German Officer, Taken in Battle, Aston

Declaration That the Chief Vir-
tue of the World Is Strength

London, July 20 Correspondence OF
the Associated Press Despite their
four years of fighting, some of the Ger
man prisoners of war still are obsessed
by the German idea of conquering the
world. That unadulterated Prussianism
still exists in the German ranks is the
conclusion of one British officer who has
interviewed a number OF the German
prisoners. One of them he describes as
IAN intelligent university man" The
British officer quotes their conversation
as follows:

German, but you English are we'll in

officer.

German. "The Prussian purpose is God

To tempt me from my way.

Paris, July 20.-The Germans have
been forced to bring up 100000 reserves
to the army of the German crown prince
as a result of yesterdays fighting, and
the French and Americans, after iuctua-
tions, have been enabled to strongly
fortify the newly gained positions south
west of Scissors, says Marcel Hutin in
Echo de Paris.
M. Hutin adds that the enemy menace
toward the Paris region has been frus-
trated and that the efforts of the crown
prince against Epernay, Montmirail and
Rheims have gone for nought.

ASKED NOT TO BUY FOOD
Outside of the English Rest Camps Pro-
vided for Americans.

With the American Army in England
July 20.-American officers arriving at
rest camps have been requested by the
officers in command not to purchase
meals or any supplies of food in the
nearby towns. 1t has been explained to
them that a sufficient quantity of food
is at their disposal at camp, and that it
would not be fair to the resident popula-
ion for them to buy food that England is
so earnestly endeavoring to conserve.
The enlisted men who arrive at the
rest camps are subjected to no such
temptation because on their brief stay
at the camps they are not granted any
leave of absence.

A GERMAN SwINDLE.
Three Unauthorized Persons Wearing Uni
forms Stole Children's Satchels,

Amsterdam, July 20. - An extraordi-
nary instance of Teutonic servility
where uniforms are concerned has oc-
CURED at Essen. A party of three armed
individuals, two in soldiers and one in
policeman's uniform, made round of
all the schools of the town, representing
themselves to be authorized to collect
the children's satchels. They paid tri-
fe in each case for the leather straps
attached to them, and carried away their
booty After few days, the whole af-
fair was discovered to be swindle.
How it is possible that this could
have been carried on for days without
anyone having the courage to challenge
their authority remains one of the mys-
teries of this war;" says the Rhenish
Westphalian Gazette.

How the Church Supper Can Help Food
Conservation.

The church supper can help food con-
servation. II can supply meal to 100,
200 or more persons which will substi-
tute the foods which are plenty for the
foods that are needed abroad. And that
in itself is quite an item.
But that is not all the church supper
can do 1t can unobtrusively act as a
demonstration center for the food adj
ministration. 1t can boost potatoes and
other local vegetables, play up pinto
beans, show the pepole how good corn
meal, oat meal and barley really are.
The church supper, like the college boy,
has possibilities.
For example there is the hone. grown
supper That depends on your commu-
nifty, Of course DO you have maple
treesl Do the farmers grow corn which
is milled near by? Then your problem
is settled excepting for the crowds which
will flock to be fed on hot corn cakes
and maple syrup.
A church supper without any bread
would be distinct novelty. And it can
well be done by using hominy or rice
The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1918-07-20

use the other sweets, such as molssses,
honey, corn syrup, maple sugar and ma
pie syrup in cakes and desserts. 1t can
set the example of eliminating foods
fried in deep fat, of serving butter in
smaller quantities and seeing that there
is no waste.
The church supper might even teach
some food lessons by serving dishes with
little tags showing the number of calor-
les furnished by each serving and the
classification according to the five food
groups" Dorothy Dexter.

The Wood Fire.

