BOOK LORE
Public Right In Hating Idler More
That PrOfiteer

The basic principle on which we
are operating necessitates profteers,
SAYS the editor of the Worlds Work.
He reasons thus: We are going TO
make up in money what we lacked
in foresight and preparation. The
line of least resistance in trying TO
stimulate labor is higher wages. In
spite of high costs the labor in war
industries is better of than in peace
times. Laborers skilled and unskill-
ed are. as a class, profiteers. They
are profiting by the war. But the pub
lie sense has diagnosed the situation
correctly. X attaches its odium on
labor that loafs, not on that which
profiteers The public enemy is not
the munition worker who works stead
lily at unusual wages and makes a
profit out of the war, but the laborer
whose easy money induces him TO loaf
part of the time or TO shift from job
to job or the labor leader who uses
the necessities of his country as an
opportunity TO incite strikes.

HUMAN SIDE OF THE WAR.

What fine human stories are pour
ing in from the battlefront these
daysl
There is the story. for instance. of
the American who, after a victorious
charge, was bringing in a squad of
prisoners when he discovered his own
father among them. 1t happened that
the father. after living for some time
in the United States, had returned TO
Germany several years ago. and when
the war began had been forced into
the army
And what was the first thing that
young German-Ameriean did when he
made the discovery? Read his father
an instructive lecture right then and
there. on the folly and wickedness of
being a Germanl
With that duty off his chest, the lad
threw an arm over the old mans
shoulder and invited him to share the
hospitality Of the American army,
promising him the best in the house"
He got It, too.
In such incidents. more than in the
official reports and the battle-reviews
of military experts. we come to under
stand the war An eye for human in
terest" and the use of a little imagi-
nation make il all real and vital.

ice co-operates with the Government in
food conservation
The idea offers possibilities Of de-
velopment even in small communities.
There is almost always woman who
would like TO earn money cooking If
she knew how to get at it. There are
always women who can put in their
time 10 much better advantage at
other things than cooking. The deliv-
cry Of cooked food in vacuum holders
from the one 10 the other would seem
to solve many home problems, at the

CnnkEn MEALS DELIVERED.

There have been many experiments
in the past with cooperative kitchens
and maid service. a few of which have
succeeded. most of which have failed.
Today there exists in New York one
successful cooking station which bids
fair to set the example for many.
The institution is called The Ameri-
can Cooked Food Service" and its
president is Miss Jessie Bancroft. 1t
is located on the upper West Side Of
New York which seemed the most
promising field for a trial because of
SITS modest hons. and its numbers of
professional women who are trying to
keep their homes while working out

Next morning. when the empty CON

day is turned in. Low prices are the
rule, because the Food Service has cal
culated everything to a fine point,
wastes nothing-even TO corning its
own beef and making its own soap
and owns no breakable dishes.
The fundamental ami Of the Service,
as stated by its president, was TO
keep homes together during the great
draft Of women into industry for the
war, and to release women for Red
Cross and other activities. The Serv

REGULATIONS ON
MIGRATORY BIRDS

The Conservation Commission is in
receipt of the new regulations gov
ering the taking of migratory birds
under the treaty which was entered
into between Great Britain, Canada
and the United States. President Will
son has signed these regulations and
the same have become effective from
July 81 of this year.
The important changes which effect
Maryland as this Office interprets the
new regulations are as follows:
l. No wild fowl shall be shot with
gun larger than a 10-gauge gun.
>. 1t absolutely prohibits the sale
at all times of wild fowl, which in
cludes ducks.
5. 1t absolutely prohibits at all
times the killing of reedbirds.
f. 1t has prescribed an open sea-
son for doves, beginning September
/. whereas the State of Maryland per-
mits doves to be shot from the 18th
day of August.
3, 1t has placed a bag limit of %
ducks of all kinds per day.
The balance of the regulations are
practically the same as were pro-
mulgated under the other federal
statute regulating the taking of mi
gratory birds.
These changes are very important.
as the Maryland laws were published
previous to the issuing of these regu-
lations, and. of course. these changes
are not included in the publication of
the game laws issued by the Conser-
walton Commission.

Just Because He Couldn't Sell

Little Johnnie Adams, lives on
Capitol hill and sells newspapers
to help his mother pay the wa. tax.
He is just five years old and hasn't
experienced vcrv many grand and
glorious times but yesterday was
the biggest day in his lie.
Johnny was selling more papers
than usual yesterday but he over
stocked himself and along about ]
o'clock at night when he should
have had his feet under mothers
table, he still had three papers left.
He tried bravely to sell his papers
despite the vacant feeling III the
mid-section that is particularly
noticeable to a youngster Of iiSe.
In the course Of his quest for GUS
toners he entered the cafe of the
Lee Huckins nd was accosted by
a cross-looking old gentleman.

he was selling papers and offered
the old gentleman one,
Were you ever at one OF my
newsboys dinners" the man asked.
"No, mama would never let me
go" Johnnie answered.
We'll, well, YOU must be hungry
now If YOU haven't had supper"
And Johnny Was Stuffed.
Johnnie did not deny that he was
hungry and the man ordered
waiter to draw a chair for Young
Masta Adams. Then he ordered
turkey for him and cranberry
sauce and pie and most everything
that little boy would like to eat
and while the crowded cafe looked
on in wondcrmcnt stuffed the little
fellow till he could cat no more,
all the while carrying on con-
