Winter Salads.

We are coming to realize that sal
ads are not the mere fripperies they
were formerly thought to be and that
certain amount of money spent for
them is a real investment. In the
winter time it is difficult to buy fresh
green things without large outlay
of money. Still even in the winter it
is possible to buy some salad mate
rials at considerably less cost than
others. The need for salads is three
fold. They provide raw food in the
diet and nutrition experts are telling
US that certain amount of raw
food is absolutely essential to per-
feet health.
In certain raw foods are found sub
stances that are destroyed by heat.
These substances are present in fruits
and vegetables. Also salads provide
mineral salts in the diet and mineral
salts help to build the body structure
and to keep the body in good condi-
ton. Lastly salads add bulk to the
diet. 1t is not good thing to eat
only foods that are compact and COM
pletely dgested. To keep the diges-
tive tract clear a certain amount of
undigestible material, or "roughage,"
should be supplied. The fiber of fruits
and vegetables acts as scourer in
the digestive tract.

ton at all and one can plan any kind
of salad within the reach of her purse
For the woman who has unlimited
means here is the opportunity to buy
all the crisp head lettuce, the delicious
pineapple, the choice grapefruit and
oranges, the tempting hot house to-
matoes and cucumbers, etc, that her
heart desires. You can spend your
money like a queen, realizing that nc
one is being deprived and you and
your grocer are the gamers.
Simple Dinner Salads.
For the ordinary dinner nothing is
nicer than a plain lettuce salad or let
tuce salad with slight vegetable gar
nish. Head and leaf lettuce are iden-
tical as far as food value is concerned.
The ideal dressing is, of course, the
French dressing, made of olive oil,
but the cheaper oils-the corn oil.
peanut oil, etc.-are equally satisfy
ing to the needs of the body. Plain
vinegar dressing pleases many peo-
pie or some kind of cooked salad
dressing. For slight variation with
cooked salad dressing mix raw grated
carrot with the dressing and place a
spoonful on the lettuce. Grated picked
beet may be used in the same way. A
dash of grated horseradish adds a
tang to the beets. A spoonful of
Thousand Island dressing makes a

By BEATRICE FAIRFAX.

Time is the most valuable thing
in the world. But it is as free to the
dollar and half a day ditch digger
as it is to the million-dollar and a
half year payer of income tax.
Have you ever stopped to face
this interesting fact? What you do
with one hour of your business day
is fairly indicative of what you are
going to do with the whole day
all your days-your life! .l
Howard came to the Fessenden
Offices with everything in the world
in his favor. He had been highly
recommended. No one liked his pred
ecessor. Howard was neat, pleasant
looking. boy with quiet, good man
ners and with agreeable voice. There
never was an Office boy who started
off under kindlier auspices. ...
And Howard seemed to Justify the
hopes of the Office. He was neat,
efficient, willing and agreeable. He did
what he was 'told-that could be
counted on. What could not be count
ed on was when he would do it. His
attitude might have been translated
from an old world proverb: IF |
don't come today, expect me to-
morrow"
There's all the time in the world"
haven't you said that on a great
many occasions? And don't you find
yourself doing your work on basis
of that. ideas Well. there is all the
time in the world-but there are all
the things in the world to do in that
time; the experience of the ages past
can be studied in that time, and
growth toward worthwhile future
can also be managed.
In Minute.
"I'll come in a minute" says Emily
when mother calls. Suppose Emily
grows up, goes into an Office and
takes the "I'll come in a minute" at
titude when the chiefs bell rings and
she is summoned to take dictation?
She frazzles the temper of her su-
perior officer by making him wait,
proves herself an inefficient young
woman and in wasting mere minute
or two she may actually throw away
her chances for promotion.
Who hasn't walked out Of shop
because slow moving clerk sug-
gested indifference to her wants?
Who does not know Of the great for
feits which contracting companies pay
when buildings are not finished on
the day and date promised? Who
hasn't had cake burned to a crisp
while finishing a telephone conversa-
ton and thinking to herself: II must
go in a minute and watch the oven."
The easiest thing in the world to
do is to explain to yourself that
minute doesn't matter; but half
minute gone wrong would dash
trapeze performer to death at the feet
of his audience-half a minute?-half
a second. 1t takes the most perfect
calculation for the swing from one
mass of swaying ropes to another;
properly calculated, the daring,
breath-taking performance is simple
and safe-half second gone wrong
and it means death.
Life is full of calculations as nice.
as exact, as the swing Of the trapeze
performer. Remember that.
The successful man or business
woman arranges his or her day so
that it won't be full of wasted min
utes, half hours gone wrong, broken
appointments. delayed efforts.

"Im q Minute" Is Too Late
If You Want to Get Ahead

There is no more important rule
for success than this simple one: Do
it now.
Any big official in a big company
who discovers an underling postpon-
ing the very slightest bit of business
routine with lazy attitude that it can
be done just as we'll later on, is going
to lose faith in that individual.
Giving Orders.
Giving orders and having them car
ried out are part of the routine of
any efficiently managed organization
from a national army to an Office
whose force consists. of one clerk and
one stenographer.
The only way to get things done
is to do them promptly. Waiting for
something to turn up and save you
the responsibility of making a big
sale or of sharpening a pencil is
likely to walk hand in hand with nat
ural shiftlessness and to cause you al
ways to postpone the things which
need prompt doing.
Find out if you are in the habit of
postponing things till tomorrow and
get in the habit of doing things with
the snap and vigor of the man who
crouches on the line waiting for the
pistol shot which will free him to
start on a hundred-yard dash. A
quick start means victory.
You are not always swinging
from one trapeze to another. with
your life dependent on perfect tim
ing of your movements. But unless
you cultivate in yourself a real
respect for seconds and half seconds,
some day you'll come to a place
where quick decision and instan-
taneous action are needed--and you
won't be able to time your move
ments. Result? Well, think about
the trapeze performer!

Vegetable Gelatine Salads.
4 most convenient way of using UP
different kinds of cooked or raw veg

TO follow is to have as much liquid as

Thus for one cup liquid take out
three tablespoons water and replace
with vinegar. (There are l6 table,

In our quota for September l., I'm

trench foot slippers (250 pairs.)
These slippers should be made Of
velvet, velveteene. corduroy or heavy
cloth. They are then lined with out
ing flannel.
1t is impossible for US to buy the
necessary material and we are asking
the patriotic women of the county
to send us any garments or pieces
they have no use for, to be used in
this way. An old pair Of cloth
trousers, or coat, can be cut into
several parts, as the slippers can be
pieced.
We published an appeal some days

we have less than so slippers made.
Are we to fail in this, as we have
done in nothing else? We have been
proud of our record up to this time.
May it always remain untarnished
If any friend desires to buy a
remnant or piece of new material to
send in, it requires two-thirds of a
yard of 81 inch goods to make one
pair.
Send all material to the Red Cross