If one is accustomed to burning coal
and then has to depend entirely upon
wood, she is likely to be very much dis
gusted, for time at least. But if one
knows how, and has the right kind of
stove and dry, hard wood, fire can be
kept with but little more work than with
coal. If one keeps the draughts open
wide there will be a raging fire for a
time, but most of the heat will 90 up
the chimney, and then if neglected the
fire will fall through into the ash pan,
leaving an empty CRATE. The better way
is to fill the stove with wood, after the
fire gets to burning briskly, then shut
the oven damper tightly, and the damp
er leading into the stovepipe az tightly
as it can be without making the stove
smoke. The front draught should be
wholly or partly closed, according to the
heat required. If more wood is added
while there is still good bed Of eoals,
filling the stove full each time, The fire
viii burn slowly and steadily, and with
the least possible waste. Green wood
cannot be burned as economically as dry,
considerable heat being needed to dry
out the moisture. A wood fire can be
kept over night very easily. Have a
good bed of Goals; put in several large
sticks of hard wood, preferably knotty
ones, packing closely, then, before they
have time to blaze up, cover quickly
with ashes and shut everything tightly,
If this is done, say at o'clock, and one
gets up by 8, the stove will be warm. On
raking out the ashes one win find enough
live Goals to start the wood without
bothering with kindlings, and the fire
will start up at once.

DUTCH SHIPS ARE
 HELD IN AMERICA
(New York Tribune)

Even phlegmatic Dutch seamen on the idle lowland fleet that has swung with the tide for months in the Wa ters the Half Moon sailed in are chaf- ing at their plight and eagerly look for ward to the day when their ships shall enter the United States service. But the anxiety with which their shippers await the transfer of their vessels is intense
 The big Dutch fleet stretches out along the Hudson for t-n miles the northern boundary Of 'ts anchorage be- ing off the city pier at Workers.
 With the worlds tonnage at low cbb and the vital need of bottoms for the maintenance of the allies fleet against Germany, the fleet as it lies today, in this harbor is worth at least III million dollars. Every ship at anchor is in splendid condition, many of them having come from the yards of their builders within two or three years, and although freightors they are kept i'm maculate.
 For the last few months local agents for the various Dutch lines operating the visiting vessels have shrugged their shoulders and eXcla imed "The Lord only knows!" whenever they were asked the reason for the holdup of the fleet.
 The question as to the disposition of the fleet, however. has been put square ly up to President Wilson. and an ah- swer from him is expected soon. The army and navy departments and the shipping board have strongly urged that no time be wasted in commandeer- ing the entire fleet of eightyfour yes sels that are now in various ports of the United States.
 German pressure on Holland is still strong, and if the United States would commander the vessels such pro- cedure would be acceptable to the ship owners, as the Netherlands gov ernment could then inform her Teu- tonic neighbor that she was in no way a party to the force eXerted by the United States Holland is extremely anxious to avoid a reputation of having aided American plans.
 If the United States commanders these ships tomorrow said the com manding officer of one Dutch ship, 'she can count on me to work for her. l But before I put my foot on deck 1 shall demand American citizenship and all the great protection that goes with it. I think there are plenty of my coun- trymen who feel that way. Personally I will sail on any ship of the Entente | that goes to England. My family is 1 there. England has been good to them and to me, and I'm ready any time to do a good turn for England
 How do the Dutch sailormen feel | generally, toward the Entente?'' he was asked.

CASH|ON MAN |S

Jeremiah Michael Sullivan of Cash ion who, on account of his age, was unable to enlist in the United States army, has at last realized the desire of his life, and is now a member of a Canadian contingent of fighters. Sul- livan, according to a letter received by the daughter of County Treasurer Sam F. Webb, apparently thought he was getting touch of modern war fare virtually before he got started on his voyage to England, where he now awaits orders, when scarcely 20 miles out of Halifax, a reverberating intonation was carried across the waves, shaking the vessel on which he was making the trip, until all on board thought all the submarines in the world must have cut loose Later information disclosed the fact that it was the Halifax explosion and dis aster.
 Sullivan was identified in Glendale politics during the gupernatorial con- | test, and was well known throughout i this part of Arizona. When he could not get into the army in this coun- try, his patriotism urged him to seek other channels, and he accordingly went to Canada where he was ac- cepted. The letter received by MT.

The mystery regarding the going out of the lights in small part of the business section Friday night was ex- plained yesterday when it was found that the lighting system had been dis abled by bundle of baling wire mad vertently thrown over the line, which placed a short circuit of the system and rendered section of the town light less" Although a large force of the Pacific Gas and Electric company's men patroled the lines with search lights, it was not until daylight that the cause of the trouble was discov- cred.
 In this country where there is so lit tie rain and at such infrequent inter- vals, such conditions as the above may exist for a considerable time without disturbing the lights. A good soaking rain, however, makes it possible for these causes to appear, making a large amount of trouble all at once instead of being scattered at frequent intervals as is the case in eastern and northern countries.
