MAKING MEATLESS
DAYS PERMANENT.

In the meatleSs menu there is a fer
tile field for developing new and nour-
iShing dishes, according to E. II. Niles,
writing in the Hotel Gazette, who be-
lieves that the present shortage of
meat and fats will not end with the
coming of peace, but may grow more
acute and continue for five or six
Years, thus making 1t worth while to
develop menus of grain, vegetables
and fish on a more or less permanent
basis. Meat can be replaced by cereals
and other protein foods, or may be
served in very small portions as fla
voring for other food. In making up
meatless menus this author finds our
American Creole and southern cuisine
a broad field for investigation.

was the host and certainly did him
self justice in the line of entertaining.
He also showed art in the decorations,
which were very unique in the shape
of Cupid and heart valentines on red

house. The evening was spent in
playing cards. The first prize, the
host decided after much discussion to
keep, as he was the best player, ac-
cording to the score. Bob Rowe was
awarded consolation. On arriving,
each lady was presented with large

The British Parliamentary Election.

For the first time in its history, Great
Britain, on Saturday, elected new
Parliament during one day. Heretofore,
elections for members of the House of
Commons extended over a long time, the
various constituencies selecting what
ever date that seemed TO suit them for
holding the elections But this wear the
entire new House of Commons was chosen
on the same day. just as We elect q House
Of Representatives in this country at
the November election with the cxcep-
tion of few States that elect somewhat
earlier
The election was featured by an un-
usual exercise of the privilege of franchise
by English women, upon whom the priv
ilege Of voting was only recently conferred
In many districts the women appeared at
the polling places earlier than the men
did, and seemed more eager to vote
Probably this was only natural for The
reason hat this WIS their first opportunity
Of voting
The actual results Of the election viii
not be known for several weeks, when the
returns of the voting by soldiers on the
late fields OF battle will be received and
counted but there Is little doubt that
Premier Lloyd George viii have a safe
working majority in the new Parliament
elected on Saturday
But the future is not assured. 1t is
not believed the new Parliament chosen
on Saturday viii last long The qucs-
tions arising from the settlement Of the
war will command the attention Of the
British public No Parliament can long
exist that is not in full accord with British
public sentiment. The general belief is
that the election Of the new Parliament on
Saturday was only sort OF makcshift to
tide over affairs until light may come from
the Peace Conference Then there may
be battle royal in Great Britain over
the election Of an administration TO take
up the great quest ions left by the war
and carry them TO a conclusion

The President In Paris.

President Wilson had a great reception
in Paris, on Saturday There was an
imposing ceremonial program and the
manifestations Of pleasure by the people
al his presence in their city were most
enthusiastic.
II takes US some time to get settled
down to the actual fact of President Of
the United States leaving his country
and visiting foreign lands Such pro-
cedure is contrary to all precedent and
hostile TO what we have heretofore looked
upon as sound policy
But, when the situation is calmly look
ed upon, it is not to be wondered that
President Wilson made the venture In
the first place, by reason Of the com
manding position Of our government in
the peace negotiations, the representatives
of the foreign governments were earnestly
desirous that President Wilson should 20
over and commune with them They be-
heved his presence would be of great
value IN arriving at conclusions. And
when il is remembered that our country,
which he represents, asks nothing ma
terial from the peace arrangements fur
ther than the general good Of all humanity
and assurances Of peace for the world for
years to come Ills counsel. therefore,
will be welcomed because it will not be
marred by any selfish interests
Also, it is assured that President " ilson
during his stay abroad, will have what one
of his very conspicuous predecessors in
the office Of President would call per
fectly corking time :" He will be received
with acclaim, courtcd, feted and honorcd
wherever he may go lie surely will en-
JOY himself. But it is not 10 be set down
that this personal enjoyment Of high
honors was his main reason for making
the venture of a foreign tour. There il q
work for him to do, and he will do It.

PRESS COMMENT.
SIR THOMAS LIPTON'S CHALLENGE.

If 'the secret of success is constan-
cy to purpose" the Americans cup is
in danger, for Sir Thomas Upton, at
the age of 6S, has challenged again and
for the fifth time. According to Rory
O'More, there is luck in odd numbers, =
but Sir Thomas's fourth challenge, in
1913, came to nothing on account OF
the war. A soothsayer interpreting the
| new challenge could therefore give him
little hope, but might point out that
he expected to win with his four-leaf
shamrock in 1914 and the test is yet
to be made.
When Reliance, the American defend
er, won two fairly close races from Sham
rock III in 1908 and the challenger was
lost in a fog in her third effort, which
was hard luck, Sir Thomas Upton, a
good loser always, seemed to have had
enough. Three defeats would have salts
fed an ordinary yachtsman, but after
ten years of thinking it over he startled
the New York Yacht Club by daring
IT to another contest. Shamrock | had
been disabled in one race; Shamrock
/ had finished first in q race and lost 1T
by hair on time allowance: and the
fog mshap of Shamrock III was no
race at all. From review of these might
have beens' Sir Thomas may have
thought that luck would come his way
If he never gave up; moreover he could
challenge with a smaller boat and might
catch the Americans mapping. Sham
rock " was seventy-hve-footer. She
came over a good deal of mystery,
and from time antcdating the war
her forgotten home has been in South
Brooklyn. However. there are no barn
acles on Shamrock " She may prove
to he magical boat in the capricious
airs down Scotland Light way, where so
many lovers of yachting have gone to
see international races and returned
wearily home without seeing a start
or a finish.
After twenty wears of coveting the
Americas Cup and three years of try
ing. Sir Thomas Upton deserves an
other trial for the cup, and he will have
svmpathizers. He has done q good deal
for the sport and taken his hckings
with a smile At the same time, he will
never get that cup if the New York
Club can outsall him by an inch or a
second which Is as il should be.lsThc

Defence made promises in advance to
meet the cost of fighting the epidemic,
and afterwards repudiated its promises,
the actual responsibility of payment rests
upon the city of Wilmington. To our
city, to our sorely stricken and suffering
people, the services were rendered II is
the duty of the people of Wilmington to
pay the cost.
What would it avail to our city or our
people if we should bc able To evade pay
ment of the costs of fighting that most
terrible visitation? Would the money
we would thereby save do us any good?
Would not the disgrace that would attach
to us if our City Council persists in ig-
noring its plain duty and ''wclches," TO
use the term that expresses the deepest
contemplate infinitely worse and far
more to our discredit?
We feel strongly in respect of this
matter We believe a great service was
rendered the city of Wilmington in com
batting the epidemic, and that the city
should pay the costs. We do not say that
every claim submitted should be paid
without question, but we do recommend
that City Council give careful considera-
ton to all the claims submitted and pass
favorably upon every just charge, TO the
last dollar.
To refuse TO do this. To smugly con-
gratulate ourselves that we came through
a visitation of the greatest tribulation
and suffering, n time when the souls of our
people were tried as they never were
before in all our history, and may evade
paying dollar of the cost would be most
II would be a reflection that
would smirch our municipal character
for all time.
