MRS. FELLOW-CITIZEN

We take off our hat respectfully
to Mrs. Fellow Citizen, created in
Oklahoma yesterday by the procla-
nation OF Governor Williams TO the
effect that the equal suffrage amend
ment was carried by vote OF the
people (male only at the recent
election and now is 4 part OF the
state constitution.
Hereafter "a vote OF the people
will mean all OF the people who are
u years OF age or more and who
will admit it. From now on women
also are people. They are citizens.
They have equal political rights,
and in time they are going to have
equal civil rights.
If you read the Ardmoreite care
fully yesterday, as you should have
done if you do your duty, you must
have observed two or three little
news stories of apt significance in
connection with the important one
which told of the governors action
in proclaiming the suffrage amend
ment adopted. In Cleveland the
male motornien and conductors
went on strike and tied up the whole
street car system because the man
agement had not discharged a few
female conductors. In London a

ers, dropped from the payroll be-
cause there no longer is any need

great good accomplished by the war

the tramp, in the opinion of John
Steele, a Salvation Army officials.
Before the war" said Mr.. Steele,
this home was overcrowded with
men out of work, men who did not
want to work, and men who could
not ork because they were addicted
to drink or to drugs. Enforced ab-
stinence from the latter two evils
has reduced the number, and en-
forced work has made men out of
many loafers. Today we have only

SCHOOL FOR ARMY COOKS
Largest Institution OF Kind Con-
Quoted by Government at Camp
Bowie, Texas.

Philadelphia North American: 900
skilled cooks, trained for overseas
duty, have been graduated in classes
OF 800 from the government school
for cooks and bakers, the largest
school of its kind in the country,
which is being conducted al Camp
Bowie, Fl. Worth, Texas under the
command OF Capt. Fred II. Morrell.
Students graduating must reach the
following standard: Practical work,
so per cent; recitation and theory,
20 per cent; care OF kitchen, 5 per
cent and discipline, IS per cent. The
majority OF those graduated have
been taken from the course for sec
ond cooks. with first cooks next in
number and mess sergeants third.
The course includes lectures and
instruction on rations, bills of fare,
component parts, field specifications,
preparation, sanitation. temperature
mess management, stock sheets, field
cooking, recipes and visits to the
packing houses here. An understand
ing OF food values most needed to
suit conditions existing in various
places is being drilled into the stu
dents.
Great attention also is given to
food conservation. The army must
not waste, and cooks are taught to
throw all particles of meat and bone
into a twenty-galon pot, where the
mixture is boiled and the fat rem
dered. The stock is then used for
gravies and soups.
Some companies here require the
men to weigh what is left on their
plates and the amount is deducted
from the next meal, thus adjusting
the food needed to their appetites.
The sanitation course requires the
mess officers to keep kitchen, mess
hall, refrigerators, ovens and cook
ing utensils hygienically clean. This
applies to tables and floors. How to
set the tables is an important part or
the study.
Experiments are conducted to de-
wise means of using substitutes for
flour, such as oatmeal, cornmeal and
rice flour. Use of syrup instead of
sugar wherever possible is encour-
aged.
Food wastage," said Captain
"is not always the fault OF
the soldier at the mess table. The
cook is often to blame. Ii he does
not cook the food right it will be
to the men and they will
refuse to eat all set before them. The
well-cooked meal puts the men in

for making munitions, marched to
the official residence of Premier
Lloyd George and demanded that
he see them.
A suggested subtitle for the
great war, in future histories, is
The Awakening OF Woman"
Women have discovered that they
can do mems work. Men must dis
cover that they are not the only
pebbles on the beach of industry.
Unfortunately there is going to be
more or less trouble before the re-
adjustment is made, but it is the
part of wisdom to accept the
things that are and not to kick
over the traces in a vain effort to
pull the world along in single har-
ness any more.
SO far as Oklahoma is concerned
there probably won't be any serious
industrial disturbance because OF
the awakening OF woman; but il
there should be, we desire to make
it plain right here that We are neu-
tral, that we don't take no sides"
but will stand off and let 'cm fight
it out between 'cm. However, un-
less the fight is fair and square on
both sides we may have to step in
between the combatants in the nom
character OF an umpire.
Otherwise we elect to be the inno-
cent bystander.
But as to the new Oklahoma yot-
cr, Mrs. Fellow-Citi2cn, we ayow
no neutrality. We are with her and
ior her. We welcome her TO our
midst and extend the right hand
Vi llowship.
