Submarine U-39 Limps
Into Cartagena Port;
Torpedoed Lusitania
BY Associated Press

Madrid, Sunday, May 19.-The
German USE, says an official dis
patch from Cartagena, entered that
port last night in damaged condi-
tion.
The USE, according to German
advices, is the submarine that tor
pedoed the Lusitania off Kinsale on
May Z, 1915. A dispatch from
Munich, Bavaria, received in Switz-
erland on May s, said that it was the
U-39 that sank the British liner. on
March II. 1915, it was reported in
Washington that it was the U-39
which attacked the American tanker
Petrolite off the coast of Egypt in
December, 1915. 1t is possible that
the old U-39 may be out of service
by this time and that her number has
been taken by new boat.

 Eat Potatoes and Serve Your Country" reads the following bulletin furnished by the United States Food Administration:
 Eat potatoes and serve your coun- try
 The time has arrived when every ounce of wheat saved and shipped to Europe is direct contribution towards winning the war. This becomes more importantly true each day.
 One of the best substitutes for bread is potatoes. Eat them yourself, serve them to your friends and urge your en- tire acquaintance to do the same.
 Most Americans, except perhaps in one or two sections of the country, have the habit of eating potatoes. It is not difficult to increase most habits to become slaves to them-especially to the bad ones, in fact.
 Make a change and be enslaved by a good one. When tempted to eat bread, take a potato.
 Bake them, boil them, cream them, hash brown them roast them with the meat, eat them sold in salad. You may even saute them with mixture of chopped onion if you are sure to use in the process a vegetable substitute for the fats which we must also save.
 There is such variety of wonderful ways of cooking potatoes that the eat ing can never become monotonous.
 Remember that every potato eaten as a substitute for wheat, make certain just so much more flour for our sol- dier-men and the allies.
 Every step of the progress of this country has cost much in suffering. in hardship and in self denial. The coun- try was settled under hard conditions : the great pioneering movements called for the greatest courage and devotion {; and what the preservation of the union meant we can still remember.
 We are again fighting for our ideals. We can again offer more than money for the things we hold nearest our hearts" It is the institutions of democracy for which we wish to sac rifice our cherished comforts and easy habits. It is to preserve our national life as our traditions and beliefs have made it that we are today making every effort to change our every day life.

APRICOT ORIGINAL
 NATIVE OF CHINA

The apricot tree is, as one might guess, near relative of the plum and the peach, being about halfway be- tween the two. It is believed to have originated in China and then to have been planted widely through Asia. It was introduced to Europe after the expedition of Alexander the Great whose soldiers made the world their debtors by discovering all sorts of things to eat that were unknown to Europeans.
 The apricot did not get to England however, until the 16th century. at about the same time that the peach and the plum were brought. The fruit at that time was not much big ger than damson plum, but it has been constantly increased in size by careful experimentation.
 Practically all of the dried apricots with which we are more familiar than we are with the ripe fruit come to us from California, where 9S Der cent Of all the American-g grown april cots are raised. There are more than 3,5000O0 bearing trees in the country which produce annually more than 100000 bushels of the fruit. The value of this one crop, which we thing of as negligible. is nearly s3.- 0O0,0O0 year to American farmers.
 Outside of the United States the apricot is widely grown in France. Italy, Turkey, Syria and Palestin. and Italy, Turkey, Syria and Palestine. and year in Australia and South Africa. The French raise it in tremendous quantities and export much of their crop to England.
 The dried apricots of California are not only shipped to all parts of the i United States, but also to nearly every quarter of the world. One of the curious facts about the industry is that most of the stones left after the apricots have been dried are ex- ported to Europe. From these an oil, somewhat similar to almond oil is extracted. One would hardly expect however that it could be found com mercially profitable to send fruit pits across the ocean. But there are stranger things in the business world than most people suspect.
 In some varieties of apricots tn. stone is edible. and the people of the | Orient are very fond of them. IT Egypt especially. apricot kernels are as much liked as almonds.

entS from widely distant parts of the division who are thus qualifying them selves to take charge of the Student Courses and all other Red Cross acti- vities of their respective chapters. Home Service Section of Civilian
 Relief
 Another extension of the Red Cross work of the Pasadena Chapter was the organization, in December, 1917. of the Home Service Section of Civilian Re lief The chapter leaflet says: "As a narm of the Red Cross. the Home Service offers financial aid, legal ad- vice and medical assistance to the de- pendent families of our enlisted men. This is done in a purely confidential and friendly spirit The movement is endorsed by the United States gov ernment, and should in no way be con- strued as charity. It is simply giving the recipients that to which they are justly entitled. Already 31 families have been cared for At regular inter- vals the department has ha dwell known authorities deliver lectures on home dietics food conservation, the family budget system, and the care and prevention of tuberculosis. These lec- lures have always been well attended, showing the deeper interest people are taking in the more serious problems of the day" The officials in charge are a chairman, vice-c chairman, and secretary, the first and last of these being ladies. They are assisted by a group of visitors, clergymen lawyers, physicians, dentists, and nurses.
 Still another feature of the Pasadena | Chapters organization is it's Active Corps, which runs" the machinery of the chapter. Of this corps the leaflet says: "The great, important parts ot work room, gauge room, stock room packing and class reception committed and auXiliaries, are held together in an organic whole, supplied with recruits and aided in smooth running, by this remarkably Well-Organized body ol young recruits" The idea of the Active | Corps was brought to Pasadena from the Boston Chapter by young woman who reported at Pasadena to continue the service for which she had signed in the east.

 DURING HUT MONTHS

While the period for rest and recre- ation has arrived, society maids ana matrons appreciating the needs of the future have not permitted the warm weather to interfere with their plans. Realizing that there will be vast amount of home service work required next season, they are seriously devot- ing their time to social welfare meet ing twice a week with Miss Gilchrist, superintendent of Associated Charities who is conducting the class which in- cludes in membership Mrs. Colt Hughes. Mrs. Earl McCollum. Miss Faye De Mund, Miss Mary Lewis, Miss Dorothy Pickrell, Miss Mary McDer- mott, Miss Meredith Bishop and Miss Helen Armstrong. After they have completed their course they propose devoting their time to service work with the Red Cross, among the famii- ies of the soldiers. and also for the Associated Charities. Investigation will feature their work and their se-- vices will be volunteered TOT any anc all cases.
 Prompted jointly by the fact that there were practically no trained social workers in the city and that they were interested in this line of work, the young women suggested giving it their study The course was outlined py Dr. F.

Indiana, and later taught the subject in eastern colleges, as well as Occidental College, Cali fornia. After a business career for a short period, she came to Proenix where she has served as superintend- ent of the Associated Charities for a long term. The character of her work can be determined by the fact that the local charities as an organization takes rank above California and many other states with the national organization Miss Gilchrists knowledge based or study and practical experience will combine to make her invaluable as an instructor to the class which is seri- ously interested in preparing itself ir order that it might do it's bit in ser vice work next winter.
