Two AUDUBON BOYS
INJURED in BATTLE
BOTH YOUNG MEN WERE IN THE.
BIG DRIVE THAT BEGAN
ON JULY 18TH

Mrs. Bert McLeran received word
from the department at Washington
ID. C. that her brother. Charles
Evans had been severely injured
on the battle fields in France on July
26th. Nothing more than the an
nOuncement was received. Private
Evans is on the firing line with the
hundreds of other young men from
southwestern Iowa.
Yesterday Mrs. Phil Crow received
word from the war department that
her brother Fred Eckles had also
been injured. Fred is a cook and
only recently he received a shell
shock from which he suffered a
nervous breakdown that made it nee
cessary for him to go to the base
hospital.
Audubon people greatly regret to
learn of their being injured Fight
ing along the western front has been
terrific since July 18th when the
huns made their third offensive. 1t
is wonder that not more of the
boys were killed or injured. 1t is
estimated that the casualty list
since July 18th to date will reach
in the neighborhood of $4,000 to Is,
900. A small list of casualties is
being published in the daily papers

SUGAR SAVING PROGRAM

Causes of Shortage II. Sub.
marine sinkings. 2. Losses of beet
sugar lands and factories in battle
areas. One fourth of the world sup
ply of sugar is produced in enemy
territory. 3. Curtainment of ship
ping.
Program to meet Shortage
Rigid restrictions have been placed
on all manufacturers of candy, ice
cream, and other products. 2
| Households are allowed maximum
of two pounds per person per month
| exclusive of canning requirements
purchases not more than two pounds
at one time in cities and five pounds
| in the coLntry. Extra sugar per-
mitted for canning. The success OF
this program rests on the honor and
cooperation of the householders.
Quantity to be Used-One and a
half ounces or three tablespoons sug-
ar. honey. molasses or syrup per day
will be all we need to make food
palatable. Economic by using
dates, rasins, and figs in place OF
sugar with cereals. Use fruit and
nut CONNECTIONS. Use honey, syrup.
maple sugar and molasses in cakes,
cookies and desserts. Thinner syrup
or no syrup in canning, no frostings
unless without sugar.
Ways Sugar is Wastei-In coffee
cups. and iced tea glasses, leavings
in cereal bowls and saucers, sugar
spilled in little lots in cooking, sug-
ar spilled in measuring for cooking,
sugar used for caramel favorings,
sugar spoiled by careless cooking,
cake or dessert thrown away.
Candy-Enough canGy is used in
the United States in one year to keep
France or England in sugar for one
year.
The money spent in candy in
the United States is double the am
cunt required to feed Belgium for
one year
Beverages-Honey and syrup may
be usedin beverages. Dissolve these
in the pitcher to avoid waste. Gull
tiyate a taste for less sweet drinks
Canning and Sugar
is preventative only when used in
jams and jellies.
l. Use no sugar. Fruits and
fruit juices may be successfully kept
without sugar by using the cold
pack method. They may be made
into sauces, jellies or syrups as need
ed
2. Use a thin syrup. In canning
acid fruits use / measure of sugar
l measure of corn syrup and three
measures Of water.
In canning other fruit use u to
"a measure of sugar, l measure of
corn syrup and measures of water.
3. Use " sugar and 1s corn syr-
up in jams and jellies. More failures
in jelly making are due to the use
of too much sugar than to any other
cause
The following proportions give
satisfactory results. Use the richest
formula with the more acid fruit.
u cup sugar, ga GUY corn syrup
| pound fruit.
z cup sugar. Y cup corn syrup,
1 pound fruit
S-4 cup sugar " tbsp. salt,
pound fruit.
The following desserts may have
sugar substitutes used in pre-war
recipes.
Custards. junkets, gelatin, des-
serts, clear jellies, frozen dishes, ice
cream, puddings steamed, cereal
tapioca, cookies and cakes.

