Cass county branches. 1t reads as
follows:
Your letter of March / received.
At the present time we are asking
our lEnitters to make only socks. Our
supply Of other knitted articles is
sufficient to care for the demands
during the cold weather, but the re-
quest for socks has come repeatedly
from France, and these requests we
are very anxious to fill as soon as
possible.
If by chance you have women in
the chapter who will not knit socks

More Liberal Use of Vegetables
Urged As Necessary War Measure

Vegetable Cookery is the subject
Of the March series Of food conser-
walton demonstrations by Miss Julia
| Newton, home demonstration agent,
which series began Monday after
noon with a largely-attended meet
ing at the Cathedral cluG rooms. This
subject is one Of the most important
ones taken up in these demonstra-
tions, as housewives are being urged
this season to substitute vegetables
in every possible case for the foods
which the government Is asking all
to save for shipment to the soldiers
and war stricken countries abroad.
In the course Of her lecture Miss
Newton strongly advocated the
planting Of gardens by everyone who
can do so, and the recipes which she
demonstrated and gave out were de-
signed not so much to teach the
women how to cook properly, as to
suggest more varied uses Of certain
vegetables, so they may not become
distasteful from monotony.
Helpful Suggestions.
The pamphlets on vegetable
Cookery" distributed by Miss New
ton are Of timely interest. As to
selection and preparation Of yege-
tables they give the suggestion that
all green vegetables should be crisp
and firm when put on to cook, and
If they are not in this condition, they
should be put in cold water until
crispness does return. Vegetables
that form in heads should be thus
soaked from 20 to 80 minutes in salt
ed water, to which a few teaspoon
tuls Of vinegar may be added. EN-

are itemized: Sterilizing anything
from doubtful sources; softening or

digestive juices; modifying or devel-

vegetables should be cooked as soon
as possible after gathering, because

PAID HIGH PRICES THEN, TOO
During Civil War Coffee Was Four
Times Present Price, Groceries
More Than Double,

Some one has dug up an invoice
of bill of goods sold by firm of
wholesale grocers of Keokuk, Ia, in
June, 1862, says the Philadelphia
Records which shows that sugar was
$58 barrel and rice $38, while tea
sold at $101 for 25-pound chest.
Coffee was four times the present
price, and the same bill Of groceries
which then brought SCALA could be
purchased today for $291.61.
Those were the days of the Civil
war, which accounts for the soaring
prices, Nowadays when people kick
over paying 8 or 10 cents a pound
for sugar and moderate sums for tea
and coffee, they may find some con-
ISOLATION in knowing that their grand
parents were in much worse plight.
Compared with most of the world,
the United States is standing the
stress and strain of the present war
with comparatively little discomfort.

COWARD AT0NED FOR MISTAKE
Frightened Air Fighter Fled Leaving
comrade but Returned to Battle
and His Death.

Just how high-spirited the allied
aviator is can only be guessed from
the stories of his daily life that come
back to the civilian world.
Laurance La Tourette briggs,
who has collected the hero tales of
the air scouts on the western front,
says in recent issue of the Out
look: of medals and military
crosses were consistently awarded,
every airman would of necessity be
almost daily decorated. His oppor-
tunities are always thick upon him.
Embracing death is easy to the air
man, compared to the pain of con-
Tossing a shameful act to his fellows.
That kind of torture eventually
drives the remorseful pilot to DELHI
crate suicide.
"The story Of one such episode is
well-known to the older members of
our rps. One poor frightened lad
who fled in terror and left fellow
scout alone to fight his way clear of
an overwhelming force returned
headlong into the combat a few min
utes later and hurled his machine
deliberately into the nearest enemy
airplane. Both machines fell to-
gether, their wings broken and both
engines blazing with fierce flames.
By common consent the enemy air
fighters withdrew from the field
all knowing too well the cause of this
terrible sacrifice. Impelled by that
noble chivalry of the air service they
paid tribute to this desperate act of
atonement."

The WHITE House,


1t has been on my mind for some
time to thank your organization for
the very real help it has given to
America in the struggle that is con
cerned with every fundamental ele-
ment of national life. Your speak
ers, going from community to com
munity, meeting people in the trend
ly spirit engendered by years of
intimate and understanding contact,
have been effective messengers for
the delivery and Interpretation of
democracy's meaning and impera-
tive needs. The work that the
Chautauqua is doing has not lost
Importance because of war, but
rather has gained new opportunities
for service.
Let me express the hope that you
will let no encouragement weaken
your activities, and that the people
will not fail in the support of a pa
triotic institution that may be said
to be an integral part of the nation
al defense.
Cordially and sincerely yours,
WOODROW WILSON.
