A Citizens Committee With
Great Possibilities
By EARL GOODWIN
win Be Formed At the District Bu1AE Tonsh and Should
Be the Means Of Advancing Ultimate Consumer

There has been complaint that the ultimate
has had no direct representation in any OF the various
offices of administration for food and fuel
Whether this complaint is justified not there can be
NO justification for any such statement concerning the
District Food Administration the people of the city take
lively interest in the citizens association meeting at the
District Building tonight.
Representatives Of every association have been asked
to meet Food Administrator Wilson in the board Of
the District Building to discuss the proposal to establish
citizens food committee
The idea originated with the Park View Citizens Asso
citation carried out properly the proposed committee
will have executive officer who will be the peoples ad
vocate with the food administrator attending strictly to the
kicks of the ultimate and paying heed only to the
affairs of the householder.
There will be another for such a committee.
1t is proposed that it meet twice month at the Dis
trct Building with the officials of the District government
and In this way insure heartohear interchange of ideas
between the governing body and the governed people
The health department the superintendent of weights
and measures the engineer Offices and other subdivisions
of the District government should thus be able get in
touch with the PEOPLE of the city which is something
that has been woeully lacking in certain quarters
In this VOTELESS city it is high time that the tax
payers should form just such committee is proposed
believe will not only aid the food administration in its
difficult task but that it will act with considerable benefit
for the increase of community spirit.
There is nothing like getting together" There is
not enough of it in Washington d. c. probably because
have nothing say about officials who they shall be-
what they shall do. Luckily have been blessed with
splendid at the District Building but it wouldn't hurt
bit to have complete interchange of thought and ideas
with them and to that end trust that the committee be
formed tonight will work steadfasty and with high purpose

Everybody Can Help At This
Just Say, "You Needn't Wrap It."

"Save every scrap of paper" That is the message of
the War Industry Board to every home keeper every shop
per, every tradesman in the United States.
The Government wants to 20 900 900 paper bags
day. wants to take all the materials and all the labor
that goes into the manufacture the handling the trans
poraon Of those bags and throw it at the heads Of the
German troops who stand between and the streets

You probably do know that sulphur is used in the
making of the paper bags which you have been careleSsy
throwing away.
You also probably do not know that sulphur is abso
lutey necessary to the making of munitions and parc
ulary for the manufacture of the poisonous gases with
which General Pershing boys putting so many Ger
mans out of business
Every piece of paper contains certain amount of sui
phur and all the sulphur that is used in this country for
whatever purpose from two sulphur minesone in
Texas and in Louisiana both of which have been
Wandered by the Government because it needs them FOR
WAR WORK.
a. The paper industry is tremendous consumer of fuel
Every bag the saving of fraction of
pound of coal which used in the making Of it, and every
and much transportation energy that can be devoted
to the finishing of the big job we have on hand
It is up to you Mrs Housekeeper and you Miss Shop
Per, to help.
IN Get down the old market basket and dust it off,
Hunt up the old Garry alp (they are still stylish in
Boston style influences you) and mend any broken places
in it.
- Put them both where you will be sure to take them
when you start shopping tomorrow and when you get to
market don't have anything wrapped unless is absolutely
necessary for sanitary reasons.

patriotism than market basket filled with unwrapped

merely hateful drudgery.
know scores of homes where
the husband and wife each start
out for their days work with posi-
tive gayety, like true comrades,
shoulder to shoulder, and at night
return with more to tell each
other than there is ever time for.
Does it work? OF course it does.
Not only with the wife, but with
the husband. In fact, it is espe-
cially educative where the husband
is concerned. And you may Be
sure that a wife who preserves
her independence is no less likely
to keep her husbands love than
the girl who is a little too eager TO
make it plain 10 her acquaintance
that she is entirely supported by
a husband and is proud Of the idle
hours that every day affords her.
Mothers Duties First.
Somebody will say that q home
isn't a home without babies and
that a mother is obliged to stay
there. That her children demand
her, if her husband doesn't. And
to a certain degree, this is true.
In q home where q baby is expect
ed, or where there is q baby Of
nursing age, a mother must place
her mothers duty above every
thing else in life. This doesn't
mean that she need be an utterly
idle parasite, merely that she
must place the baby's interest
first.
But this is after all q brief Pc
riod. For to my mind it isn't al
ways necessary that q mother
take all the care of her baby after
it is a year old. But that is .
question that every mother must
decide for herself and that ! shah
discuss at length in another ar
ticle.
Think your own life out for
yourself. Don't be influenced too
much by any one persons advice.
Remember that it's every wom-
ans right to be q wife and mother
but that there's no reason in the
world why she can't Be . wage

