NO ACCOUNTING FOR TASTE.

What do the boys sing in the trench |es?
 Especially, what do they sing after a day of battle?
 By rights they should sing the "Star Spangled Banner" or "God Save the King" or "The Marseillaise." The taste and sentiments of some may run to "Yankee Doodle" and "DiXie."
 But American troopers, after then recent fighting in the trenches, when they had some disagreeable experien- ces with German raiders; when they got their first taste of gore saw the first rewards of their handwork in the form of mangled bodies
 The song they sang that night was "This is the End of a Perfect Day."

Wasting Time.

If time be of all things the most pre- fious, wasting time must be, as Poor Richard says. the greatest prudisality since, as he elsewhere tells us. lost time is never found again. and what we call time enough always proves little enough. Let us, then, be up and doing. and doing to the purpose: sc by diligence shall we do more with less pcrpeXity. Sloth makes all things diff fcult but industry all easy; and he that riscth late must trot all day, and shall scarce overtal>e his business at night while laziness travels so slowly that poverty soon overtakes hila. Drive thy business, let not that drive thee: and early to bed and carly to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.-Beniamin Franklin.

THRIFT AND BUSINESS.

It is evident that many of us have a jay or wrong conception of the de- veolpment of thrift as an aid to gov ernment.
 We think, perhaps that ten dollars saved means that we can invest that ten dollars in government bonds and thus aid our country ill paying for the war.
 So far as this goes, it is right; but there is as important fact back of that-one that is generally overlooked It is this:
 Whenever ten dollars are saved it means that to the extent of that sum the person saving the money has set labor free from private purposes.
 In other words, it is the aim of the government to encourage thrift, and the purchase of government bonds, so that the labor heretofore utilized in making articles purchased by the mon- cy will be free to work for the govern ment or in such industries as arc help ing the government.
 That's the situation in nutshell. The thrift campaign of the govern ment is not merely to get people to save money, but also to free the labor that would be employed in making the things-the so-called "non- essentials that the money spent would purch- ase.
 Conditions being what they are, there is no other way out of the dil- emma. It is useless for business to chaff under the collar. Business men who have been fearing the result of these methods methods needed for wartime efficiency-have begun to realize that in the long run they will not be injured, as the money that is guided from the ordinary chan nels of trade will be put into other channels-into the maws of indus tries that employ hundreds of thou sands of workers, directly or indirect. ly, whose prosperity will affect othe, hundreds of thousands, if not millions

YOU ARE WARNED
OF A COAL SHORTAGE

W
In spite of the fact that the ma
jority of the consumers have re-
sponded Loyalty to the appeal to
store coal early there are yet a
number of communities in the state
where sufficient reserve stocks have
not been built up--due in some ca
SEES to the inability to secure coal.
The Fuel Administration has pre-
pared a number of suggestions,
which if followed will help the sit
uation greatly. They are:
Start furnace and kitchen-range
fires as late as possible. Forget the
first few cool Fall days. Put up
with a little discomfort and remem-
Der what the boys ''over there"
daily face.
Raise window curtains during
the day to admit sunlight for that
is free heat. Dispense with awnings
as they shut out the sun.
Weatherstrip. all doors and win
dows and put asbestos around all
furnaces, boilers and cellar pipes
used for heating purposes.
10 ! ~
Reduce the home temperature to
I67 degrees. Do not wait until mer-
curry shows "a degrees before clos
ing the drafts.
Bedrooms where windows are
opened for the night or otherwise
should be shut off from heat. Use
blankets and feel better in the
morning.
Wear heavier clothing. This ma
terially saves body heat.
Thoroughly clean SCOT from pipes
and boilers and do not mind doing
a little work in the cellar seeing
that window panes are tight and
weatherstripped like the other
parts Of the house.
Burn oil, wood, coke and bitumi-
nous coal when possible, use gas for
cooking and heating. Gas lighting
at night aids in heating the home,
stores and buildings where used.
Use heavy draperies on doors and
windows for interior home decorat-
ing. This aids in outstanding in.
terror heat supply.
Remember you are not fighting
IN a trench exposed to all kinds of
weather! Your men are and have
become hardened by contact with
the back to nature idea. They are
also healthier and more robust.
The government draft estimate
for Audubon County, prior to draft
date was 1871 while the actual
number listed was 1852.

SUGAR CONSERVATION
IN THE home


Continued from last week.
Here is where the cook can save
more sugar. By using the combina-
tons of sugar and other sweeteners.
as per following tables:

The resulting product contains in
total solids the equivalent Of one
pound Of sugar. This is for all prac-
teal purposes using 4 times as
much of the other sweeteners by
weight as the weight of the sugar
replaced. For example, in line B, 4
4 OF. Of sugar are replaced by 5 OF.
of corn sirup, which is II times 4
OF. However, if the housekeeper
substitutes weight for weight, that
is IN place of 4 OF. of sugar uses

is satisfactory, It is slightly less

is used. e
