.ar Harrassed In Vienna.
Austria's offensive against italy ap.
parently has resolved itself into de-
fensive movement both in the noun.
tains and along the Piave. While
facing allied counter attacks on the
| fighting front the Austrian govern.
ment is being harrassed In Vienna and
elsewhere by popular outbreaks caus'
ed by food conditions. VT
Spurred on by their successful re-.
sistance, Italian troops are making re-
peated attacks against the enemy po.
sitions west of the fiave and have
gained some ground. In the noun.
tains around Asiago, Franc0-Italian
troops have re0ccupied important po'
sitions. Wednesday the bag of Aus.

On Defensive. il ~
Vienna, in its official statement, ad.
mits that its troops are on the defens-
i've and is content to report that all
Italian attacks, especially along the
Piave, have been repulsed. The fight
ing is now in its's seventh day and
the Austrians west Of the Piave prob
ably are in q more precariOus position
than at any time since last Saturday.
Around Montello, on the northern
end of the Piave line, the Austrians
have been driven back slightly. Their
efforts to advance near ZensOn, near
the center of the line, have been
checked with severe losses. At San
Dona di Piave and on the Fossetta
canal the Italians have driven the On.

Heavy Rains Reported.
Heavy rains are reported In the
mountains and these may add to the
torrent in the Piave which already has
washed away many bridges. With the
flooded river behind the enemy the
Italian counter attacks are gaining In
strength in an effort to wipe out or
capture the troops which have crossed
the Piave and have been unable to ad'
vance into the Venetian plain.
Riots in Vienna.
Riots are reported in suburbs OF
Vienna and 100000 workmen in i'm.
portant war manufactures there are
on strike. The situation apparently
is growing beyond control of the civil
authorities and martial law in the Aus
trian capital is not unlikely. The
workmen continue to demand more
bread and the agitation is spreading.
Advices received in neutral countries
are to the effect that the present
trouble is the most serious the Aus
trian government has faced and Is
causing grave apprehension through.

unable to help because it is faced with
q serious food situation itself.

TEUT CHURCH
ASSAILS WAR

Morals in War Time Come in for
Special Condemnation in
Quarterly Review

Amsterdam, June 21.-The German
quarterly church review, the first sec
ton of which is. published by the
Protestant kruez Zeitung of Berlin
seems likely to make unpleasantHread-
ing for Emperor William, .inlXiew {, Of
his frequent utterances In n1Trais> Of
the rpiety and high morality OF the
German people. The review declares
that the task of the church has be-
come immeasurably harder because
of the utter lack of discipline and re-
ligious feeling among the people Our
youth, with their easily gotten money
in their pockets, swollen with sinful
pride," it continues, "are entirely con-
temptous of restrain and confluence.
Confusion reigns In numberless Of the
administrative government departs
ments as to what is right and wrong:
The highest law seems to be profiteer-
ing and amusement" .,...... ..,s,
!. Lamenting the laxity Of present day
German morals, the review gravely
condemns the proposal emanating
from Cologne to legalize bigamy which
proposition the document takes quite
seriously. This attitude is interesting
because 1t is recalled that the pro-
posals at the time it was made was
represented by eminent Germans as O
mere freak unworthy Of serious
notice. -.
The review which throughout is
couched in the most pessimtstic tone,
expresses the fear Of irreparable dam
age to the existing evangelistic state
church unless 1t succeeds in OvercOm-
ing the Indifference of the people to
religion.
Londan, June .21.-Vienna news
papers are quoting a socialist party
mOnifesto which declares that workers
and small office holders In Austria

dispatch from Amsterdam today.
In many Austrian towns, the mani
,festo declares, these classes are
threatened with absolute famine sim

Bohemian capitol, and towns In Ca

Human Development.

Human development is a matter of
growth. It comes from within out.
There's no pleasure In being shown
your weakness unless you mean to
profit by their exposure. You can't
show the weak spots to everybody,
notes a writer. Small people get an
gered at the suggestion that they
might not be up to all they should be.
So you might as well let them nurse
their self-opinion and get busy on
yourself. You will work, and dig, and
polish, and often will not be able to
e any progress made. That's dis
couraging. but you mustn't stop. You
must just renew your efforts at work
Ing, digging and polishing. II you are
willing to pay the price you can rise
to almost any height. And the best of
1t is you know how You have risen
and the very process has made you
more than q master for anything that
may turn up.

Municipal Forests Being
Established in MARYLAND

In Maryland municipal forests are
being established with professional aid
from the state. In other eastern states,
towns and cities are acquiring small
municipal forests to serve for water
shed protection or for recreation. The
times seems fast approaching, notes a
writer, when cities and counties as
well as states and the federal govern
ment will very generally establish pub
lie forests for the growing Of timber
and for providing employment and uti-
lizing land unfit for agriculture.
Forestry involves SO long a time in
maturing the crop that, while reason
ably profitable, private funds or indi-
vlduals are not often attracted. For
estry seems destined to remain largely
a governmental institution, although
under special conditions and in certain
sections Of the country private funds
are being probably employed in grow
ing timber.

