Bomb Throwing at Cornell.

Special to Times Republican.
Mount Vernon, March 22.-Bomb
throwing will probably be included in
the program of events in outdoor spring
athletics this year. Captain Norman
MacQueen, veteran Of ehe Somme and
instructor of military training at Cornell
college, himself an all-around athlete,
has worked out a plan of points for
this work which will be governed more
accurately than hammer and discus
throwing.
The contestants will be compelled
to lie flat on their face in trench
eighteen inches deep. To throw the
bomb they will rise on one knee and
with an overland throw will cast the
bomb at a spot supposedly another
trench The winner will be decided upon
speed with which the bombs are thrown
and the accuracy in striking the oppo-
site trench. The bomb will be of cast iron
and will weigh between three and five
pounds.

WHY NOT REFLECT THE COVER
NOR.

To read the enthusiastic encourage
ment given to Ben Olcott by some of
our strong democratic contemporar-
les lead us to wonder of the why's and
wherefores. 1t is the most unusual
thing for a democratic paper to sup
port a republican and still more un-
usual for a so-called independent-non
partisan (eleven times out of ten
democratic) to fall into such gener-
Gus rawlings over a man of professed
republican principles OlcOtt may
make a good governor of Oregon. He
has made a good secretary of state.
We question whether he would excel
the present governor and might not
make half as good.
Anyway there is no question about
Governor Withycombe. All Republi-
cans can vote for him with clear
conscience and knowledge that they
are going to get four years more of a
good, clean. and progressive admin
istration at Salem.
A vote for Moser or vote for An
derson in substance would mean a
vote for Olcott, for present indica-
tions are that they will not run
strong but will pull more for Simp-
son or Withycombe. Simpson is
showing more color everyday and
may loom up amazingly strong at the
finish However, Governor Witty
combe will have that substantial far
ming element lined up solidly behind
him and with the new friends he has
made since entering upon his present
administration will probably carry
him through to victory. And remem-
ber, there are no political barbed wire
entanglements around the governors
position.

TOO MUCH CENSORSHIP.

Ever since a bureau of public in
formation was formed at Washington
and strict censorship passed on all
matters Of news, there has been OBJ
jections presented on the part of this
liberty loving people. As the Pendle-
ton Tribune says, the war depart
ment seems to be utterly lost in its
policy or lack of policy in the matter
of news censorship. 1t promises to
keep the public informed of war con-
ditions, and fails to do so, 1t asserts
that the casualty lists will be prompt
ly published. and then switches and
refuses to publish them. This is re-
public, not an oligarchy The men in
control of the war machinery appear
to imagine that they are so infallible
that mere dicta from them as to what
is wise or what is unwise, must be &C
cepted as final. They possess the
West Point notion, which notion is
usually wrong.
pray whose boys are they who are
wounded, and who perchance are Kill
led? Who is interested in the rec2p-
tion of prompt and accurate informa-
tion, if not the families of the men.
Do the arm chair warriors in Wash
ington imagine the people are chill
dren, and that they cannot endure as
well as cheer?"
One thing is certain. We are in
this war until the very cause of wars
is banished from this earth, let us
hope. for ever. The American peO-
pie are as settled on that idea just as
firmly as they were ever settled on
anything and the Yankee mind, once
determined. will not be- sidetracked
by any false issues.
Then as long as nothing can daunt
our resolutions, not even the painful
gloom of wounded and dying, then
why should the facts, especially af
ter they have transpired, not be given
to the people. The subject of press
censorship introduces the now time
worn phrase that the administra-
tion is above criticism yet loyal and
constructive criticism may yet prove
to have been the salvation of democ-
racy and it may yet prove to have
been the very thing that sped UP the
winning of the war so far as the Uni
ted States is concerned. What mis-

WAR RECIPES.
(By Edythe Boyd.)

A number of requests have come to
the domestic science department Of
our high school that we publish war
recipes" in the local papers, in or
der that greater number of the
housekeepers of Morrow county may
have the benefit of the work done in
our laboratory.
This work will be taken up by the
members of the domestic science clas-
ses. No recipie will appear in these
articles that has not been tried and
| found to be good Hoover food. :"
In all our work it is our purpose to
follow the rules of the Food Conser
walton Bureau and thus do our part
in helping to win the war, by conser-
wing sugar, animal fats, wheat and
meat.
Recipes for war breads which will
follow have been compiled by the
/ Food Conservation Commission.
Rice Yeast Bread.
The rice yeast bread is very white
in color, more moist than wheat
bread and keeps moist longer. 1t is
handled in much the same manner as
wheat bread. The first dough how
ever is much sitter and after once
rising, the light dough is so soft that
it cannot be kneaded with the hands.
1t should be stirred with strong
spoon and placed in the pans, looking
much like a stiff drop batter. After
baking, the upper crust is less smooth
than that of our familiar wheat -four
loaf
The following amounts make two
large loaves:
One half cup of water.
Four tablespoons corn syrup.
Four tablespoons fat vegetable
oil.)
One and half teaspoons salt.
Seven cups boiled rice.
Eight cups -four.
One half cake compressed yeast
soaked in luke warm water. (Other
yeasts can be used but less wetting
must then be used.)
Scald liquid if milk Is used. Pour
over fats, sugar and salt. Cool and
add rice and -four and then kneed.
After a second rising bake 45 min
utes.
