OVER THE TOP!
"Over the top!"

over the top!"
This must be the battle cry in the
kitchen of every American home to-
day, as well as the battle cry on the
fields of Europe.
"Over the top!'
When the soldier at the front hears
this cry he knows that all the hours
of training and waiting are over.
The hour for real fight has come.
over the top!"-and he goes over
the trench face to face with the en-
emy.
And what does this H4ctle cry
mean in the kitchen of our American
homes?
1t means that the time of talking
about food winning this war and
how we must save it, is past.
"Over the top" Get into the real
fight of saving food! Face the en-
cmy. Starvation, that is invading
TIE countries of our associates in
this war, despite the efforts of their
brave women to check its advance.
These women have put up a splen-
did fight They knew, that their men
were putting all their strength into
beating back the enemy and they,
their wives, sisters, mothers and
sweethearts, must face the great
Toll and Sacrifice
The toll and sacrifice of this strug-
gle no one but themselves will ever
know. Women whose nearest ap-
proach to farm labor before the war
was to train their rose vines to grow
over their porches and pick fresh
sweet peas for their drawingroom
tables are doing the heavy work of a
farm laborer to-day. They are
plowing, raising crops, feeding and
tending livestock, keeping cattle
barns and farm machinery in re-
pair.
Besides the farming, the women
are practically running the food fac
tories, keeping them going day and
night as long as they can obtain the
raw food products with which to
work.
Down to the last child these peo-
pie have learned something that very
few people here in America have as
yet learned. 1t is this: The strength
of the first line trench depends on
the strength of the bread line. AS
long a sthe women can hold the
bread line under the shock of war.
the men can hold the trenches.
When the women fail, the men fail.
In their hour of need, the wo-
men of Europe are calling to you,
women of America. over the topn
Into fight with US against hunger!"
If we are to help them, we must
save food as never before. Where

incredulously.

you know times are serious and we
could very well do with less?"
Helen who had imagined that
Warren would be delighted with ev-
| erything, flushed with veXation ans
disappointment. She ate the crown
ing glory of Marys strayberry short
cake in silence. and felt like crawl
ing off in corner somewhere for a
good cry. Warren having had his
say was finished, and was much sur
prised when his efforts to clear mat
ters up afterward met with little re-
sponse.
Two nights later Helen met War
rem downtown for dinner, and they
went to a hotel at Warrens sug-
geStion. The very first thing that
Warren said on picking up a menu
was to remark that it was ridiculous
to limit each person to two wheat
rolls.
Helen's mind jumped back imme-
diately to her home dinner. but she
said nothing, and as the waiter came
up for their order, she looked
dreamily about the dining room
content to have Warren order what
he liked. She was brought back sud
denly to a consciousness that he was
having an alteration with the
waiter.
IT'S against the rules, SIR"
Well, it oughtn't to be-" Warren
growled.
Warren" expostulated Helen,
you couldn't possibly eat more than
two rolls. dear; you never eat much
bread at home"
But it's ridiculous TO come to
place where they charge as they do
here and to be limited on everything
if one has the money to pay"
Helen. with flaming cheeks, waited
till the waiter had gone off to exc
cute their order before she re-
marked:
Il think 1T is very small matter
to make so much fuss about"
There was an unpleasant silence,
and when the dinner was finally
brought Helen was feeling misera-
bly, unhappy. She reflected bitterly
that Warren made a great deal of
her time with him unpleasant, if not
actually unhappy. There always
seemed to be something for him to
find fault with. Helen wondered
vaguely if he were ever contented
with anything.
She watched the waiter serve the
meal and compared the price with
that of the surprise dinner. The diff
ference in favor of Helen's dinner
was almost staggering, and if she
had not been afraid of prolonging
the discussion she would have re-
arked on it. AS it was, she ate in
silence
But when she saw Warren finally
lean back in his chair with still one
of his rolls untouched, she could
not refrain from remarking:
II should think you would be
ashamed to have the waiter take
that roll away, Warren" She said
it with such an air of disgust and
the rebuke was so richly deserved
that Warren actually had the grace
to look sheepish.

