ASK AUTO OWNERS
TO HELP MESS FUND
MEN WHO GET CARS FIXED FOR
NOTHING AT UNIVERSITY
SHOULD DONATE

The mess fund for the soldiers at tn
university is growing slowly Two sub
scriptions of 81 each, making a total o
$33 to date, were received today from
Mrs Grant Robbins and Professor H
W. McDermott
A suggestion that has real merit ha:
been made This mess fund is needed
for the men who are taking special train
ing at the university There are 20 men
now engaged in auto mechanics. They
take cars into the shop, overhaul and
repair them and put them in splendid
running order and do not charge a cent.
They are not allowed to make any
charge They have done work on cars
that, at the regular rate, would have
cost the owner from SIS to $50, and it
cost him nothing.
The men need money for delicaces,
which the regular army ration does not
supply The people of Moscow have
undertaken to raise this money by pop
ular subscription. The Star Mirror is
taking these subscriptions and has only
$33 of the $3.50 required 1t has been
suggested that the men who are getting
their cars fixed free of charge donate
to the mess fund. Some of the car own
ers have offered to pay the men for the
work, but this cannot be accepted Pro-
fessor McDermott, who is instructor for
the men at work, has been asked to put
up a subscription box at the machine
shop where car owners can drop in
what they want to give for the mess
fund When man has work worth SIS
to $50 done on his car he can very easily
contribute from 81 to $40 for the mess
fund. Car owners can put their contri
button in an envelope. mark their names
on it and drop it in the box. Professor
McDermott will see that the money is
turned into The Start Mirror fund and
given the proper credit.
A case in point is that of the owner
of large car who had it completely
overhauled 1t would have cost him $50
at low estimate at any garage His
only expense was for oil and parts,
which, of course, must be paid for, and
nothing for work The entire cost of
overfauling the car and putting it in
prime condition was $640 for oil and
extra parts. The man offered to pay
for the work, but pay cannot be ac-
copied He could have, and yet can,
contribute to the mess fund for the men.
Let every car owner who gets his car
repaired at the University shop con-
tribute something to the mess fund A |
few days ago there were 26 cars in the
shop If each owner would have con-
:ributed S. to the mess fund (and the
work on the cars if done at a garage
would have cost from S. to $4O), it
would mean $50 toward the $3.50 need
ID. Let us have lot of subscriptions
rom car owners to the NEST fund.
Professor McDermott will show you
where the contribution box is located.

A Bilious Attack.

When you have a bilious attack
your liver fails to perform it's func-
tions. You become constipated. The
food you eat ferments in your stom-
ach instead of digesting. This in
flames the stomach and causes
nausea, vomiting and a terrible head
ache. Take three of Chamberlain's
Tablets. They will tone up your liver,
clean out your stomach and you will
soon be as well as ever. They only
cost quarter. A.

/ lars was found, the Germans having
failed to explode it. The Germans
made every effort possible to destroy
the great supplies of ammunition in
the vicinity of Fere- -Tardenois, hav-
ing that village and its vicinity under
long range fire for three days.
Little traps left here and there by
the Germans served to annoy but not
to delay the Americans. An officer
lifted a wire which was lying in
roadway. He pulled the wire and a
chain of three mines exploded. No
one was near enough to be injured.
Among the scores of villages re-
deemed, not one is tenable. Deserted
and in ruins they mark the sites to
which doubtless the people soon will
return, only to find themselves sur
rounded by blackened heaps of rub
bish and broken stone that once were
houses.
The few inhabitants of Vile Moy-
enne found friends in the enemy SOL
diers from Lorraine. They say the
Germans refused to feed them, but
that the men from Lorraine divided
rations with them, encouraged them
and professed delight at the news of
French successes.
From various villages come reports
that thousands of Germans are
northward in the great re-
,reat, chanting as they marched

APPLE BUTTER.

Boil cider down to two-thtrds of the original quantity. Into this, when it is lukewarm, turn as many peeled and sliced apples as the liquid will cover, and simmer, stirring often from the bottom and beating with a wooden spoon or ladle until the apples are very tender. When the first supply of apples is soft and broken to pieces, strain them out into a bowl and re- turn the cider to the fire. Into this put more pared and sliced apples. and cook in like fashion, relay after relay, until the cider is all absorbed. Stir all together in a great jar and set aside for 12 hours. Then return to the fire and cook slowly until you have a soft brown mass of equal con- sistency throughout. It keeps best if put up in air-tight, self-sealing cans while hot.
 The cooks of half century ago kept their apple butter all winter, packed away in stone jars when cold, laying muslin, cut to fit the jar, over the surface of the "soft brown mass, " and pouring melted (not hot) lard half an inch thick upon the cloth.- Marion Harland in Christian Herald.

MRS. BOAS FINDS
 ADVANTAGES IN MUNITIONS WORK
f'''.'s'.'- s's .'.'-'.
 MISS EMMA WEBB

When Ralph B. Boas, head of the High school in Springfield, Mass, per mitted himself to be put in charge of the speakers bureau of the Bridge port District Ordnance Office, it was no part of his plan that any member of his family should demonstrate that making munitions is woman's job" MT. Boas was put at the head of small army of men who went out to preach that doctrine through the Bridgeport district. MT. Boas preach ed it himself. He preached it home to such good purpose that Mrs. Boas was the first woman in Bridgeport to sign a registration card for part time work in a munitions plant.
 Mrs. Boas is a graduate of Brown University. She is an A. B. and an A. M. She has now been a munitions worker for nearly a fortnight.
 Mrs. Boas sees many advantages in putting older women into the muni- tions factories.
 ''They may not achieve the dex- terity and rapidity of younger women" she said ''but they will make up in careful attention to de- tail a quality which, will make them valuable as government workers"
 She has been impressed by the un- failing courtesy which has been shown to all women workers, both by men and women in charge of depart ments and by men workers in the plant
 She tells of the earnestness of pur- pose shown by the younger girls at work.
 '"They may be careless in their dress, but they apply themselves to their work with a determination which, is inspirationaI," she declared.
 Mrs. Boas finds romance in her work
 ''It adds so much to the interest in my work to know that upon the ac- curacy of my vision depends the lives | of soldiers who will use the ammuni- tion I inspect"
 She has found the forewomen mar vels of patience and understanding. She says:
 ''They all have personal charm and they are wonderful in their manner of explaining and teaching. They never call one down for mistakes. My father owned and operated a factory, and I had some opportunity to know something of the treatment accorded factory workers of an earlier period. I am sure they were never treated with the extreme courtesy and con sideration that are given workers in the factory where 1 am employed"
