YOUR SOLDIER

Miss Baker is one of the few wo-
men of the country who have no par
ticular boy in khaki or blue-no one
to be proud of, to worry about and
pray for. She had never dreamed of
thinking of all the soldiers as her
boys.
That was why she could go from
store to store and purchase all the
sugar she wanted. She said frankly
that there was no one in the trenches
for her, and she wasn't going to put
herself out to save sugar when she
could get all she wanted by going
around a little"
But there are few Miss Bakers now.
Even those women who have not
kept the jewellers busy making SER
vice pins have come to realize that
men stand in the mud and fight for
them. 1t has taken long time for
people to feel personally response
BILE, to the extent of clean plate and
sugarless tea, for the rations of a SOL
der.
Now people begin to see that they
can actually send a man to France
not by recruiting, for the days of en-
listment speeches are past, but by
saving. 1t lies within the power of
every citizen to provide space on a
transport for a soldier. This space
is saved from the demands Of the CT
william upon the shipping of the world.
Every ship sent to distant port for
food for the Allies means soldiers
kept in America. But when food is
shipped overseas from American
docks, food saved bit by bit in Amer
lean kitchens and dining rooms. then
ships are sent straight across, and
time is saved.
The frugality and carefulness of
the United States can keep the ships
of the Allies plying steadily across
the Atlantic The savings of civil
ian may transport soldier-his sol
der in very truth.

1t isn't age, it's carelessness that puts

organs in good condition and you will

The kidneys are the most overworked
organs in the human body. When they

talizes look out These sharp crystals
tear and scratch the delicate urinary
channels causing excruciating pain and
set up irritations which may cause pre-

One of the first warnings Of sluggish
kidney action is pain or stiffness in the
small of the back, high colored or scanty

rheumatism.

MAKE THE MOST OF
THE APPLE CROP

Most people know apples are health
full But a great many do not know
that they are among the most nutri
tious of fruits and that their value in
this way is higher than that of many
every day foods commonly regarded
as indispensable TO our tables. One
pound of raw apples has the food
fuel value of 290 calories. Translated
into everyday terms this means that
apples have about three-fourths the
nutritive value Of potatoes and as
every one knows, potatoes are
solid and dependable food
Without realizing the real food
value of apples, however. people have
nevertheless eaten them freely for
hundreds of years-yes, even back in
prehistoric times apples were COM
mon article of food.
Scientists tell us that apples in the
common form probably originated
thousands of years ago in that part
of the world south of the Caucasus
and watered by the Tigris and Eu-
pirates where the garden of Eden
is generally supposed to have en-
chanted our first parents.
America is now the leading apple
growing nation in the world. This
involves great responsibility on us
this year, for with food all over the
world so scarce, it becomes almost
sacred trust not to let any of our
apple crop go to waste.
In every home, which has storage
facilities, as many barrels of apples
as can be used should be stored as
soon as the good winter apple are in
the market
The windfall apples should be saved
by drying. Cut out the bruised part,
core and slice. Then drop into cold
water containing eight teaspoonfuls
of salt to the gallon, if light colored
product is desired. Leaving them
minute or two in salt water will pre-
vent discoloration. Remove surface
moisture, dry in sun or over stove
until leathery and pliable.
The best mint jelly is made with the
juice of the slightly unripe apples as
basis. Wash fresh mint leaves thor
oughly. To cupful of mint leaves
(packed solid add 1 cupful of boiling
water; set the mixture on the back of
the stove, and steep it for one hour.
Lay piece of cheesecloth over
bowl, pour the stepped mint leaves
into it, twist the ends of the cheese
cloth and press out all the moisture)
To cupful of apple juice add 1
to 2 tablespoonfuls of mint juice. If
the mint flavor is not sufficiently pro-
nounced, add drop or two of mint
extract Use %-cupful of sugar to
each cupful Of apple juice, and boil
the mixture rapidly until the jelly
test is obtained. Just before it is
poured into the scalded glasses, color
it green with vegetable coloring
matter.

IN FLANDERS FIELDS

In Flanders fields the peoples grow.
Between the crosses row by row,
That mark our place.
And in the sky, the larks
Still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard among the guns below;
We are the dead: short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Lived and we're loved.
And now we lie in Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe;
To you from falling hands we throw
The torch. Be yours to bear it high.
If ye break faith with US who die.
We shall not sleep. the poppies grow
In Flanders fields"

BASEBALL FOR THE FRENCH

Just as we see INTO be losing inter-
est in baseball. the French are taking
IL up. And just as the French have
been our teachers in the art of mod
ern war, we are to be their teachers
in this modern sport that is so, closely
interviewer with our own lighting.
The French army. like our own. can
not fight all the time. 1t needs rest
and recreation. and something to get
its mind of the stern work of the
battlefront So, by special request of
Gen. Cottes OF the French war min
istry, baseball instruction is to be
given to the entire French army. by
American experts who will train
French instructors and supervise their
efforts.
Il consider that this game consti-
tutes excellent exercise, develops pre-
cision and quickness of eye and is an
attractive pastime.' says Cen Cottes.
Precisely so. as we ourselves know
well. 1t will do the French as much
good as it has done our own boys
more, perhaps, because the French
have fewer outdoor sports than We
have. and are just waking up to their
value
1t is possible that the most interest
ing ball games played next season
win be between championship teams
representing respectively the Ameri-
can and French army-or. as they viii
probably be known by that time. the
Yanks and Franks. And we won't be
a bit sore about it if our pupils win

poned last month on account of the

Club OF Virginia for the Branch trophy.
AIthouSh the members were incon-
ventenced by the recent suspension of

Richmond Ashland interurban car line,
the members have found that they can
use the Lakeside line of the Virginia
Railway and Power Co. The latter line
liz not as convenient as the Ashland
line, but the club station is not more
than 4t0 Yards distant A forty~iniRute
schedule Is maintained on the Lake
side line, making the trip from Eighth

ty-fiye minutes.
