to Teach
Russians u. S.
= Cooking

New York. Aug. 23.-Serving
good American dishes to 500 SOL
diers daily-with meager supplies
and a Russian cook-was real job,
according to Helen Ogden of Or
ange, N, J., just arrived from Arch
angel, Russia.
Miss Ogden and FIVE other Y. w.
c. A. secretaries who had been fore
ed to leave Russia along with the
allied embassies last autumn, went
into Archangel in December and set
about opening hostess house for
American soldiers.
"At first we served only the sim
plest kind of things, such as coffee
or cocoa with cookies, but later we
found it possible to procure more
supplies, and by spring we had pies,
doughnuts, pancakes, tarts, biscuits
with jam or honey, chocolate layer
cake and other things that reminded
the boys of home.
I'VE served on the average 500
cups of coffee or cocoa a day and
used between 90 and 50 pounds of
both -four and sugar daily. Our
staff increased from FIVE to fifteen
in a short time, and then the trou-
BILE came. 1t was difficult to teach
Russian women how to cook Amer
lean dishes. On the whole they did
very we'll, though.
Zone day the boys said the dough-
<ae%ol eafhnV
CATION proved that they had been
rolled in custard powder instead Of
sugar because it looked as pretty
and saved the trouble of pounding
up the sugar. Another day the
water had a peculiar favor. One of
the cooks had decided that a little
sugar and limejuice added to the
water would make delightful
drink.
"The Hostess house boasted one
rocking chair, curtains and posters
for wall decorations as luxuries, and
most important of ala huge
American flag. Our service hours
were from 2:3O until 80 in the aft
ernoon and from ] until 9 at night,
during which time the place was
jammed. Cigaret smoke was so
thick that the air could be cut with
knife, and music from our piano
and a couple of old instruments was
continuous. When sailors came in
port we had to keep open right
through the afternoon and evening,
because they came ashore just as
the soldiers were going to mess"
The last thing which the Y. w. c.
A. secretaries did before leaving on
their furloughs was to help in es-
tabishing a home for Russian
women and girls just released from
prison. This was done at the re-
quest of the British military author
tiles until an English woman could
come out to take charge Of the work.

been infinitely less than it is if the
money donated to it had been cut up
into one hundred million dollars each,
Colonel Fries said. : However, the en-
tire amount is invested, and it can be
used for the work deemed most urg-
ent and that considered as doing the
most good. He said that committees
should especially try to influence peo-
n fO oif 10
SO the gifts might be used to the best
advantage to the ciyt The donations
