of Nevada, will act as the bridegroom s
best man.
After brief honeymoon in the West
Captain Emerson said, the couple will
take up their residence at Washington
whore Mr.. Baker will resume his duties
at the Mint.
Engagement Interests Society
In social circles here the announce
mcnt of the engagement created great
interest. Since the tragic loss of her
husband three years ago Mrs. Wander
DllC mas Cdkon no part IN social actlVl-
ties. For long after the sacrifice of the
Lusitania she was prostrated Then
gradually she found recovery in devo-
tion to canteen and Red Cross work
| which, here and in Washington, has
absorbed the greater part of her time
ever since.
Mrs. Vanderbilt, who was originally
Miss Margaret Emerson, noted Balti-
more beauty, whose fathers fortune
was made in the drug business, was
the second wife of Alfred Gwynne Van
derbilt. Their marriage, in Surrey
England, on December IL, 1911, fol-
lowing a double divorce, caused much
talk at the time. Mrs. Vanderbilt
whose first husband was DR.. Smith
Hollins McKim, obtained her decree on
grounds of cruelty, at Reno, in 1910
after years separation. Simultane:
ously Mr.. Vanderbilt was divorced
from his first wife, who was Miss Ellen
French, daughter of Francis Ormond
French. better known in society as
Elsie French.
The proceedings in the Vanderbilt
divorce were held in secret before
David Mcclure as referee, but the
name of Mrs. Agnes Ruiz, wife of An

Cuban Legation at London, leaked out
in connection with the suit Later
Mrs. Ruiz committed suicide and DR.

Hearsfs Papers
In Poughkeepsiie

POUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y, March 3d.
demonstration against the Hearst
newspapers was staged here this morn
ing by members of Company F, 1st
Infantry, New York Guard. Headed
by a bugler, drummer and fifer, fifty
members of the military organization
paraded the streets, visited every news
"American," purchased every available
copy of to-day's issue, and carting the
papers to Market and Church streets,
in front of the State Armory, applied
match to the pile. A crowd of nearly
600 persons witnessed the bonfire and
cheered as the papers went up in
smoke.
While the demonstration was in
progress members of Hamilton -Sleight
Post, G. A. R., came along on their
way from the Poughkeepsie Rural Gene
gave great cheer as Major Lewis G
Deitz and Captain Plummer, two mem
bers of the G. A. R. committee that
headed the public destruction of Hearst
papers in this city a couple of days
after the American" published the
Presidents Memorial Day proclamation
in deleted form, stepped from their
cars and aided the militiamen in the
destruction Of the papers.
Calls of "Speech!" went up from the
young soldiers, and, trembling with
emotion and with tears in their ewes
both men responded. Major Deitz, in
the course of his remarks, said: "I am
glad young America has also joined in
this move to keep out of the city a
paper that has dared to delete the
Presidents Memorial Day proclama-
ton. 1t was a base and unpatriotie
act and should have the condemnation
of every true patriot. This demon
stration to-day is a most fitting one.'
Major Deitz's remarks were greeted
with cheer after cheer, and the audi.
ence stood with barred heads. When
he finished the shouts continued and
Captain Plummer stepped forward

said. 81 hope that the boys will not

railroads at a time when transportation
is essential to protect the hundreds Of

Appeals to Patriotism
"While In the German drive now
going on the sons OF railroad men and
the son of Americans of every class
are dying on the battlefelds of France
to save America and democracy in the
world, shall there be found among us
any man or set Of men, who are un-

II earnestly hope that from one end
of this great land to the other it may
never be said again that any railroad
man. officer or employe was so unpa-
triotic as to strike against his own
government when it is in the midst OF
the most perilous war of all history.

needed for the safety of the country

our government that any of its en-
ployes have attempted a strike against
their government. Such action is in
credible. For the good of our beloved
country and for the honor of railroad
men in the service everywhere, l hope
that there will be no repetition of what
every one must condemn as unpatriotic
in the highest degree.
1.-The government cannot, Of course,
be coerced or intimidated by any of
it's employees. 1t is anxious to do JUS
tice to all, and VIII do justice to all as
far as it is possible to measure justice.
Recognizing that there are probable in
equalities in the recommendation of
the Wage Commission which should be
impartially considered and dealt WITH
| appointed in my general order No.
27, dated May 25, board on railroad
wages and working conditions, COM
posed of three representative labor
men and three representative railroad
men. whose duty it is to hear and pass
upon all petitions and complaints.
Fair Treatment for Workers
every class of employees or parts of
classes of employees who feel that they
have just ground for complaint under
the wage decision should submit their
cases promptly to this board, and they
will be given just and impartial con-
sideration. The American people have
just been called upon to pay largely
increased freight and passenger rates
for the purpose of paying in great part
the increased wages, amounting to more
than $3O0,O00000, awarded to railroad
employees.
Suppose they should strike against
the government because they do not
think they are fairly treated in being
forced to pay these increases for the
benefit of railroad labor. What would
happen to our country? Suppose that
railroad officers should strike because
they dsliked the orders of the govern
ment and should refuse to obey them.

