Workless Mondays as Ordered by the

with the result that domestic servants have
become .scarcer and the shortage is acute.
Also, other fields of industry have proved 50
attractive that many former servants have
turned to other work for their livelihood
AS these conditions develop further the
housewife will have to perform more of her
nousework and utilize the advantages of labor
saving devices.
In the average family washing and ironing
are weekly chores, and often 1t means enpar-
ing . woman two days or more a week. With
labor scarce and higher wages demanded, many
families will have to find some other solution

simple and practical solution where cleo.

care to prevent shrinking and drying Also
they are especially adapted for washing heavy
articles Of apparel and are most popular on
farms.
The other types Of washers are generally
made of metal, possess numerous protective
and convenient features, are durable, and
hence are more expensive. Any of these
machines can be depended upon to do good
work if not overloaded and given sufficient
time.
When purchasing washing machine it is
always we'll to plan to have it permanently
connected to the drain system and so placed
as to be convenient to stationary tubs for
rinsing and bung. Connection with the drain
will eliminate the carrying and lifting of
water, and with a swinging wringer the
clothes be more readily wrung directly
into the tub
Handdriven machines are also labor savers
since they wash more pieces in a given
time and with less labor than hand rubbing
but of course the electrically operated washer
multiplies this saving considerably and there
fore is the most advantageous purchase

the work without the assistance of outside
help. At least, it means saving one days
wages and paying for the cost of the machine
within a year
An electrical washing machine is one which
when filled with clothes and hot soapy water
can be left for ten or fifteen minutes to
mechanically do it's work while the housewife
goes ahead with something else
Personal preference enters to some extent
into the selection of a washing machine, but
those on the market to-day are of one of four
types:
First, the oscillatng tub; second pressure
and suction; third, revolving cylinder, and
fourth, the dolly" and washboard
The "oscillating" machines operate back
and forth the tub containing the Clothes soap
and water, and thus by rapid agitation the
cleansing is accomplished.
The pressure and suction" type have metal
cones cups which pressed down on the
immersed clothing and raised, producing the
suction which extracts the dirt
The "revolving cylinder" machine consists
Of perforated cylinder into which the soiled
clothes are placed and the motor revolves it
in tub containing hot soapy water. The direc-
ton of rotation is usually automatically and
periodically reversed.
The dolly" type is so-called because the
central agitator resembles a four-eggcd milk
stool, which keeps the clothes in motion. The
"washboard' machine mechanically repro
duces the scrub-board action by rubbing the
clothes between two corrugated board sur
faces.
The dolly" and "washboard" type machines
are usually constructed Of wood and REQUIRE

BY VIRGINIA CARTER LEE

Conserving the sugar supply is SO nee
essary in the present food crisis, when
every spoonful saved to be sent abroad
means so much more heat and energy for
the men fighting at "the 'front.'" that every
conscientious caterer should employ
recipes in which either a small amount
Of sugar is used or some sweetening
agent is utilized in its place. This apart
from the fact that desserts and sweets
in any form should be reduced to mini
mum.
In making desserts, cooking fruit pre-
pairing some of the hot breakfast breads,
using it on cereals or unlocked fruit, in
the various beverages and in candies, the
American people lave used excessive
amounts of sugar, and it is only now
that the reed to economiZe has arisen
that people are beginning to find out that
many Of the natural food favors are real
ly better if the dish is not overwhelmed.
Just now both maple sugar and syrup
are valuable sweetening agents, but these,
like honey, are rather expensive, so they
must be used in small quantities if one
would be economical as we'll as patriotic.
Molasses, syrups and the brown sugar
GALL used in small quantities. are also ex-
cellent, and as these are not SO expensive
recipes in which they appear should be
first choice" when planning the wartime
menus.

baked peppers for Wednesdays luncheon,
while the bone is added to the vegetable
soup, to give it a good meat flavor.
Two fish dinners are allowed for on
Wednesday and Friday, with a good meat
substitute for Tuesday, the meatess day,
a broied steak on Sunday and chicken,
or rather "rooster.' pie on Thursday,
which should allow of sufficient eft-overs
for chowder on Friday, combined with

With the strict conservation of fowls
to keep up the egg supply, the supply of
these birds is greatly diminished, and the
price is consequently high BY shopping,
however, ROSTERS may be obtained that by
careful cooking will give very satisfac-
tory meal.
Purchases for the week will include at
the butchers a four-pound fowl or rooster,
at SO cents q pound; one-quarter of pound
of salt pork, at six cents, and three pounds
of steak, at 35 cents a pound.

