WorkofAmeriGan Women
Canteen WOrkerSlnF11nnGe

New York, Dec. 19.-How Ameri-
can women in France helped to
tighten the cares OF American SOL
! diers, feeding them with sweets,
coking for them, dancing with them,
meanwhile washing dishes and
scrubbing floors was told today by
Mrs. Vincent Astor.
After IS months service in canteen
and welfare work while her husband
was serving with the naval forces,
Mrs. Astor has just returned from
Bordeaux where she was in charge
OF a division of Y. NJ. G. A. women.
One of her corworkers was Mrs.
Henry Russell. formerly Ethel Bor-
den Hartman who was married in
France.
American women have filled such
an enormous place in the war that it
would be difficult to imagine now
what would have been done without
their help" she said. 1.-THE thousands
Of women who got to the other side
gave themselves up completely to
working for the soldiers, both the
sick and the we'll and sthey never
spared themselves in any way. They
worked all the day and often danced
long hours in the evening, sometimes
with a hundred partners.
'In Bordeaux. where I was sta
toned, there were eight American
women and we never asked the
French maids to do anything that
we would not do ourselves; and not
only did we do all this manual work
at first but later when 1t was neces-
sary we would take a hand at a
broom or at frying eggs or washing
dishes. One time Mrs. Russell and l
unloaded and stored a truckload of
sugar in the basement.
1.-The soldiers over there showed
such complete gratitude and courte-
sy to every American woman that
1t made it intensely pleasant to be
doing things for them. Every few
nights we gave a dance. We would
send out a call for American women
and those who volunteered were
brought in by army machines. There
were usually about twenty and they
would have to divide their time be-
tween several hundred men. Once
we had eight women and 1000 SOL
diers.
ITO even things up I borrowed a
'bosuns' whistle and gave a signal
every two minutes to change part
ners. The result was that every
couple would have possibly twenty
men following after them waiting
for the next dance. No distinction
was made between officers and men
at such dances but at the ones given
out at the camps, part Of the even
ing was devoted to the officers and
part to the men.
'In the cafeteria we began by
serving about so men a day and
soon 1t was thousands. They all
wanted eggs and doughnuts and ice
cream.
1--WE had a canteen which means
strictly a tobacco and candy store
where the men bought at cost; and
three nights week we gave pic
lures and entertainments.

New York, Dec. ia new attempt
was made today to establish through
air post service from New York to
Chicago. The effort Yesterday was
unsuccessful owing to a series of
minor accidents. r.. H. Taylor and
C. G. Fry left the postal station at
Belmont Park at a. m. today, Tay-

destination was Bellefonte, Pa,
where they would turn the mail over

New York, Dec. 1S.-Now that the
war is over and the veil of secrecy
is to be lifted from the airplane work
done for army and navy, one of the
biggest surprises coming to the
American people will be to learn
how close we have come to crossing
the Atlantic by air route.
Just before the great war began a
project was afoot to cross the At
lantic by airplane. Most airplane
experts of that day, however, were
convinced that the venture could not
succeed, and it was abandoned. SBut
tremendous strides have since been
made, and now the experts are al

Atlantic, and figure up for yourself
how close we are to crossing that
great body of water by the air route.
Said an authority: 1--WE are on
the verge, not of "a navy that flies .
but of an armada of aerial argosies
that will belt the world with the ease
and swiftness of seagu1ls." And one
of the greatest engineers in the
United States army recently de-
clared: 'It is freely predicted that
a large seaplane will soon cross the
Atlantic"
Americans may awake some morn
ing to find that the trans Atlantic
flight has been successfully negoti-
ated. If this happens, they need not
be surprised.

most a unit in holding that the
trans Atlantic flight may be made
with little difficulty.
An airplane has been manufac-
tured in America that will carry so
passengers. 1t will carry fuel for a
continuous flight of 35 hours. 1t
will run at a speed of 100 miles an
hour. But make allowances for ad-
verse winds and the occasions when
to escape a hurricane or fog the fiiers

Forty eight hogs averaging 109
pounds were taken from alfalfa pas
ture on September 9Th and turned
into 16 acres of Dakota White Flint
corn at the North Dakota expert
ment station. On November 18th
these hogs averaged 203 pounds. The
gains per pig per day Were 1.S

