lighted on Thursday to receive a tele-
gram from their son. Lieut.. Ernest
j. McLain. announcing his arrival in
New York from the European battle
front in response to military orders
In readiness for assignment as an in
structor at one of the. national army
cantonments in this country.
The message stated that he was
well and that he would shortly be de
tailed for instructional duty at one
of the army camps. but which one he
did not know. The telegram was as
unexpected as it was gratifying and
to say that Mr.. and Mrs. McLain
were delighted with its import is to
state it mildly.
Lieut.. McLain. who gave up his
senior years work in the law school
at the University of Denver to enlist
in the army, obtained his commission
in the first officers school conducted
at Camp Funston and landed on
French soil Oct. .. 1917. where he was
sent for observation purposes by the
war department. He has been in the
trenches since the first of December
and has had great opportunity of see.

and of familiarizing himself with
Boche methods of attack and defense.
At the time of his return To this
country he held the position OF regi-

POTATO RECIPES.
Potatoes for Wheat.

In urging the use OF potatoes as
wheat substitutes. recent ieafiiet is
sued by the Food Administration says:
"Our comrades across the sea need
wheat They need every bit we have
in this country. What would Ger
II the Hohenzoliern family demanded
wheat for the preservation of autoc-
racy. the German people would be
compelled to send the last grain. and
they would be compelled in the name
OF autocracy TO eat potatoes.
We can improve on that OF our
own free will we can send wheat for
liberty: out of love for our fellows
we can eat potatoes for democracy"
Aside from the purely patriotic duty
of using potatoes to save wheat. po-
tatoes in themselves are an excellent
food. Starch. which burned in the
body. gives energy. is supplied in
abundance by the potatoes. medi-
um-sized potato gives as much starch
as two slices of bread Potatoes can
save wheat. for when potatoes are
available less bread is needed. In
addition. potatoes. lik eother vegeta-
bles. supply salts needed by the body.
An old king tested each cook before
hiring him by having boil a potato.
Even a good potato may be spoiled by
a poor cook.
The following recipes. which have
been thoroughly tested by the Food
Administration. give several methods
by which delicious potato dishes may
be prepared:
Baked Potatoes.
Select smooth, medium sized pota-
toes. Scrub with small vegetable
brush and bake in hot oven for
about forty minutes or until soft. Re
move from the oven. break the skin
slightly in order that the steam can
escape. and serve as quickly as possi-
BILE
Boiled Potatoes.
Select potatoes OF uniform size.
Wash clean and without pairing or else
pairing on only the thinnest possible
layer of skin. drop at once into cold
water to keep from becoming black.
Cook the potatoes In saited boiling
water until soft, which can be easily
determined by piercing with n fork.
When the potatoes are done drain i'm.
mediately. shake until dry. sprinkle
with little added salt and let stand
uncovered In hot place until serv-
ing time. II potatoes are boiled with
their jackets ON. cut a narrow band
of skin from the center of each potato
before boiling. This aids in removing
the skin before the potato is eaten.

1t is believed that the report tha. Max Poclmann, former Seward boy was killed in France, is untrue. The official casualty list of September 7 contained the name of Arthur Poh'' man, next of kin. Otto Pohlman, Sew ard. Nebraska" Tclegraphing o' names from the battlefront, then " cable across the Atlantic and then tc various cities where the casualty Ii are printed for distribution to th' newspapers, is TO small task and it was believed that the 'Pohlman" mrr toned was our own town boy. Letters have however boon received from Mr and Ms. Otto Pochlm&m, dated Oct" 10th. and no mention has been mad' of the death of Max, so it is aImo ' absolutely certain that the boy IS St'Il alive and fighting his way to Berlin Several letters have also been rccc'N- ed from "thc front" with dates Of September 5th and 1lth, and no men ton has been made of the death o' any former Seward boy

LONDON FOOD CARDS

London, Feb. 25.--Saturday was the
last day on which persons living in Lon
don and the Immediately adjoining coun-
ties could buy meat. margarine and but
ter without producing ration card
When the stores opened this morning the
new plan was in operation and every
one is compelled to produce ration card
before making any purchases of the
above mentioned articles, which are very
scarce.
The newspapers give prominence to the
fact that King George has his food and
meat cards, like every other person in
the city.
Voluntary rationing died hard. Long
lines of people stood before the meat
markets and margarine stores Saturday.
In most cases thousands sought in vain
to get extra supplies to tide them over
the still leaner days TO come
A few days of grace have been granted
tardy ones through the issue of emergen-
cy cards, which entitle them to supplies
until they receive their regular cards.
but the majority have cards and have
been card indexed. The last unrationed
dinner was served yesterday.

Although no figures were given out
officially, 1t is understood that approx

the federal government in the construc-
ton of railroad yards and warehouses
there, and that Boston will be one of
the leading shipping eenters and ports

Whether the federal government is to

has not yet been disclosed here, but a
feeling prevails that the federal au

been restored.