Efficiency: These Devices

Household Tools

A WOMAN'S time may be
~ worth little or much. There
may be blessings to be wrung
out of continuous drudgery if it cam
not be escaped, but there is no virtue
in drudgery as such if you can make
your "head save your heels" and by
using economical devices for your
household work set the human ma
chine free for work that is more val
liable and varied-work the machine
can't do.
With every industry calling out for
labor and so many war activities de-
pending on woman's work, it is mis-
take in economy for any woman to run
household without proper tools, even
when saving is an important factor.
1t is true economy to put in your
time on the highest grade of work you
can do and leave the routine tasks to
apparatus or shorten them by using
proper tools whenever you possibly
can. This is true, far-sighted econ
omy, not extravaganza, though it may
call for an initial expenditure. Ten
dollars spent now for vacuum
cleaner or a fireless cooker or some
other piece of household apparatus
may mean $50 saved in the course of
year.

of operating these machines is about two cents
an hour at 10 cent per kilowatt hour rate,

done at an expense of five cents week.
For household without electricity, or if

yet would like to save time and labor by using

chimes it is we'll to look at the driving mechan-
ism, to make sure that it is inclosed, easily
fabricated and substantially constructed Par
tlcularly note, where there are children in the
household, how carefully the moving parts are
sateguarded from prying little fingers.
A direct gear drive, of course, is the
stronger and more positive since there is no
belt to become slack and if this gearing is in
closed and running in grease abuse by a care
less or ignorant servant is practically i1npos-
sible.
The operation controlling levers should be
simple and readily accessible Also it should
be possible to carry on the wringing and
washing operations separately or together as
desired.
The wringer should have hard rubber rolls
and spiral springs at each end, rather than a
steel spring on top. Steel ball bearings, a
convenient and practical pressure release and
rolls that are reversible in operation are all
advantageous points

machine is its greatest expense, but the money
is wisely invested if the matter is thought over
and carefully planned beforehand. The cost

DISCOVERY OF GOLD

Gold was discovered in California
seventy years ago today, Jan. "a, 1S48,
by James Wilson Marshall. He was
native Of New Jersey who had gone
West and. settled on the site of Sac
ramento. Blasting away some rock
to make a foundation for a building
he observed grains of what seemed
gold scattered about. He took a
number of specimens to Gen. Suffer,
at Suffers Fort, who made tests
which proved the presence of the pre-
cious metal. Wild excitement follow
ed the discovery, and the immortal
rush of the '49'ers brought thousands
of miners and Adventures to Califor-
MIA. Marshall did not profit from his
find, and would have spent his last
days in poverty except for small
pension granted by the State of Cali
fornia.

MAY FORCE AN
AGREEMENT UPON
IRISH QUESTION

London, Jan. 24-In connection
with the report of the Irish conven-
ton, which is expected soon, the As
ISOLATED Press learns that there are
two outstanding features that indicate
a settlement of the perplexing ques-
ton whether the conventions report is
unanimous. One feature is the ap-
probation on the part of the British
statesmen that a settlement must be
reached for the sake of cementing
further the friendship with the
United States not only for the period
of the war but for the future. The
other feature is that the British pub
lie has become wearied by the present
state of affairs.
1t is pointed out that the war has
changed the whole problem. Hither-
to the Irish question has been kept
alive by parties, but now there are no
parties and all the leaders are agreed
that if a settlement is possible it must
be reached.
So far there is no inkling of what
the report of the convention will be,
but it is believed in responsible quar-
tiers that the government will be pre-
pared to step into the breach and
force a settlement, if necessary. If
the convention is unanimous in its
recommendation the government
probably will act accordingly, but in
the event of a disagreement the feeling
is that the government will accept the
majority report and put it into effect,
with possibly a few alterations calcu-
lated to harmonic the different fac
tons in Ireland.