The Scranton, Penn, Camp of the

Immediately following the Memorial
Day parade, in which Company F took
part, fifty or more members assembled
at the State armory and started on
their round of newsstands to gather
up the Hearst papers.
After gathering up all the "Amer-
leans" in sight they marched back to
the state armory. The papers, after
the American flag which adorned one
of the pages was cut out. were thrown
in large pile in front of the armory.
A match was set to them and in few
minutes they were burning briskly. AS
they burned a great shout went up
from the guardsmen which could have
been heard for blocks.

SYSTEM IN WHEAT SAVING.

tanning wheat substitutes should be
avoided 1t might annoy the family

fort harder. There must be a definite
plan OF conservation In order to avoid
the possibility OF say, oatmeal for the
breakfast cereal, oatmeal something
or other for lunch. and oatmeal bread
for dinner-not At all desirable diet
Elimination OF wheat from the
breakfast menu reduces the choice OF
cereals to three-oatmeal, rolled oats
and corn meal These used alternate
ly, with q simple hot dish, bread and
butter or jam, constitute a substantial
breakfast
Lunch always requires bread OF
some kind, mullins, biscuit or cake,
but all Of these should contain a wheat
substitute.
Dinner-Soup always in winter),
plenty OF vegetables, l. e., potatoes
and at least two other vegetables:
salad, II there Is no soup, or a salad
that will replace one vegetable. Des.

In brief, leave corn meal, oatmeal
and rolled oats for breakfast dishes.

OF substitutes for lunch and for din.

They are all enemies of thrift, and

tons this coming twelve months.
Short, simple bills are suggested for

Definite rules are laid down for AL
places where food is sold to be con-
sumed on the premises" They affect
nine million people every day.
No bread Is to be served till the first
course is on the table and then only
two ounces of Victory Bread or muf-

And there is strict Injunction
against burning any waste food which
must be reduced for fats or fed to

A pamphlet which has been issued
to those primarily affected explains
that as the country's resources are no
greater than last year there must be a
further reduction in consumption and
waste OF foodstuffs and OF meats and
fats; that is to say, pork, beef, poul-
try, dairy products and vegetable oil
products. 1t announces that the new
rules will be rigidly enforced by the
State Administrator. Az Mr.. Hoover
says:
I'VE know that the majority of men
In this class Of business will welcome

0UATRY OF COLUMBUS ASKS
rOOD FROM LAND He FOUND

Italy gave to the world the dlscoV
srer OF this great country. America
now gives the land Of Columbus God
and fighting men to aid In the common
battle against arrogance and autOcrac"
The 426th year which marks the
lapse Of time since the discovery OF
America finds these two countries
drawn together to fight common foe,
foe that threatens the future not
only Of the Allied nations but of all
civilization.
Italy had become war weary She
has had to summon all her moral and
material forces 70 keep in the fight.
She needed Americas reinforcement
How keenly she appreciated it When
1t came and how quickly she has
responded to II Ia shown in the fol-
lowing words Of welcome to our boys:
"A cause which by force of It's ideals
has succeeded In drawing to Itself the
aid Of so great a people cannot fail to
triumph"
Americas responsibility does not
end with the sending Of soldiers There
is the further responsibility Of sharing
her food with italy.
Contrast for a moment the follow
ing food conditions:
America is being asked just now to
conflne her beef consumption TO the
lighter cuts Of beef; otherwise there
are no special meat restrictions.
A weekly meat report in Milan
paper during July reads: Meat is 80
scarce that 1t will either have to be
limited to sick people or be sold but
two days in the week-there ia great
scarcity of pork"
In Genoa the new meat regulations
as published in July contain the fol-
lowing items:
THE quantity is limited to 100 grim.
(Thls Is about 3h ounces.)
Take the sugar situation Italy's
sugar ration is but one pound per
person per month, Just half our own.
The Corriere dTtalia of July 8 says:
THE total lack Of sugar in Viterbo
continues. Only very small quantity
is allotted to the city. Even hospitals
and sick people have none"
The use Of sugar beets for any in
dustrial purpose other than the manu-
facture of sugar is forbidden.
Nowhere is the need of sugar as
fuel and energy1giving food greater
than among the italian soldiers where
the war is being carried on in the
cold Of the hazardous Alpine regions.
America has already sent her fight
ers to the Italian front The Amer
lean people must now save food in
order to share with these and with the
soldiers and civilians OF that Country
Of Columbus

The pits from peaches, apricota,

not try to substitute other material
which you think would be Just as good.

SERVE JUST ENOUGH FOOD.

Just enough and no more, is the serv.
ing rule OF all tables just now. The
Food Administration says that the
private family which loads Its table
with unnecessary food either from
daily custom or for entertainment Is a
co-worker with Germany. Extravagant
serving Of food is crime-not only
against the starving millions in Eu-
rope, but against our soldiers and our
Allies at the front"
