Potato Yeast Bread.

Take three cupfuls of hot mashed
potato, firmly packed when measured,
two teaspoonfuls each of salt, fat and
sugar, a half yeast cake dissolved in
q fourth of a cupful of luke-warm wa
ter, and six cupfuls of wheat -four.
Put a third of cupful of hot water
with the salt, fat and sugar in bowl.
add the potato, mix well add the
yeast and one cupful of flour; knead
or stir in the flour at first, adding one
cupful at a time; it will be very stiff
at the last, but with good kneading it
will be smooth. The second kneading,
because of the moisture in the potato,
will be soft; add no more -four.
When it is light, knead into loaves and
when again light, bake in moderate
oven one hour This makes two loaves
of moist palatable bread. And pota-
toes contain about so per cent water,
if no water is used, four cupfuls of
-four will be sufficient, but ii viii take
patience to knead it, but the results
will be good.

Don't Despair!
Every cause has a weak member
Every great faith some irresponsible
doubt
Every strong law some undisciplined
denial.
So the world goes on.
Finding success through failure.
How many times have you failed?
Not all of you. part of you.
Yet you couldn't stop.
Neither can the world at war.
Russia is a reminder.
Where Is our personal organization
weak?
How much does ignorance hold us
back?
Are you surrendering confidence TO
suspicion.
Is selfishness binding US to our
whole human duty?
Are we bedeviled with cold feet"
and a ''hot head?"
We say: poor Russia. or rotten
Russia according to our sympathy or
our pTeJuulCe-
I'VE know how Russia feels, because
we've known discord and disorder In
our own hearts-before the steady
mind took firm control.
Russia is the worlds big example
in unftness.
Don't blame Russia, but avoid Rus
sia's misfortune.
Let's study Russia and stop what
ever in us is Russian disorder
Russia is translating suffering into
strength, ignorance into wisdom, van
ity into sanity.
Probably doing the best she can
blind and broken as she Is.
1t is easy to say Take out car
and put in a man Of the people"
1t is just as easy to say: Take out
a carbuncle of corruption and put in
the contentment of perfect health. "
1t is an instant theory; an endless
and distressing operation.
So the world waits and struggles
cursing or praying over the delay and
the disgrace.
Russia seems to have been inevi'
table-a chapter of experience the al
lied world had to read.

Value of Entertainment
of Se.6ers Proved When
Band Is Sent From u. S.

A letter recently received in this
country from Col. William Hayward,
former New York public service com
missioner, illustrating the value of en-
tertainment for soldiers, describes the
sensation produced in France by a
negro band from the United States,
whose membership also included mu-
sicians from Cuba and Porto Rico. The
cost of organizing the band and send
ing it to France was $4,000, which
was paid by Daniel G. Reid.
When subscriptions were being
raised Mr.. Reid was the first man
asked to contribute. He asked the to-
tai amount required, and when told
$4,000, he is said to have remarked:
I'll pay the whole check"
The band is headed by Lieutenant
Europe, who before the war days con-
Quoted the orchestra of the Forty
fourth street theater roof. Colonel
Hayward in his letter also said:
"A lot of things are no fun, and one
year ago l would have thought them
will be when it is all over! ! shall
not know how to act in polite society
or what to do with the ordinary para
phernalia of civilization, like toilets,
baths, club chairs. Umbrellas are OBJ
solete. Do they still have them any
where? Rain means nothing but a
little bit-nOt much-deeper mud.
Still nobody has any kick to squeal
about, and all hands are so pleased
to think they weren't left at home out
of this beautiful party that optimism
reigns supreme. OF course we know
absolutely nothing about the war or
how it's going except in our own little
neck of the woods, and really don't
care.
"Our band Is the most wonderful
thing over here. | don't believe any
money ever bought as much pleasure
and happiness for human beings as
did Daniel G. Reds in this instance"

WHEN RUSSIA FAILS
By George E. Bowen of the Vigilantes

No use TO cry over Russia's spilled
milk
But very important to prevent sim
liar catastrophe in our own lives.
Russia's deficit changes the world
balance.
What is our shortage?
Russia's wasn't 100 per cent.
She's trying mighty hard to get out
of the $3.50 class.
Realizing the ruinous futility Of
serving a dozen masters, Russia is try
ing to become master of herself.
Can we say as much ?-You and II
What is our little pet personal des-
potism?
Have we cast it out, in the name Of
efficiency and perfect fitness for the
world service calling us?
Russia is the sore toe of the allied
cause.
Makes the whole movement of hu-
mainly stumble.
Has our personal patriotism sore
toe-or a broken arm, or a lost voicef
Is our sympathy bandaged over one
eye?
Is our loyalty punctured?
Is our first duty to humanity vic
tim of prejudice, procrastination or
perversity?
Russia is an awful warningi
The greatest thing in the world to-
day is to be right and ready!
That's the least we owe to the Big
gest Cause.
Be fit to go forward with the true
faith
Every man must see his own heart.
Every man must put his mind in or
der to square with the great fact:
kaiserless world. ..'.'.
Russia has shown us the way, by
falling down in it,
Today is the day our own soul mast
decide
Not half way. Not roundabout. Not
by compromise or contradiction. Not
by secret treaties with our personal
despot. Not by any style OF self
camoufiage.
TOday-We must go the whole way
Give up all to win all
Cali it the Day of Conservation
and remember Russia
