Leftover Breakfast Cereals

Remnants of cereal breakfast
foods may often be utilized to make
palatable dishes, to thicken soups or
other foods, and in similar ways.
Small quantities of cooked cereal
left over from a meal can be nodded
in cups and reheated for later use
by setting the cups in boiling water.
Another way to economic cereal
mushes it to add hot water to any
mush left over so as to make it very
thin. 1t can then easily be added
to new supply. The practice Of
frying the left-overs of boiled hon.
my or Of corn-meal mush is as old
as the settlement of this country,
and the nursery song about the "bag
pudding the queen did make" from
King Arthur's barley meal shows us
that for centuries other cereal pud-
dings have been treated in the same
way. In oatmeal oysters, leftover
cereal is dipped in eggs and crumbs
and fried. Leftover rice and other
cereals are commonly used in GRO
quettes and puddings.

THREE YANKEES
IN TIGHT PLACE
Enter Fismes and Enemy Lines in
Darkness but Escape After
Being Fired Upon

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY
ON THE AISNE-MARNE FRONT
Accommodating a few night ago a
California lieutenant and two SER
geants, one of the latter from Mil
waukee, crossed the Vesle river into
the outskirts of Fismes and before
they knew it the trio was inside the
German lines. The three Americans
were crawling on hands and knees
when the milwaukee sergeant saw
thru the darkness another crawling
creature approaching.
The Americans realized that they
had encountered an enemy and
waited for him to make the first
move. Inste..d of continuing for
ward, however, the enemy demanded
in German, who goes there?" The
Milwaukee sergeant answered with
his best German words, in preference
to using his pistol, with the hope of
not arousing any additional Ger
mans.
German Opens Fire
But the enemy prowler, apparently
detecting an American accent, opened
fire and German reinforcements
quickly came into action. The

FOOD RULES IN PARIS ARE
MORE STRICT THAN HERE
Y. w. G. A. Workers ON Other Side
Write of Complications at Ho-
tells Where Women Stop ON
Their Way to Service

I'VE think we are having a hard
time here with our sugar regulations
and the trouble in getting proper
help" said Miss Constance Morris,
assistant secretary of the Boise Y. w.
c. A., "But we lear that our trou-
bles cannot compare with those of
the Y. w. c. A. worker abroad.
Miss Grace Hawrick, Y. w. C. A.
representative in Hotel Petrograd,
the Y. w. C. A. hotel in Paris for
American women, writes that the
new food regulations in Paris are
causing them endless complications
on account of the coming and going
of guests. She says:
We have to have individual
bread cards for every soul in the
house. To obtain these we had to
make list Of everybody, with name,
age, sex. nationality and occupation.
New people arriving in Paris now
and not already possessing bread
cards, must procure them from the
man at the station as they give up
their tickets at the gate.
Everyone in the hotel is work
ing so hard that we see little of each
other. Those who formerly had a
good deal of time on their hands
while waiting for passes to their vari-
GUS destinations, now are working
day and night in the big stations
helping the Red Cross to care for
thousands of refugees, who are pour
ing into Paris from the front.
The help question at the hotel
has been rather difficult one, be-
cause of constant raids and lombard
ments, but now the servants have be-
come calmer since it has continued
so long,"

Landing of American
Troops Hailed With
Delight at Archangel;
Considered as Pledge
of Friendliness of the
United States.

participated in the landing of the al
lied forces at Archangle last week.
The first detachment of the interna-
tional forces included members of
the Russian officers league.
The participation Of the Americans
in the landing has been greeted en-
Enthusiastically in northern Russia.
The people consider that the United
States is absolutely without selfish
interests as regards Russia and look
upon Americans as guaranty of the
friendliness Of the allies toward Rus
STA.
Archangel Cheers Troops
The population of Archangel re-
ceived the troops with cheering. The
men debarked and advanced toward
Archangel, where already an anti
Bolshevik revolution had taken place.
The leaders in this movement invited
the protection of the allied troops.
The final resistance of the Boil
shevik occurred Saturday. They were
definitely defeated at the station at
Ysakogorka, on the left bank of the
Dvina.
Bolsheviki Seize Treasure
In their fight from Archangel the
Bolisheviki forces carried away 40
100000 rubles in money and much
other treasure, but left many sup
plies behind them. The bridges and
railway lines were not damaged.
The new provisional government
at Archangel which has assumed
powers "thruout the region of the
north" is receiving the volunteer
support Of the village soviets in the
country adjoining Archangel.

