SYMBOLS OF SUGGESTIVE OUNCE OF COOPERATION

we set out with such energy last spring
to produce.
Unless our eyes deceive us, there are
more gardens in this country to-day
than ever were before. In spite of all
the gardens that have failed for lack of
wedding or because the first impulse
gave out, large numbers have been car
ried through to highly productive
point.
But all of the energy that has been
put into them will be lost if what is
raised is not used And in hundreds of
cases it cannot be used unless there is
some sort of cooperative effort to take
care of the crop.
From all parts of the country we are
hearing the wall that gardeners who re-
sponded to the country's cry for more
product are unable to sell or use their
truck; that things are wasting for lack
of place to put them.
Too late at many points we are seeing
that what we failed to grasp was that
the ounce of cooperation must be mixed
with the ounce of energy if we were 60
ing to have the proper results.
1t is fine proof of the spirit which
animates the country that on all sides
methods of taking care Of this wasting
crop began to be devised as soon as the
need was understood
In all parts of the country women of
various societies who have combined
themselves under the Woman's Commit
tee of the Council of National Defence
are working out practical schemes of
taking care of the material which has
not already been destroyed.
In several states the women working
under this committee have established
food centres. They have in these GEN.
tres not only means for canning goods,
but for selling and exchanging. They
have established auto corps, and lively
little cars are running through the dis
tricts belonging to a centre collecting
everything that the farmer and gar

There is no doubt at all that the ma.
iority of us at this time have made up
our minds that we must stop all wastage
of bread and energy, but, unless we get
into the habit of doing this together
that is, of using the ounce of co0pera-
tion-the results are going to fall far
short Of our calculations.
We are having striking Illustration
of the essential nature Of cooperation
in the way we have been bungling the
enormous crop Of green vegetables that

where there was nothing to read and the few
games and packs of cards were monopolized
by selfish people who apparently never left
them by night or day?
Any one of these situations is bad enough,
but take all three together and add to that
the discomforts of spending goodness knows
how many days crowded like sardines into
wretched transport, and you may have some
little conception of what our soldiers have
suffered on their way TO France.
Women all over the country have been knit
ting away like mad on garments for the men
in the trenches; but of what use will these be
to the men if they get their "never-get-over-
it" on the way over?
We want our men to reach the front in the
first-class fighting condition which they were
in when they marched aboard the transports.
So not only for their own personal comfort,
but for the efficiency of that splendid army
that is going over to end the war and make
the world safe for democracy" we must look
to it that they are properly clothed for that
long, cold voyage.
In the stress of doing a thousand other
things for the help and comfort both of the
men in the training camps here and in the
trenches cover there" we seem to have for
gotten the link between the two-the long sea
voyage on overcrowded ships, where the men
are exposed TO all sorts of winds and weather
Heaps of harm besides the submarine danger
can come to our men in transit; harm of the
kind which we can for the greater part pre-
vent. And surely "an ounce of prevention is

itself the contract to fit out every man in the
Rainbow Division now encamped at Camp

This is "hurry-up' call-no one has any
idea how much of hurry, for no one know,
when the first contingent will sail. .
The league has published the fact in the
newspapers and by hundreds of posters dis

