Dear Miss Whitney:-During the
past three months the rate of pro-
ductiOn of the chapters of the Surg
ical Dressings Department has been
80 rapid that we are having great diff
ficulty in securing sufficient guam
titles OF gauze.
The result Of all this enthusiastic
work is that we have finally reached
a point where, for the time being,
the rate Of production is out-strip-
ping our ability to obtain needed
materials. The factories which are
to make the gauze are having diff
Guilty in securing from the mills
needed grey goods. that is, the cot
ton cloths from which gauze is made.
In the meantime, the chapters are
rapidly using up the gauze which
they have on hand, and have already
exhausted the supply in division
warehouse. Chapters are especially
requested not to purchase gauze in
the open market, although some still
may be obtained locally, but usually
at exorbitant prices. As such pur-
chases only prolong the difficulty of
establishing regular supply
throughout the country. this re-
quest has been made to us by Ma
tional Headquarters, and l sincere
ly hope chapters will cooperate by
complying.
After taking the above into con-
sideration. / am closing the Teach
ing Centers throughout the Gulf
Division. 80 l will ask you to please
discontinue having classes in your
teaching center. The head instructor
is to still remain head instructor for
your chapter. but not hold any
more classes. When your chapter
receives a special call for any one
type of dressing, l will at once send
instruction to you, to be given to
the head instructor, and she will |
call the captains of surgical dressings
in the work-room together. and
give the needed instruction out, as |
the head instructor is the only one
who has authority to instruct.
In further connection with the
closing of the teaching centers, on
account Of the shortage of gauze all |
over the country, l do not think it |
advisable to continue giving instruc-
ton out in the making of thirty
different types of dressings, when |
after July LIST, each chapter is going |
to be a surgical dressing factory, |
and produce just one type of DRESS
ing. As long as Washington is ask
ing US for only certain types of
dressings, there is no need of giving
out instruction in all dressings, be-
sides, we are using up gauze in the
teaching center for dressings that
National Headquarters at present is
not asking for, and taking women
away from the work-rooms where
from now on they will have to be to
get out these allotments for their
chapter. We will need all the work
ers we can get.
Please give this necessary public
ity. and notify your head instructor
at once of the decision reached by me.

VALUABLE ARTICLE OF FOOD
Banana Really Is Not Appreciated
Anything Like as Much as 1t
Ought to Be.

The banana is one of the most use
full of all foods. When the population
of the earth becomes o~vercrowded, we
shall have to eat more bananas and
less bread. An acre in wheat will
yield 900 pounds of food. An acre In
bananas will yield 10000 pounds.
The banana resembles in compost
ton the sweet potato. Both contain
~ per rent of protein and 20 per
cent carbohydrates. The banana con-
tains more starch than fruits Of the
temperate cline. AS 1t ripens, the
starch gradually turns TO sugar.
The late Edgar Wallace Conable
said that the banana Is the only food
which may safely be eaten when til
has been picked green. This, he ex-
planned, Is because the green bananas
draw nourishment out of the great cen
trail stem, which gradually shrinks and
withers. A banana should never be-
eaten until the skin Is beginning to
turn black. Some claim that they
should be entirely black. However, 1t
is not necessary to go SC far rs that.
AS they turn black the starch turns to
sugar. Serape the white material from
beneath the skin before you eat the
fruit,

MEN WITH NERVES OF IRON
Remarkable Feats That Are Said to
Have Been Performed by Eng
lish Steeplejacks.

The business of being a steeplejack
has very strangely run through" set-
eral families of England. At Noting
ham there vas Il family named Woot-
ton, members of which had for centu-
ries the reputation of being daring
steeple climbers, not for adventure but
in the way of business.
One of these Woottons, in the time
of George III, was famous for repair
ing steeples and spires without using
scaffolding; he did his work by the
help of ladders, hooks and ropes. When
he repaired st. Peters spire, Noting
ham, in 1889, having finished his work,
he beat a drum at its top, thousands
of people looking on.
Another of the Woottons undertook
the perilous task of ascending the spire
of st. Mary's, Manchester, which was
very lofty. By a tremendous wind the
ball and cross had been bent down, and
looked dangerous. This steeple climb
err raised ladders one after the other,
assisted by blocks and ropes, and
secured each in succession to the stone
work with clamps. When he got near
the top of the spire the work became
more difficult, and the spectators anx-
iously watched him as he fixed the last
ladder. Having accomplished this feat,
Wootton stepped~from the ladder on to
the crown or pinnacle of the steeple,
and stood quite upright, with his hands
free. Then he raised q cheer, which
was responded to by the crowds below.
More extraordinary still, n of these
steeple-climbers is said to have per-
formed the feat of standing upon his
head on a steeple top.

"FIyinq Fish" Torpedo.


Aerial torpedoes-the bane of Ger

trenches-have been called flying

cal bodies and huge air-ins suggest
the tropic sea creatures. The torpe-
does are held upright in the air and
given a diving velocity by the air re-
sistance which strikes the fins. spin,-

Nuts and Digestion.

The reason nuts are thought indiges-
tible by some is because of the thin
skin surrounding each kernel, notes q
medical authority. This can easily be
blanched off by pouring boiling water
on the nut, and allowing it to stand
for a few moments. Almonds should
never be eaten with the red, tough
skin on the nut meat. When boiling
water is poured on the almond, this
skin becomes as tough as leather. The
best way to use nuts for children Is to
grind the nut meats or pound them,
for which purpose the nut-butter knife
in the meat grinder will be found the
right tool. A good nut cracker with
strong spring makes nut-cracking
easy, and is preferable to buying the
ready-picked meats on the market.

Folly of RldicuIe.

A moment of indulgence in ridicule
may create lifelong resentment, notes
a student.
The late Richard Mansfield is said
to have nursed a grievance against
Henry Irving for years.. The reason
was that Irving had momentarily in
dulged a little weakness he had for
making sardonic remarks.
Ridicule of persons strikes at per-
soIal vanity. And vanity is a very
common weakness. Few escape it al
together.
And this kind Of ridicule, In fact all
kinds, on examination, will be found
to be associated with vanity. In ridi-
cullng there-is Invariably the desire to
show how clever one is oneself.
