For Needy Babies

Editor Tulsa World. Dear Ed
itor: The people Of our city are
proud OF The World for the in
terest manifested along all lines
to the good OF our city, and to
the writer's way OF thinking
there is no cause more worthy
than the Babys Empty Stocking
Fund especially at this time of
the year. We doubt if there is a
man or woman in the city of
Tulsa thai does not appreciate
your effort in tn" interest of the
babies, ana il is a safe PROPOSE
tiOn to say that there is not Il
man or woman in the city of
Tulsa that will not contribute if
approached on the subject.
\ few days since a friend of
the babies gave a few moments
time in presenting the cause to
the people in the Bliss building,
and every man spoken to was
only too willing to donate. over
S2l was handed to The World.
and We are sure there are many
people in each one of the larger
buildings of our city that will
contribute If some kind friend
of the babies will give the matter
just a few moments time. At
least why not one person i'm each
building pass paper, and if this
is done, many little babies will
have their stockings filled. and
their hearts gladdened. that 9TH
erwisc will not cheer the home
with the smile that should be in
evidence on every baby's face in
Tulsa ON Christmas morning.

 News has arrived that the Mid night Sun Packing Co. this season past has put up 250 tons of salmon, some salted and others case goods, The cargo is to be shipped outside on the COrdova and is valued at $3O,O00. The company had a very successful season and bought up all the salmon that they could lay their hands on. Natives instead Of dry ing the fish for their own use or the market sold it to the company. On this account there is said to be the probability of there being a shortage in dog salmon during the winter. Several tons were usually consumed in Nome from this source of supply in past years.

AMERICA AND FRANCE.

The presence OF French commits
sioners in Washington with the
prospect that in the near future
Ap.eiica will render substantial as
sistance to France in this war,
gives renewed interest to the part
taken by France in the American
struggle for independence. 1t is
not to be presumed that the aid
given by France to the American
colonies was wholly unselfish. 1t
was hatred for the English rather
than love for the Americans that
influenced French action. but the
aid was none the less important.
and il it had not been for the help
France gave the war for Indcpend-
cnce might have had a different re-
suit. The verdict of history has
been that America owes a debt
of gratitude to France, and no one
will seek to question that verdict
at this late day.
In l776 Arthur lie of Virginia,
oelhg me! I'D london, made such
rreresen9a'. to the French Am
bass>ror there that arrangements
were made to send to America. un-
der puise of purchase from 4 French
arms and munitions to
the value of 100000. These we're
sent bv way of the West Indies,
and included 200 canon and mo-
tars and a supply OF small arms
from the French ~arsenals, 4,o0
tents and clothing for 10000 men.
There was some dispute a. &c
whether these materials were gwen
loaned or sold to the Americans.
and il was not until 1885 that the
claim was settled nv the pa, ment
of 100000 by the American ON
press to the heirs of Pierre Beau
marchais, who acted as agent for
the French minister of foreign af-
fairs.

and Washington invited him to We

war he was the close personal
friend of the American commander
and the faithful supporter Of the
American cause on the battlefields
Of this country and in the court Of

May 20, 1884, His service to Amer
lea was wholly without selfishness,
either personal or political.
1t is not primarily love for France
or for the French people that
prompts the service that America
is about to render to the French
republic, yet there are doubtless
many thousands of Americans who
will be glad of the opportunity to
pay back the long-standing debt of
international friendship to the ma
ton of Lafayette.

It is the intention of the state adj
min'stration to i've right up to the
militia law of the United States and
maintain a reserve battalion of about

A SLICE OF BREAD.

A single slice of bread seems ar
unimportant thing. In many house.
holds one or more slices of bread
daily are thrown away and not used
for human food. Sometimes stale
quarter-or half-loaves are thrown
out.
Yet one good-sized slice of bread
such as a child likes to cut-weighs
on ounce. 1t contains almost "a OF
an ounce of flour.
II every one of the country's TO-
10000 homes wastes on the average
only one such slice of bread a day
the country is throwing away daily
! over 100000 ounces of flour-over
$4,000 pounds, or enough flour for
over a million l-pound loaves a day
For a full year at this rate there
would be a waste of over 3l9,0OO,O0C
pounds of flour-l 100000 barrels OF
flour-cnough to make 365,000,0OC
loaves.
As II takes 4 IL bushels of wheat
to make a barrel of ordinary flour
this w'ste would represent the flour
from over 100000 bushels of wheat,
Fourteen and ninc-tcnths bushels
of wheat on the average are raised
per acre. 1t would take the fruit of
some 10000 acres Just to provide a
single slice of bread to be wasted
daily in every home.
To produce this much flour calls
for an army of farmers, railway
men, flour-mill people. To get the
fo"r to the consumer calls for many
freight cars and the use of many
tons Of coal.
But. some one says. a full slice of
bread is not wasted in every home.
Very wel'-make it a daily slice for
every four or every ten or every
thirty homes-make a weekly or
monthlv slice in every home-or
make the wasted slice thinner The
waste of flour involved is still an
palling-altogether too great to be
tolerated when wheat is scarce.
hrv w"ste Of bread is ~inexcusab1e
when there are so manv WAYS of
using stale bread TO cook delicious
diehes.
The u. {. Department of Agricul-
't"re, WASHINGTON. d c.. or vorr
State agricultural college will tell
vo" how to use stale bread in many
ways.
