Keeping Workers Amused

"The greateat problem with war workers b

in charge Of the welfare work ut the United
States Explosives Plant &C" at Nitro w. va. "For
unless the workers are able to find entertainment
they won't work.
AT the present time there are $4,000 workmen
mt Nitro and 1t is planned to increase that number
to 10000. But despite the high wages 1t Is din.
cult to keep the $1,000 there Wages are almost
unbeeyaby high. For example Office boys are
started at $75 month; stenographers at $50.
and I have seen the weekly pay envelopes Of
many carpenters with more than 500 Inside.
However, 1t ID an actual fact that 20 per cent Of
the workmen who are transported there at the
expense Of the government disappear en- route
and more than 50 per cent of those who arrive do
not stay more than two or three days.
"You see. Nitro Is a town abou, twelve
miles from Charlestown. w. Va. It's IN dry sec
ton Of the country with absolutely nothing to at
tract workers except high wages. And soon
as the majority of workers save a bnnk roll they
depart for pleasanter and wetter clinhes.
That's why a welfare department has been es-
tablshed ut this plant, where million pounds Of
powder VIII be manufactured daily when every.
thing Is in operation. 1t was found that unless
the men were amused when they finished their
work they simply wouldn't remain-no matter
what wages were paid.
"Of course we do all the welfare work that is
being done in the most modern plants. We have
various kinds Of hospitals free medical attention
and all that sort Of thing We even fill the teeth
Of the workmen free Of charge. Houses are be.
Ing built SO that the workmen may bring their
families and there is everything for their crea.
ture comforts. but that isn't enough. The work.
men miss the excitement Of life In the big cities
they miss the lights, the rush and that feeling
of being in the SWIM 80 to speak. While they
were merely onlookers they felt that they were
taking part in the days events. When they get
to Nitro they soon become dissatisfied and de-
pressed.
"A person who has never worked in place Of
this kind cannot appreciate how essential amuse-
ment Is to his well being. But must say that We
are doing everything possible to keep the workers
happy and contented. I'm here in New York to
recruit band and arrange for the appearance OF

Care Of Kitchen Equipment.

American women as class have
not practiced economy to any extent
in the care Of household equipment,
the states relations service Of the
department Of agriculture believes.
There generally has been sufficient
money to buy new article when It
was needed, or when there was wish
to buy, and the market has been well
supplied with new devices to tempt
the housewife. Now it Is impossible
to purchase some Of the simplest arti-
cles because they are not being manu-!
featured. The housekeeper is sud-
denly confronted with the unusual
value of little things and the present
Is the opportunity to acquire habits Of
thrift.
AreYou Guilty Of These Mlsdemeanorsf
The want of thought In the caro-
and use Of equipment is often the
cause Of it's short life. Some Of the;
apparently trifling mistakes which
cause utensils and tools to wear OUT
before they should are the following:
Contents of saucepans and kettles,
boiled until dry and the metal over
heated.
Handles, screws and fastenings Of
knives. forks. egg beaters, etc.. loos-
ened from having been left in hot
water. I
Metal utensils put away wet, caus- ,
ing them to rust.
Covers put away wet with steam AZ
they are taken of the saucepan.
Brooms and brushes used continu-
ally on one side and worn to a point.
Brooms allowed to stand on the!
floor until their weight bends or
breaks the straw.
Glasses broken because the bottom,
instead Of the side Is put into hot!
water.
China dulled by washing with too
strong sonpsuds.
Liquids spilled on rugs or polished
surfaces because the container was
too full.
Contents of the saucepan boiled
over on the stove or in the oven be-.
cause allowance was not made for the
expansion Of liquids by heat.
Burners Of gas and oil stoves clog
ged and useless by burned food.
Rugs torn by having been held BY
the edge while shaking in cleaning.
Glazing Of porcelain and enameled
sinks, tubs and wash bowls scratched,
and broken by cleaning with coarse
cleaning materials.
Finish of furniture marred by plac-
ing hot dishes, medicine bottles and
by splitting liquids on 1t.
Furniture cracks and parts loosened
because the oil bath and rub are not
applied regularly.
China broken in the refrigerator by
placing heavier dishes on 1t.
Dish towels scorched and stained
when used for oven cloths and to lift
hot saucepans from the stove.
Vanished and oiled woodwork
spoiled by washing with soap.
Springs in beds. couches and chairs
and other pieces Of furniture broken
by allowing children to Jump and play
too roughly on them.

ages to save a little each day from
the amount usually spent for food
without reducing the nutritive value
of the meals she serves her family.
The following tells one way 1t can
be done. A farmers wife not long
ago cooked for her family delicious
stew. It was made from two pounds
of beef, combined with vegetables
carrots. onions and potatoes. and was
attractively served In q border Of
steamed rice. 1t made an appetizing
dish for the family dinner.
The Stew Which saved Nest
A neighbor woman partook Of the
meal and went home and prepared an
other beef vegetable stew. Her stew
furnished just as much nourishment
for her family as her neighbours but
cost rs cents less. She used but one
pound Of beef instead Of two and the
same kinds Of vegetables. In both
cases two cupfuls of rice were used
but In the latter case the rice was
cooked in two quarts Of skim milk
instead of water. One cupful of rice, as
most housekeepers know. will absorb
from four to six cupfuls Of milk II

way has a richness and flavor which

This is just one of the ways in which
the use Of skim milk can help SAVE
