NO POLITICAL PROMOTIONS

The war department has issued a notice to the men at some of the army camps warning them not to task for army promotions through political influence. Politics is so> in grained in American life that 1t is a natural thing that some of our army boys should seek this way of getting ahead.
 It has been the principle that when anyone wants anything within the gift of his government, he should "See' his Congressman He thinks it is not necessary for him to perfect himself in the line in which he is seeking an opportunity, if he has po- 1itfca1 pull.
 That thing may go in civil life, but fortunately it has no great influence in the army and is not likely to. The army men do not want officers who obtained their positions through friendship. They want. the best tal- ent there is. When a fellow begins to pull wires, it will look as if he knew he couldn't get by on merit

BENSON LECTURES
 AT HIGH SCHOOL
Back from He'll"

BaCk rom He'll.
 That is the way Samuel Cranston Benson, veteran ambulance driver in France, feels about returning from the fighting front. And he fst going to tell Bridgeport about 1t tomorrow night at the High school auditorium.
 MT. Benson isn't profane in his comparison of the fighting front with Hell, for as a matter of fact 1t is "the Reverend' s. c. Benson who Is doing the talking When the war broke out, he was an American clergyman. Promptly he went abroad to serve as an ambulance driver. He saw the feld-gray troops swoop into Belgium; the Germans seized him the same men who executed Edith Cavell tied the white handkerchief over his eyes and raised their guns, when--but that's MT. Benson's story.
 Anyway, he's such ratt1ing good speaker, and his story of the war is so hair-raising. so graphic. and car- ries such patriotic message that some prominent Bridgeport men have induced him to come here to- morrow and give his talk in public, without any admission fee. His talk will begin at 8 p. m. and everybody is invited.

Following a

London, Nov. 15 Following a storm of criticism aroused by his speech in Paris criticising the course of the Allies in the war and his an- nouncement of the formation of an inter-Aljied War Council, Premier Lloyd George in the House of Con- mons last night read the agreement made by the British, French and Italian governments for the council. The agreement follows:
 With a view to better -ordina- ton of the military action on the western front, a supreme war council is created, composed of the Prime Minister and a member of the gov ernment of each of the great powers whose armies are fighting on that front, the extension of the scope of the council to other fronts to be re- served for discussion with the other great powers.
 2-The Supreme War Council has for its mission to watch over the gen era1 conduct of the war. It prepares recommendations for the considera- tion of the governments and keeps itself informed of their execution and reports thereon to the respective governments.
 3-The general staff and military commands of the armies of each power charged with the conduct of the military operations remain re- sponsihle to their respective govern. ments.

GREAT NECESSITY FOR USE OF CORN IN THIS COUNTRY

Herbert Hoover, Food Administra- tor, has forwarded to the Committee of Food Supply of the State Council of Defence, a pamphlet on grain and live stock production which Is of i'm mense value because of the study and research back of it.
 He finds that the total import re- quirements of wheat for 1917 on the part of our allies will be 577 1000. 900 bushels, to meet which the United States and Canada can ofer only 130,000,000 bushels unless our own consumption of wheat shall be re- duced. Hence the necessity of sub- stituting corn for wheat in our home consumption. Argentine. Australia and India cannot supply the need be- cause of their distance and the scar- city of ships. We must grow more wheat next year for even in the iru- probable event of a basic price of $2.00 is guaranteed by the United States government
 Europe is slaughtering her cattle partly for food but chiefly because of a. shortage in fed. We have one of the largest corn crops in our history, very little of which can be exported. Hence the obvious reason, as well as the necessity why we should increase our herds particularly the beef cat tie strains.
 The same reasoning applies to sheep with the added emphasis that sheep will thrive where cattle cannot and there is and for long time swill be grave scarcity of wool. The in- crease in sheep must come largely from the eastern states.
 Most important of all is the supply of animal fats from swine. This MT. Hover refers to as a critical necessity. Since the war began, our consump
 tion~ of pork products has jumped from 72 per cent. to 75 A per cent. of our hog production and our slaughtering from S6 per cent to 96 per cent. Swine are prolific. MT. Hover urges their rapid increase. He says "We need a Keep-A-Pip move ment in this country-and a properly cared-for pig is no more unsanitary than dcg.'
 The seriousness of the world food shortage cannot be overstated, Food will win the war" The absence of food will lose the war and with it all we have and are.

Whoever wishes may now eat from a golden dish. Some wizard in glass and porcelain has taken to applying gold, "acid-etch- ed" in most wonderful de- signs. Often the plate, dish, cream jug or bowl looks like solid gold, etched in fine designs, the whole af- fair reminding one of the fine patterns on Benarese brass. A crystal bowl for cream or mayonnaise is clear and beautiful except for a broad band of gold at the top. A low fruit bowl has a similar wide gold band and a finely cut star in the bottom of the crystal. One immediately plans to fill the bowl with sliced oranges, red rasp- berries, or stewed quinces, the syrup of the fruit com ing exactly to the gold band.