special solution. Nobody could be
wise enough to give advice which
would apply to all cases. But
there are some general consider
atoms that all girls will do well to
remember when they find that
their lives have reached turning
point, that there is a decision to
be made.
A Very Pleasant Feeling.
First, don't let any job come to
seem to you more important than
it really is. You may have a re-
markable talent for bookkeeping
as well as for order and system
and neatness generally. 1t is quite
likely that all your superiors in
the office have assured you OF
this and that you have come TO
feel pretty certain that the work

CONTINUED from Column o.
Of the office couldn't get on with
out you.
This is a very pleasant feeling
and there is something almost in
toxicating about it, too. You know
yourself how it often leads you to
work overtime and sometimes
even give I'D your Saturday aft
ernoons. Then it may be that
during your childhood you shared
a sordid family struggle with
poverty and that you got bitterly
tired of disorder and overwrought
nerves and of there never being
quite enough Of anything to go
around. And the order and indie
pendence that you have achieved
are so precious that l know you
are often a little cynical about
mere sentiment. -.
All this is quite natural. And
one admires the girl who respects
herself and likes her job and ex-
cells in it. Only-don't let it lead
YOU to despise love and lovers.
Don't be afraid to let yourself love
the man who has chosen you and
needs YOU. All the great real
ties of life are within your reach.
Perhaps you could never love this
particular man, in which case you
will have to let him 60. But lis
ten to your own heart and let that
decide. And have the courage
and womanliness to accept its de-
cision.
The Second Pay Envelope.
Now YOU have all along taken
it for granted, perhaps, that you
couldn't work after marriage.
But don't let any old-fashioned
counselor. even your fisnce him
self, persuade you that this is ne
cessarily true. A husbands dig
nifty isn't in the least impaired If
the wife chooses to contribute the
contents of a second pay envelope
to the family purse.
If she has a talent for book
keeping and that dread Of the
dishpan ! have referred to, why
not continue with the bookkeep-
ing, married or not? Her salary
will make it easily possible for
her to nay some one else to de the
homework that she is obliged 10
leave undone, and the family sit
ting room at night will be . far

and will, and somebody will en-

ing in a strong soap solution and dry
ing in good sunshine will probably re-
move the worst stains that simple rub
bling with soap will not remove. A
little turpentine or kerosene rubbed or
the spots before boiling will help to
soften the fat. The best method to use
in dealing with q fresh grease stain is
to use soap and cold water on it; the
hot water fixes the fat in the fiber of
the linen and makes q most difficult
stain to remove.
Fruit stains of various kinds of long
standing may be removed by sulphur
fumes if the use of peroxide and sum
light fail to be effective. The perox-
ide which we buy commercially is not
so strong that it needs to be washed
out, but if fresh from the chemical
laboratory it should be carefully
washed and rinsed out or it rotS the
fiber of the cloth. The same is true
of sulphur fumes. Place a little sui
phur in a dish, light it, W. with a
funnel and place the spot over the
small end of the funnel where the
fumes will strike it, changing as often
as the spot fades, to another one. Then
carefully wash the garment or linen,
to remove the sulphur.
Ink stains, If fresh and on white
cloth, are best put to soak in sour
milk, repeating the process until the
stain is gone.
Acid stains should be sponged care
fully with ammonia in water, n ta-
blespoonful to six of cold water.
Alkali stains are treated with an
acid solution, lemon juice or vinegar.
Fresh stains are treated with an acid
solution, lemon juice or vinegar.
Fresh fruit stains, like those from
berries, may be removed by pouring
boiling water from a height through
.he cloth stretched over a bowl; then
wash as usual.
Turpentine will dissolve paint. APP

smelled it.
