Washington, Jan. 15.-While firemen
and soldiers battled in the face of ex-

shook the vicinity, flames destroyed
the interior OF the giant quartermas-

barracks here. 1t was the fourth of
q series Of mysterious fires to break
out in the building during the last 10
days and the loss may reach 100000.

flames were discovered and no one al
lowed to enter or leave. No arrests
have been made thus far.
Soldiers Blame lnccndiarteS.
Soldiers from the post insisted the
blaze must have been incendiary.
Today the first flames were noted
about o'clock in the second tiool

WHAT CAN I DO TO HELP
WIN THE WAR?

A Personal Word to the Read
ers of the Record:
The United States will rush
soldiers to France as fast as
possible, it is announced in lat
est news dispatches. North
" Dakota boys are already there.
1t is believed that a million
+" American soldiers will be in
France by spring. The task
" of getting enough food to
" France and England is even
now taxine the available shin
ping facilities to the utmost.
" Every nook and Granny of ev-
= cry ship is filled to capacity.
Every American soldier added
in France means one more
mouth to feed and adds to
=" these difficulties.
You can helr win the war by
using corn, oats. rye and bar
ley in place of wheat. Wheat
and flour can be racked away
into smaller shipping space
than almost anv other food of
equal value. Use corn and
save wheat for the soldiers.
Try this recipe which is re-
commended by the Food Ad-
ministraticn:
- CORN DODGER
2 cups corn meal !
I teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons fat
IL cups boiling water
Pour the boi'ino water over
the other materials. Beat
well. When cool, form into
thin cakes and bake 80 minutes
in hot oven. Makes ID bis
cults. These crisn little bis
cults are rood with b1tter or
gravy. Eat them with your
meat and gravv.

MERRY LITTLE QUIZ INTO AF-
FAIRS OF ATTY. GEMS Of

Comparatively few representatives
are reported by local hotels for the
special session, which opens week
from Wednesday,. So lar as can be
learned, President Townley has not

gcther will be disrcnsed with.
After ST. ems Goat
League managers are threatening
an investigation of the Steen- -Kositz-
ky fsud. Steen is generally recos-
nized about the state rs man who
could give Governor Frazier tight
race for the Republican nomination in
the primaries next June Steen has
not indicated that he will be candi-
date, but, with apparent intent of
forestalling the possibility, league
member OF the administration is au-
thority for the statement that the
treasurer's retention of interest fees
on cash deposit made by the Des
Moines Mutual Fire & Tornado Co.,

partisan house.
The fact that these threats have
been made openly by league men,
ber of the state administration fore
casts the nature of the deliberations
which may be expected from the spe-
cial session. Aflidavits as to certain
transactions in the attorney generals
office already have been procured by
a legislator who expects to demand
an investigation of that department
and information is being soucht by
other legislators who wish to look
into the affairs of the state highway
