MILLION U.S.. SOLDIERS NEED
1OO,OOO,OOO POUNDS GOODS
They Must Have That Many Pounds
Freight Every Day-That's
Why We Must Speed Up
Ship Building.

A Chicago dispatch states that to
maintain the American army in
France 100 pounds of gross tonnage
day must be landed at French
ports for each man, according to
Captain Earl j. Zimmerman, execu-
tive officer in the depot quarter
masters department here.
"The American people have no
conception of the quantity of sup
plies needed for the men "over
there" said Captain Zimmerman,
"nor of the difficulty in getting it
to them. For example, it takes 49,
100000 pounds of frozen beef each
month to feed 100000 soldiers"
In explaining the food supply of
the American soldiers abroad and
the manner in which it must be
sent, Captain Zimmerman gave a
general picture of the difficulties of
the quartermaster's corps in con-
stantly maintaining sufficient
quantity of food.
According to his statement, the
men in France are on a garrison
ration"-the same as soldiers at
environments in this country. This
ration is five pounds a man, each
day. This weight, however, includes
eating untensils and container. For
100000 men 15O,000,000 pounds of
rations month are required,
amounting to 1000 carloads.
A list of the food required Off
100000 men for 30 days would in
clude the following:
100000 pounds of frozen beef.
37,500,000 pounds of flour.
100000 pounds of bacon.
100000 cans of beef.
100000 cans corn beef.
100000 cans corned beef hash.
3,000,0000 pounds of sugar.
2,4000,000 pounds of coffee.
$4,000 pounds of butter.
At all times Captain Zimmerman
said, a 30-day supply is maintained
in France.

Miss Meier in German class;
"Lonnie, can you name cape in
Alaskan"
"No'm," said Lonnie.
"That's right. Cape Nome. Good
for you"
Miss Cole: "What is a frog?"
Bright freshman: "a frog is a
bug with four legs. 1t stands up
in front and sits down behind"
Mis- Cole in French class: Bruce,
please give me the characteristics
of the French people"
"They all have very small feet"
said Bruce with intuition.
Then suddenly Howard Roach,
who sat in the back of the room
and had thus far been unusually
thoughtful and quiet, said slowly,
looking at his feet, "Golly, Miss
Cole, Pm afraid they would never
let me go to France. l never could
get in"

Gilbert: "Did you hear of the
bad accident that occurred in the
domestic science kitchen this morn
ing?"
Miss Taber: "What was it?"
Gilbert: Lowell picked up bun
and the currant ran up her arm"
Mrs. Carter eats all the fat,
And Prof. Osborn all the lean,
For Mr.. Hoover's ordered them
To lick the platter clean.
Will some one please contribute
suggestions by which the second
year German class can be made
more poetic?
Breathes there man
With soul so dead
Who to our allies
Has not said
81 share with you my daily bread"
To answer thus, we only say,
We Hooverize three times a day.

Twas solid, full of yarn;
And everywhere Miss Taber went
That bag went on her arm.
What is war? War is a great

Miss Cole, who has taken charge
of the library, has now completed a
thorough classification of the books.
An up-to-date catalog system has
been used and by this method the
desired reference book is very east
ly found. The juniors and seniors
were appointed assistant librarians
and each reference book in use is
checked up by them. The library,
which has recently been removed
to the assembly room, now presents
a fine showing which adds to the
general appearance of the study
hall.
Reserve the date, Friday, March
10, for the Philomathian literary

there were number of outside at
fractions this week the program
has been postponed until the above
date. A fine program has been

The 10th, 18th and 18th grade

much work for the Red Cross as is

honest toll and much limping upon
tired feet after the work was ac-
complished. We extend to them our
deepest sympathy.
Another phase of the work has
been touched upon this week. The
girls have undertaken the making
of war cook books, which sell for
rs cents each. The book contains 60
tested and approved war and Hoov-
err recipes. If you have not placed
your order for one of these useful
books do so at once as the number
is limited. The profit goes to the

portion of their appreciation to give
dancing party in his honor. Mr..
and Mrs. McNett, Mrs. Richie and
all the members of the faculty were
present in addition to many friends,
in all about so guests. Cliff Hagler,
the "ragtime kid" furnished the
music by which dancing was ire
sistible. Poor Roswell hardly knew
which way to turn when confronted
by such a multitude of girls and
It's said that he would liked to have
danced with them all first but he
compromised very nicely and hon

First Aid Rules
Stage Fright-If a patient is I'M
conscious hang him, face up, over
convenient fence. See if he is
breathing through his ears. Take off
his shoes and throw them away. If
he is still unconscious go through
his pockets. That will bring him to.
