Washlnnton Ate Hoe Cakes.

There was no wheat shortage in America when George Washington was wealthy Virginia planter, before the Revolution, yet that eminent patriot set an example in the conservation of flour which citizens of today would do well to follow says an exchange.
 Wheat is not essential to satisfy ing meal, the food administrator points out Corn is an excellent substitute. The following excerpt from Irving Life of Washington" is interesting now in view of the agitation for 9 wheatlcss diet:
 He was an early riser, often before dayhre0k in the winter when the nights were long. He breakfaSted at seven in summer, at eight in winter. Two small cups of tea and three or four cakes of Indian meal (called hoe cakes) formed his frugal repast.'
 It Is said that. even in the days Of plenty big spreads were an intrequent occurrence in the Washington home.

FIRST WHITE BOY
Youth Accompanied Columbus
 Expedition in 1492.
Detailed at Helm While Superiors Slept, Youngster Was Blamed
 for Wreck of Santa Maria.

Many phases of the life of COlum- bus offer mysteries that the histori- ans have never been able to clear away, and one student of the life of the great explorer has come across an incidental mystery that has an ap- pealing interest. It relates to a boy who accompanied the expedition of 1492-the only boy among it's mem bers, and consequently the first white boy to set foot in America.
 The contemporary accounts of the first expedition of Columbus mention the boy In question only once and that briefly. They indicate that he was the only boy in the expedition and they place on his young shoul- ders the blame for the great catas- trophe that befell when the Santa Maria was wrecked on the coast of Hayti. To be sure the story of the wreck shows that the boy was less easy enough to make him the scape- goat. It was the night before Christ mas, 1492, ten weeks after the dis covery of the land, and Columbus was pushing his search for gold among the West Indies. The flagship, the Santa Maria, was skirting the coast of Hay ti, and late at night, as the wind was light and the ship barely moving, Col umbus went to his cabin for rest. He passed the helm over to the captain. He, too. soon felt the need of sleep and went below. His successor at the tiller was a sailor and he shortly fol- lowed the example of the admiral and the master. Before he went he awak- ened the lad in question and told him to mind the helm.
 The boy did not go to sleep. He was doubtless live lad and he felt the importance of being trusted to steer the ship. But he was in strange waters and the currents were treach- erous near that coast, says an ex- change. The ship struck q reef. The admiral and crew rushed on deck in terror. Of course they blamed the boy. That was the way of the world before 1192 and the fashion has never changed.
 That was the end of the Santa Maria. The crew reached the shore in safety and made a fort from the timbers of the wreck. In that fort, which they called La Navidad in honor of the day. about forty of the crew remained while their companions went home to Spain on the Plnta and the Nina. One historian mentions a tradition that the boy remained with this number, but it is only tradition. The fate of the forty is a mystery, for when the second expedition of Colum- bus reached that island a year later there were only few charred timbers and bones to he found. Perhaps the boy perlshed there. His name has not even come down to us but the brief glimpse that we have of him Is fas- chatting one. There is something to stimulate the imagination in that feeting picture of the boy who stuck to his post while his superiors slept.

Overcomlna CamoufIaae.

An American physicist believes that the advantages of camoufage-or at least certain kinds of camoutiage- can be overcome by m opposing army by providing its airmen and other scouts with colored glasses or screens of contrasting colors to use with field glasses. notes Popular Mechanics Magazine. When the colors of these screens are properly selected, unl- forms and other objects may be made to appear in contrast, instead of in harmony with their surroundings, he claims. CamOuflage as practiced in many cases is accomplished largely by the use of paint, objects being given shades. that blend with the landscape. Tn spite of certain difficulties that would arise, it is believed that such efforts at concealment could be rem dered quite intellectual by the means stated.

Lesson in Thorough Bass.

CARRIES BIG WEDDING FEAST
Father Remembers His Days of De. spair When He Invites Guests for
 the Sumptuous Repast.

Twenty years ago Max Gootschneider landed in New York with a slim young Wife, baby girl that could just toddle, Hj0 m money and a hopeful disposition. ihe hrSt few weeks in the strange America was a period of such forlorn and homesick misery that Max never forgot them.
 And so, when Max and Mrs. Max, no longer slim, sat in their fine house discussing the details of a celebration which might be suitable to signalize the engagement of the only daughter or a prosperous furrier to marry a rich young diamond merchant, Max had an idea, says the Cincinnati Times Star.
 Mamma" he said, "you remember when we landed in New York-you and Carrie, our baby, and me? You remember how it was for us then? We'll, we shall give a feast for our daughter Carrie, and her young man, but we will give it to the people who are now like we were then. Our friends are happy. They are not hun gry. They are not sOrrowful because there is no one to cheer them up. They do not need feast like the poor peo- pie that have come from the old coun- try. Those are the people who shall enjoy our Carries wedding feast"
 And so the feast was given, away down in East Broadway in the build ing which is occupied by the Hebrew Immigrants Sheltering Aid society, and which overflows nowadays with hundreds of misery-stricken people from the countries at war in Europe
 There was a room where 150 per sons could eat at once. As soon as one crowd of 150 had finished. another came In. There were no invitations and no red tape Max and Mrs. Max and the pretty Carrie and her proud husband-to-be stood at the door and smilingly welcomed all who came. There was chicken and duck and goose and gefilite fish. And everyone was welcome to all of everything.
 Even the kids. who stealthily pill fered goodies were urged to pilfer more. And the feast brought joy and good cheer to thousand people who are homeless in strange land. And the spirit of kindliness so permeated 1t all that Mamma Cootschneider, now and then, was compelled to wipe away sympathetic tear. And after 1t was all over, Papa Gootschneider declared that his undying regret would be that he had only one daughter to give q wedding feast for.

Precious Gold,

Since the beginning of the war, the nations of Europe have sent quantities of gold to our shores. So, as far as gold is concerned, we are richer than ever before, comments a financial eX- change. But gold, except that portion of it which is made into gold foil, or used for gliding, or made into jewelry, or otherwise employed in the arts, has no value in itself. Gold, in general. is only a symbol of value, of use for buy ing; and if the goods are not at hand to be bought, the gold is valueless. You cannot eat it, or drink it, you cannot warm yourself with it. AS a financial writer said the other day, If gold were to be discovered in the same quantities in which copper Is found, it would be as beautiful and as useful in the arts and sciences as before, but We should have to stop using it for money. You would need 30 pounds of it to buy pair of shoes, and the price of the shoes would be about S7 ,560."