16.3 cents per pound net making the
gains made on the corn worth $45.54

turned into the corn was worth even
more than the corn and put them in

Urge Sinking OF
German Wa7;shibs

Paris, Dec. 19.-The American del
gates to the peace congress have re-
solved to advocate the sinking of
the surrendered enemy warships and
resist any proposition to distribute
them on the basis of naval losses.
This announcement is made by those
in close touch with the American
representatives, who. it is added,
feel that such position would re-
suit in avoiding contention and ma
terially support President Wilson'S
declaration that the war was not
based on aggression or the acquisi-
tion Of territory,
England, through Sir Eric Geddes,
first lord of the admiralty, had pre-
viously acqlfiesced in the American
plan to destroy the captured or sur
rendered warships, and, it is declar-
ed, will continue to support the
United States. although it is expect
ed that some of the lesser naval
powers will demand that the prizes
be distributed.

BOLSheUiSt Army
Much OUerrated

London. Dec. 19.-Reports that the
Russian Bolshevists have raised an
army of 100000 are discredited by
special correspondence to the Daily
Chronicle. 1t is said that the most
reliable information puts the num-
Der of Bolshevist troops at about
100000, scattered over most Of the
former Russian empire. It is point
ed out, however, that 1t is probable
an effort will be made to increase
this force for the purpose Of march
ing westward toward Germany where
the RolsheVists have carried on an
extensive propaganda campaign for
the last year.

HELP IN $3.50
! WHEAT PROGRAM
Thousands Of Retail Grocers Sup
port Food Administration
Rules.
SIGN PLEDGE VOLUNTARILY.
New Wheat Saving Program Demand
ed - Allied Food Shortage In
ereases-America Must
Feed Fighters.

Explaining the United States Food
Administrations new $3.50 wheat reg
ulations is a war time task the Ameri-
can grocer has gladly shouldered.
Many stores are already displaying
their Food Administration wheat saw
ing pledge cards, that they have sign
ed, agreeing to carry out the new
wheat program.
Each flour customer Is now requir-
ed to buy one pound of cereal suDsu-
tute for every pound of wheat Hour.
The substitute may be of one kind or
assorted. This $3.50 sale is made by
weight and not by value Of the COM
modities. There is, of course, no reg
ulation demanding the consumer to
buy wheat flour at all.
A wide variety of substitutes has
been provided: Cornmeal, corn -four,
edible cornstarch, hominy, corn grits,
barley flour, potato -four, sweet potato
-four, soya bean flour, Feterita -four
and meals, rice, rice -four, oatmeal,
rolled oats and buckwheat -four.
Graham and whole wheat flour con-
stitute an exception to the national
regulation. Either of these commodi-
ties may be sold at the ratio of three
pounds to five pounds Of wheat flour
that is, five pounds of graham or
wheat flour counts the same as three
pounds Of the usual wheat flour.
Mixed flours form another excep-
ton. Where any flour contains 80
per cent. or less of wheat it may be
sold without any substitutes. Where
the flour is mixed at the rate Of 60
per cent wheat and 40 per cent. of
other ingredients an additional 20 per
cent of substitutes must be purchased
by the consumer.
Where necessity is shown specially
prepared infants and lnvalids food
containing flour may be sold.
That the approved substitutes may
be assorted is a fact many grocers
and housewives overlooked for time.
For instance If a customer wishes to
buy a "a pound sack of -four the nee
essary substitutes might be assorted
as follows: COrnmeal, pounds; corn
grits, pounds; rice, pounds; buck
wheat, 2 pounds; cornstarch, pound
hominy, 2 pounds; rolled oats, 8
pounds
None of the substitutes should be
considered as a waste purchase.
There are many household uses for
each. The eight pounds of cOrnmeal
can be made into cornbread, corn muf-
fms or used in the baking of wheat
bread.
COrnstarch is useful in making GUS
tard, thickening gravy or may be used
in cake baking. Corn grits fried like
mush forms a delicious dish, or it may
be used in baking corn bread. Rolled
oats are used largely as breakfast por-
ridge or in oatmeal cookies or in
making mullins.
Buckwheat flour may be used in
bread making, forming an excellent
substitute for one-quarter of the
wheat flour, but is especially choice in
the form of buckwheat cakes for
breakfast
With II wheatless meals needed
each week In America to provide
enough wheat for the allies, the Food
Administration believes the substitutes
will all be used to advantage.
