Felix Grove worked Id the office Of

only girl in the district that he really

Nellis Hayes rightly construed her

to be the life of the group.

said consolingly. He even asked poor

This is the week set aside for the
United War Work campaign. Prov
ers county's quota is something over
seventeen thousand dollars, and the
fact that peace has been declared
should make this sum all the easier
to raise Our boys will still be over
seas many months and will be in even
greater need ef the cheer and COM
fort provided by these organizations.
The field army of these seven great
agencies comprises more than fifteen
thousand uniformed workers on both
sides of the water. They represent
every type of activity-secretaries
athletic directors. librarians, preachers,
lecturers, entertainers, motion picture
operators, truck drivers, hotel and
restaurant workers, etc. Many are
bearing their own expenses; those who
cannot are paid their actual living ex-
penses, If single, and are given an
allowance approximately equal to the
pay of a second lieutenant to cover
their own and their families expenses,
if they have families.

With the signing of the Armistice
hostilities ceased, but not the activities
of the Food Administration.
No abandonment of the general re-
quest for food saving is contemplated.
In fact, the necessity for increased
saving will be stiffened to meet the
greater demands from the entire
world. There may be changes in the
character of conservation correspond
ing to the new situation in the worlds
supplies and demands, but no relaxa-
ton in the general conservation effort.
AMERICA must now be ready to rush
supplies for 10000, 900 people, victims
of Germany and the war, who are fac
ing starvation unless help comes quick
ly.
The campaign for neraly 100000
tons Of food goes into effect at once.
We must pursue it with the same vIgor
that we used in our drive for the six
billion dollar Liberty Loan. The or
ganization for this stupendous task
must be carried through the state TO
the county, to the community, to the
individual home. The new Home Card,
which will be distributed the first week
in December, will contain no regula-
tions regarding either "meatless" or
"wheatless days, but will urge as a
whole the most careful saving in all
edibles, particularly wheat, meat, fats
and sugar.
Every table has absent guests. Every
American at his meals entertains an
Englishman, a Frenehman, an Italian
or Belgian as surely as though he
could pass him bread across his own
table instead Of across the seas. Ameri- |
cans admit these foreigners as new
members to the family circle when
they observe their honor rations and
waste nothing. As loyal individuals
they pass ON what best can stand the
journey overseas.
II can be taken for granted, also.
that the American visitor from next
door, the next town. or the next state
would wish to join in the hospitality
extended to the absent guest overseas. |
Therefore. do not tempt your guest to
break conservation regulations. Poo
Pile should not dook upon their guests
as afTording special dispensations from
the government to disregard their own
consciences and the requests of the
food administration. 1t is improper
and unpatriotic to offer visitors liberal
amounts Of sugar. wheat breads and
all kinds of food Injuries. In so doing
the host has forgotten his most honor
ed guests. those who are suffering
abroad.

COTTAGE CHEESE.

The best method for making cottage cheese is as follows:
 Take one gallon of skinned milk and heat it seventy degrees. which is only slightly above room temperature, add 1-8 of a tablet of Junket dissoIv- ed in two tablespoons of cold water. Add one cup of good sour milk or buttermilk. Leave standing twelve or fifteen hours in a warm room, at the end of which time curd will have formed and the entire contents of the container may be poured on 10th, stretched over the top of a pan or pail (cotton sheeting will do nicely) the curd should not be broken any more than is necessary. The free whey will drain off in twenty minutes or half an hour and the cloth should then be folded over the curd and the entire mass placed on a board with a pail of water or other weight placed upon it in order to press out the whey. In half an hour the cheese should be ready for use.
 An important point is to keep the milk at proper temperature {treat as YOU would bread). A fireless cook CT is very satisfactory, especially dur ing cold weather.

CHANGE IN NBCKLINE.

