FAITHFUL BEAST BURIED
WITH APPROPRIATE SERVICES

On the morning of April 9Th, at IL
o'clock, Hugh Collins lost one of his
old horses. Many paid their last re-
spects to the old faithful beast. Henry
and Joe Ang took charge of the body,
while Robert Zulker drove it to its last
resting place. His dog Frank carried
a wreath of Forget-me-nots, which was
very appropriate. Carl Bunting, Mark
Simpkins, Dave Stetser and Zef Risley
acted as ~pallbearers. The grave was
dug by the colored help. William New
ell sang over the grave "She is better
Off" The scripture was read by David
Stetser. "Thou shalt rest thy weary
bones.'

Taking Active Part in Various
Lines of War Work.
HER SUCCESSES REMARKABLE
She Has Invaded the Shop, Elevator,
Street Car, Taxicab Field and Doz-
n of Other Places Formerly Listed
as "Man's Domain"-Experts Say
Women Are More Painstaking and
More Conscientious Than Men.

American women have responded to
the call of emergency war work with
such vigor and success as to leave no
room for criticism or contempt.
Women have invaded the shop, ele-
yator, street car, taXicab field, and
dozens of other places formerly listed
as "man's domain" With very little
exception, success has crowned their
efforts.
Especially is this true in the NUM-
lions plants of this and foreign coun-
tries. There their success has been
remarkable. In a day of five and one
half hours woman has turned III
two-thirds as much work as nan has
been able to turn out in a day of eleven
hours.
Experts say that ONE are more
painstaking; that they give more at
tention to detail and that they are
more conscientious than their male CO.
workers.
Met With Drawbacks.
But in taking up mans work they
have not escaped their drawbacks,
their criticisms, their embarrassments.
The world vas prone to stand to one
side and, with p~essimistic attitude,
watch their success or failure.
In Europe, where the women first
proved their mettle, they entered their
various trades and channels of labor
under less embarrassing circumstances
than the women of America.
There the man power-the male
workers on whom the government was
of necessity forced to depend-was so
quickly exhausted that there was but
the one solution, namely, the women
must do the work.
Their success is now most interest
ing history. The foreign papers and
even the cables have carried countless
stories of the glowing successes attend
ing the work of women
They have entered the fields, tilling
the soil and reaping bountiful harvest
by labor which racked their brains
and bodies. Torn and bleeding hands
handled the unwieldy farming nipple
ments, but women stuck to their tasks

In this country, as was to be ex-
pected, the ONE moved more slowly
toward their inevitable tasks. They
busted themselves with the easier
tasks of knitting, the making of band
ages and other hospital supplies and
the collection of money for war funds.

The American woman took her first
determined step when she interested
herself in the first issue of Liberty
loan bonds. In groups and individu-
ally they argued with those able to
invest in war bonds, and the country

Then followed the Red Cross socie-
ty campaign for a fund of 100000 900.
Women again saw their duty and per-

The grain will be delivered to the

THE ECHO.

Americans, We are calling thee,
To save our land of Liberty:
Each one car do his part,
With a true and loyal heart.
So come, march in line,
And we will all keep time,
To my Country It's of Thee;
And we will save our land
Of sweet, sweet liberty.

In the interims.
Many prepared themselves for &C.
tual service in the European wal hos
pitfalls. Many remained at home to
take the places of those who went
"over there" Others knit sweaters
and caps for the boys in the trenches,
while others persistently continued
their quests for more war funds.

Public Health Notice

An epidemic of chickenpox prevails
in Owosso, mostly in the Washington
school district. All children having it
must not attend school, but be kept
strictly at home and reported to the
health officer by phone, mail or in per-
son. Children who have had it may
attend school, but others in the same
house with case cannot.
Whooping cough is also quite pre-
valent and is dangerous to infants.
This disease must also be reported
the same as chickenpox, and children
kept strictly at home and off the pub
lie walks.