When such a vital question as
that of food supply is before our
minds and staring us in the face
it is imperative that we give our
best thoughts and efforts to doing
what we can to conserve our share
Of food in this great national
crisis. 1t is for the housewife to
keep a vigilant eye on the work
ings of her kitchen. She may not
be able to go out in the fields to
raise food but she can see that not
one ounce is wasted, through her
task of preparing it for the table.
Some housewives are guilty of
greater extravaganza than others.
The ways of wasting given below
may not be your ways of being ex-
travagant but they will perhaps
suggest ways to you in which you
might be more careful and econo-
rlical.
/. In farm homes too many
kinds of foods are often served at
one meal. Sometimes as many as
four vegetables are served at
once. Eggs, cheese and beans
have been found on some tables,
the housewife at the same time
wondering how she can be more
economical. She argues that they
are grown or produced on the
farm, but they could be preserved
for winter use. Only one protein
food should be served at meal
2. Do not throw away leftovers
They may be used in croquettes,
scalloped dishes or the nutritious,
much abused hash. By combining
leftovers one good dish may be the
result.
3. Tough meats and vegetables
should not be thrown away, they
are valuable in the making of
stocks and soups. The hard ends
Of asparagus when cooked so as to
draw out the flavor are far from
useless and should not be thrown
in the garbage pail.
4. The scorching of fat develops
acid and makes it unfit for human
food.
5. Fat which escapes down the
drain pipe is lost forever. When
one remembers that a grain of fat
produces nine colories of heat. this
is serious waste.
6. Water, in which vegetables
are cooked. should not be thrown
away. Potato water for instance,
might be used in bread. Others
might we'll be employed in soups.
Z. Expensive food materials,
providing little nourishment,
should not be purchased when the
money is needed for so many
other things. This might we'll ap-
ply in other than war time. but it
is especially true now. In this
connection foods out of season
the family may be fond of short
cake it would be the height of ex-
travagance to buy Strawberries in
January at so cents per quart to
meet such a desire.
8. On farms where applies are
going to waste, pairing them for
serving and stiringing on strings
TO dry, is a successful means of
preservation and especially help
ful when all fruit cans are full and
other containers are hard to find.
8. Is your oven in first class
order? Bad construction is the
cause of many failures in baking.
If your cakes are not successful
look into the matter and see if
faulty stove does not have some
thing to do with it.

1 fair of Jerry Carson and Leontine ! Walcott. The story in brief is as fol- lows:
 Jerry Carson, American novelist, while in the Bahamas finds a mes sage in a bottle washed up by the sea, signed by Joseph Dexter, recog- nized as master of synthetic chem istry. It states that Dexter has found the treasure of Sir Henry Morgan, the buccaneer, on the South Atlantic rock, known as Ravengar Ledge Much against the wish of his sweet. heart, Leontine Walcott, Jerry starts ort from Porto Delgado to seek this treasure
 Leontine also is wooed by Sebas. tian Navarro, an ArSentino, who promises to be true to Jerry.
 On it's voyage, the Portland Girl takes fire and Jerry is the only one saved
 John Walcott, Leontine's father disapproves of Jerry, and favors Se- bastian's suit. Walcott's business affairs are in bad shape and as Se- bastlan is wealthy man, he hopes to wed his daughter to the Argen- tillS ttilu tuuS secure luG luOHGy lle needs.
 Later when the report is spread that the Portland Girl has been lost with all hands, Walco1t tries to per suade Leontine to marry Sebastian. Jerry picked up hy tramp ship from the rock on which he had landed is put ashore near Porto Delgado and makes his way to that place. He reaches Leontine's home just as Diego Navarro, Sebastian's brother. is tell ing her that Jerry had borrowed money from his brother which he had failed to return after selling the property pledged for the loan. He shows her a supposed receipt for large sum advanced by Sebastian to Jerry. This document was forged by one Lamp Louie. The signature does not deceive Leontine who de- fends her sweetheart. Jerry at this moment appears in person and is welcomed by Leontine. He tries to

Today-William S. Hart has put over another big hit in "The Return of Draw Egan,' Triangle-Kay Bee feature. It is another big Western picture, in which MT. Hart plays the role of a bad man of the West, who finally comes to turning in the road. The opportunity presents it. self to him to reform and make good. He seizes it and is succeeding with a vengeance when a Nemesis in the person of one of his pals of the time when he was known far and wide as a bad man appears on the scene.
 As the story is developed MT. Hart rises to heights of rare dramatic ability when he finally risks the love of the girl, the respect of his neigh- bors and even his freedom in order to quiet once and for all those who would drag him down again to the level from which he has risen.
 Louise Glaum, as girl of the town. plays convincingly and incidentally, has the opportunity to depart some what from her usual role of vam- pire. Margery Wilson, as the girl with whom the bad man falls in love, is excellent. Robert McKim, as Ari- zona Joe. the bad man who pursues Draw" Pagan, gives a touch of realism to the part that goes to make the picture the excellent one it is.
