Meals and Marriane

The length, of time that a woman
has been married can be told approx
mately by the manner in which she
eats her refreshments at an afternoon
party. If she excuses herself, just be-
fore the. refreshments are served, and
fiounces out in righteous, yOu-neglect-
your-husband-shame look at the
other guests, she is a bride of not
more than two months.
When a woman sits nervousiy on
the very edge of her chair and eats
absent-mindedly with her eyes on the
clock, she has been married at least
six months, but has not yet become
calloused to suffer because her hus.
band is kept waiting for his evening
meal.
After women have been married
from one to thirty years they settle
down to a thorough enjoyment Of
what the hostess best efforts have pro
duced in the eating line, which nc
vision Of cross, impatient and starving
husbands can dim.-Atchison Globe.

$50 non-commissioned officers from
overseas were entertained by the War
Camp Community Service on Tues
day night at Mole-Tequep Club, the
community house established for men
in the service at Camp Dix. The WISH
tors who arrived in this county two
days before were selected, because of
their ability and experience, to act
as instructors for the men now prepar-
ing for service in France. Heretofore
officers of marked ability in handling
men have from time to time been de-
tached from General Pershing's army
and sent home to drill the new forces
in actual warfare as it is now being
conducted. Since instruction in
trench work has practically given way
to fighting above ground it has be-
come necessary to develop the work
of the top sergeants, sergeants and
|corporals who, in open fighting, direct
y control the squads. The mon
CONS" of the first batch to arrive here
will be scattered in few days among
all the camps in this country.
w. P. Jackson, the War Camp
Community Services representative
at Camp Dix, had provided an attrac-
tive program of music for their enter
tainment and after refreshments were
served he conducted the whole party to
the Army Theatre where they greatly
enjoyed the performance. Afterwards
the visitors returned to the club where
there was more music and this time
most of the men from France did
most of the singing Before the par
ty broke up the 'non-coms" expressed
great satisfaction with the way the
War Camp Community Service had
entertained them. They were especial
ly emphatic in declaring that the good
effects of the. care given by the service
to-the soldiers, sailors, and marines be-
fore they left this country were very
noticeable on the other side.
In order to adequately meet the en-
ormous calls for ice at Camps Dix and
Merritt, the New JERSEY Food Admin
istration has just completed an investi-
CATION under the direction of Mahlon
S Drake, of the food administration
ice committee. Mr.. brakes recon-
mendations for Camp Dix include the
establishment of great camp store
house to be filled with natural ice in
winter. Manufactured ice is consider
ed far too costly. The present artificial
plant at the camp, manufactures only
20 tons daily, supplying only one
third of the need. 1t was considered
unwise to install a larger plant, in
that such would necessarily be aband-
oned after the war. Extra ice is now
being obtained for Camp Dix from
Lake Hoptacong at 50 per ton at the
shipping point. There is no adequate
local supply
The cost of the proposed storage
house will be $4,000, while an ade
quate artificial ice plant would cost
about 100000,

Random Remarks

Certain forms of railroad tickets
which travelling men and others have
been denied for years are to be put in
to effect this morning. These are
passenger mileage books interchange
able and good ON any railroad They
will be accepted in payment of passen-
ger fares on trains, in exchange for
tickets and for extra baggage charges.
Two books are being prepared-one
! with 1000 coupons, each coupon worth
three cents, or one mile of travel, to be
sold for $50, with the addition of s24O
war tax collected when the book is
bought, and another with 500 coupons,
selling for SIS, with $T.20 additional
war tax. Each book is to be transfera-
bic and may be used for any number

elers may present these books to con-
ductors on trains if they wish, but aIe
advised to have the mileage script ex
changed for tickets between points
where there are long and short routes
in order to gain advantage of the short
est distance and the lowest charge
The new tickets will meet a need that
everyone but the railroad companies
have felt must eventually come.

ERICA has several excellent war time sweet

They are maple sugar, syr1ps, honey and

When cup of syrup or honey Is used
to replace cup of sugar the liquid in the
recipes should be decreased one-fourth.
One-third of a cupful of sugar is equivalent
