ROOKIE GETS HIS INTERVAL
ut Lasts Fifteen Minutes and is Taken
/ Up Most With Converse
ton.

Camp Wadsworth, Spartanburg. s.
CA bunch of new draft men were
marching across camp in charge of a
sergeant who occasionally sung out
sharply: Keep your intervals"-this
being military term used In keeping
the squads at the proper distance from
each other.
One Of the rockies complained to
the captain: "Say, Cap. the guy that
brung us over here told us to keep
our intervals. They haint gimme one
yet,
Is that sol" unused the officer,
thoughtfully. swell, when you get
through medical examination tell the
personnel officers about 1t. You must
have an interval, by all means. Try
ito make them give you one before
might"
When the rookie demanded savage
ly lster that Captain Coffin, person
mel officer, Issue him an interval the
captain gave him one of fifteen min
utes, taken up with very earnest con-
yersation.

Community Drying Plants are Being
Set Up in Many Places.

Last year the air was fragrant
with the steaming juices of the yege-
tables and fruits the women were
canning. This year the effort is be-
ing made to preserve even more of
these products. But food conser-
vers are emphasizing also the de-
STABILITY of the drying or dehydrat-
ing process, that is the extraction of
the water. Community drying
plants are being set up in many plac-
es, so that any one can take small
quantities Off vegetables and fruits
to them, and have them prepared to
save for the winter.
Every fall a great volumn of vege
tables and fruits rot on the ground.
They are SO abundant that it does
not pay to pick them UP. Now if at
that time of surplus they could be
preserved by the drying or other pro-
cess, all this vast amount of nutri-
ton is saved 1t tends to stabilize
and equalize prices throughout the
year. and supply nourishing food at
times when prices are exorbitantly
high.
Another point is that the drying
process saves great quantities of
small vegetables and fruits that do
not sell well on the market. People
do not like to buy small specimens
of potatoes, apples, or other vege-
tables. But the small ones mix in
with the dried product and are equal
ly suited to it.
One reason for food shortage is
that the farmers hate to plant large
quantities of vegetables because they
spoil if not sold promptly. If there
were drying plants everywhere, so
that farmers could dispose of their
surplus at a fair price, much larger
supplies of vegetables would be plant
ed.
There would seem to be a chance
for the establishment of plants to dry
these products on a big commercial
scale, and all that is needed to edu-
cate the public to the advantage of
this process. People who use dried
products say they are as attractive
to the taste as canned foods, and
often hardly distniguishable from the
original article.

TOSS HATS INTO THE WATER
United States Marines Have supersti.
ton That There Is Luck
+ in II.

Port Royal, S. C.-Instead of "toss-
ing their hats in the ring" the U. s.
marines now toss 'em in the water.
Tossing their hats in the ocean for
luck was adopted as one of the marine
customs when gust of wind snatched
the chapeau of recruit while he was
crossing the bay off Paris Island. s.
c., the marines training camp The
, Slid" sailed gracefully out into space
and was soon bobbing merrily on the
dancing waves.
Taking the accident as cue "just
for luck" the remainder of the re-
cruits Immediately sailed their hats
out into the deep, and the bay was
soon dotted with hundreds of straw
hats.
The boys passed the word" and
now no recruit can expect to have
good luck unless he has cast his hat
upon the receding tide.

CREDIT AND CAPITAL.
Majority People Could Afford 10 Pay
Cash to Merchants, and Relieve
Big Burden

One of the speakers at the recent
meeting of the Retail Credit Mems
National Association at Boston a
few days ago made@an urgent plea
that the sale of food and home ne
cessaries be put on a strictly cash
basis. He urged this as war time
necessity, and showed how it would
release capital needed for the defense
of the nation.
When we telephone an order to
the store and ask to have it delivered
on credit, we do not stop to think
how that kind of thing is tying up
the capital Of the whole country. AS
a result of that popular habit, store
needs two or three times as much
capital as should be necessary. At
any given time a great share of its
capital is in the form of small debts
owed by its customers.
1t has to borrow enough money to
give it funds to work with, to Offset
those debts. If the proprietor does
not have to borrow, the credit sys-
tenn prevents him from investing III
Liberty bonds or productive enter
prises.
Some years there was said to be
surplus of capital, and 1t loaned at
low rates Of interest There was
more excuse for the credit system In
those days. Now there is a scarcity
of capital. The Liberty bonds will
take such large share of the
country's wealth, that it will be hard
to find funds enough to keep the en-
terprises of the country running.
A very large share of the capital
of the nation today rendered nom
productive by being tied up in the
form Of small debts. The great ma
jority of people could afford to-pay
cash, and reduce the amount of
capital 1t takes to run stores. This
would enable stores to sell cheaper.
1t would enable us to finance the
war with greater ease, and help de-
velop the country and keep its manu-
featuring industries going.

SMOKED GLASSES
FOR SUN ECLIPSE

Get an old piece of glass window
pane and smoke it SO you can peek.
Ray folks are going to have a free
treat. That is it will be a treat if
you are interested in astronomy Ac
cording to the wise men of the big
observatories on the afternoon of
June 9Th, of this year, the wonderful
spectacle of a total solar eclipse will
be visible, weather permitting, over
a track extending from the Pacific
Washington to the Atlantic (Flori-
da). This track of the moons shad-
oW is 70 miles wide at the western
coast, narrowing to 40 miles in
Florida
For about an hour the moon will
gradually encroach upon the suns
disk, the daylight will fade, then the
narrowing crescent of the sun will
suddenly disappear, and around the
jet-black ball of the moon, hanging in
the northwestern sky among the
brighter stars, will be seen the pearly
radiance of the MYSTERIOUS solar cor
ona. The remarkable spectacle may
be enjoyed for 1872 seconds at the
western coast, and for half that time
in Florida. Then the crescent of the
sun will lappear on the other (west-
ern) side of the moon, and after an
other hour the full disk of the sun
will shine as usual.
This event happens at any one
place, on the average, only three
times in thousand years. So you
see Ray will have a treat.
