recipes with other fats; whipped cream desserts

( Railroads ask increase of freight rates, be-
cause many Of the weaker roads are facing ruin
Such increase means higher cost. of living and
railroad labor justifiably asks higher wages.
Then the railroads pray for another increase of
rates. 1t is a wheel in which the public goes
round and round, paying more and more as it
goes.
This is the American railroad situation, in
nutshell, and it is the situation in respect of
many Of the great industries. 1t was the railroad
situation in Great Britain until the British gov
eminent took hold of the problem, early in the
war. That government took absolute control Of
the railroads, consolidated them, guaranteed the
same dividends as those Of 1913, invested in inn
provements for which it will be reimbursed when
the roads are restored to the owners, and provid-
ed for automatic increases in wages to meet the
rise in cost of living.
1t is to this British plan that Washington
seems inclined to resort in respect of our rail-
roads, and, if it works as to this our greatest in
dustry, there will be demand to try it on the in
dustries producing war essentials. It is pretty
safe to say that strike other halt of production
in "copper" lumber or fuel regions would not long
continue should government commander, with
agreement to pay dividends Of 1913.

AN S WE RS |
BY CYNTHI la 81 REV

Dear Miss Grey: Yes, we
used to have a "superfluous"
father in our home. He came
in from work, tired and cross.
In the evenings he was so nerv-
Gus and fretful that the chill
dren were afraid to talk above
a whisper and a laugh brought
stern commands to Keep still"
We didn't like it, the children
nor I. We wanted him to take
us to the movie at night, and to
60 out to parties with us and to
be bright and jolly in the even
ings.
But he wasn't. He was cross
and irritable, finding fault with
what we did and what we didn't
do. Nothing seemed to please
him. The children got so they
dreaded his homecoming. 1t
meant no more laughter or play
for them that day and often
many seedlings. And IL will
be quite frank about tt was
happier when he was at work
than when he was home.
Now 1t is all so different.
The children and can laugh
as loudly and rs long as we
will-but we don't want to.
We can make all the noise we
wish day or evening, but we
are silent. Father never fumes
