Another Liberty Loan Coming.
Advertisement.

Secretary Of the Treasury
McAdoo has announced that, nc
matter what the results of the
pending overtures for peace may
be, there will be another Liberty
Loan, To use his expression,
"We are going to have to finance
peace for a while just as we have
had to finance war;"
There are over 100000 Upi
ted States soldiers abroad. II
we transport these men back tc
the United States at 100000 Q
month, it will be over half a year
before they are all returned.
Our Army, therefore, must be
maintained, vlctualed and clothed
for many months after peace is
an actually.
The American people, there
fore, having supported the LIB
erty Loan with a patriotism that
future historians will love TO ex-
tol, will have an opportunity to
show the same patriotism IN Il.
naucing the just and conclusive
VICTORIOUS peace whenever 1t
comes.
Not for a moment, however, is
the Treasury acting on any as.
sumption that peace is to come
soon. Until peace Is actually as
sured the attitude OF the Treas
ury and the attitude of the whole
United States government is
for the most vigorous prosecu
tion of the war, and the motto of
force against Ger many without
stint r limit will be acted up to
until peace Is an absolute accom-
plished fact.
One more Liberty Loan, at
least, is certain. The fourth
loan was popplarly called the
Fighting Loan, the next loan
may be fighting loan too, or it
may be a peace loan. What
ever the cnditlon, the loan must
be prepared for and Its success
rendered certain and absolute.
Begin now to prepare to support
1t.

SURVIVED ORDEAL AT SEA.

When the United States steam
ship Lake Moor was torpedoed off
the English coast Lieut.. Frank X.
Pulaski, U. S. N. r. f., was thrown
into the sea by the explosion. He
was drawn under by the suction, but
on coming to the surface grasped a
raft and clambered aboard, where
there were already eight others, in
Guiding the skipper. Floating about
in the open sea the men could still
observe the outlines of the German
submarine which had fired the tor
pedo. After drifting for several
hours two Of the men died. Their
bodies were consigned to the sea. The
men were finally rescued by a Nor
wegian merchant ship and taken to
Scotland. Lieutenant Pulaski, who
was one of the men saved after this
ordeal, had been on duty on the Lake
Moor since her launching at Duluth
in December. His home is in Chi
cago.

Before the war an American
Congress that appropriated as

SIX times as much as the total
annual expenses OF The Govern

little com ment. Moreover, even
the fact that the cost OF running
our Federal Government thus
year, including pay yments and au
thorlzitions, alreadyl amounts to
the enormous sum Of $36, 1876, 997,.
439, excites only passing interest.
This attitude is, OF course, due
TO the fact that these matters are
now completely overshadowed by
the epochmakipg events of the

Prays for Red Hair,

At religious meeting in Pennsyl-
vania a youth asked the prayers OF the
pastor and people in order that he
might become redheaded. 1t seems
that his hair was of yellowlsh-white
shade that was no color at all. He had
heard the red heads were good scrap
pers, and he was praying the Lord to
give him red hair so that he might go
forth to fight the kaiser. There's
something In this, too, and there's an
Idea abroad that n regiment Of auburn
haired Amazons could put crlmp in
the Prusslan quicker than n whole d.
vision OF mere chocolate-halred men.
For love or war give us the locks Of
fame.-Los Angeles Times.

masters Departments.

"Without fanfare and with next to
no publicity at all" writes Harold
Titus in Everybody's, "a chain of
colleges and universities that
stretches between the two oceans has
been enlisted where men are taught
to reader service in the ordnance de-
partment and quartermaster corps.
At intervals Of six weeks these
schools are sending out a total of
from 400 to 800 men who have un-
dergone a high-pressure course Of
study that has given them a founda.
tion upon which can be based thai
practical training at arsenal, depot
or cantonment, which will make
them indispensable in this problem
of grub and guns.
Gust recall that the ordnance
materials alone for the United
States army will require base depot
in France which will necessitate an
expenditure of $20,0OO,OOO. Con.
slider the tonnage that will pass
through such a station, then of the
number Of men who will be needed
to handle it properly to avoid waste,
delay, confusion. Without them the
army would be immobile, unfed, un.
supplied. By schooling these men,
the American university has rem
dered the army a service Of incalcul-
able value"

Hiratsukacho; things are more ex-
pensive in the large cities). "She
applied to herself the title Of Sho-
jim, master Of the house, accepting
my existence as that of a mere SUBJ
ordinate unessential. o. Matsu San
used to find eggs expensive at IS
cents dozen, and the extravagance
of paying l8 cents pound for por-
terhouse steak caused her to shed
salt tears. She would bargain with
the fsherwomen until she got de-
licious oysters at 3 cents a quart.
For roasting chickens she never paid
more than so cents apiece. For max
ing vegetable soup she used to rent
n fresh shinbone for 2I12 cents. When
she wanted to economize, she fed me
on pheasant, snipe, wild duck and

The Winter Vegetables.

ency that has developed us ava.
from the use Of the winter vege
tables" says Mrs. Eugene G
Benp. adviser on home and com
munlty interests for the Penn
sylvanla Department Of Agrlcul
ture. "We are getting so tina
we think 1t not refined to con
fess a liking for cabbage, sauer
kraut, turnlps, carrots and on
ions. They are homely old veg
etables and they make the
house smell like q cheap board
ing house to cook them, and thai
Is The prlncipel reason why We
dislike them. 1T is much
easier for tho housewife 10 open
a can of corn, peas or tomatoes
than TO prepare and cook the
winter vegetables. A nd n
winter time we often forget the
hot summer afternoons that we
spent IN putting these vege.
tables into the cans.
"War time conditions will
probably bring our common
sense TO bear on this as on many
another problem, as we shall
come TO see that we must con.
sumo the things that are at hand
to use IN their respective seasons
IN order TO save materials,
energy, time and expense.
"At market, recently, L saw
some beautiful cantaloupes

Study your cook book to

self that you do not give your
family warmed up potatoes tor
breakfast boiled ones for dinner
and fried for supper. Be sure
TO save the nlce smooth ones for
baking. Have a nice dish OF
scalloped potatoes TO surprise
them some day. Cream them in
stead Of frying for supper oc
cassionally. Dice the raw pota-
toes, cook a few minutes, and
cream them and add a little
touch OF cheese for Atvor. You
may think it tco much trouble to
French fry them, but 1t is very
little extra effort to cut them in
half fat ways, boil until tender
