Register Next Month
LOCAL POSTMASTER WILL HAVE CHARGE
OF UNION COUNTY REGISTRATION

The registration of all resident Ger
mans in Union County has been ordered
by the War Department and will be
conducted by the Clayton Postmaster,
MRS. Sue Pace. starting February 4th.
and continuing daily until the ninth
OF that month.
All persons of German birth. who
have not yet received their final nat
uralization papers. or who have never
declared their intention of becoming
citizens Of the United States are con-
sidered, under this act, to be resident
alien enemies. There are many Union
County folk of German birth who ev-
cry one knows are not enemies OF this
free nation by long ways, but there
is no distinction made IN the ruling OF
the department and all must register.
The order TO the local Postmaster is
as follows;
You are hereby notified that the reg
istration of German alien enemies is
hxed to commence at a. m, on Feb.
4th., 1918, and continue on each day
successivly thereafter between the
hours of six a. m. and eight p. m, up
to, and including the ninth day of Feb
runry, 1918, at eight p. m.
Persons required to register are all
natives, denizens, citizens or subjects
of the German Empire, being male and
OF the age of fourteen years and up
} ward. who are within the United
states and not actually naturalized as
American citizens.
The act of registration is simply the
filing out Of ah elaborate b;tt aot tcri
midable, affidavit. The affidavit neec
not be filled out in the presence of th'
local registrar, but must be signed anC
sworn to in the presence of the person
appointed for such duty, in this cas-
Mrs. Pace
1t would be impossible to give ;
complete list of all the questions th'
German resident must answer. A few
of the leading questions, however, /
answered correctly will establish tn
following facts concerning the persoi
making the affadavit; his name AM
residence, place of birth. the date o
arrival in the United States, his occu
patton and how long employed ant
where, the names of his parents ant
their residence, the names of his wifi
and children, whether registered TO
the seIective draft, what, II any, mill
tary experience has been had, whethe
ever arrested. and other information o
more or less personal nature.
Each affidavit must contain an ac
curate and complete description Of tn
alien enemy. Space is provided for tn
prints of the fingers and thumbs o
both hands and each affiant is requir
ed to furnish, Mt the time of makin
the affidavit, four good photos of him
self
The purpose of the registration i
places so far in the interior as thi
is presumed TO be more for statistica
purposes than for fear on the part Q
the government that any of our go
German horn farmer-citizens will ru
amuck or cause any hindrance in tn
prosecution of the war to establish a
over The world that democracy the

wild RASPBERRY JAM

Going on raspberry gathering
trip this summer! When you get
home with your trophy-a big bucket
of lovely little round globes Of good
ness-make jam this time instead Of
the usual jelly, and see IL you don't
like 1t for q change. Here is a good
way Of making It.
Put the berries into an aluminium
stew kettle and let them heat, then
cook them for Is minutes. Have "a
as much sugar as fruit in pan and
heat II in the oven, taking care it does
not burn. After berries are cooked,
add the hot sugar and cook for Is
minutes more, then seal in jars, or
pour over . thin crust Of paraffin
wax.
Wild raspberries are particularly
good II combined in equal parts with
currants or rhubarb and boiled to.
gether, sweetened as for sauce, and
sealed in jars for winter use.

CANNING FRUIT JUICES

Fruit juices, when properly preserv-
ed, make delicious desserts for the
winter-time menus. Combined with
sago, bread crumbs, rice, cornstarch,
and lots of other things, they make
delicious desserts. Many delicious
ice creams and sherbets can be made
with fruit juice as foundation. Also
pudding sauces are ever SO much bet
ter in taste and appearance when pre-
pared with fruit Juice. II perhaps you
have more fruit than you can possibly
can, and do not want to let It go to
waste, try using it the following way:
Extract the Juice from the fruit by
cooking it briskly then putting into q
cheese cloth and letting drip over
night (if possible). Next, add sugar
to taste and put into bottles that have
been thoroly stertilized, by being put
into pan Of water and then bringing
it to the boiling point. Seal bottles
TIGHTLY and store in a cold, dark
place,

THE SONG THE NEEDLES SING
(By Clara Griffith Gaz.am)
Cunnison. Colorado

(By Clara Griffith Gaxxam)
Knit and puri, knit and puri.
All the livelong day;
This il what the needles sing
To the yarn Of gray:
Purl and knit, pun and knit,
As the garments grow;
Everyone must do their bit,
For the Cause, you know.
In countless homes the song is heard.
The song the needles sing,
As day by day the women lay
Their bit-an offering;
Fingers gnarled and rough with toll
Young fingers white and slim
Each does her ahare with equal care
Because It Is for him.
And countless hearts ct home today,
Throb to the needles song;
Al far away the ships Of gray
File silently along.
Old hearts grown wise with many
years,
Young hearts, unused to pain,
Will pray al0ne-each for her oWnss
"God send him back again."
