Save New.
Speaking in New York in behalf
of the Fourth Liberty Loan, Sec.
retary McAdoo called attention |
to the fact that not all the bill.
ions We are spending for the wal
are for destructive purposes. We
can't lick the Kaiser and estab.
lish liberty in the world unless We
do spend billions. But among
the material benefits we will have
after the war, for which money
is being spent now, will be the
greatest merchant feet in the
world, with wharves and termi.
nal facilities to accommodate it,
and that investment will be OF
immeasurable value to the Am.
erican people. Furthermore, out

ed with interest. Continuing,
Mr.. McAdoo said:
"Wages and salaries are high
er in America today than ever
before in its history. Those who
spend everything they earn are
not only living in a FOOLS para.
disc, but they are doing a griev.
GUS injury to theircountry. They
are living in a FOOLS paradise be.
cause the same degree of pros.
perity cannot be expected to con.
tinue upon the return Of peace,
when the inevitable readjust.
ments OF all industries must take
place; and they are doing their
country agrievousin injury because
it is only by saving that We can
provide our government with the
money which it must have to buy
the essential supplies for our mil
itary forces. Every dollar saw
; ed now and invested in Liberty
bonds will be worth much more
when peace comes again."
That fact needs to be stressed
and while it applies especially tx
: wage earners, it applies to peo-
> pie of small means in all lines
! The era OF high prices may coz
tinue for q little time after TIN

1t is the American boost that
We arr fighting this war not for
te ritorial or commercial gain,
but to preserve liberty, not only
for our own country but for the
world. Every time he makes a
public address, President Viii.
son states that fact more clearly.

when it is ended must mean 'im.

interests crossed; and not only
impartial justice butalso the sat-
isfaction OF the several peoples
whose fortunes are dealt with. !"
1t must be a Justice, continues
the President, that plays no ia
vorites and knows no standard
but the equal rights OF the sever.
al peoples concerned; and there
must be no leagues or alliances
or ordinations or boycotts with.

All must be on q fair and equal

There is an ideal condition

Boil down cider gives q prod.

remove this, itis necessary to add
carbonate or milk Of lime to the

Method OF making Apple Sy-

syrup, it is necessary to have
seven gallons Of apple cider. Stir
into this five ounces Of powdered
calcium carbonate carbonate of

the form OF pNcipitated chalk or
powdered marble dust.
Heat the cider and allow it to
boil for a few minutes. As the ci.

sary to use q vessel at least one
third larger than the volume OF
cider. Pour the CIDER after boil.

half gallon fruit jars, which per-

will take several hours. When
the liquid is perfectly clear and
shows a distinct sediment at the
bottom, gently pour off the clear
portion into preserving kettle
filliugthe kettle only one.third

Add to the clear liquid a level
teaspoonfull Of the carbonate OF
lime stirring thoroughly. Allow
the liquid to boil rapidly until
it is reduced to ono gallon, or
one seventh OF the original vol.
umn. Test the liquid by cooling
q small portion rapidly and cease
cooking when it has reached the
consistency of maple syrup. The
aim is to have q thin syrup rath.

Jars, set the vessels into buckets
or tubs of hot water to allow the
syrup to cool slowly, this is very
important if a clear product is
desired. A fireless cooker or wash

This is a harmless compound for
