Duty That Lies Near.

If only it could be impressed upon
each and every one Of Us that we must
do our duty whatever that duty may
be and wherever it may be, just as
well as we possibly can, what tre-
mendOus thing it would be.
1t has been said that if the American
people would save just 10 per cent of
what they have formerly spent the war
would be won and victory would be
assured. The girl in the home can do
a tremendous part in the winning Of
this war-she can save in many ways,
she can work in many ways and she
does not have to have any special tai
ent for it either.
Character and industry, these are
the things that count, these are what
make life really worth the living.

six million acres, large proportion
of which is covered with trees. or

per cent and western hemlock about
Is per cent. The spruce are occasion
ally six feet in diameter and $50 feet
tall. The interior forests are prac-
tically all found in the drainage basins
Of the Yukon and Kushokwim rivers,
and 1t is estimated that there are forty
million acres bearing trees large
enough for cordwood and logs.

SUGAR BOARDING WILL
MEET WITH PROSECUTION

An appeal to the patriotism Of the
people of the state as we'll as a warn
ing as to the consequences to be eX-
Fected If rules and regulations are
not observed is made by the state
food administrator, w. B. Aver, in a
| statement to the public:
There are always few people
who display little impatience with
the changing rules of the food admin
istration. They forget that food con-
dltions are constantly changing as
well as transportation and shipping
conditions.
At first It was meat, wheat, sugar
and fats, but for several months the
PEOPLE of this coast have not had
meatless days Then the wheat situ-
ation became alarming and we were
asked to go without wheat flour en-
t.rely. That situation is improving
as we approach the new harvest, so
We are returning to the $3.50 rule,
Sugar is now the great food problem,
frising from the necessity growing
out of the fruit canning season,
coupled with submarine sinkings
over 27,OOO,O0O pounds were lost in
June off the Atlantic seaboard and
shortage of ships to transport raw
supplies.
"The present program is therefore
as follows; and should be followed
strictly. Any failure to do so in un-
patriotic:
Sugar for domestic consumption,
three pounds a person a month Deal
ers are permitted to sell at one time
only two pounds to city families and
five pounds to rural families.
Restaurants, hotels, and all pub
lie eating houses are permitted to use
only three pounds of sugar for every
SO meals served and they must secure
certificate before they can pur-
chase.
Candy manufacturers and other
ncn-essental industries are limited
to so per cent of their last years
consumption.
Wheat flour; Mondays and We'd
resdays in every week and the even
ing meal in every day are whcatless.
st all other meals bread must con-
tain not less than % per cent of sub
sttutes and pastry cakes, pies and
all other things not less than one
third substitutes.
The total consumption of wheat
flour for all purposes is limited to six
pounds per person month
Dealers are only permitted to sell
wheat flour by selling at the same
time an equal amount of substitutes.

Old Tarrytown on the Hudson Refuses
to Become Part of Modern
Hustle and Bustle.

Safely alOOf from the rush and
scramble which typlfies Long Island
today lies TarrytOwn on the Hudson.
The solidarity and leisurely prosperity
of TarrytOwn have kept it from being
swept along with the stream of world
ly progress. 1t has tarried.
1t has kept its legends and traditions,
its landmarks and historic buildings.
1t still likes to look at the monument
marking the spot where Andre, the spy,
was captured. 1t likes to recall with
thrills of local pride "The Legend of
Sleepy Hollow" until it sees again the
headless horSeman pursuing the luck
less Ichabod.
There are other spectcrs OF which
the locality can boast, notably that of
Andre, also on horseback, who can be
heard at night riding at high speed up
the road on which he was captured. At
the fatal spot the sound of hOofs
ceases, naturally enough, leaving the
chance nearer to scuttle home with
unseemly haste.
Night is an excellent time to go sight
seeing in Tarrytown. There is the
Sleepy Hollow graveyard, which no WIS.,
itor would wish to miss, and which has
an additional charm when viewed by
moonlight. There is always the posi-
bllity that some illustrious resident Of
the place may come forth to take the
air and wander once again to his old
home or 10 the market place.

The Bible and profanity were
strangely intermingled in the congress
few days ago. Senator Overman
made the statement that President
Wilson "has been criticized in many
instances, for instance, for not taking
senators into his confidence" To which
Senator Reed remarked: "Oh hell :"
Senator Overman expressed the hope
that this expression would go into the
Record. Subsequently Senator Over
man read into the Record section of
the eighteenth chapter Of Exodus, de-
scribing how Aaron and Hur sat by
the side of Moses and held aloft his
hands throughout the day while the
conflict between the army of Israel and
the army of Amalek was in progress.
