gether, not only because economically
they cannot exist as independent
States, but also because they are cul-
turally united, and the non-Russian
nationalities, in as far as they inhabit
these Provinces, will prefer orienta-
tion towards democratic Russia to
orientation towards Germany, Austria
and Turkey.
Hope for Russia's future is further
more built on the hope for every de-
mocracy. This is a critical moment in
the life of humanity, but at the same
time, what a significant moment!
Young, democratic Russia under the
heels of Prussian Junkerdom-whata a
pitiful pictured But, on the other side,
the Allied Democracies with their iron
armies in defense of the principle of
freedom, with their leader, the leader
of civilization, President Wilson, at
the head! Never in human history
was the brutality, the bestiality of
men better represented than in the
figure of the German kaiser making
his victorious speeches and calling the
old German Gott his faithful ally. And
never, on the other hand, was the great
moral force, the beauty, the over
whelming power of democratic civ
ilization better represented than in the
figure of the glorious President of the
United States, in his speeches and
statements, bringing this conflict to
the heights of a great moral issue,
making this war, on the Allied side,
as he recently said, war of emanci-
patton.
"The Russian situation is critical
but not hopeless, and it is the great
democracy of the United States to
whom we mostly look for brotherly
help at this difficult period in our ma
tional existence. Among the many
friends of the new Russian Democracy,
President Wilson is the greatest AS
long as Russia lives,-we hope that
she will recover and live forever
Russian school children will learn the
story of the great President of this
great country, who in tie most critical
moment in Russia's life came out with
a statement in her defense and de-
clared as one of the war aims OF the
Allies. the evacuation of Russia's ter
ritories by our common enemy, and
the freedom of Russia's political de-
velopment"

PHYSICAL FITNESS

Physical fitness is as necessary to
day as conservation of meat, whea
and sugar.
Men and women who have neglected
to do so should give immediate atten.
ton to their physical well-being. II
the draft calls continue as they have
been coming for the past two months
the physically unfit will have to work
beside those who are physically fit.
Even those who have made their for
tunes and retired may have to come
back"
Look over your accounts. If you
are overdrawn, physically, begin to
square the account Immediately. 1t
is your patriotic duty.

Food Hint for Today
Winter Use of Dried Products.

The reward for past labors and the
pleasure Of working out a process to
the finish comes to the housewife
when she takes her dried products to
prepare for table use in the winter.
Send to the National War Garden
Commission, Washington, for a free
drying manual, which will be sent you
upon request. Enclose 2-cent stamp
to cover postage. 1t should be re-
membered that the amount of water
dried out of vegetables or fruit must
be largely restored before they are
in proper condition for cooking. This
takes time.
AS a general rule, the longer the
time required for drying, the longer
the time necessary to restore the
moisture content. This is done by
soaking in cold water. The soaking
products should be kept in a cool
place. Fruits may be soaked over
night.
Allow three to four times as much

water as dried product and cook in
the same water This water in which
the products have been soaked con-
tains some of the mineral salts or
some of the juices, and is therefore
of value
Avoid over-soaking. Dried, sliced
beets, if soaked too long. lose their
red color and good flavor Soaking
for two hours (twO parts water to
one part beet should be enough.
Corn is another product which should
not be oversoaked. Four hours is
usually enough. 1t is not necessary
to soak until products are fully re-
stored to natural shape; they will alb
sorb moisture while cooking. 1t is
practicable in some instances, espe-
cially when vegetables are finely
shredded, to pour hot water over them
and cook at once.
When cooking dried vegetables or
fruits a better flavor is secured by
cooking in a covered vessel. The cas-
serole is to be especially recommend
ed for fruits. The commission will
be glad to answer any questions

There are still some Americans
who have not conquered the whims Of
