New York - American precious
stones for jewelry purposes bid fair
to come into their own as a result of
the war. Manufacturing jewellers
have been compelled by the war con-
ditions to use more and more such
American gems as saphires, garnets
opals, turquolses, tourmalines, and
fresh water pearls.

HOW CRANDERRIES MAY
Be USED TO ADVANTAGE


"Cranberries are now in the mar
kets and we can NAVE as delightful
sauces and iellies as we ever made
without using any sugar at ALL" is the
conservation message sent out today
by Mrs. Morris Clifford chairman of
the Conservation Division of the Food
Administration in Kentucky, to her
lieutenants.
"Cranberries are always associated
with Thanksgiving and Christmas. and
this year many may hesitate to use
them because of the scarcity of SUI
gar" But they need not, because
cranberries may be served without
emptying the sugar bowl"
Mrs. Clifford recommends the fol-
lowing recipes, which have been test
ed by the Food Administration in
kitchen and laboratory:
Cranberry Sauce
Cranberries l quart.
Raisons, figs or coconut, cup.
Water, cups.
Sorghum or cane syrup, u cup.

pare raisins, cut in small pieces, and
add to cranberries and other ingred-
tents, and cook until tender.

| Cook cranberries in the water 90
minutes. Put through a sieve. This

NURSING STAFF
IDOLIZED BY WORKERS
Shipyard Hospital Head Has
Eye for Beauty in Choos.
ing Candidates

They've hired another nurse for the
Cramp shipyard. There are at present
only three nurses for II 900 shipworkers'
and they are hard to get. France Is
full OF American graduate nurses who
are kept busy nursing the soldiers.
OF course, the nursing stan at Cramps
is anxious to know who the fourth one
is TO be. So are the men around the
place. especially those who are still on
the hospital list, although working right
along.
But Doctor Ingram, head Of the hos
pital, is not quite ready to give out her
name. He hopes to do so in a day or
two. TIT new nurse will be nice. the
doctor says, but who can pick a beauty
for SO many different eyes?
The young women who have the care
of numerous injured men every day that
comes certainly have their hands full.
Not that many are hurt there each day,
but with convalescents and all the daily
average of ~dtspensary cases run any
where from twenty to 400.
There 10 a smile from these girls for
every patient, whether his eyes are
light or dark. They're nearly all men
who go TO this dispensary for relief,
and that makes 1t so much more in
terestirg TO the nurses. The girls in
the ONCE have no hazards in their work,
and as a rule they never have to face
the nurses save when a beauty spot
works over to the other side of the
map"
Nurses are not supposed to wear
1ewelry of any kind. especially on the
Job. unless 1t is a class ring. So, after
all. In her jewel box there may DO the
very thing you were looking for. and
that makes proposing to q nurse Q
rather hazardous thing to do until you
have won the confidence of her room
