Isl FAILS TO OK
The SQUEkL OF A Pig

Toronto.-No exhibit at the Cana

toresting to women visitors than the
cooking demonstration OF Leony
Deronet, who is chez o. the great hotel
system presided over by John Bow
man, the chief of the l-0te! and Res
taurant Division Of the U. S. Food
Administration. Since the war began.
he has gone in for elimination of waste
With vengeance ~ il IS nGw sa- !
that he could serve pigs squeal on
toast-except that he is using rye
tread anu corn mullins this season to
save wheat.
Leony says the housewife has to be
educated not to throw away certain
parts Of the turkey, Lamb and pig,
which she now discards. For in lance,
he says, very excellent Gis'f can be
made from the head of goldfish that
fried bluefish cheek is palatable, ana
an excellent dish can be made from
Sleeps trotters, as we'll as geese and
duck feet; also OK feet A very pop
ular dish, he says, among the labor
ing class in France, is goose Blood
with onions, and that the lung of a
healthy calf or pig will make very
excellent stew. Blood pudding is an
other, while still another is pigs skin
In jelly.
Some items on that thrifty menu do
not sound very tempting, but num-
Der of newspaper woa.en who attend
ed in fear and trembling a typical
Leony luncheon emerged sma cking
t. cir lips. Some of them positively
rhapsodized over the result of the
following recipe:
"Take one dozen feet of geese or
duck; blanch them and take the cpl
dennis out; cut the mails out; boil
them in two quarts of water for two
Or three hours; well season and serve
with Poulette sauce or cream sauce;
with the broth you will be able to
make a good SOUP"
When a famous chef will stake his
reputation on the palataDility of these
Y eird-sounding dishes, it shows that
lis kitchen saving is no mere fad.
Real economy is practicable. Not ev-
cry cook, of course, is Leony
peronet, but all can follow his ex-
ample if only long way off.

MAKE USE OF FAIR PRICE LIST.

Hoover helps those who help them
selves. The way for the American
people to wipe out excess profits on
foodstuffs is to keep tab on the Fair
Price List and report to the Food Ad-
ministration cases where extortionate
prices are demanded. Offenders can
then be brought to book.
The retailer too who only wants
6air profits should welcome the Off
cial price list because If he sticks to
the figures there set down, he is SAFE
guarded from any allegations OF prof.
teering or unfair dealing.
The Food Administrators list now
includes staple fool r"o@n"tF. which
constitute about 80 per cent. Of tie

The base hospitals are at Camps
Merritt and Mills, former embarka-
ton, now debarkation cantonments
for the overseas army. The debarka-
ton hospitals are strategically locat-
ed on or near the harbor front.
The port medical authorities. re-
sponsible for soldier patients from the
time of their arrival from Europe to
their delivery at general hospitals
nearest their home communities, aim
to clear their charges from the de-
parkation hospitals within a week
The work begins at the port quaran-
tine station. Here medical officers
board incoming transports and assist
the doctors aboard in preparing the
men for landing. In practically all
cases the wounded are taken directly
from the ship to the harbor hospital
boat, which conveys them to a pier
near one of the debarkation hospitals,
where ambulances are in waiting.
While the men get their "shore
bearings their cases are studied and
assignments made to reconstruction
or convalescent hospitals.
The next process is the attachment
of a medical liaison officer to the
group he is to conduct to an interior
station. When he has become ia
miliar with his charges he applies for
a hospital car or train, according to
the size of his party. and for an es-
cort of doctors, nurses and orderlies.
If a train is assigned. the journey,
even across the continent, is simple,
but if the wounded fill only one car,
which must be attached to regular
trains, the feeding problem becomes
acute. Here the Red Cross lends it's
aid, arranging by telegraph with its
auXiliaries along the way for meals
for the travellers at points where
neither dining car service nor station
restaurants are availa BILE.
The hospital trains, equipped with
specially constructed Pullman sleep
ing and kitchen cars, have accommo-
dations both for walking cases. and
for men so severely injured that they
must remain abed both day and night.
In anticipation of their use on an ex-
tensiVe scale, fifty officers and 200
M en- are in training here and a small
er company at Newport News, as es-
cort detaChments

