that could be anticipated from an in
vestment of one hundred million dol
lars. Morris people should do their
share"
Supt Utne has the following to
say in regard to Thrift Day: Zone
of the most desirable habits that
person can form is the habit of
thrift, and this habit, if it is to be
acquired at all, must be acquired
during the days of childhood and
youth. A man who has never
brushed his teeth doesn't begin to do
so after he has passed his thirtieth
birthday. A boy who never tips his
hat when he meets lady will not
grow up into a model of politeness.
Habits of cleanliness, habits of court
esq, habits of thrift-all are formed
during the plastic days of early life.
1t is therefore of primary Importance
that parents and teachers who have
charge of the training of our boys
and girls should cultivate in them
the habit of saving their pennies.
nickles and dimes. These should be
invested in savings account, or bet
ter still, in government thrift stamps
and war savings certificates. This
will mean not only the formation of
the habit of thrift but also the teach
ing of loyalty and patriotism, for
our country needs the whole-hearted
support of all it's people, young and
old, rich and poor, at this time

MORRIS POST OFFICE
REPORTS BIG BUSINESS
Many Added Duties Made Necessary
by War Being Well Taken Care
Of

Postmaster Finnegan of the Nor
ris Post Office has good report to
make concerning the amount of
business done here during the year
1917. The Morris Office is now the
central office of the county and all
of the other post Offices in the county
have to get their supplies and make
their reports here.
There were 1000 money orders
issued at the local post office dur
ing 1917 and the sum of $4,000 was
paid for orders cashed here.
Besides the regular business at the
post Office, there has been many ad-
ded duties made necessary by the
war. The expenses of the office have
not increased and every employee is
cheerfully accepting the added bur
dens without asking any additional
pay.
Fifteen young men, have enlisted at
the post Office here within the last
two months. Thirty young people
have taken civil service examina-
tions for war positions during the
year.
The sale of War Savings Stamps
has been conducted thru the post
office and the first months sale
amounted to about $500. During
the short time the stamps have been
on sale nearly $1,000 worth of stamps
have been sold. 1t is planned to have
sales stations in the city, one for
every 100 people, and these will be
established soon.

C. F. Kirk has received word that
his son, Charles, who was located at
Camp Cody, is very sick and had to
be removed to a hospital outside of
the camp. 1t is very likely that he
will come home as soon as he is able
to travel to recuperate.

STUDENTS CLUB HOLDS
CONSERVATION MEETING
Many Matters Of Importance Were
Taken Up and Discussed by the
Ladies

A most interesting meeting of the
Students Club was held Monday at
the home of Mrs. F. A. Stever, with
Mrs. Stone assisting. The business
part of the program was brief and
the subject of Food Conservation was
taken up with Mrs. Grove as leader.
The full conservation order was dis
cussed and the reasons leading up to
the closing of certain classes OF bust
ness and exemption of others was
mentioned.
Different members of the club
told of ways to substitute the dark
fours for white flour and some ex-
cellent recipes, where substitutes for
sugar, fats and flour could be used.
were urged. The use of cooking
oils in place of animal fats was al
SO urged.
A number of recipes sent out by
the Agricultural Department of
Cornell University of New York were
given by Mrs. Hancock to be tried
by the club members and their
friends. AS there were raised in the
United States this year eighty mill
lion more bushels of potatoes over
last years crop it was urged that the
people use more than the usual
amount for the table and in places
where they can be used in cooking
as a means of economizing on white
flour.
The attention of the assembly was
closely held by the reading by Mrs.
Halgren of "De Maupassant' S"
short story, "The Necklace" A So
cial hour followed when an appropri-
ate lunch was served by the hos
tesses.
Below are given three of the re-
cipes which Mrs. Hancock recon-
mended each of which have been
tried out and found to be good.
More of these recipes will be publish
ed next week:

Earthquake Statistics.

II has been calculated that there oc-
III about 10000 earthquakes within a
year, or $3.50 hours, hence, that there
are on the average three and one-half
earthquakes In an hour. Fortunately,
not all earthquakes are of a violent ma
ture, like that of A. d. 526, that killed
from 10000 to 100000 persons In the
region of the Mediterranean, or that
Of 1893. to which 10000 persons fell
victims in Sicily, OF of Lisbon in 1855.
and those that devastated Chile, Peru
and Japan. OF great frequency are
the minor earthquakes. In fact, Our
so-called firm earth can be said to be
in a state Of perpetual agitation. Our
senses do not perceive the slight dis
~turbances, but the seismograph, a very
delicate and ingenious apparatus de-
vised to keep track Of them, furnishes
all the information denied to us by our
natural insensibility. They often fur
nish us too much of 1t In the excess
OF their zeal. recording sometimes as
seismic phenomena vibrations that
later proved to have been due to the
ringing Of church bells.
