Army Training Corps number about
$50. They have capacity of about 3d.
900 students and the course occupies a
period of two months. Here again
man may be assigned to other duty
after shorter period or he may be re-
tanned for longer one to undergo
special training.
The students in The vocational schools
will also be observed for the purpose of
picking out officer material. A four
year high school course is By no means
necessary to get commission.
AS the vocational section will train
men at the rate of about so, 600 every
two months, large numbers of men will
be recruited for 1t every month. The
man wishing to enter this section must
apply, as heretofore, to his local draft
board. When a iota from a certain
section is needed the local boards are
notified to receive such applications.
Some confusion has resulted in the past
from the fact that some local boards
had not received such notices and hence
refused to receive applications. Most
of the local boards will not receive ap-
plications. In case of refusal the ap-
pllcant may apply to the nearest in
stitution having vocational unit.

dents' Armu TRAINING Corna chonId ra

Der OF the United States Army, Navy
or Marine Corps, for service in what
ever place he is best qualified to fill, as
soon as he can be trained to fill it.

CHANCE IN EREAD RU .ES
THO VTREATLcSS PLEDGE ENDS

The cable of Herbert Hoover from
london releasing hotel and restaurant
proprietors from the wheatless pledges
does not mean that the sky is now
the limit" The rules and regulations
laid down when the Allies called for
more wheat as an alternative to de-
feat Still hold good and will be rigidly
enforced by the Maryland Food Ad-
ministration, while grave crisis has
been tided over it is absolutely neces-
sary that an ample reserve be built uD
both here and abroad, so that Uncle
Sam and his Allies can face any future
food emergency with comfort. 1t must
never be nip and tuck again; the pen
atty for defeat is too high to permit
the taking of any chances.
Under the still existing rules all pub
lie eating places must continue to
serve only Victory Bread, into which
composition enters at least rs per
cent. of substitutes for wheat flour.
And only two ounces of such bread
may be served to a customer at one
meal. THE baking regulations
haven't been changed, and they will
continue to be enforced as they stand"
is Mr.. W. H. Maltbie's announcement.
The cable from London merely abb
solved from their pledge to use no
wheat those hotelmen and others who
promised total abstinence until har-
vest time, after a conference early in
June with Herbert Hoover. This was
a free-Will Offering and the Maryland
Food Administration, realizing the
time and thought which were entailed
In eliminating all wheat from the bill

gratitude and congratulations to those
in this State who gave such practical
demonstration of their patriotism.

HOW TO DRY VEGETABLES.

Baltimore.-That the drying Of
fruits and vegetables this summer is
a duty of paramount Importance, in
cumbent upon every woman who
counts herself a patriotic citizen
OF the country, is shown by the atten-
ton being given to this work by the
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture. The department has not only
given a large dryer to the War Fund
Bureau here, but notified the Wo-
mans Civic League yesterday that it
would also send a pressure Gamer,
through the use of which 400 Jars
could be ready for filing in eight
hours. and that 1t would also give
special course in the drying of fruits
and vegetables, sending to the course
nationally known authorities on do
nestle science problems
The School Board of Baltimore has
placed at the disposal Of the Depart
ment of Agriculture and the War
Food Bureau of the Women's Civic
League the Eastern High School, and
is also donating the supplies that will
be needed in the course Of demonstra-
tions. They will be open to all do
mestic science public school teachers,
private school domestic science teach
ers and hospital dietitiaHs, and will
take place daily at 100 P. NJ.

SEEKING A SUGAR Reserve
HOOVER SAYS "O0RT WASTE"

The difference between the wheat
and the sugar situation is this-that
IN The first case the United States has
to ship out the wheat it has and in the
other 1t has to ship in the sugar it
hasn't. Wheat has to be saved from
our own scanty supply for cur army
and our allies and practically all the
ocean tonnage available after meeting
certain imperative military demands,
ois devoted to Transporting that cereal
TO France. Sugar in abundance awaits
shipment here from Cuba, but few
ships can be spared to carry it hither.
the problem therefore in regard to
sugar is to make the fluctuating but
never sufficient supply in this country
go round In the case of both sugar
and wheat, a shortage demands from
us sacrifice and substitution, but the
reasons are not identical
In order that a reserve stock Of
sugar may be built up and thereby
the danger of an acute sugar famine
entirely removed, the Food Administra-
ton has stiffened the regulations and
requests II makes regarding the use of
that commodity. For general house
hold use the amount that can be had
by purchaser is placed at two pounds
in the cities and five pounds in the
country. For householders who certify
in writing that they require sugar for
canning and preserving purposes and
promise to return whatever is not so
used, purchases Of 25 pounds are per-
mitted In the cities and Of so pounds
in the country.
SnhGfitl1taQ for not
hard to find as substitutes for wheat.
Maryland patriotism should not have
much trouble in selecting understudy
sweeteners. Here is just one example:
why not cut out the sugar from ice
cream and use instead a mixture Of
honey, maple syrup, and corn syrup
instead. The fastidious members Of
one of the most famous clubs in Mary
land have been served that kind of
ice cream for months and have noticed
no change-unless for the better.
Never encourage the use of sugar.
Dealers are forbidden to boost its sale
by advertisements; less will be used
on Maryland's quarter-million tables

spoonfuls-not the heaping kind at
that-are allowed TO each order. The
simple truth Is that neither here nor
there-thanks to submarines, Cuban

ces-is there any too much sugar to
meet real needs. Till the situation
clears, it is necessary for all to cut
out all waste and humor their sweet
tooth only with substitutes for sugar

MAKE YOUR OWN SOAP.

