WE SHALL NOT sleep

"In Flanders fields
the poppies blow
Between the Crosses,
row on row,
That mark our place;
and In tho sky
The larks still bravely
singing fly,
Scarce heard amidst
the guns below
We are tho dead,
Short days, ago we lived,
felt dawn,
saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved.
and now we lie
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel
with the foe,
To you from falling hands
we throw the Torch
be yours to hold It high;
If~ye break faith
with us who die,
We shall not sleep,
though peoples grow
In Flanders fields"

NO U-BOATS WITHIN
.1,OOOM|LES OF U. S.
COAST, SAYS NAVY

There is not a German submarine
within 1000 miles OF the American
coast.
This belief was expressed by Navy
officials today after a thorough in
vestigation OF scores OF rumors that
U-boats had been sighted and reports
that S. o. S. calls had been picked
up by coastwise steamers.
1t also became known that the
Navy Department is not officially
aware of the presence OF an enemy
raider in American waters. Rumors
! that a raider was of the Atlantic
coast have been brought. to the at
tention OF the department from many
quarters. but in no instance have Of
ficialS been able to verify them. As
for the submarine or submarines
that conducted thte raids on this
side OF the Atlantic. they are be
lieved to be we'll on their way to
their home base. The department, IL
was said today, has no confirmed re
port OF the sighting OF submarine
in more than a week.
The recent picking up OF s. o. s.
messages was easily accounted for.
During the past few nights atmos-
pheric conditions have been such that
radio messages would carry over a
far greater distance than ordinarily.
and il is believed that these distress
signals came from vessels that were
being attacked on the other side OF
the Atlantic. One naval officer told
today OF having picked up messages
from Arlington while in the Bay Of
Biscay. and from Panama while just
on the coast of Ireland.

DRYING VEGETABLES
is CHEAP PROCESS

Dehydration, or drying OF fruits
and vegetables, urged now by the
United States Government as a food
saving measure, costs but about 4
cent a pound.
The process reduces the products
treated to from one-seventh to
One-fifteenth original size, and
leaves a practically non-perishable
food, affected by neither heat
nor extreme cold. II requires no
special container or sealing. Plain
paper bags to. protect against dust
and insects are the best and cheapest
containers.
Northumberland the water
to, the eSetable-requires from
twenty minItes to two hours: and
the Reconstructed product has lost
neither it's original flavor nor its
color.
