IF YOU AvGISTERED FOR THE DRAFT WATCH
THIS SPA rE DAILY FOR YOUR SERIAL NUMBER

Here II might be explained that
while 10 tEo men in the same dis
trict will be assigned the same mum
Der, yet two men or even as many
as six men, in the territory may have
the same serial number. Thus. for
example. as there are six districts,
two in Oahu two On Hawaii and one
each on Maui and kauai. a registrant
on Mani. Kauai, one in each district
on Hawaii and one in each district
on Oahu. may have the same serial
number, for instance SOC. Thus If 300
Is drawn it means that each man in
each district. who has been assigned
the number 800, is called 10 the ser
vice.
Necessarily the publication of 1000
names is an undertaking that will eX-
tend over many days. Just as soon as
the tabulation of names and serial
numbers are completed by the draft
board Of which Maj. Francis !. Green
is chairman. the names will be
turned over to the Star-Bulletin which
will at once begin to get them into
type.
II sou want to know your serial
number arrange to get the Star-Bul-
letin now.

tory. the Star Bulletin will endeavor to
accomplish what may be said to be
the biggest newspaper feat recorded
IN the history OF the islands.
To publish 1900 names with the
h Sal number Of each will require p
to. newspaper pages of printed mat
ter. 70 make the type hundreds OF
pouna of metal will be required to
get the names in print, and hours OF
extra effort will be expended on the
part of the editorial, mechanical and
composing room force OF the Star
Bulletin.
But with the $1,000 names and ser
ial numbers published in systematic
order. divided according to islands and
districts. each registrant can ascer-
tain at glance, his draft number
and on the day OF the drawing OF
these numbers, will know his num-
Der. IL he be drawn or not.
BY the serial number is meant the
number assigned to each registrant.
On the day OF the drawing some =.
900 capsules each containing a num-
Der will be drawn from a receptacle.
IL the number 800 Is drawn it means
that each registrant whose number is
500 il called to service.

Leave 1t to the President.

LOW little real basis there was for the
l 1 suggestion that President Wilson would
be unwilling 10 accept or exercise RESPONSE
bility for decreeing total or limited national
prohibition. was apparent to The Times
Dispatch before the President had said any
thing about ii. That he would refuse to
take this or any other responsibility essential
70 the efficient conduct OF the war, was un-
belicvabis by any one with a real conception
o. the character of the man.
Now. however. Mr.. Wilson has made his
attitude Gear. He is opposed TO the total
prohibition OF the manufacture OF beer and
light wines. by congressional enactment. at
AiS time. He believes tina. the menace TO
the industrial security of the country, in
volved III such sweeping and drastic action,
forbids the risk. He is willing TO have the
power to declare total prohibition contded
10 him--and mono will question that, on just
grounds. this power will he exercised.
Tho compromise the President urges prob
ably Will be effected, for dispatches from
Washington indicate that men of all shades
Of opinion. in both Senate and House, are
confessing the essential sanity OF his posi-
ton, There are reasons 10 believe that it
Will be agreed TO by large numhers. AT least,
Of convinced and ardent prohibiiionists.
From he first The Times-Dispatch has in
sisted that this prohibition amendment to
the food control bill. like the food control
hill itself, should be considered strictly on
its merits as . war measure. The amend
ment was offered and urged as a means OF
bringing victory nearer. and on any other
theory has no proper place in the legislation
now under discussion. The food regulations.
as they define the Presidents duty. are per-
missiye. rather than mandatory. They do
not direct him 10 tx prices, or commander
supplies. or forbid speculation. but authorize
him. in his discretion. to take these steps.
Herbert c. Hoover. who is 10 be the Presi-
dents representative in tho actual administra-
ton OF the faw. has said time and again he
does not believe il Will he necessary TO
utilize many OF the more radical grants of
power. Their very existence will be suf-
ticient, in his judgment, 10 prevent most OF
the evils against which they are aimed.
The suggested plan for dealing with beer
and light wines follows. therefore. the gem
eral policy that the measure adopts as its
own. Il Is the sensible policy. Ii it shall
appear az any later day that national pro-
hibi,ion Will help the nation 10 win the war.
the President will have every requisite au-
thority. He Will act, in such a case. on
the advice OF men intimately acquainted with
all the facts.
In this whole matter. The Dispatch
has but one iateresl-yictorv in the great
struggle il which the nation is enga ged.
That Is the Presidents interest. and should
be the interest OF every patriotic American.

Little Talks on Thrift
BY s. w. SrRAUS.
President American Society for
Thrift.

Economy in the home can be effect
ed both through the elimination OF
waste and through the utilization OF
foods to the best possible advantage.
One of the most expensive features
Of the family food bill is meat. Most
Americans eat too much meat. Also
there is a tendency to buy the more
expensive cuts and tho amount OF waste
is heavy.
The United States Department of
Agriculture points out that where meat
has been purchased by telephone or
orders TO n butchers boy. personal
shopping and careful selection may
make a saving possible. In purchas-
ing the cheaper and often tougher cuts
of meat instead of the choicer ones.
little IL any nutriment is lost.
II cheaper steaks are purchased. n
degree of tenderness may be Impaired
to them by the well-known method OF
pounding the meat. The juices and
navors of such steaks will be retained
more satisfactorily if -four is sprinkled
over them during the beating process
and SO worked into the fbers en- the
surface.
Tougher meats also may he ground
UP. formed into balls and broiled like
steak.
Cheap cuts OF meat may he cooked
slowly with vegetables or dumplinss
In a casserole or any OtToT MT wan
ed baking dish which may be covered.
The juice thereby being retained.
An important way in which the
amount of money expended for meat
may be lessened is by preparing small
quantities of meat in such 4 way AS
to extend it's flavor to other and cheap
err foods.
1t may be ground and combined with
rice or breadcrumts. to form cro1uettes
made into pies with relatively large
quantities Of pastry, cooked with dump
iinEs. served in the same dish with
gravy and starchy foods. u as spa
ghetti or rice; ground and used with
breadcrumbs or other materials. as a
stufing for vegetables. or cut Thin and
wrapped around a stuffing of bread
crumbs, rice, or vegetables.
Leftover fat may be tried out by
grinding or %chopping and heating in
a double boiler. The tried-out fat
then may he boiled in water and al
lowed to solidify OIL the surface OF
the water when the latter cools. impur-
tiles being scraped from the under sur
face OF the cake. Trimmings of lear
meat, gristle and bone may he boiled
slowly and used for SOUP stock.