Wartime necessities bring us back
TO primitive conditions. The present
world shortage of fats has caused,
amongst other things, the price OF
manufactured soap to go skyward.

as regards laundry soap, at any rate.

TWO WAYS OF GETTING FOOD.

Germany has demanded from Hol-
land $4,000 COWS, 5000 horses, 10000
tons of cheese, 100000 eggs, $50 tons
of fatty products, large quantity of
poultry, 5000 tons of sugar and 200 900
hides. In addition, Germany also
wants a certain amount of Quinine,
while from the Dutch colonies an addi-
tional credit Of 100000 forms month
ly Is desired.
Not only the Allies but the Amer.
lean army as well is asking for food,
but their appeal does not depend upon
threats. 1t depends upon patriotism.
The things most in demand to help
your side win the war are wheat,
meats, sugar, and fats.

The Kansas City sun. (Kansas City, Mo.) 1908-1924, 1918-08-10

against the chill Of wet bathing
suits and cool breezes, various capes
and nantes and scarfs have been pro-
vided, to be slipped on over the suit.
Many of them are made of rubber
cloth, such as is used in hats and
caps, for bathing, or of cloth rubber
lied on one side. Besides these there
are caps and nantes of turklsh-towel
fabrics, of coarse weave, wiry wooden
fabrics, of light weight, and of rub
berized satin. The wooden fabric
makes suits that shed water quickly.
The bathing suits and their Access
sories that entice n waterward this
season are the most graceful and be-
coming and also the most varied In
design that have appeared for years.
1t is evident that they are intended
to be ~presentable In canoes, on house
boats and on the beach as we'll. The
caps and hats, made of rubber cloth,
are not merely head coverings, but are
entitled to be classed as a special kind
Of millinery. Rubber cloth is used for
rosettes and flower forms that trim
them. There are sailor shapes, tams,
and visored caps that shade the eyes,

base of the crown. Dark blue beads
fasten each piece to the side
crown.
AT the bottom of the group there
is a small shape having q crown COW
cred with white taffeta embroidered
with wool. The brim and crown band
are of navy blue t~affeta, and there are
four pairs of small navy blue wings
at the right side. The brim rolls up
at the left. The shape and the fine
work required In making this model
will commend it to smartly dressed
matrOns.
The remaining hat is one Of many
models for fall in which narrow rib
bon covers the body of the shape
with various kinds of facings-some-
times ~lohg-napped beaver cloth, In
contrasting color, sometimes panns
velvet and sometimes a fancy braid
The last was chosen for the pretty
model pictured. Porcelain blue, rose,
orchid and other gay, soft colors have
been liked for hats OF this character.

many fanciful caps and a new and al
together fetching head-dress that
looks like the cap worn by trained
nurses, with q veil that protects the
neck and throat, that is made of rub
Der tissue. All these bathing toys may
be had in gay and pretty colors-rose
and sea-green are great favorites-
or in dark and medium blues-block
and orange or black and white, among
other color combinations. Caps or
scarfs, with cap or hat to match, are
especially smart, and sometimes a
big knitting bag makes a trio that
cannot pass unnoticed. Fol the knit
ting bag goes with us everywhere
even down to the sea.

collar and white silk cord and tassef

In the capes of urse wooden goods
collars and bindings are introduced In
a contrasting color.

BY the time that August rolls round
each year women's eyes stray away
from summer millinery and such new
headwear as they buy is prophetic
of fall. In the late summer they ia
vor something quite different from the
hats of midsummer, no matter how
beautiful these may have been, and
incline TO tailored headwear made Of
silks and other fabrics. Outing hats
md between-season sport hats inter-
est them, but straws and flowers are
things of the past even In July. They
continue to wear them, but not to buy
them.
Here are three of the new deml-
season hats with which fair woman
will adorn her head until October sets
her thinking of winter, and fall show
lngs of winter millinery, tempt her to
anticipate her needs. These are
tailored hats that seem to be placed
right when worn with light summer
frocks or with tailored suits on cooler
lays. They play a necessary role In
fashions drama and are a part of the
pageant of the seasons-like the turn
Ing leaves of autumn.
A lovely hat of beige color and
navy taffeta, at the top of the group,
has its brim faced with navy blue taft
