War emergency kitchens of all sorts
and descriptions have sprung up over
the country like mushrooms to meet
the sudden need for community food
centers. They are places where
definite information and instruction
mny be given to help women In their
conservation problems, and where can
ming drying and war cooking may be
demonstrated and put into practice.
The canning kitchen Is the most com
mon of the new community enter
prises. Within year II has passed
the experimental stage and has become
IN established institution. Reports
from 81 kitchens In widely scattered
sections of the United States record
the saving of 205,527 quarts of fruits
and vegetables In 1917.
The kitchens have been organized
and financed In various ways. Expen-
ses nave been taken care OF by school
boards, boards of trade. business mems
associations. local committees of the
council Of national defense. loans from
banks or from individuals, gifts from
individuals and membership fees.
Some of the kitchens are mainly edu-
cational, and to them the woman
brings her own materials to can or dry
under supervision. A few take care
nf surplus or donated products only.
Another type combines both phases of
the work, canning donated surplus ne
well as giving instruction and helping
individuals. The most complete type
however. Is the all-the-year Kitchen
real community center-which com
hines with the other features the sale
of cooked foods and an exchange for
the sale of homemade products.

far from the city where the show had
been.
"They were taken up to a great tow

n window was opened and with few
words they were allowed to fly out Of
the window and told that they were
to fly home.
"But they didn't need to be told
that. They were eager to get home.
They wanted to see their friends and
about the show and the people they
had seen. They wanted to tell stories
of the nice little boys and girls who
had liked them and who had not
teased them.
"And, too, they wanted to tell Of the
horrid little boys and girls who had
teased them, trying to make them
jump and fly about in tiny cages. They
wanted any pigeons who ever had the
chance to take message to boys and
girls who teased little pigeons who
were in cages, patiently letting people
watch them and admire them and see
how many different kinds there were.
They wanted to send a message say.

tease us when We try to give you
pleasure while you watch us. We
try to look our best. Can't you be-

any creature in cage-sOmeOne who