Former Senator Fred T. Dubois
who is credited with having left
Washington, D. G. several days age
charged with an important political
mission to be performed in western
states, arrived in the city of Boise
last night from Spokane.

here, but said that he would prepare
statement for publication Friday or
Saturday. ,.,
This is his second visit to Boise
within the last two months. On the
occasion of his first visit it was re-
ported that he came to bring a per-
sonal message from the president to
the people of Idaho regarding the
return to congress of Senator w. e.

but If he did bear such message he
did not make it known publicly. He

TANKER BATTLES
U-BOAT IN VAIN
Oil Steamer Luz Blanca is Sunk off
Halifax After Gallant De-
Tense Made

HALIFAX. N. S.-The Standard
Oil company tank steamer Luz
Blanca was torpedoed and sunk forty
miles west Of this port Monday, after
thrillin gthree-hours battle with q
German submarine.
The crew took to their small boats,
where they were shelled by the SUBJ
marine, but escaped without being
hit. The chief cook and the chief
steward of the tanker, however,
were killed when the explosion of
the Germans torpedo smashed the
steamers stern.
Second Tanker Escapes
A second oil tanker which was ten
miles astern of the Luz Blanca when
the battle opened escaped by rush
ing full speed to Canadian Allan
tic port.
The Luz Blanca left port at 8
O'Clock Monday morning in ballast.
Three hours later she was attacked
by the submarine and for three hours
she engaged the German in a running
fight, exchanging shot for shot. The
submarine soon learned that he out
ranged the tanker and kept just out
Of reach of the ships gun. The Ger
mans long range-shooting was inef-
fective. Finally, he Unanswered into
a position for torpedo attack and
hit the tanker astern.
Fire on Lifeboats
AS their ship settled fast, the cap
tain and crew took to their three
boats. They pulled away as rapidly
as they could to avoid being hit by
debris from the exploding boilers Of
their ship and the German vindic-
lively fired several shots at them.
His craftsmanship again was bad
and all the shells went wild. Two of
the three small boats reached shore,
The other one was picked up by an
other ship.

Fruits for Children

Fruits should be served in some
form to children at least once a day.
Fruit juices and the pulp of cooked
fruit, baked apples and pears, and
stewed prunes are safest. Whether
the skins should be given depends
partly on the age and health of the
child and partly on the way the fruit
is prepared. If the skins are very
tender they are not likely to cause
trouble, except with very young
children. When apples and pears
are baked the skins can be made
tender by frequent basting.

Americans lodged aside in the drak-
ness and the Germans fired in such
haste and confusion that they shot
several of their own men.
i The Americans sought refuge in
impromptu hiding places, where they
remained until dawn. Then, at last
being able to see the proper direc-
ton they made a dash for the south
side of the Vesle and safely reached
it.
Another Milwaukee sergeant, who
was assigned for duty with the
bridge building contingent recently
was slightly wounded in one of his
feet He made use of his first aid
kit and it was two days before his
companions dicovered by chance that
he had been wounded.

ASKED TO CONFER ON 4
Salaries Of TEACHERS
Civic Organizations and Others In
terested Invited by Board Of Il
a
Trade COMMITTEES. Fi

All civic organizations and other
bodies favoring an increase in the
salary scale of teachers and other en-
ployes of the public schools are urged
to attend an open conference with the
committee on schools of the Board of
Trade in The Star building Wednesday
night.
1T is the expressed opinion of the
Board of Trade that a substantial
salary increase is the necessary remedy
to check the further loss of experienced
teachers and other school employees
from the local system" reads a state
ment issued by the schools conNnittee
of the board.
This loss has been making serious
inroads on the efficiency of our schools.
and in view of the obvious Importance
of maintaining high educational stand
ards, it is deemed very desirable at this
time to devise ways and means of ef-
fectively impressing upon the members
of Congress the urgency of the situa-
ton"
that the sl20 fat increase provided for
teachers in the omnibus bill will not
begin to meet the situation. The Board
of Trade committee on public schools is
convinced that the solution of the diff
Guilty lies in a radical change of the
salary schedule now in force such as
would place the grade teachersNat a
now receive only $500 after an intensive
mental training of two years in the
Normal School after graduating from
a four-year high school course"
