Under The CanOuf Iag0 INTIMATE WAR EXPERIENCES AND
 OBSERVATIONS OF
 LOWELL MELLET
 (United Correspondent

that Wherefore the introductory re- mark of Ambassador Page-introduc- ing him as principal speaker at the weekly session of the American Lunch con Club today-opened up stagger- ing possibilities for the imagination
 When we consider" said the am. bassador, that he is only half Amer1- can, we can't help wondering what he would have accomplished had he been wholly American!"
 A sandy-haired eye-browed and compleXioned man rose when the cheers and laughter had subsided. His round face looked youthful, but his hair was worn thin as if by hard thinking, and his shoulders stopped as though they carried the weight of a century. This stoop is the munitions minister's most striking physical char. acteristic. yardstick touching tath the back of his head and his shoulders would register an angle of 45 degrees. Aand yet he looks vigorous and strong
 The speech he delivered, as read in the evening papers, is a profoundly eloquent Oration. As heard across the smoke-filled banquet room of the Savoy it was something less. Care fully written orations sometimes are like little folks; they should be seen, not heard. Perhaps this thought oc- cured to Lord Northcliffe, sitting next to the speaker, for he left before Churchill ended, possibly preferring to read the finished article in the proof.
 If to others this sounds unkind, it won't to Churchill, for it has not been long since he was a journalist and every journalist who has become a statesman will tell you he can't help writing his speeches with a view to how they will look in print rather than how they will sound when delivered
 At that, being still young, Churchill may yet become great orator. He has one thing in common with De 1 mosthenes-a lisp. It leads him tc say English langwish" and little shattered shtates," but in his case, as in Demosthenes', it can't keep him down
 He will yet be prime minister-ii his sun hasn't set.

LONDON, Jan. 10 (by maiD .-Ac- cording to my authentic friend Ray Hay, of Sunnyside, Wash, there's no. body in all the armies like Hobby Clark, of the Tt Geary Horse. Nobhy comes from somewhere in the U. S. A . but enlisted in the Canadian cavalry at Winnipeg.
 His activities on various F'ren h fronts have won him the D. C NJ. with the bar, the Military Medal with bar, the Croix de Guerre, the Legion of Honor and the Cross of St. George, the last named from the Russian gov ernment. He'd undoubtedly have the " C., for which he has been recom- mended, were it not for his "crime" record. Hobby is unruly. The pen alties he has had to pay for his blind ness toward discipline make up a long list.
 But the other day he managed to have one black mark completely erased. It seems ninety days field punish ment had been ordered for him and he had only undergone four days of his term. The officer commanding-to make this sound technical, one should say the o. C.-observing changes talk ing place in the German trenches op- posite, expressed a desire to know who his new enemies were. Hobby overheard him express it.
 Beg pardon, sir" said Hobby; Will you trade those papers you've got against me for a German soldier?"
 "Yes," said the o. c.
 Hobby disappeared and presently re- appeared.
 Beg pardon, sir, gimme the pa pers"
 First show me your German" said the 0. c.
 I've got him stacked up outside the trench, said Hobby, "and if you don't give me the papers, I'll take him back"

along southwestern Alaska. Last Thursday Capt Hansen received wire less instructions to go to the aid of the Puritan. The captain and three members of the crew of the Puritan were standing by the vessel when the Zapora arrived, the others having started out in dories for Latouche to secure assistance.
 The zapora tried for two days to pull the Puritan off the rocky beach but was unsuccessful. There is a small hole forward but this will be patched, if the boat is saved, and she will then steam to Seward probably and damages repaired.

PURITAN GOES ASHORE
 DURING \ SNOW STORM

The fishing boat Puritan, of the Booth Fisheries Company, is hard aground at Cape Cleare, on Montague Island, and if a southeaster springs up will be total loss The Puritan ran aground about week ago during a wind and snow torm but it was not until three days ago that any boat happened to be in the vicinity to rem der aid.
 The Zapora, of the Independent fisheries Company, of Seattle, last Thursday, when at sea, received wire less instructions to go to the aid of the Puritan and she did At high tide the Zapora attempted to pull the Puri- tan into deep water but jagged rocks were holding her firmly.
 The Zapora arrived in Seward after casks to be used in floating the Buri- tan and left for Cape Cleare having secured fifty empty whiskey barrels there These will be dashed along the sides of the Puritan and are expected to float the craft at high tide.
 Capt Jacob Hansen, of the Zapora, stated that the Puritan left Seattle two weeks ago for the halibut banks

Since I've been in London I've learn ed a lot about Winston Churchill. I've learned
 That his sun has set never to rise again.
 That he's bound to be the next prime minister.
 That he has the most precocious mind ever bestowed on a youth of 43 years.
 That he never has learned how to think.
 That submarines would be a thing of the past if he had been retained as first lord of admiralty.
 That the British navy would have been a thing of the past if he hadn't been fired.
 England's opinions are not exaltly unanimous on the subject of the Rt Hon. Winston, but they are certainly positive. Everybody agrees that whatever he is he is superlatively

Fruits Save Suuer.

All ripe fruits contain sugar. The
amount varies from about three ounces
or one-fifth cupful per pound in fresh
figs and plums to about one-half ounce
per pound in watermelon.
If the water is driven off from fruits,
as in the drying process, the sugar
becomes far more prominent than it
is in fresh fruits. Dried fruits, there
fore, taste far sweeter than fresh ones
and are for this reason often classed
among the sweets. 1t should be re-
membered, however, that sugar is
present in all fresh fruits, even in the
most acid ones, and that those persons
who wish to do so can economic ON
other kinds of sugar by eating large
amounts of fresh fruits in unsweet-
ened forms.
In warm weather melons and other
fruits may be used in place of made
desserts, which usually contain both
butter and sugar. Fruit and ice-cold
junket, which can be prepared from
skim milk, make a refreshing dessert
and utilize per1shable foods chiefly.
Or the dessert course may be omitted
entirely and a fruit salad with cot
tage cheese may be used in its place.