Seven Taken in Raid on
House Suspected of Having
Narcotic Drugs For Sale

Four women and three men were
taken in a raid on the house at S07
East street, said to be run by Stella
Collier last night. With these seven
persons a number of hypodermic
needles and a quantity of powder,
said to be narcotic drugs were Sc
cured from the house by the police.
The Collier woman was held under
$500 bail for hearing to-day.
Several of those arrested last
night have been arrested previously
in connection with a crusade against
the drug traffic here. Investigation
of the homes of two of the arrested
persons disclosed the presence of
hypodermic needles and powders be-
lieved to be drugs.
The six arrested with Stella Col

Advice to the Lovelorn

Dear Miss Fairfax:
A young gentleman has been call
ing on me for two years and has Of
ten told me he cared a lot for me.
He simply raves when ! have an
other fellow. So try to be true and
really am true to him. But the
other week, a certain girl came
homo from school, and 1 heard that
he has been going with her and try
ing to keep me in the dark of it.
Now Dear Miss Fairfax, what
sling? Or shall 1 not say anything
ever?
Sincerely,
Worried.
My dear girl, by no means give
the young man the "sling" as you
call it, until you have had a friend
ly talk with him. Ask him frankly
about the other girl, and her stand
ing with him. Explain to him that
you have always been considerate
with him in regard to his wish that
you do not go with other fellows, and
explain that you expect fair treat
ment from him. Remind him that
it is q poor rule that will not work
both ways. If he has come to dis
regard his liking for you because
of the other girl, he should be frank
aud tell you so, in order that there is
no misunderstanding.
/ wonder, Worried. if you are old
enough to be devoting all your atten-
tion to one young man. Remember,
until you are of proper age, it is
better always to be a friend to all
the boys, rather than too devoted to
Just one of them
Dear Miss Fairfax:
l am going with a young man and
/ love him very much, and l think
he cares great deal for me.
But on the other hand, I go with
girl who is very funny in some
ways.
When this fellow asks me to go
for walk, she seems as though she
does not want me to go. If 1 stand
around on the street talking, when
am with her, she always wants to
| go. When she is standing talking
with him while I am not with her,
she doesn't mind. She is always
acting soft in front of the boys and
makes me very cross.
know / am very jealous and is it
wrong for me to stop going with her
on account of this? If it is lust
because I am jealous, please tell me
how to overcome it. 1 have tried
so hard. but can't.
Heartbroken.
Dear little Heartbroken:
Jealousy is merely a form of sell
fl! hness, and therefore should not
be allowed to creep into the charac-
ter Of any of my girls. Do not mind
the actions of the girl friend you
| sp eak about; If the boy of whom you
are SO fond really loves you, he will
dislike the other girl for her un-
| ladylike actions quite as much as
you do. The only way to overcome
| jealousy is to exert all the force of
your will. Remember to be selfish
ly jealous is SMALL and you must
not tolerate such feelings in regard
to the man you love or the girl
whose friend you are supposed to
be.
Don't let the girl friend influence
you in your treatment of the man
you say YOU love. He can not help
any of her actions. If necessary,
tell her frankly about her actions.
which you do not like. and see II
she can not explain those acts of
hers which meet with your disap-
proval, or at least try to overcome
them.

ARTIFICIAL LIMBS
Manufactured From Tree That
Grows in California

Many thousands of the men
manned on Europe's battlefield of
all races and. climes will wear arti-
fetal limbs manufactured from a
tree that grows in California. 1t is
known as the yucca, or Joshua tree,
and is especially suited for this pur-
pose because of the toughness and
lightness of its wood.
The yucca tree is produce of the
desert and thrieves in places where
nothing else will grow. Ordinarily
it reaches a height of from fifteen
to twenty feet. and has great limbs
out of proportion to the trunk It's
wood not only is light in weight
and tough of fiber, but can be easily
shaped. Surgeons splints also are
made of this wood.-Chicago Jour