with the homes of the wounded. And
in this service the medical debarka-
ton corps, suddenly thrust into the
foreground of publicity by the col
lapse of the Central Powers, plays an
important and picturesque part.
The end of the war found the port
medical authorities prepared to
shoulder the heavy burden laid upon
them. During 10 months of Ameri-
can participation in the conflict they
had maintained an embarkation hos
pital service, treating the compare
lively rare cases of illness among
troops ready to go overseas When
American forces entered the trench
es small groups of wounded, evacu-
ated from hospitals in France, began
to filter through the service on this
side Of the Atlantic. With this ex-
perieace accumulated by the lessons
Of the Allied governments in repa-
triating their wounded, the debarka-
ton system was put in readiness Ior
the reception Of injured men at the
rate of 10000 to $4,000 a month
During the war and q five weeks
period following the signing of the
armistice, approximately H.
wounded had been received at New
York and 4.500 at Newport News.
And the auth critics were prepared,
on official advices from Washington
to handle $4,000 cases in the next four
! months.
The army embarkation service at
| New York, which sent three fourths
| of the nations 100000 nen over
| seas, is expected to debark majority
| of the returning forces, and the west
| ward flow of wounded also will be di-
! rected here, with some diversion to
| Newport News and possibly, later on,
| to Boston. To carry on the work at
| this port the medical department has
| personnel of 7,306-greater than

SEVEN BILLION WHAT

London Banker Thinks This
Would Pay for All Damage Done

London, Nov. IS Correspondence
of the Associated Press. )-One Lon
don banker estimates that Germany
Will have to pay to the Allies for
reparation and restitution about ST.
00,000.000. Calculated on a 5 per
cent. basis, with 1 per cent. sinking
fund, this would mean an annual
charge on the German revenue Of
$450.000, 900. He says there can be
no question of Germany's ability to
meet this demand.
1T is impossible, he says, discussing
the subject in a newspaper article, to
arrive at any approximate figure as
to damages and robberies in the in
vaded territory. For Belgium" the
article continues, Il would put the
from war to peace, which reversed
amount of indemnity at $1,40O,O OO,-

towns account for som ething like
$500, 100000. I know of another es-
innate for Belgium which is as high
as $4,000. 100000, and a Belgian OF
some authority estimates the amount
at 100000, 900.
With regard to France he says one
cannot reckon the loss suffered, but
considering that the war has been
Waged for the most part on French
Industrial area, we may put the fig
Ire at $4,000, 000,0 900"
Italy's damage is computed at
$3.50, 900. The same amount is
set as Rumania's bill, including the
!OsS of quantities of foodstuffs AID
damage to oil wells and other prop
arty. He thinks that $4,000, 900
would cover Serbia loss, and a like
sum probably would reimburse Eng
and for damages caused by air raids

Shipping losses are then discussed
I estimate" he says, the loss. Of

value of 5000 a ton, this would fig

II have heard an estimate which

cal. But [ would put the figure my
Ielf at $500, 900, 900, which does not,

of the war
Regarding Germany's finances, he
calls attention to the last pre- war
budget presented to the reichsta &,
which showed a revenue of $S75, 000,-
300. The estimate for the army was
1892, 500, 900, and for the navy $107,-

FAST NORTHDOUND
 TRAIN RUNS INTO OPEN SWITCH AND ]. THREE MEN INJURED
l.. & N. Train No. 4 From Birmingham Is Derailed at atNewcastle-Engineer and Fireman and
 Cook Injured

Three men were slightly injured last night at 9:4S o'clock when the fast train of the l.. and N, No. 4, run ming several hours late, crashed into an open switch at Newcastle, a little town 2 miles north of Birmingham. The train was running at high rate of speed when the accident occurred, and the engine and two baggage cars were derailed.
 Engineer w. II. Duncan of Decatur was scalded about the body; Alfred Tyler, the negro fireman, was scalded on his feet and legs, and Joe Thomas. negro cook on the diner suffered a fracture of the right arm.
 Immediately following the wreck, officers here were notified and an en- zine was rushed to the scene to bring the coaches on the track back to Bir- mingham. Only the two last Pull tho passengers on the train were crowded into the two cars and brought back here.
 The relief train reached Birmingham about 1215 o'clock, and the injured men were rushed to St. Vincent's hos pital.
 The engine was completely destroy ed. The track for a distance of about 100 yards was also torn up. Investi- gation will be started at once, accord ing to railroad officials, to determine the reason of the open switch
 None of the injured men are con- sidered seriously injured. Passengers, although considerably jared and shak- en, did not suffer any injuries.
