A SOLDIERS LETTER FROM
FRANCE

Roy E. Carver of the medical de-
partment. writes in an interesting
way of the food conditions and the
country in France. He says, in part:
The people here buy food only when
they have foed card. If they have
no food card they can't buy. Sol
diers are not allowed to buy food in
a city. They have to buy what ex-
ira food they want in camp where
there is an extra place provided for
that purpose. Then they can buy
only 8 pence worth at a time. Here
is one place where money will not
talk.
Take my tip and tell the people
not to waste food. They don't see
why now, but if they were placed
as these foreign countries are they
would realize it then. You see the
people are allowed only so much so
that the soldiers can have more. We
get good healthy stuff to eat here.
like the war bread better than I do
white bread. 1t is something like
brown bread and sure is nourishing.
We have sugar in our coffee and are
certainly living high for soldiers"

RATS COSTLY EATERS

Experts have estimated that one
rat will consume 40 to so pounds of
food in a year. 1t has also been fig
ured that it requires the continuous
work of about 10000 men with
farms, agricultural implements and
other equipment to supply the food
stuff destroyed annually by rats in
the United States. In addition, rats
destroy other property, mainly of
agricultural origin, the production of
which requires the work of about
$4,000 men. This gives a total of
200, 900 men whose economic out
put is devoted solely to feeding and
otherwise providing for rats.

HONEY USED IN THE home

The sweetening qualities of honey
as a substitute for sugar in foods is
discussed in Farmers Bulletin 653,
issued by the Department of Agri-
culture. The food value, flavor, whole
someness aud economical uses of
honey are thoroughly discussed. The
quantities to be used when honey is
to take the place of sugar are prac-
tically the same, except that a cup
full of honey carries about one-ffth
water, so that much less liquid
should be used in mixtures.
This bulletin also has recipes for
bran, brown bread, steamed brown
bread. honey bread, honey and nut
bran mullins, all of which are made
without wheat flour. Recipes for a
number of honey deserts and can
dies are given, as well az directions
for using honey in preserving.

Protest ! Meetings
Draws Big Crowds
People Demand the Release or Speedy
Trials Of the Interned Sim
j Fein Leaders.

Numerous meetings of protest
against the deportation of the Sim
Fein leaders were held in different
parts of Ireland.
At a Sim Fein meeting in Athy a
resolution was passed denouncing the
seizure of the leaders. Mr.. P. P.
Doyle, u. D. c., called for a public
trial. He asked how could Irishmen
be called on to fight for the freedom
of Poles and Slavs while denied lib
erty in their own country.
A meeting in Mullingar was ad-
dressed by Mr. George D. Rea.
Longford Board of Guardians con-
demned the action of the Government,
and a public meeting in the Temper
ance Hall passed resolution Of pro-
test. Posters calling the meeting are
stated to have been torn down by the
police. Public meetings in Killashee
and Clondra condemned "the seizure
and kidnapping" of the leaders as a
crime against liberty.
Swinford Guardians entered a
strong protest, and speeches were de-
livered at a meeting in Mullingar by
the Rev. j. w. Meehan, administra-
tor: DR.. A. MacBride, and Mr.. M. La
velle.
The Very Rev. T. Dunno, admins
traitor, presided at public meeting
in Loughrea. A detachment of mill
tary, with the local police, was pres
ent.
The Rev. DR.. O'Meehan, G. c., Kin
vara, said the attitude of Sim Fein
was to demand the immediate and un-
conditional release of the prisoners,
not their trial. Their crime was not
that they were pro-German, but that
they were pro-Irish. Conscription, he
said, was not dead.
The Rev. w. Cawley, Gort, also
spoke, and Mr.. P. Hogan, B. A., solici-
tor, said the fundamental principle of
criminal law was that a man should
be tried by his peers. Therefore no
jury but an Irish jury had right to
try the prisoners.
Meetings were also held in Donegal,
Derry, Dungloe, Omagh, Dregish (near
Omagh), Cronagh (Plumbridge), Drum
quin, Dromore, Greencastle, Fintona

MUST USE LESS SUGAR:
ALLIED NEEDS GROW
Americans Asked to Use No More Than
Two Pounds Per Person
Per Month.
Shortage May Last Until Beginning of 1919
When New Sugar Crop Arrives.

After making careful survey of the
world sugar situation the U. S. Food
Administration has asked the Ameri-
can public to USE NO MORE THAN
TWO POUNDS OF SUGAR PER PER-
SON A MONTH until January 1, 1919.
Increased sugar demands from the
Allied nations-where the present sug-
ar ration Is already reduced to the
lowest possible level-and the need Of
keeping our army and navy supplied
are two. Of the leading causes of the
curtailment Of Americas sugar ration.
Americans are requested to make
two pounds of sugar per person (half
pound weekly serve for all sugar
uses in the Notwithstanding cook
ing and all sugar served at the table.
Public eating places, as we'll as
housewives, will be required to limit
their use of sugar to two pounds for
every ninety meals served. In the
U. s. Food Administrations cafeteria
at Washington, where employees of the
Food Administration take their noon
meal, one pound of sugar is used for
every 12O meals served.
The U. S. Food Administration is
confident that the American public will
heartily agree to reduce household use
of sugar here to level more nearly
equal to the present restrictions
among the Allied nations.

States faces in its efforts to maintain

Cardinal Gibbons
$50 Years a Bishop

Washington, D. c., Aug. S.-August
10th is the 50th anniversary of Car

Fifty years will have passed since
August 16, 1868, when as Father Glib
bons in the Cathedral of Baltimore
where he had been baptized, raised
to the priesthood and at whose altar
he has offered up the Holy Sacrifice
of the Mass, he was consecrated
Bishop.
Still the Golden Jubilee of the epis-
copacy Of the Cardinal will not be
celebrated until the latter part of
October, when hundreds of priests and
prelates from this and foreign coun-
tries, members of religious orders and
congregations, students and semi
narians, and distinguished laymen will
assist in the festivities, the program
of which is now being arranged.
At the celebration of the Cardinals
Silver Jubilee in 1898, besides repre-
sentatives of Pope Leo XIII and Of the
episcopates of England, France, Ire
land, Canada and Oceanica, nearly
every See in the United States was
represented. In addition the promi-
nent laymen of the country attended.
Bishop Gibbons was the youngest of
757 Bishops who attended the Ecumen-
ical Council of the Vatican, presided
over by Pope Plus TX at Rome, in
1869.

Supreme Convention at the Waldorf

show that the total membership of the

gross increase in the membership of

the Knights of Columbus is growing

unique among the fraternal orders of
America.
