ARIZONA SOLDIERS IN
 FUNSTON ENTERTAINED
CRr Review Leased Wire,

CAMP FUNSTON. Kas.. March D. It is not a lonely place. Camp Funston. national army cantonment. Here there are the advantages of a small city. and the recruit cannot say he has been deprived many of the pleasures he enjoyed back in his nome town"
 In the Zone. Camp Funston's newest addition. the national army man will find enjoyable and wholesome recrea. ton limited only by his inclination and his pocketbook. Snappy. alert and progressive men are to be found in the Zone, and it Is possible to pur- chase any desired article of merchan- disc. And the prices are risht. for the Zone activities organization sees that the soldiers are not charged ex- orbitantly.
 Buildings in the Zone conform to specifications laid down by Capt. Dick B. Foster of the department of camp activities. but the cost of construc- tion has been met b5 ine individual firms. The Arcade was built by the government. but its cost was pro rated among the tenants.
 Each concession in the Zone pays a per cent of its net sales to Captain Fosters department. which in turn distributes the money 70 the funds of each regiment or separate unit. The per cent paid to the department is de termined by the nature of the busi. ness and the margin of profit Reports cf sales of the week from Monday 10 Saturday. inclusive. are made on Wednesday of the following week
 With the number of business firms in the Zone constantly increasing im- provements are expected to he planned. The present conder walks probably will give place to walks Of concrete construction. while hard surfaced streets and a white way are other possibilities.

The style of buttoning the waist or frock in front was such a wonderful improvement on the old way that it was thought that never in the wide world would women be willing to go hack to the old way which necessitat- ed much craning and reaching or the assistance of an aeeomplice in the deed of "buttcning np." Now the fashion magazines are showing new frocks buttoned up the back and it re- mains to be seen how they will be greeted by women in this country.
 The slip-On is really the most popu- lar form which has yet appeared as a waist novelty. lt is seen in new goergette crepe creations and in frccks of silk or cloth. Usually the fastening is at one side. cleverly hid den under a pleat or a tuck. and a fancy collar edges the round neck across front and back ana meets O.l each shoulder. That this novelty is capable of many charming original touches will be readily seen. and the advance summer styles will doubtless show many pretty adaptations of it.
 The "Slip-on"
 One of the Parisian .modistes dis plays q slip-on blouse which reaches to the hips in straight lines and has the round neck line edged with a stand-up collar narrow and starched with a single loop of ornamental braid where it meets in front. The sleeves are kimono. reach to the wrist and have the flare that has recently come into favor. Sleeves and bottom oi blouse are embroidered in a bizarre desisn.
 Another blouse on this order is made of white jersey silk. wish a high stand-up collar, buttoned 'dowr each side and on along the shoulder seam Long. straight narrow sleeve: are buttoned smartly to the cuff. The really distinctive feature of the blouse | is the 'bib apron front which is . piece of the silk embroidered in je and appliqued on the front of tho ] House. A loose panel hangs below ' the waist line in back and has it: lower edge decorated with the sam, jet embroidery.
 EmAroidery
 Paris decrees that the chic costum, must be embroidered. beaded or braid ed. and then proceeds to show man, beautiful and bizarre designs. usuall' borrowed from the orient, for a pat tern. The vest. which goes as a mat ter of course with the spring suit. i smartlE. embroidered or braided. Pan els also receive their share of deco rating and collars. sleeves and belt are not neglected. When all else fail Parisian ingenuity embroiders a piec of the material and aprliques it some where on the front of the waist
 Fringe often is used to edge tn
 bottom of the panel. sometimes beads and other times of wool or silk. a' cording to the material of the rest 0 the costume.

SUGGESTIONS FOR
 FOOD CONSERVATION

Bisbee women have been exchang- ing ideas on the food question ever since NIT. Hoover began 90 interest women of the United States in that much advertised subject. The general trend of conversation on. the war recipes usually reaches the point where some one says:
 I've tried to save and 0e econom- ical. but I find that in spite of all can do my grocery bills for war breads and dishes are larger than un- der the old way"
 It will be remembered that when the government sent out it's call for assistance from the housewives. 1t warned them that the new way would prove more expensive in many locali- ties than the old. but that the food conservation movement was for much greater things than the saving of mon ey in individual households, for il meant national economy, the saving of nation
 However, experimenters in labora- tory and kitchen have discovered the possibility of individual saving also, at the cost of certG-n preconceived LUCAS anu u le possible to save almOs; one-half the cost of butter by using a butter sub, stitute in cooking if not on the table Popular prejudice against oleOmarga- rine and ignorance of its ingredients have prevented housewives generally from adopting its use. although in the east. where there is not the almost unlimited supply, of dairy products which we of Arizona boast the bar riers of prejudice have been broken down. OleOmargarine is composed of nutmeats entirely, and therefore is rich in nutriment.
 Nuts of lll kinds are being substi tuted for meat in cooking and many delicious dishes have been devised The following recipe will illustrate the point:
 Sweet Potato and Peanut croquets 1 cup mashed sweet potato.
 cup chopped peanuts. F teaspoonful salt-pepper. 1 cup bread crumbs
 teaspoons oleomargarine. 1 cup white sauce.
 2 teaspoons chili sauce ! Mix sweet potato. peanuts finely chopped. salt and pepper, and shape | like croQuets. Roll in fine bread crumbs mixed with oleomargarine and bake in a hot oven until brown. Serve with white sauce mixed with chil sauce. Canned sweet potatoes may be served when the fresh are not ob | tainable.
 As a substitute for cake and pic ( these cookie recipes may be useful:
 Peanut Cookies-Two tablespoon: shortening. two teaspoons baking 1 powder one-quarter cup sugar, one | quarter teaspoon salt. one egg. two ! tablespoons milk. one-half cup flour one-half cup chopped peanuts. one half teaspoon lemon juice.
 Mix shortening. sugar and beater | egg. then sift in flour. baking pow | der and salt; add milk. nuts |, ana lemon juice Drop from teaspoon or ungreased pan. one inch apart Place half peanut one each and baks in moderate oven ten or twelve min utes.

 one teaspoonful in a piece. A verN Stir all together and drop on tins | little salt may be added.
