Can Make Sugarless
Apple Butter; Receipt
by College Experts

Sugarless applebutter may sound as
impossible as hamless ham and eggs,
but the Food Administrator. that
wizard of provender and cookery, de-
sugar can be as good as the kind
grandmother used to make, if the
proper procedure is followed in using
the substitute he herewith suggests.
At the same time he sounds hopeful
note for the future of the sugar
"Applebutter isn't going to be a
minus quantity this year, even though
sugar is" he said. Pennsylvania
State College has come to the rescue
through the Department of Home
Economics. which issues the following
tried and tested receipt:
Take one-half as much white corn
syrup as thick apple pulp. add one
teaspoonful of cinnamon to each
quart of the mixture and make
otherwise exactly as the applebutter
is made with sugar"
Simple. isn't it?' But it produces the
right result
incidentally, the Food Administra-
tor added this morning. all kinds of
the system being what is known as
sugar pack" The local Food Ad-
ministrator will supply information
and details upon request, and the
newspapers have carried full infor-
nation. Fruits canned without sugar
may be readily sweetened when used,
and the supply of sugar promises to
be more plentiful later in the fall and
early winter.
Hotel and restaurants are also urged
to use no sugar in canning. as they
use a very considerable amount of
sugar each year in this manner. Not
using IL at this time will greatly aid
the local situation.

Railroads to Employ -
Thousands of Women

Washington, Ang. 13.-Thousands
of women will be drawn into railroad
employment within the next few
months to take the places of men
entering the Army and going to 9TH
er Industries, according to plans now
being formulated by the railroad
administration. Women are to be
employed extensively as clerks in
railway offices, as expert account
ants, ticket sellers. station agents,
crossing watchers, car cleaners and
to some extent as track laborers.
This course will not result in the
dismissal of any men. since the de-
rnand for workers in nearly all fields
of railway employment already ex-
ceeds the supply.
The general policy of the railroads
will be to pay the same wages paid
men for similar service.

terfered in anyway with the work
OF the Harrisburg police department.
We thought it our duty ito confine
the duties of the ordnance police to
the necessities of the Middleiown
ordnance depot.
When the question arose regard
ing five-mile zone to include Har-
risburg in certain restrictions, we
did not favor 1T. out of regard for the
people of Harrisburg and that 1t in
|volved police matters concerning the
Harrisburg police force with whom
we desired to work in harmony. Not
withstanding our kindly feelings to-
ward Harrisburg police and an ever
readiness to cooperate, we not only
failed to receive cooperation. but on
a number of occasions our police and
employees here have been treated dis
courteously.
Existing conditions in Harrisburg
are just the kind that result in plac-
ing a commissioned officer and pro-
vost guard in charge. Harrisburg is
fortunate in having important mill
tary depots in close proximity to the
city. 1t is necessary to have SOL
diers and ploice guards. important to
preserve order, and is an encourage
ment to we'll behaved. orderly labor
ers and mechanics. No rowdyism is
allowed, liquor is barred and there
is no gambling.
THE policeand firemen employed
at the ordnance depot are carefully
selected men. They are uniformed,
and we'll disciplined, and have had
Regular Army. National Guard,
State Constabulary training. Men of
this caliber are always given first
consideration.
The police and firemen employed
formed so they could be distinguish
ede from civilians, and we have per-
sonal pride in their work and feel
personally responsible for their be-
havior. No one ever need question
as to where they belong. The uni
form tells it distinctly. The lieuten-
ants and sergeants are sworn and
bonded deputy sheriffs of Dauphin
county The Harrisburg police know
this. and instead of lending their
aid have on a number of occasions
made it unpleasant for ordnance
depot men, and shown no inclination
to cooperate in keeping good or

MARRIED HAPPINESS

Doctors claim man or woman

nerves are starved, they are depleted

is given to supply them with food
