A DRYING YEAR

I'VE hope this year will not be re-
membered for its drought, but it
should hold the record as a drying
year-the time when American house,
wives adopted the method Of their
grandmothers and saved the food
supply without using glass or tin, or
wasting shipping space.
j Cans of all kinds cost real money
now. Tin is becoming one rot the
rare metals and glass is. scarce. Shin
ping space is urgently needed for any
purpose other than for handling un-
necessaries. Tin cans and glass Jars
are not necessary when foods can
be dried and kept in bags or boxes.
Last summer the women of the
farms and towns helped a lot to re-
neve the pressure on supplies by dry
ing vegetables, but that was only a..
start. This year all the driers in the:
country should be put to use through
out the season, and where driers are
not; available. the sun will do the,
work. =,
Dried foods are becoming recog-.
nized as equal to foods put up along
with their juices. The juice can be
put back from the pump. CONNER
clal drlers are now putting out dehy-
drafted products that do not run up
big freight bills. When served they
! look and taste like the tin can or
glass-jar foods.
! What we need to do is to dry all the.
vegetables we can, keep the cans out
OF freight space, and quit, hauling
! water from one end Of the country, to
the other: These things count when
nation like ours winces at the loss,
OF bag of flour. and freezes because
1t can't move enough coal.-The

"Sufs" Give Thanks
For Gains Abroad.

A Thanksgiving celebration at the
National WOman's party headquar-
tiers last night, at which thanks
for democracy abroad were mingled
with protests against the delay of
democracy at home. was addressed
by Mrs. Harvey w. Wiley and DR..
Valeria H. Parker. of Hartford.
Conn.
Mrs Wiley pointed out that suff-
ragists had reached the last trench
in their "bloodIcss fight to achieve
the political freedom of America" "
and that the efforts of women to
win democracy for America must
now be concentrated on the Senate.
Unless the federal amendment is
passed by that body before March
4. it must go back to the House of
Representative and be passed by
the Lower House as well as by the
Senate.
Our campaign on the Senate is
the elimination of years of effort.
in which much has been accomplish
ed for which suffragists can be
thankful" said Mrs. Wiley. Among
the advances secured have been the
conversion of the President from in
difference to eloquent advocacy, the
passage of the amendment by the
House, the endorsement of national
suffrage by the national committees
of both political parties. and the
winning of all but one of the votes
necessary to carry the Senate.

to make another direct appeal to

the Port and Harbors Commission

Buyers Of Liberty Bonds

Reports of purchases of Fourth Lib

the Russians in this country have
contributed in no small degree to
the success of that tremendous ven
ture. Their assistance is the more
significant when one considers the
comparatively small number of Rus
slams in this country and the variety
of political views which they enter
tain.
1t is frankly admitted by Russians
that the first two loans were not
heavily subscribed to by Russian peo-
pie in this country. The Third and
