SHE WAS GRATEFUL, ANYWAY
Quite Natural, Under tho
Circumstances.

Edward Barrett, stsss seologist, who
lives at Thirty-slKth and Meridian
streets, was on a Meridian Heights
car on his way home recently. At
Massachusetts, avenue a young couple
got on the car. They appeared to be
very attentive and devoted to each
other. There were only two vacant
seats on the car, one at the side of Mr..
Barrett, and the other on the opposite
side OF the car. The young woman sat
down In one Of the vacant seats and
the young man In the other, but too
far away to talk TO the young woman
The couple looked at each other with
longing eyes, as II they wished to sit
together. The car was rafting along
at a noisy rate, which made 1t lmpos-
sible for one person to talk to another
any distance away. Mr.. Barrett mo-
toned with his fingers to the young
man, and pointed to the seat he was
occupying. and also to the seat the
young man was occupying, indicating
a change of seats.
The young man gladly accepted the
proffered change OF seats, and soon
the two were seated together and en-
jOying each others talk. The car
stopped at the next crossing and Mr.,
Barrett was surprised and amused to
hear the young woman murmur to the
young man, as both looked at Mr.. Bar
rett with thanks In their eyes:
ut was so kind of that deaf and
dumb man to give you his seat"
And the car jostled on.-Indlanapo

More Shipyard Volunteers Wanted.

r. w, Simonds, state director of the
United States public service reserve, who
has charge of the enrolment of volun-
teers in ship building, finds the quota of
Vermont almost attained but there is
still opportunity for others TO file their
applications. In fact, even if the quota
is attained others will be needed, for
some states may not attain their pro-
portion. He has received from Admins
traitor Hoover an appeal to the men
who are not in the draft TO apply for
this service. Mr.. Hoover explains the
need of ships to carry the food to the
soldiers, saying that unless there are
ships TO carry the food to the soldiers
there is no need of the conservation that
is being practiced and that his anxiety
relative to the ships is as great as any
federal officer Any loyal man can do
his share towards winning the war by
in ship building if he is
unable to accomplish it in some other
way. He further states that the man
who has helped build a ship has the ever
lasting pride in the knowledge that he
has helped undermine the German au-

20 PER CENT SUBSTITUTES
Are Required in Bread Prepared BY All
Bakers.

st. Adams, Feb. 25.--All bakers are
now required to use 20 per cent OF sub
stitutes in their bread and rolls, accord
ing to statement issued to-day from
the office of the federal food administra-
tor for Vermont. The bakers had been
given permission to reach the maximum
use of the substitutes by easy stages up
to Feb. "a 1t was said at the office of
the federal food administrator that bak-
ers who wilfully refuse to mix 20 per
cent of the substitutes in their bread
will he compelled to close their shops.
The success of the rule will be threat
ened if some bakers bake Victory bread
while others bake white bread in the
same community and the loyal bakers
must be given full protection against
unfair competition, il was said. II was
further said that bakers who are short OF
substitutes should Immediately make
this fact known and make an affidavit to
that effect and all cases will be given in
1ividual consideration.
There has been an important amend
ment to one OF the baking rules, pro-
vision now being made for the baking of
a three quarters pound loaf. Variance
IF three quarters of an ounce over and
three quarters of an ounce under are
permitted in individual loaves but the
average weight of not less than % loaves
hall be not less than the prescribed
weight. The new loaf may be baked
ingly or in twin form, two in pan, and !
Is manufacture is subject to the same |
ules as all other bread
The new weight simply adds an addi
ional loaf size and is not intended to
Iisplace the one-pound unit and was
dopted as a wheat saving measure on
he showing that in some large cities
here are many families which require
ess than one pound of bread per day.
