Miss Anna Jensen. nutrition spc.
cialist, was In Holt County, December
1913, giving talks on child feeding
and nutrition. Due to influenza and
bad weather only two meetings were
held; one at Bigclow and one at Corn
ing.
Miss Jensen stressed the necessity
for milk, fruits, and vegetables In th"
dict. Meat should he eaten only once
daily. The adult can eat foods suit
able for the child, but the child cam i
keen well on all those eaten by the
adult. Unfortunately, too often, the
child has to eat foods which the
grown person has learned 10 like.
For many years much time ard
money have been spent learning how
to feed live stock properly. They are
weighed and measured, rs are alSI,

the fations are right for growth and

TREND IN NEW RUSSIA

'Scoffers will mention the bitter strife that is at this moment making these brothers butcher each other in the street, he continues. That is only part of the passion. The same thing in their. makeup that gives their democracy tho peculiar human quality makes them all the more unbridled when their anger does get on fire. Through all this tur- moil I cannot lose faith in what the fu- ture will bring out of this tremendous human adventure on which Russia has embarked. The only thing feel real and hopeless despair about is my-own lack of capacity to understand it all and to interpet it.'
 The foregoing might bercharacterized as an attempt to express the~Spiritua1 corollary of the military and political facts reported by cable in detail last month by Louis Edgar Browne, staff cor respondent of the Daily News in Rus sia. Edward Price Bell, from his van tage point in London, now cables that British capital confirm the views of MI. Browne His dispatches and the articfS in the Survey are important contribu- tions to the discussion as whether the Russians as a people can be isolated even temporarily from a struggle in whicE nearly all the other democracies of the world are actively enlisted against the forces of oppression.

AN EASY TRICK FOR WOMEN

clusion their capacity to adapt them selves to any emergency. Who is not familiar with the circumstance that a woman can look precisely as old or as young as she wishes to look? The fuga- cious years lay heavy mark on man. The physical changes are there for all to see. But women is stout or thin, tall or short, as fashion dictates. Now the brunette is in style. now the blonde; in either case the supply is adequate. There are those who object to the juvenile dressing now in vogue, Why should they? Let our mothers and grandmoth- CTS be as flappers if they will; like Phyl- lis in the song, they are our only joy and they never fail to please.
 The most successful piece of male cam oflaging was long ago narrated by Ed ward Lear:
 There was an old man with a beard, Who said, Tt is just as 1 feared:
 Three larks and a wren.
 Four owls and a hen,
 Have all built their nests in my beard

From the Philadelphia Public Ledger.
 1A h7EN may be deceiyers ever, but can il\Wll they boast of superiority to won- 6u9 en in deceit as a fine art? Are they not \often too clumsy for complete success? That justified form of deceit known as camouflage has been practiced by men behind the lines with no small degree of skill. Curiously painted guns and roofs, screens of foliage, strips oI canvas-these have been of great service in misleading the enemy. Now the call has come for women to help in the work. There is to be a meeting at the School of Industrial art today to obtain recruits. Who can doubt that the response will be eager and ardent? Camouflage is as natural to a woman as breathing. It is the protective coloring which nature sup plies If it were possible to understand women perfectly, if they had no ois- guises to maintain the mystery of sex. it would be an impossible world. The basis of our philosophy, our poetry, our very scheme of life, would be gone.
 If women can make themselves look likes trees or logs in order to save them- selves from the attentions which the Germans like to visit upon Red Cross nurses and other noncombatants, they will be simply carrying 10 a logical con

As nearly as I can express st, American democracy is thing of intel lectuai belief, of accepted principle. of moral sense of equality before the law, of political equality in principle. of fu- ture equality of economic principle.

Will Be a Great
 University in Time

7HHE removal of the Southern J university from Greensboro to Birmingham, to be merged with Bir- mingham college, will not only be signal event in Alabama Methodism but an epochal turn in this city's as- piration to become a great educational center.
 It takes time to build up real uni versity. But when the Greensboro institution comes with it's excellent equipment and we'll established fol- lowing and unites with the popular institution on Owenton hill, fine start toward full-fledged university will have been made.
 The consolidated institution, besides strengthening the academic depart ment, will develop large and modern school of technology. It is understood
 
 that technical training will be well to the front when the fall term begins, and as soon as the necessary buildings can be erected and the faculty in- creased Birmingham will have a sstech" unsurpassed by any similar school in the south.
 No college in this country has a more commanding site than Birming- ham college. It overlooks the city and the greater part of Jones valley. The campus embraces nearly seventy acres and the grounds are susceptible of the finest landscape treatment. The college is already one of the show places of Birmingham and in the course of a year or two will be a marvel of beauty.
 The canvassing committees that have just completed the work of se- curing the funds upon which the coli lege consolidation was conditioned are to be congratulated by this entire community.

Fast Riveting Gangs
 Battle for Democracy

EvERY rivet driven into the side l1 of ship means another blow struck at the Kaiser. Therefore it is fitting that we do honor to that highly efficient and indispensable ad- junct of shipbuilding, the riveting gang.
 Recently a new record was estab- lshed at the Harlan & Hollingsworth plant of the Bethlehem Shipbuilding corporation at Wilmington, Del, when | crew drove S0S5 rivets in a work ing day of nine hours, an average of slightly more than five rivets min ute. The crew's personnel is inter esting. Jack Conly, for 43 years a shipbuilder at the plant, was the lead CT of the gang. The record was made by William Koyloski, riveter; Andrew Kopenski, holder-on; William Ashton, reamer; Clarence Donovan, heater boy, and Ralph Berry, passer boy.
 Other records established recently were, 272O rivets driven in nine hours at \ Baltimore yard; 2So5' rivets driven in the same number of hours xt the Fore River plant, Quincy, Mass, and 2914 rivets driven in eight hours at the Federal Shipbuilding eompany's yard on the Hackensack rivsr.