Friend Frank:
l will write you a few lines this
evening to let you know | am well
and happy. l have been doing lots
of moving the last few weeks. We
don't stay in one place long enough
have been on foot with about a rs
pound pack We liked about twenty
miles one time and about fourteen
another. The best of it was We thot
we were going to get TO rest on the
Fourth of July. but about eleven
o'clock the night of the third we got
orders to move and by one We were
on the road. We liked all night and
most of the forenoon of the fourth
and when we got to go to bed it
was on a hard floor but belive me,
| sure did sleep We are at diff
ferent front than before. Things
are rather lively up here.
l see Earnest Reed once in a while
he is Company runner in his COM
pany and he is one of the busiest
soldiers in France, doing his best all
the time. All the boys in the l6Sth
from Audubon are o. X. and are
ready to go any route TO tame old
Bill and his gang. We will do it be-
| fore We get home too. The French
are great fighters. they are slow to
act but they certainly understand
this warfare. | saw them blow up
some German ammunition yesterday
1t must have been a large plant as it
sure made a lot of smoke. When l
was in the trenches the last time, |
stood on hill in q wood and watch
| ed the Germans lombard a town.
| They shot over lots of gas and high
explosives. 1t sure was a sight and
made our blood boil, ! have been
| in several gas attacks but never got
any gas. had my mask on several
hours one night. There is things
I would rather wear than a gas mask
as they have to be so tight on our
| faces.
We boys overhere are sure proud
of Audubon. she is furnishing her
share of men and money, | saw in
the paper where she went over the
top in the last Liberty Loan. They
go over different kind OF top than
we do but it counts Just as much.
| Do you ever hear anything from
Bill Roth? The marines have been
doing some good work and / saw
them.
l knew some OF the boys from
Atlantic that was killed, Irwin Nc
| Conlee was a friend OF mine. He
sure was a fine boy. | was in the
trenches the time he was killed
| l would like to meet some of the
Audubon boys that are over here but
never have seen any except those in
the 16Sth.
Have any OF the boys that were
in Deming got here yet? l suppose
the boys that came back to boost the
Liberty Loan have told you just how
we do things over here.
| The French raise quite a lot OF
barley and wheat. They have some
good crops too. They haven't the
up-to-date farming machinery that
we have in the states. Most all they
have is made in the states. 1t looks
| funny to see them cutting with a
scythe. They don't seem TO be able
to learn how to hitch up team.
They put one horse in front of the
other. Well Frank this is getting
rather long so l had better close.

HUNDREDS ATTEND
PUBLIC FAREWELL
EXTENSIVE ARRANGEMENT Is
MADE FOR ENTERTAINMENT
OF MANY GUESTS

The home of Mr.. and Mrs. Aug
ust Johnson. nine miles east of the
city was the scene of merry party
last Friday evening. The occasion
being a farewell for the twin boys
who were to leave on Tuesday for
Jefferson Barracks, Mo.
Mr.. Johnson had made extern
sive arrangements to entertain all
who could come. A general invi-
tation had been extended and no
less than one thousand people ac-
cepted of Mr.. and Mrs. Johnson's
hospitality.
Mr.. Biggs, the county agent for
the Delco lighting system had wired
the lawn in front of the house so
there would be plenty of light. A
large platform had been built for
dancing and other arrangements
made to show all who came de-
lightful evening.
The Audubon Concert Band went
out early in the evening and for an
concerts. About ten O'Clock the
North Branch orchestra arrived on
the scene and the the dancing fes-
tivities began which lasted until
three o'clock in the morning.
About eleven o'clock ice cream,
cake, cigars and chewing gum was
served the guests, and the manner
in which so large a crowd was
handled was conclusive evidence
that Mr.. and Mrs. Johnson knew
how to do things on a large scale.
Mr. and Mrs. Johnson have the
reputation of doing things right, and
this certainly proved that their rep
utation was well founded. They
did everything to make their friends
enjoy the evening with the boys and
we'll did they succeed.
Many regret that it is necessary
for these splendid young men to
leave home, but their parents give
them freely and they go willingly at
the call of their country to make the
world safe for future generations.
The young men are admired by all
who know them. They took the
demonstration modestly and were
emily too glad to be of service to their
country and their flag.
1t was an occasion that will not
soon be forgotten, and it will be a
pleasant memory to both the young
men after they have gone to camp
and later out on the battlefelds.
While they are gone away from
home they will in nowise be forgot