There are four things in fashion that are often discussed today. The severe uncollared neck-line, the short sleeve. the cape back and the lack of chiffon blouses.
 A dressmaker drew a patrons at tention to the absence of the latter garment because of the prevalence of one-piece frocks, and told how the shirtwaist people were depending up- on wash blouses to continue their business.
 Every woman can see for herself the startling change in the neck-line. It is no longer considered correct to pull the collar of blouse over the coat revers. If a separate blouse is worn, it has a round Italian neck, which shows between the opening of the coat fronts. If the worsted ma terial of the cloth of the coat is un- gainly against the flesh, then the coat must have some cleverly devised white collar of it's own.
 Sailor collars are not smart. High collars that roll upward at the back and down in the front are not attach ed to coats. The collars that go on bodices of one-piece frocks and be- fore they reach the collar bone, and the rest of the decolletage is un- touched by any line of white.

Pretty Ellen Grayson came to the studio yesterday to sell tickets for a military entertainment When the last ticket had found a purchaser she said to Madame:
 Now that I've done this bit of my bit l can talk about clothes. I need an entire new outfit, but my wartime allowance will permit me to buy only a couple of frocks and a wrap. What would you suggest in the way of a practical wrap, something simple enough to wear on the street and yet wouldn't look out of place if worn in the evening over dance frocks?''
 "A cape of some lightweight worsted material is exactly what you want-say a fine quality of serge or gabardine," Madame said then turn ing to me:
 "Claire, please show Miss Grayson the portfolio stitches; there are sev- eral smart capes in it that may ap- stairs for samples of silks in bright colors-this wrap must have gay lining"
 Miss Grayson was enthusiastic about cape of dark blue serge with a waistcoat until she saw the draped model which Mime. Frances considers the smartest cape wrap she's design ed this season.
 At this moment Madame rejoined us, asking:
 Well, what about the draped cape?"
 Why, that's exactly the sort oi wrap I wantr' Miss .Grayson exclaim- ed. Its simple yet dressy enough to look smart in the evening. How soon will you let me have it?"
 Next week if you will stay here now long enough for Miss Westley to drape the material on you."
 Miss Grayson gladly agreed to stay the rest of the afternoon if necessary
 Madame decided that marine blue gabardine lined with Oriental red pussy-wilIow taffeta would be a smar. combination.
 The gabardine was extremely wide permitting the cape to be made with out seams.
 Miss Wesley arranged the mater ial over Miss Grayson's shoulders then proceeded to drape it according to Madame's directions.
 An end was allowed to hang free at one side of the front in deep folds The other, which was much the long CT of the two, was gracefully draped over the opposite shoulder and arm forming a wide sleeve. It was then brought up in a. diagonal line across

TO MAKE TOILET SOAP.

Stir one can potash into one quart of cold water and let cool. Use earth enware or agate pitcher in which to dissolve the potash and a wooden stick for stirring. Pour it into the water slowly and carefully.
 Always wear a pair of gloves as they save your hands from any pot ash spilling on them.
 Melt six pounds of grease and heat it until lukewarm. Add to the potash and water one-half cupful of glycerine or olive oil, three tablespoons borax, one cupful almond meal, ten or fif- teen cents worth of violet or any odor preferred sachet powder. Pour the potash into the melted grease, stir un- til thick.
 Have pan ready lined with a white cloth and let cloth hang over the edges of the pan, then your soap in and be sure to cut it before 1t Is thoroughly hard.

DON'T FEAR TO EAT.

If you are doing your bit and eat ing potatoes instead of wheat, don't fear for your figure. The office of Information of the United States Departmen of Agriculeture sends out the comforting assurance that they will not make you fat. Eat well and look we'll" they say. Potatoes supply energy for your war work. Use up that energy as fast as you can and do not worry.
 Body fat is stored up energy. If you keep your energy in circulation, not in storage, you will stay slender. Use potatoes to give you the energy and then use up the energy in war work.
 Everybody needs full steam ahead. Fire up your body engine with pota- toes. They supply the fuel for hard work. A six-ounce potato provides as much, fuel as a great big slice of fashioned homemade bread.
 "Plenty of potatoes and hard work keep you fit. Eat potatoes and be ready for anything!"
