CHRISTIAN SCIENTISTS
COMBINE TWO FUNDS
FOR WAR WORK

Announcement has been made that
the Christian Scientists have combin-
ed two of their war funds--the War
Relief Fund and the Camp Welfare
Fund-in the interest of greater eff
cheney, economy, and more orderly ad-
ministration. What has been known
as the War Relief Fund was started
long before this country entered the
war, according to Mr.. Avery Coonley,
Of the Christian Science Committee on
Publication for the District of Column
bia. From this fund money and sup
plies were disbursed to sufferers in the
warstricken countries of Europe by
workers Of it's various committees.
This fund has now been combined
with that maintained to supply
Christian Science literature to en-
listed men here and abroad, and to
give them spiritual help. advice, and
friendly assistance.

MANY RACES AMONG CON-
STANTINOPLE STUDENTS

The Girls College of Constantinople
maintained by funds given by Ameri-
can colleges has representatives of 16
races in it's student body of 800, &C.
cording to DR.. William W. Peet, who
returned to America recently after
SO years in Turkey. This college is
conducted on an international basis.
Dr. Peet stated, English being the
common language and largely the
language of instruction. He said:
at is interesting to note that pupils
of this institution are brought into
close relationships which usually re-
suit in strong friendships that reach
into mature life. In this way schools
become a valuable medium for unity
ing races and breaking down age-long
enmities. At present the Girls Col
lega is addressing itself to a careful
study of careers open to Turks:
women and to f.; ,'or, toward
obstruction II nu' s.ug Etistry, teach
.lg agriculture horticulture, land
scape gardening sanitation, archi-
lecture and many other branches in
which the infl'eRe., of educated wom-
anhood will BE- strongly exerted to-
ward uplife and the enlightenment Of
the people as / who.a
"The graduates of this college will
go among their people as the advo-
Gates of a higher type of civilization
improvement. They will stimulate a
desire for a better type of dwelling
and a higher standard of city and vii
lage life. The same is true of the col
leges and schools of lower grade,
which are supported by the missions.
The women of Turkey are responding
in a splendid way and with strong
ambition to regenerate their country"

HOW ENGLISH SCHOOL
GIRLS HELP IN THE WAR

English school girls have been ac-
complishing much in war work, i'll
which they have learned to practice
self-sacrifce and to gain efficiency.
Certain schools belonging to the
Girls Patriotic Union in England have
contributed over $4,000 to build and
equip set Of rooms at the Star and
Garter Home at Richmond for sol
diers and sailors totally disabled in
the war" says the Woman's Century,
Of Toronto, Canada THE Star and
Garter Fund, which has been the COM
mon achievement of number OF
schools, has also provided two motor
ambulances and has given largely to
Serbian and other relief funds
II is the custom for the girls to
raise money by saving and self-de-
nial-for example, by girls giving up
sweets and other luxuries and by vol
untary rationing along various lines,
which also makes them intelligent
helpers to the food controllers, not
hindering grumblers."
Girls have earned money by weed
;ng in school and private gardens. by
collecting tin foil and other metals,
and by undertaking many tasks for
small returns which in time have ag-
gregated large amounts. In the town
of Bradford more than 81 pounds of
tin foil were collected in year, the
sale OF which amounted to 1855.

OF
SUBSTITUTES IN BREAD

II is not necessary and perhaps not
altogether desirable that bakers
should limit themselves to the use Of
one wheat flour substitute in baking
Victory bread. Substitutes may be
combined in various ways providing
the required per cent and combina-
tons may be found which will pro-
duce bread of better quality than
that containing one substitute only.
Some mixtures Of rice and corn have
been found TO work better than corn
alone. Potatoes and a cereal substi-
tute make better bread than when
potatoes alone are used as the substi-
tute.

Eligibility Of shakespeare Signature
Docs Not Prove He Did Not

Some years ago, when the Shakes
peare controversy was at Its height,
one Of the contentious Of the party
who declared that the bard not only
had not written the immortal plays
but could not even write his own
name. gave as evidence the existing
signatures that are Of undoubted au-
thenticity.
On the same grounds 1t might be
argued that Richard III was unable
to write. If one decided the matter

POOR MATERIAL FOR WARMTH
Mother Evidently Did Not Entirely
Approve of Apparel Which
Adorned Her Daughter.

They were crossing Washington
street at Meridian, after the theater,
a few nights ago. and it seemed that
mother and daughter were not perfect
ly agreed on the nature of daughters
apparel. At theater time the weather
was balmy, but when they came out
1t had been raining and though there
was no shower at the moment there
was much wind, and daughters filmy
white silk skirt was blowing about in
dangerous fashion as she stepped off
the curb. She stopped repeatedly and
pulled the skirt down, then fairly ran
to the shelter of the Merchants Bank
building, leaving mother, who was a
bit plump, to roll along as best she
could.
"Why didn't you wait for me-" de-
manded mother on reaching the girl
"Wellr' was the retort, my ears
are not cold. l wasn't going to poke
along there and let my skirt get up
around my ears, was ~

pressing laundry bills, to say nothing

he appeared at the office today scant
twelve hours following the ceremony,
he asserted with conviction:
