BACK With HER BOYS
AE'-'7'
joyful Welcome Given Mrs. Har.
ing at the Front.
"Godmother of the Polish Army"
Greeted With Cheers by Off
GERS and Men.

ParlS.-A woman alighted from the
train at what remains of a little rail-
road station very close to the front.
Her hair was trifle gray but her
cheeks were pink, and she seemed to
be very happy to be arriving in that
place.
Very soon the reason became APP
parent. A military policeman was on
duty in the station. He stared and
gave shout, "AIrs. Haring."
Il got here at last" she said as
she shook hands-a handshake such
as is exchanged between friends long
separated.
YOU'RE going to be with us?"
"As long as they let me-"
Mrs. Haring went out and up the
street, searching for the daily shift
ing headquarters of the Y. NJ c. A
for the war was moving with great
rapidly since the new offensive be-
gan.
An automobile containing a cap
tain and three lieutenants stopped
with a screaming of the brakes.
Young men boiled out of the car to
surround Mrs. Haring as if she were
the belle of the season.
Another car stopped. More off
GERS. Around the edge privates lined
up waiting their chance. From that
moment hers was triumphal prog
ress up the street. 1t seemed as if
the whole American army wanted to
follow her.
1t was a happy party, laughing,
handshaking, cOngratulating party
that surrounded the little Y. M. C. A.
woman. She was back, back with
the troops she had served and left
for a time. They were doing their
best to show her how glad they were
to see her and were succeeding Won
derfllly.
The record of Mrs. Augusta Haring
of New York city is enviable. She
is a musician. It was she who, with
Miss Myrtle Stinson of Greenfield, O..
organized the Y. M. c. A. work in
the new Polish army most of which
was recruited in the United States.
For four months she worked among
these men-this army which will be
without a country until the war is
over and victory comes to the allies.
Her prOudest moment was when the
commander of the Poles, in public
manner, bestowed on her the title
of Godmothcr of the Polish Army.

ADULTERATED OLIVE OIL
Federal Food Inspectors Instructed to
Inspect Interstate Shipments

/ Washington, D. Good inspectors
have been instructed by tn officials in
charge Of the Crforc~ naent Of Federal
Food and Drugs Act to inspect inter
state shipments Of olive oil, in order
to prevent the sale in interstate COM
nerce of cheaper vegetable oil under
the name of olive oil. Very little olive
oil is now being imported, say the Off
cials, and the domestic olive oil is not
sufficient TO supply the demand. The
ahnorroa'ly high price of genuine olive
y OIL has tempted INSCRIPTIONS dealers
to mix cheaper vegetable oil with a
little genuine olive oil and sell the
mixture labeled IS olive oil. Cotton=
seed oil, corn oil. and soy-bean o.! are
the principal substitutes used Sow
eral seizures have been made and
number of prosecutions are now pend
/ ing in the Federal courts as the result
of finding in interstate commerce pro-

analysis were found to consist largely

IS food when properly Tabled, say the
officials. Their sale as olive oil, how
ever, is q fraud and their shipment
in interstate or foreign commerce la
beled as olive oil is 2 violation of the
Federal Food and Drugs Act. The
sale Of cottonseed, corn, or soy-bean
oils undnr the name of olive oil is also

teration.
