JACKS MOTHER
BY ROSE HOLMES.

Copyright 1918, by Mcclure Newspaper
Syndicate.)
Of course, Jack is the dearest fellow
in the world, but ne often refers to his
mothers efficiency. Jacks mother is
efficient. I'll admit it. I would also
call her stin-economical
Since the slogan "Get Behind Hoov-
err has become popular it seems to
me that Jack has referred more fire.
quently to the efficiency Of his mother;
has several times intimated that saw
ing a little on living expenses would
be a laudable ambition for me. This
idea was put in words that I under
stood, when he said:
"My dear, I think $40 too much for
you to spend on a hat this season."
So I didn't spend it. I got per-
fectly- good-enough best hat for $50,
and in order to make it last longer /
got one that was all right for every
day for $40.
But that isn't what started to tell
you about. You see, we go over to
Jacks mothers for dinner on her
birthday, and this year was to be no
exception.
knew she would show us her pre-
serves and pickles and cans of things;
and her last winters suit that she had
made as good as new with the addi-
ton of new collar and cuffs.
And 1 happened to think that my
sweater was dirty, and that I would
want to wear it under my coat if we
motored over; and also happened to
think that the fact that it was dirty
would not escape efficiency's eye.
Well, cleaning is expensive, and
didn't Jack want me to economize?
Hadn't I paid the most reliable clean
ing establishment in Boston S1.75 plus
expressage, for cleaning that same
sweater not long ago?-a perfectly ex-
orbitant price; why, the sweater only
cost $3.50 in the first place. No, it
wasn't one of those expensive hand
knit ones, but it was a very pretty
sweater. Yes, that soft rose one you
have seen me wear.

earn $1.75 any easier than to wash
that sweater myself, with about five
cents worth of soap.
Did you ever try to wash anything?
We've always sent the washing out, SO
haven't any tubs or wringers or things,
but there was bathtub. believe one
of the helps to efficiency is being able
to utilize the things.
1t takes a lot of energy 10 get up

the inside.
Do you know how much sweater
weighs when it's wet?

that garment for the better part of an
hour; then, if it never became clean, I
wouldn't have given it another sOuse.

OUR BOYS Cannot KNOW
French FOOD CONDITIONS
Decrease in Production and Feeding of
Allied Armies and Refugees
Cause Food Short5gs.

American soldiers living at the front
or Immediately behind it can not judge
correctly the food conditions OF
France. The armies are given the
best food, and they often commander
practically all there is in local mar
kets, not realizing the effect this has
on the civilian population.
When stationed in Paris or other
large cities, our boys sometimes dine
at expensive restaurants which can
furnish sufficient food. Even in visiting
certain French homes, they may not
realize the actual scarcity Of food.
The French are a proud race and do
not enjoy showing their discomfort to
their guests; furthermore, they are
ready to do anything to make an
American feel at home among them
even though it takes all their sugar
ration at one meal.
But statistics show the decline of
food production in France. AS much
land as possible is being titled by the
old men, women and children. They
have done their work under danger Of
bombardment by the Germans. After
working in the fields all day, they re-
turn to their homes at night to cook
supper and then carry their blankets
out into the fields to sleep because of
the German habit of throwing bombs
into the villages two or three nights
a week.
The civilians have difficulty in get
ting food because of the large amount
taken from their supplies by the arm
les and refugees. The food supply of
Farnce flows in three directions. First
into the area under military influence,
second into big cities such as Paris,
Marseilles and Bordeaux, and third
into the rest of France which has
been drained to support the Allied
armies

DOUBLE CREAM AND MORE
SUGAR FOR HOTEL PATRONS

The sugar service ration for patrons
of hotels has been increased accord
ing to notice sent by the United
States Food Administration to H. S.
Hadfield, State Hotel Chairman for
Wisconsin, and the ban on sales of
sweet cream containing more than 20
per cent butter fat has been removed.

reads the telegram, "but teaspoOnful

one of the two shall have sugar. One
small lump may be used for demi-
tasse.

I dropped around to the office for
Jack and we came home together.

For Physicians aud Educators.

To counteract the other ef-
fects of the Influenza, patients
should be followed up and you
should be on the lookout for
physical weakness such as run
ming ears resulting in deafness,
heart trouble and poor eyesight.
Teachers may well keep a
close watch on the children for
just such things. A hint to
Superintendent Thomas and the
health officers will no doubt be
appreciated. Discharged SOL
diers should not neglect their
insurance payments or their
policies will lapse.
