With Prosecution of War
Industrial Workers of the World
on the Pacific coast have planned
wholesale destruction of industries
and shipping and other interference
with prosecution of the war, it is
said at the department of justice.
The Indictment of IS at Sacramento
by federal grand jury is the result
of recent Investigations by govern
ment agents who discovered that
leaders were plotting systematic sa-
botage.
The investigation was direct re-
suit of the recent attempt to blow up
the governors residence at Sacra-
mento. Agents discovered a group
of plotters whose activities extended
throughout the Pacific coast terri
tory.
In addition to blowing up facto-
ries, plotters in that section of the
country had planned to foment
strikes among workmen engaged in
war industries, destruction of fruit
trees and crops.

The Potato in the Revolutionary War

During the Revolutionary war. General
Francis Marion was one of the braYest
fighters on the American side. He and
his soldiers lived in the thick forest of
South Carolina.
The story is told that one day an
English general sent young soldier out
to find General Marion and deliver to
him a message. The messenger found
the general and his men about to eat
their supper and be was asked to join
them
When the plates were passed, they
proved TO be huge chips cut from a
large tree near the campfire. The Eng
lish soldier looked at these strange plates
and began to wonder what the food
would be-
Soon a soldier appeared with some
smoking hot potatoes taken from the
ashes of the campfire. The English sol
der thought he had never eaten any
thing more delicious than those baked
potatoes and little later as they all
sat around watching the plates burn in
the glowing fire, General Marion said to
the Englishman: You now see what
we Americans have to eat here in the

American soldiers are now fighting by
the side OF the English soldier. In mod
ern warfare, there is no need to eat from
wooden chips. But there is need for
plenty of nourishing food for the SOL

diminished and it is not practicable 10

from America.
The answer to this is that America
must ca more potatoes and send that

equal in nourishment a slice and three

American will hesitate to put into CON
slant practice this little service for his

BOIL WATER RIGHT-HELP WIN
THE WAR
How do you boil water?
Just watch yourself or your maid
and see if you do not do it this way:
You turn on your gas, then strike
your match, result gas lighted.
Next you go and get your dish, take
it to the faucet and fill it, then put 1t
on the stove. If it is the teakettle,
you put the cover on. If it is an open
dish you do not bother with a cover.
Then you put in whatever is to be
cooked and the chances are that you
let it boil without covering.
Now you have wasted several feet
Of gas that you get no good from.
And in this time of war necessities,
the fact that you pay for the gas does
not help the coal famine. You burn
just so much more coal that should
be put into the bunkers of some ship

- 70 helm feed our soldiers who are
making the world safe for women anu
children.
What kind Of dish do you use
when boiling things on the stove?
Do you use a dish small at the
bottom and fiaring at the top! II
so you lose a considerable amount OF
gas, as well as burning out the DISH
Eow to cut your gas bill and save
fuel to Help Win the War.
Use dish with bottom large
enough to project over the blaze.
Cover dish tightly.
Bring to a boil, then turn gas

FLOOD STAGE
In Ohio River VIII Probably BE Here
Today-WharfbOat Almost COM
pletely Submerged.

AS a result of the rains in the upper
Ohio river district the river is expect
ed to pass the flood stage here some
time today. At o'clock this morning
the gauge at the foot of Market street
registered 46 feet and still rising rap
idly. The danger line is so feet.
Warning has been sent out to all those
living in the lowlands to move i'm
mediately as present indications are
that the crest of the rise will be about
54 feet. Although there is no danger
of big flood, there will be some
little discomfort and inconvenience
to those in the immediate vicinity of
the water and within the danger line.
The wharfboat, which was partly
sunk about two weeks ago, is now
almost completely submerged and it
is feared by Captain Phister, the own
er, that the boat may 60 to pieces. 1t
has a concrete bottom, and as It is
rather old and with hole in one side,
will probably never be salvaged
