WHAT THE PEOPLE MUST
DO TO GAIN THE VICTORY

Gather the people, sanctify the
congregation, assemble the elders
gather the children and those that
suck the breast. Let the bride.
groom 60 forth of his chamber and
the bride out of her closet.
Let the priest, the ministers OF
the Lord, weep between the porch
and the altar, and let them say,
Spare thy people, 0 Lord, and give
not thine heritage to reproach that
the heather should rule over them.
Wherefore should they say among
the people, where is thy God?
Then will the Lord be jealous for
his land and pity the people.
Yea, the Lord will answer and
say unto his people, Behold | will
send you corn and wine and oil,
and ye shall be satisfied Herewith
And | will no more make you a
reproach among the heathen;
But will remove far off from
you the northern army and will
drive him into a land barren and
desolate, with his face toward the
east sea and his hinderpart toward
the utmost sea, and his stink shall
come up and his i'll SAVIOUR shall
come up, because he hath done
great things.
Fear not, O land, be glad and re-
ioice; for the Lord will do great
things. Be not afraid, ye beast of
the field; for the pastures OF the
wilderness do spring, for the tree
beareth her fruit, the fig tree and
the vine do yield their strength,
Be glad then, ye children of Zion,
and rejoice in the Lord your God;
for he hath given you the former
rain moderately, and he will cause
to come down for you the rain, the
former rain and the later rain in
the first month.

SAVE VEGETABLES AND FRUIT
BY DRYING.

Dry the vegetables and fruits. Save
Jars and tins and money. Every
housewife who has good war garden
should begin now to prepare, while
vegetables are plentiful, a supply for
use next winter.
With simple and inexpensive facill-
ties everyone can save not only large
quantities but quantities OF food
which are too small to can conven'
iently. A few sweet potatoes or ap'
pies or peas can be saved in this way
and thus waste Is avoided.
To secure fine quality Of dried
products much depends upon having
the vegetables absolutely fresh, young,
tender and perfectly clean.
Three main ways of drying are ap.
plicable in the home manufacture OF
dried fruits and vegetables, namely,
sun drying, drying by artificial heat,
and drying by air blast,
Driers Easily Made.
A cheap and very satisfactory drier
for use over the kitchen stove can be
made by any handy boy or carpenter
from a small amount of small.mesh
galvanized.wire netting and number
OF laths or strips OF wood about one.
half inch thick and two inches wide.
The screen may be tackled directly
on the framework to make the drying
shelves, or the framework can be
made to support separate trays. BY
using two laths nailed together the
framework may be stiffened and larg.
er trays made II desirable, This form
or any OF the Lighter makes Of driers
can be suspended from the ceiling
over the kitchen range or over the oil,
gasoline, or gas stove, and II will util'
lie the hot air which rises during the

which otherwise would be wasted

Do NOT WASTE !
YOUR SKIM MILK
Why Not Utilize skim Milk For Max
lna Cottage Cheese and Sell Maatr

Don't waste the skim milk or feed
II all to the hogs. Make cottage
cheese and eat il or sell it at good
price 1t is true that skim milk is
used economically in feeding hogs for
pork production, vet 100 pounds OF
skim milk will produce Is pounds OF
cottage cheese as compared with only
49 pounds of dressed pork when fed
on corn. 1t is said that one pound OF
cottage cheese supplies more protein
than one pound of beef, pork, lamb
veal. or fowl, consequently, those
who eat cottage cheese need less
meat. Why not utilize the skim milk
and sell the meat? This would help
greatly to supply our soldiers with
food that can be transported.
Cottage cheese alone is an appetiz-
ing and nutritious dish, but may also
be served with sweet or sour cream,
and some people add a little sugar,
or chives, chopped onion, or caraway
seed. Write to the Extension Divi-
sion, College Of Agriculture. Fayette-
Vile, for recipes which tell how TO
serve cottage cheese with preso o-ves
and jellies and how to make cottage
cheese salad, cottage cheese rolls
fused like meat rolls), Boston roast,
pimento and cottage cheese roast, cot
tage cheese and nut roast and cheese
sauce.
Every housewife will find it proflta-
BILE to make cottage cheese for the
market as we'll as for home use. In
terested persons who have never
made cottage cheese In large quanti-
ties and wish to consistently produce
the flavor and texture which mark
the best quality should also write for
the circular giving directions for maxi
ing cottage cheese.
Miss Inez Ward, a cottage cheese
specialist from the Dairy Division OF
the U. S. Department of Agriculture,
is working with the Extension forces
Of the Arkansas College Of Agricul-
ture and has met with great success
everywhere. Miss Ward will be glad
to answer all questions sent to the
Extension Offices, Fayetteville.

CHATEAU DES HALLES
NOW CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL
One Of the Most Complete Es.
Establishments of Its Kind in
France, With Jolly Playrooms
and Toys to Amuse Patients.

Up in the mountains, where the
snow falls early and lies deep, 80 miles
from Lyons. is the little French village
Of Les Halles-a story book village,
with its massive stone church standing
sentinel over two long rows Of trim,
oue-gray plaster cottages. And mile
farther on is the Chateau des Halles,
where your Red Cross has established
Il home for 200 sick children.
Mangini built the chateau. Man
sni was the man who built the rail-
road along the Riviera and many 9th
er railroads In France. And thirty
odd years ago he built this castle up
in the mountains for his country home.
But soon after his two children died.
Then he died, and when his widow fol-
lowed him she left the chateau to the
city of Lyons to be used as hospital
for children.
The Wars Wreckage.
Then came the war. A little rivulet
II the wars wreckage began to trickle
in at Evian-"repatries,' elderly men
and women, children, even babies, who
had once lived In the parts Of France
engulfed by the German tides and
whom the Germans, finding them USE
less, were beginning to ship back into
France by way Of Switzerland. Grad
ually this rivulet swelled. Soon 1000
Of these unfortunates were arriving
at Evian daily. AND fully half Of
rnem were children. undernourished,
thinly clad, dirty, slckly and, worse,
grim spiritless, with faces that had
,o""Orrnn now 10 smile
To care for these children was the
task your Red Cross at once assumed.
Working with the French authorities,
the Red Cross secured permission TO
make use Of the old and almost forgot
ten Chateau des Halles up there in
the mountains. For years the c0stle
had been closed. No effort had ever
been made to ft 1t up as hospital.
Your Red Cross had to begin at the
very beginning.
Rooms Big and jolly.
But what a wonderful task II has
accomplished The Chateau des
rIalles, transformed into a chidrens
hospital and rest home In furious
haste under the terrible pressure of
war needs, with little time to think
twice and no time to re>tieve errors,
Is not only one Of the most complete
establishments Of Its kind It Is one Of
the best children's hospitals in all
France. The two rooms where the
arriving children are isolated for
few days are big, jolly rooms-just
what Is need to effacc from the little
)nes' minds the memories Of those iron
lays behind the German lines. The
big play room is strewn with rocking
horses and wonderful .enticIng
parrots and other toys carved by the
wounded poilus.
And so you stray from room to room,
md everywhere you find new evil
lences Of this watchful care. And
then you reach the bathrooms. This
chateau was built by man Of wealth.
Its plumbing was excellent and yet II
has been stripped out and replaced
with little, low wash basins and little
shower baths that the children can use
more comfortably.
That Is how your Red Cross thinks
and cares for Frances children.
