Cooks in the Army Learn
How to Economic on Food

Opportunities for the home eco
Monies demonstration workers of the
United States department of agricul-
ture are not limited to farm and town
homes. Cooks in American army
camps also have had an opportunity to
hear about conservation methods from
the department specialists. At one of
the army schools for bakers and cooks
in Mississippi demonstrations in food
savings were much appreciated by the
cooks in training. according to a re-
port of the officer in charge, who de-
scribed the demonstrations as a "won-
derful success" The cooks are being
taught ways to utilize the leftover
food, the use of flour substitutes, and,
particularly. new and attractive ways
of serving cOrnmeal dishes. Demon
strations in the making and use of fire.
less cookers also have been conduct
ed in the field ambulance hospital di-
vision.

i. s. Insurance
Tremendou. Business Conducted
by the Government

AS an insurance company the United
States makes all other concerns in
the business seem puny.
On April 6 the total amount of IN
surance Uncle Sam had written was
over $14,0Oo,000, 900. That sum had
been put on the books in six months.
In the whole year of 1917 all other
concerns in the United States, includ-
ing fraternal organizations, mutual
companies and the like, wrote approx
imately $4,000, 1000 worth of insur-
ance.
Some difference.
And Uncle Sam was still on the job.
The third week of April alone $780,
100000 worth of insurance was writ
ten.
Uncle Sans customers are soldiers
and sailors. They number about $780,
900. The average policy runs close to
$500. The minimum is $1,000 and
the maximum is $4,000.
April u was the last day on which
men who joined the government mill
tary or naval forces before December
4, 1917, could secure government in
surance, but all new men joining either
army or navy can be insured and the
government urges them strongly to
take the maximum sum.
In the meantime Uncle Sam has been
paying out a great deal of money on
salary allotments and for death and
disability compensation. Up to April
6 1.706,330 separate checks had been
made out for such payments for sums
as follows: Salary allowances, $780,
400, 1852; death and disability compen-
sation, S6o,95S; government insurance
payments, S177,51S.

WHEN LITTLE ONE SINGS


When evening comes over the gray shad-
ows fall,
Softly my Little One sings;
Cuddles and COOS to a little rag doll,
And babbles of wonderful things.
Voice like a innet, and eyes like a dove,
Little One rocks in her chair,
And t~enderly sings, while her mothoriy
love
Warns to her little one there.
L van to get dowr by the side of ter,
too,
And rock-a-by back through the years,
Voyaging the Sunderland River of blue,
Untroubled by douotings or fears.
To drift to a nest in the crook of an arm,
And lie in a cuddle of dreams;
All, Little One, sing me the wonderful
charms
Up, up from the Lullaby streams.
And sing while the heart of you bursts
in a song.
Cuddle your little one so,
For yours is a fleeing time, age is SO
long.
And you, little singer, will grow.
Age will lay hand an your curly, brown
hair,
Make you a grow up too soon;
Hustle you out of ysur little red chair
Sing, sing, while your heart is in tune!
Softly gray shadows come deeping down,
Little One journey away
Mother and Dolly to Sunderland Town.
Drowsy-eyed drear-lers astray,
Leaving me here where a mist of her
song
Falls on my heart like a dew,
And heaven. I thanh you, through age is
so long,
Many the dreams That come true.

The shops and stores are now full
of fabric hats for the d~emi-season, be-
tween summer and early winter, and
include many hats for fall that will
outlast that season and do service in
the winter as well. There has been a
growing appreciation of beautiful
lines that has resulted in the most
becoming shapes we have ever had.
Crowns are usually soft and often
draped. These models passed the old

1t is something OF u snoeG TO realize
that it is already time to look about
and choose a heavy coat as'part of
the college girls school outfit. But
manufacturers have seen to it that the

view of the scarcity of wool materials

new coats are not radically different

The outstanding characteristics of
the new coats are sturdiness and good
style. The materials are in heavy wool
