care Of Kitchen Equipment.

American women as a class have
not practiced economy to any extent
in the care of household equipment,
the states relations service Of the
department Of agriculture believes.
There generally has been sufficient
money to buy a new article when 1t
was needed, or when there was wish
to buy, ard the market has been well
supplied with new devices to tempt
the housewife. Now it is impossible
to purchase some of the simplest arti-
cles because they are not being manu-
factured. The housekeeper is sud-
denly confronted with the unusual
value of little things and the present
is the opportunity to acquire habits Of
thrift.
AreYou Guilty Of These Misdemeanors7
The want of thought in the care
and use Of equipment is often the
cause Of its short life. Sore of the
apparently trifling mistakes which
cause utensils and tools to wear out
before they should are the following:
Contents Of saucepans and kettles
boiled until dry and the metal over
heated.
Handles, screws and fastenings of
knives, forks, egg beaters, ETC.. loos-
ened from having, been left in hot
water.
Metal utensils put away wet. .caus-
ing them to rust. hNt
Covers put away wet with steam as
they are taken off the saucepan.
Brooms and brushes used cOntinu-
ally on one side and worn to a point.
Brooms allowed to stand on the
floor until their weight bends or
breaks the straw.
Glasses broken because the bottom
instead Of the side is put into hot
water.
China dulled by washing with too
strong soapsuds.
Liquids spilled on rugs or polished
surfaces because the container was
too full.
Contents of the saucepan boiled
over on the stove or in the oven be
cause allowance was not made for the
expansion Of liquids by heat.
Burners of gas and oil stoves clog
ged and useless by burned food.
Rugs torn by having been held by
the edge while shaking In cleaning.
Glazing Of porcelain and enameled
sinks. tubs and wash bowls scratched
and broken by cleaning with coarse
cleaning materials.
Finish Of furniture marred by plac-
ing hot dishes. medicine bottles and
by spilling liquids on 1t.
Furniture cracks and parts loosened
because the oil bath and rub are not
applied regularly.
China broken in the refrigerator by
placing heavier dishes on 1t.
Dish towels scorched and stained
when used for oven cloths and to lift
hot saucepans from the stove.
Vanished and oiled woodwork
spoiled by washing with soap.
Springs in beds, couches and chairs
and other pieces of furniture broken
by allowing children to jump and play
too roughly on them.

Getting Into the
Service
r.
By ROY MASON
Of The YigiLonfss

The doctor said no with all the final
ity with which our medical men ex-
amining candidates for the army can
pronounce this word. The rejected
candidate turned away, profoundly de-
jected, his mind in chaos because all
his plans were upset. He was over
draft age, but he had been so confi-
dent that he could pass. He was of
no use in this war, he reflected bit
terly. He might as well be cripple
or blind for all that he could do to
help.
1t had seemed so simple to pay all
his debts, arrange his affairs, put his
surplus into Liberty Bonds and the
odd change into War Savings Stamps
and then enlist. And now they
wouldn't have him. All on account
of an infinitesImal heart murmur.
There's no use sending one man to
the front whom two will have to carry
back" the doctor had said decidedly.
AS he slouched down Michigan ave-
nue. In Chicago, dropping In mind and
body. he noticed n button on the coat
lapel of a six-foot stranger. 1t wns not
n Liberty Bond button, nor Red
Cross button. The stranger stopped to
gaze out over Lake Michigan and he
managed to read "War Camp Commu-
nifty Service" upon 1t. The stranger
looked up, saw him reading, and gave
him a quick appraising glance.
A Ray Of Sunshine.
"Know about it?" he asked.
NO" the detected man answered
half heartedly. "What is it?"
"Great stuff" his new acquaintance
informed. Little old war job the
Recreation Association of America
took on when the soldiers and sailors
began springing up over night like
mushrooms. It's tied up with the War
Department Commission for Training
Camp Activities"
The man who had been turned down
by the doctor pricked up his ears.
"What do you do?" he wanted to
know.
The six-footer grinned.
''Kind of long story" he began,
"but we get after every community
anywheres near the training camps
and forts and naval stations, and
well, see that the boys get some sensi-
BILE entertainment-get folks interest
ed in them as individuals, you know.
SO that they get chance to eat n

they've left, for chaperOns. Then we
fix up clubs, and lists of cheap lodg-
ings which are all right. There's a
lot to do, you can bet your bottom
dollar on thnt."

The man who had been refused q
chance in the army grabbed him BY
the sleeve.
"Say." he broke out. 'Do you need
anybody to push things along. I'd like

Within ten minutes after an applk
cation of Danderine you can not find q
single trace Of dandruff or falling hair
and ycnr scalp will not itch. but what
will please you most will be after few
weeks use, when you see new hair. fine
and downy at first-yes-but really
new hair-growing all over the scalp.
A little Danderine Immediately dou-
bles the beauty Of your hair. No diff
ference how dull, faded, brittle and
scraggy, just moisten a cloth with DaL
derine and carefully draw 1t through
your hair. taking one small strand at .
time. The effect is amazing-your haii
will be light. fluffy and wavy. and have
an appearance Of abundance; an In
comparable lustre. softness and luxu-
rance.
Get a small bottle of Knowlton's
Danderine for a few cents at any drug
store or toilet counter, and prove that
your hair is as pretty and soft as any
that it has been neglected or injured
BY careless treatment-thats all-you
surely can have beautiful hair and lots

Form into fiat cakes, dust with bread
crumbs or cornmeal and fry In little

tions: To utilize leftover cereals, use
one cupful Of cooked rice, oatmeal or
cornmeal mush with three-fourths cup
full of bread crumbs. Dry cornmeal
or finely ground oatmeal may be
used for stiffening the above mixture,
but in such case it is better to form
into a loaf and bake 1t in the oven
about 25 minutes. Other seasonings
may be used in place of the above. The
amount of liquid will vary in every
case. The mixture should be very
stiff, since the cheese tends to soften
it during the cooking.

BARE" SUGAR. STIRS
CONSERVATIONISTS
Would Serve 1t In Oiled Paper
to End Waste of Second
Lump

Sugar used to be classified as loaf,
granulated or pulverized; but, these
days, 1t is better known as envelope,
paper-wrapped or bare
1t is the latter class which the food
experts are now attacking, on the theory
that unwrapped, uncovered sugar is
badly wasted.
Gradually the hotel and restaurant
keepers have abandoned their free and
open sugar jars that stood on the table
day after day, and in their stead the
customer finds an envelope of sugar or

Jumps which is interesting conserva-
tionists now. One lump of sugar may
seem trivial matter, but for some
persons it sufficiently sweetens cup OF
coffee. And the fellow who uses only
one lump will invariably leave the other
on his saucer.
If it is a bare" lump and coffee
splashes on it, it is spoiled for further
use. Food economists are advocating
Either it should be in an envelope, they

customer might cause one restaurant to
lose 100 pounds a day.
