. 900 annually for each one. who
under ordinary conditions might have
continued civilian activities without
physical impairment.
! These experiments. according to the
report, are believed to have demon
strated the entire practicability Of thu
method of determining the presence
of the disease among soldiers at a min
imum Of time and medical supervision
Seven and one-half hours were re
quired for the making Of the 1880 ex
posures. or twenty-six seconds pc
man: developing the plates by one mai
took forty hours. or two minutes ant
twenty-four seconds per plate: inter
preting the 600 plates was done b
eight hours. or at the rate Of forty
eight seconds per plate. Thus the tota
time for making. developing and read
ing each plate was three minutes an
thirty eight seconds. The report state
that this time can be materially cut b
means Of a few mechanical improve
ments.

All garments should be loose, so that
the circulation will not be retarded.
Avoid trimming and rough seams
that may touch the flesh. Care in this
regard and simplicity Of design are bet

Lightweight shirts and slips are best
for summer time, but loose, warm
wrap should always be handy In case
the temperature drops quickly.

soap in removing dirt. killing germs
and in making the fabric sweet an6

COOPERATION LIFE TO CITY
Community Which Does Not Eneour'
age Growth Of individuals and
industries Cannot Thrive.

Speaking before the gathering Of
business men of Baltimore at a BAN
auet in his honor. Charles M. Schwab
said " No large industry can thrive In
q community unless 1t enjoys the good
will and the support of that commu-
nifty"
That statement is as true Of the
small industry as Of the large indus
try, and 1t is true of the Individual
business man a. well.
Aud there is also truth in the state
ment that the community cannot
thrive which does not give to the indi'
viduals and to the small industries al
well az to the large industries stu
ated therein every encouragement to
growth and expansion.
Cooperation is the life Of the city.
Without 1t there can be no city in the
true sense. There may be an aggre-
cation Of houses, of businesses and OF
people-but that does not make a city
as we know the city today.
The true city Of the twentieth CEN
fury Is a place Of schools, a place Of
churches, a place Of wide and we'll
paved streets, a place Of Fairgrounds
and Of parks, a place Of beauty and q
place Of culture.
It is as well a place where every
mon who is doing his share for the
mutual welfare is receiving his share
Of the credit and the profit; where tho
new industry is given local support IN
the period when that is needed and
still receives that support when II
reaches prosperous maturity; where
the farmer who brings in the produc'
Of his labor may be sure OF a market
ut a price that is fair and just; where
the stranger receives every considers
ton and is not robbed.
In short, the true city Is a plac,
where people can live in happiness ane
contentment, secure in the enjoyment
Of pleasant homes, loyal friends ane
prosperous business conditions-ane
without the spirit of cooperation 1t II