Here are some household "triles"
that will help feed the soldiers in
France and the starving people Of the

can households wastes but one slice Of
bread daily 1t means q waste. Of A.
100000 ounces Of hour, - $4,000
pounds; or enough flour to make more
than 100000 one-pound loaves daily.
AS a yearly average this means the
yield from 100000 acres, figuring the
average yield at 14.9 bushels.
If everyone of these families wastes
just a ~half-cupful Of milk, sweet or
sour, daily, it means 2,5OO,OOO quarts
daily or the yearly product Of 100000
cows.
II every family wastes one-fourth Of
an ounce Of butter daily, it means 312,-
500 pounds a day or the yearly milk
product of more than 100000 cows.
II every family wastes an ounce of
edible meat, whether it is lean, mixed
fat or suet, it wastes 1,25O,OOO pounds

Fresh Air in Both Home .
and Hospital important
Says a Health Official

Fresh air is the environment In
which man developed to his present
state Of perfection. Now that u news
papers reach to every nook and corner
Of the world, bearing the message,
most men and women appreciate the
part pure air plays In sustaining
health, writes Samuel q. Dixon, M. D.,
IL. D., D. &c., commissioner of health.
Owing to the various demands Of CIV
ilization we find it hard to be where
we can best earn a livelihood and at
the same time dwell in al atmosphere
sufficiently pure to maintain perfect
health. Not only the medical profess
sion, but now the general public, ap-
preciates that in the cure Of tubercu-
losis Of the lungs fresh air is essential,
and, therefore, all our best hospitals
are built and managed 81 that the pa
tients may receive the maximum Of
fresh air.
Purity Of air is necessary for the
sick. This is often lost sight Of by
patients and those to whose care they
are intrusted. During convalescence
Of patients from acute diseases in cold
weather, we find in homes and hospi-
tails where there are the greatest lux
uries that those in attendance on the
sick often neglect maintaining the reg
ulation temperature. Physicians, in
ternes and nurses, who have to be up
and down at all times Of the day and
night, and often fail to dress them
selves sufficiently for protection
against the cold air that the patient in
bed should receive If those in charge
are to get the best results. They
should measure. the temperature Of the
room by a thermometer and not by
their own feelings.

Mathematics a Powerful
Factor in Our Material
and Economic Progress

Whatever may be said Of mathe-
mates as a "whetstone Of the wits" or
as a mental discipline, the fact remains
that the chief vitalizing factor Of the
subject is found in it's practical uses.
Historically speaking, observes s. l..
Macdonald of the Colorado Agricul-
tural college, much Of our advanced
mathematics, as we'll as most Of our
elementary mathematics, sprang as a
necessity out of very practical cOndi-
lions.
It has been remarked that imam
pleasures and c~onQuers," and indus
hially speaking we may safely affirm
that mans conquest depends very
largely upon his ability to measure
accurately. This task Of measurement
may be a problem in arithmetic, as the
measurement of an excavation in
terms Of cubic yards or human hands
or horse power or money, or the
measurement may involve a more ad-
vanced knowledge, as the measure
ment Of the length of an elliptical
curve, or Of a cable swinging freely
between two supports, Brooklyn bridge
for example. And let it be emphasized
that this measurement is not complete
untf1' It is expressed in terms of known
units that would be useful in a build
er's bid or contract.
So mathematics. more than we real
lie, is q powerful factor In ma
terial and economic progress.

Bread Made From Cow Peas
Is Both Novel and Nutritious

Cowpea bread, made from fresh green cowpeas, is still a nov
city to many. This bread is not only wholesome and nutritious,
but it also has q very agreeable flavor and a delicate green color
which permits its use for dainty sandwiches when prepared with a
filling of soft white cheese OF a lettuce leaf and a bit of mayonnaise.
Like other legumes the cowpea furnishes considerable protein,
60 essential in our diet. It also contains valuable mineral salts
which are also Of benefit to the human system.
Used in bread the cowpea serves as a wheat -four substitute,
hence helps to conserve wheat. Moreover, in districts where these
peas are grown, this should prove an economical kind of bread.
Boil the cowpeas in the pods from one to two hours. When
sufficiently cooled, shell them and put the peas through q meat
grinder or vegetable press. For each loaf Of bread take one cupful
mashed cowpeas, one teaspoonful salt, one tablespoonful sugar, and
mix thoroughly. For every loaf allow one-fourth cake yeast and
~two-thirds cupful lukewarm water Tor o~ne-eighth cupful liquid
yeast and about one-half cupful water). Mix yeast and water and
add to the cowpeas. Blend with this one cupful of sifted flour,
cover and let rise until quite light. Work in additional -four, about
~ cupfuls per loaf, until Of the proper consistency. Knead until
smooth, cover and allow to rise again. When light, mold; place
in creased pans; let rise until two or two and one-half times is
bulk bake fifty to sixty minutes in a moderate oven.
