this country and 100000 in France is
daily increasing the problems of the
Home Service department which
worked with 1913 families during
May in the Southern division alone.
Realizing the necessity for trained
workers in this field, the Red Cross
has established Institutes for train
ing in the larger cities, and now is
offering these information courses and
lectures in cooperation with the larg-
or colleges and universities, in order
to reach not only women who wish
to go into Home Service work, but
those who are interested in social and
civic betterment in their communities
and who, while not planning to par
ticipate either as volunteer or salaried
workers in such, may nevertheless
wish to learn something of its pur-
pose and problems
The course at the University of
Georgia will consist of eighteen lec-
lures, interviews and collateral read
ing, and included such subjects as the
field of Home Service, the normal
family, health, home economics, child
welfare, the fundamental methors
welfare, the fundamental methors of
Home Service, the employment of
women and children in relation to the
war, the re-education and re-adjust-
ment of the disabled, the unstable
family, the war risk insurance act,
the personal factor in dealing with
families, the racial equa-
ton, the community resources of
Home Service, the use of other
agencies in Home Service, and the
qualifications and responsibilities of
the Home Service worker. Anyone
desiring further information about
this course may communicate with DR..

The above is the program which
the housewife will be asked to fol-
low in carrying out the new rulings
in regard to the use of the allowance
of beef as given out yesterday morn
ing by Food Administrator Mangum.
Mr. Mangum as member of the Unit
ed States food administration. has the
power to designate the meals at which
the beef allowance may be eaten.
The program is the result of an
attempt by the federal government to
keep our fighting men in trim. The
soldiers require an enormous amount
of meat and the civilian population

of it may go to the soldiers
Locally there has been no COM
plants heard concerning the new or
der. Everyone who has expressed
himself has stated that if they can
help the boys in khaki and check
the Hun advance by doing without
meat they are perfectly willing to do
this. Although the restaurant men
have been hard hit they accept the or
der with the same patriotic spirit
shown by the householders.
The attention of all grocers is call
ed by Mr. Mangum to that section of
the sugar conservation order which
requires them to ascertain from each
customer whether or not he or she
had on that day made sugar purchas-
es at other stores. Unless this is
done, states Mr. aMngum, disloyal
persons will dodge the law by buying
sugar at several places on the same
day. It is compulsory on the part of
lall dealers to have the facts in hand
before filling sugar orders. Failure
to comply with this duty will neces-
sarily embarrass the delinquents.

TEACH LESSONS
  LAW MUST RULE AMONG NATIONS
Sec. Houston Tells Bankers of Iowa No Way Out of
 War Except Through It.,

Dubuque, Ia., June 20-American food stocks, increasing because of the effort of farmers, were classed as an additional guaranty of the successful outcome of the war by Secretary of Agricultural Houston in an address today before the Iowa Bankers As- sociation. Along with his presenta- tion of figures summarizing agricul- tural accomplishment, he called upon the residents of cities and towns to see that bountiful harvests promised do not waste because of labor short age. Of the war itself he said ''there is no way out of this grim business except through it.'
 This war will not be won by miracle or by enchantment," he added. There can be no turning back, no faltering, no hesitation. We are determined to teach the lesson that law must rule among nations as among individuals and to establish guarantees for future peace and the prevention of recurrence of such a calamity as this"
 As to the agricultural effort during 1916, Secretary Houston said the American farmers had responded heartily to the call of the Allied pop ulations for food.
 Farmers planted 23,000,00O acres more in leading food crops in 1917 than in 1916," he said. "They greatly l increased the number of live stock in spite of expectations. They increas- ed the number of milch cows by 39O,- | 900, of other cattle by nearly 2,0O0,- 900, the number of sheep, for the first time in a generation and a half, by 1,300,0O0, and of swine by nearly 100000. In spite of exportations of horses and mules they increased the number of 454,0OO. The indications are tkat they will do better even this year."
 We shall not fail to win the war because of food shortage" he said. "and I need not point out to bankers the large bearing of this enormous production. It is matter of patriot ism and business for you to omit no effort to help in the matter of labor supply. This duty is of the most ur- gent and impelling character in this crisis.''

RHEIMS DEFEAT SHOWS HUN ARMY
 IS EXHAUSTED

Paris, June 20 - The sanguinary defeat suffered by the Germans be- fore Rheims is pointed to by the morning newspapers as an excellent augury for the Allies in the operations to come, The military experts, the Havas agency notes, are displaying particular satisfaction over the out come, regarding it as further proof of the exhaustion of the crown princes army. which is showing itself incapa- ble of prolonged effort.
 The commentators, however. do not seek to minimize the ability display ed by the defenders, and they point particularly to the remarkable ar tillery barrage fire, the notable re- sistance of the infantry and the ire sistible counter attacks of the brave colonial troops under Gen. Gouraud.
 Never did so important an attack fail so completely" the Petit Journal remarks.

WARN AGAINST WAR OUTLAY.

London, June 20-A note of warn ing against increased war expendi- lures is sounded by the Chronicle and the Daily News in their comment on the statements made by Andrew Be- mar Law, Chancellor of the Exche- quer, in moving vote of credit in the House of Commons yesterday. Other papers do not question the huge out lay.
 We are getting our moneys worth," says the Express. It adds that the Allies Took forward to another three months of insistent anxiety"
 The Daily News says: "The sinister fact is the indifference that prevails on the subject. The treasury long since ceased to exercise control; Par liament offers nothing with which to dam the tide. The governments idea of getting on with the war does not include any considerations of economy"

UKRAINE REVOLT
 LED BY 4O,OOO WELL ARMED MEN

London June 20.---A general revolt rages in Kieff, capital of the Ukraine, and is spreading through the Poltava and Shernigoff districts, the Exchange Telegraph's Moscow correspondent cables.
 In the Poltava district 4000O armed volunteers are leading the revolt. In Kieff there is continuous fighting and thousands of civilians are fleeing from the city.
 Copenhagen despatches yesterday said the Bolshevfki in western Siberia have been overthrown by counter revolutionary forces, who have formed new government, supported by the Czech -Slovaks according to Petrograd despatches published in German news papers,
 The counter revolutionists have captured Omask, Samara and Nova ! Nikolavski, it was reported. Premier Lenine is mobiliZing Bol- shevik troops along the Volga river and in the Ural mountains, the des- patches said. Washington, June 20.---Petrograd is experiencing a reign of terror, accord | ing to information reaching this gov ernment Food is at a premium, sickness is general and almost all signs of order and law have disap- peared in the wild situation which has developed.
 According to resolution adopted ! by the Petrograd shop stewards com mittees, day and night, in the streets and in houses, murders occur, carried out not only by criminals, but also by responsible agents of the Soviet government
 | Murders are committed in the guise of fighting the counter revolu- tion and the victims belong not only to the enemies of the people, but very frequently to the most peaceful class of citizens, workers, students, peas ants and soldiers.
 | Murders are committed without any inquiry or trial, deliberately and coldly, and in the name of the revo- lutionary pToletariat.
 We, the representatives of the Petrograd working class, before the entire people of Russia, proclaim that these murders are polluting the honor of the revolution, of democracy and socialism. We repudiate with indig- nation all responsibility for these san bguinary deeds, which form a stain upon our socialist banner.
 I've call upon all workers and upon all honest citizens to join us in our protest and demand a public trial of the authors of these bestialities and murders"
 Ambassador Francis recently re- turned to Vologda from a visit to Petrograd, where he went to investi- gate conditions. It is understood that he has made report to the State iDepartment on the conditions he found.