Wheatless Days and Meals

Help by substituting other cereals
and vegetables for at least one-thirt
Of the wheat -four ordinarily used. Dc
this in two ways:
Serve War Breads. Make quich
breads such as corn bread, mullins
ETC., which use very small per cent
Of flour, and substitute in your own
! yeast-bread recipe, for at least IA OF
the wheat -four, any of the following
Rye flour
Buckwheat
Barley flour
Rice flour
Oatmeal
Cornmeal
Cooked breakfast food
Mashed potatoes
Remember that bread made Of mix
ed -four is better body building ma
terial than that made from one grain
alone. The loaf will be as nourishine
but not so large or light. Compare
lively small amounts of wheat need be
used In the right kind Of quick breads
mullins, etc. Much wheat can be
saved by making these often.
Use most freely what is nearest al
hand, in order that there may be more
shipping space for sending food to our
soldiers. Michigan is becoming IA
NOUS for its Rosen rye. Use rye flour
when available. It makes excellent
bread and pastry. The barley crop
is a good one and barley -four makes
good bread. Try It.
Michigan had an unusually large
crop of potatoes last year. Use po
tatoes in bread and instead OF bread
Eat one more potato and one slice
less of bread each day. Try using pc
tstoes in cake and pastry. Let wheat
be as much of a luxury this year az
potatoes were last spring.
Use more vegetables on the Ia
BILE, and less bread and meat.
Zone more potato each day.
Zone less slice of bread"
Eat more turnips, cabbage, carrots
beans, and peas, and less Of the Ger
calls.
Help BY Saving Wheat.
Do not waste Flour. II there Is f1oul
left on the mixing board, sift it to free
II ffom crumbs or dough and save II
to use again for dredging the board
Sift the flour before you measure
then put it into the cup lightly with 9
spoon; do not shake it down. Be ex
ceedingly careful not to spill any o.
the -four. Scrape mixing bowls clean
Do not waste Bread. Use bread
board and cut bread at the
table as it is needed. Save a.
the crumbs that fall as you slice 1t
Dry bread can be rolled or put through
the food chopper and the crumbs sub
stituted for part Of the flour in griddle
cakes, bread and cookies. They car
be used to thicken soup; to cover Gro
uuettes and scallop-dishes; or they car
be combined with meat or nuts t.
make loaves. Stale bread can be GU
into cubes and dried in a slow over
to make croutons to serve with soups
1t can be made into cheese pudding
and bread buildings. 1t can be made
into French toast by being dipped IL
milk and eggs and fried.

(Ciip and save these recipes for

Reduce the Family Allowance Of
Meat. This can be done in two ways:
First, purchase less meat, and by
careful planning and cooking make 1t
go further.
Don't throw away meat left-overs.
The tiny bits of meat or the small
amount Of meat liquor will add meat
taste to other foods and reconcile
someone to the substitution of other
protein foods for the meat to which
he is accustomed.
Second, get into the habit Of serving
meat substitutes in the place Of meat.
| There are certain foods which will
give the body very much the same
kind Of nourishment as does meat.
Milk, eggs, cheese, beans and peas,
nuts, fish and poultry will do this. Use
these often!
The following hints may prove help
full In making the family happy on both
meatless days and other days:
USE SOUPS.
II the amount of the meat left over
Is too small to use In the following
recipes, 1t can always be made into a
palatable soup. Cut up the meat, add
water, and cook a few minutes. Add
one-half cup left over tomato or one
tablespoonful of ketchup, and season
ing. Small pieces of any vegetable
that happens to be left over may be
added, celery, onion, beans, etc. Many
will like the addition of little rice
or cold cooked macaroni Croutons or
toasted bread cubes are good SUBJ
stitutes for crackers and often more
convenient. The liquor in which the
meat was cooked may always be SUBJ
stituted for meat and water.
USE GRAVES.
Any meat left over or meat liquor
may be made into gravy. Grind or
chop the meat, add water, and cook.
Serve on toast for lunch or with pota.
toes for dinner.
Use Meat with Potatoes.
SMALL pieces OF ham or bacon are an
addition to a dish of escallOped pota-
toes. Put the meat in the bottom Of
the dish or on top of the potatoes. A
slice of bacon laid on a salmon loaf
and baked with 1t makes an appetite
ing dish
Use Bread Crumbs, Etc., With Meat.
Use bread, cracker crumbs, cooked
oatmeal, cornmeal, cracked wheat and
hominy with meats that are left over.
BY such additions you give your family
a wholesome and comparatively mex
pensive dish. at the same time satisfy
ing their craving for the flavor Of
meat.

Two sad years with all the changes
Since death strangely babe us part
But my dear husband all the changes
Cannot take you from my heart.

Rest on dear father, thy labor is DER,
Thy willing hands will toll no more,

When the evenings shadows are

And we are sitting all alone;
In our hearts there comes a longing
II you could only come home.
Peaceful be thy rest. dear husband.
It's sweet to breathe thy name;
