perience and training. Commander

tary Daniels, Is the type of man who
is helping make the American navy

of his crew. His present position
makes 1t his duty to advise the secre-
tary on all technical matters that come
before him.

mo FOOD PROGRAM
YET" CABLES HOOVER

No definite food program can yet be
laid down is the message cabled by
Hoover after a week of investigation
in Europe. Pending the determination
Of complete program, he arranged
before his departure for the purchase
and dispatch of two hundred and
seventy thousand tons of food to meet
the most urgent demands. The first
of the ships carrying these supplies
has been reported as passing the
Gibraltar on its way to feed southern
Europe.
Negotiations with the Allied gov
ernments regarding shipping, finances
and organization are still in progress"
cables Hoover THE liberated terri
tories are daily and urgently calling
upon the United States for food.
Until definite program can be de-
cided upon, we must direct all our
present efforts to maintaining an atti-
tude of mind which win prepare the
public for more definite conservation
when the time comes for requesting
it,"
"Our point of view has now been
changed from a war necessity to a
humanitarian appeal. The need for
voluntary cooperation as distin-
guished from enforced regulation be-
comes increasingly apparent,

Mail Christmas Packages Early.

The Post Office Department has
again called attention to the adyisa-
ollity and necessity for mailing Christ
mas gifts early. Railroads. will be tax
d to their capacity bringing home
Iemobilized soldiers, tens of thous-
ands day being discharged from
the home camps, and the troop move
ment from Europe is well under way.
The Christmas gift which is mailed
early is much more likely TO reach it's
destination in good condition than
one that is mailed during the big rush
of business of the last two weeks, when
the only practical way to handle the
immense volume of business is to
send parcels to state terminal distrib-
buting points. Practically the same
force which handles the every day
business will have to handle the
Christmas rush, and there promises
to be even less baggage and mail car
space available. 1t would be impos-
sible to deliver every Christmas gift
on Christmas Day, so the words do
not open until Christmas, should be
placed onevery parcel mailed early.

REMOVE ALL RESTRICTIONS
ON CONSUMPTION OF SUGAR
Households and Public Eating Places
Are No Longer Limited and Sugar
Bowls May Return to Tables.

Every restriction on the sale and
use OF sugar has been removed except
that on the price, and in no case may
retailers charge more than eleven

Grocers need no longer keep sugar
books to record the purchases of their
customers as housewives are no

month-they may have all they wish
and proprietors of hotels and other
public eating places are no longer
obliged to purchase their supplies on
the basis of four pounds for ninety
meals.
The sugar bowl can reappear on the
table, frosted cakes may be served,
and homemade candy cooked on the
kitchen stove.

In mystical Brittany the Christ him
self is thought to come to bless the
households of the pious, especially the
homes of simple shepherds.
In Spain on Twelfth Night" all the
people, young and old, put their shoes
and slippers out on the balcony out
side the window in order that the three
kings journeying by may see and fill
them. There are also grotesque Christ

of Teutonic babyhoOd, has a load of
nuts and apples and other goodies with
him, as well as his traditional bunch of
switches.
The 'julbok" or ''klapperbok," tall,
thin beast, with goatskin covered head
is after naughty Danish children, just
as the ''habersack" is after those in the
Hartz mountains. SunderkIoos sends
sometimes a goat laden with presents.
The animals which the saint of
Christmas uses for his carriers are
quite as various. Bonner and Bitten
