PALESTINE HOME
|. FOR WORLDS JEWS

NEW YORK, Nov, 2S.-When Mr..
Balfour, then British foreign minister.
conveyed TO Lord Rothschild, just twO
years ago, Il statement declaring that
the British government favored the es-
adjustment In Palestine of a national
home for the Jewish people, and would
do It's Utmost to bring about such n
settlement, the news was hailed
throughout the worlds Jewry as mark
ing a new Ora in the history of the
Jewish race. Mr., Balfour's announce
ment was made just prior to the on
elusive victories Of Gen, Allenby, which
drove the Turk from Palestine, and reg
lstered the fun measure Of achievement
\ for the ninth crusade, Since that time
Jews in all parts of the world have been
interesting themselves in the great
| project.
Such projects, however, are not
achieved in n day. Another fun year
of war followed Mr. B~alfour's announce
ment, and when actual warfare came to
an end, last November, those who knew
anything about the matter fully recog-
ni2ed the immensely Of the task to be
accomplished before\ such n question

days Of the peace conference length

grew anxious as to the fulfillment of
the promises that had been made to him.
IT was, therefore. a peculiarly grateful
piece Of intelligence which Lord Cur

Zionist meeting, held in London, the
other day, that no change had occurred

MEXICAN MONEY WORTH
MORE THAN MINTAGE

MEXlCO CITY, Nov. 2S.-The mos
persistent phrase encountered by the
buying public jim Mexico at present is
NO hay cambio,' there is no change"
The silver in the Mexican peso, fifty
cent piece and the smaller coins, is
worth more than the face value Of the
coin SO this money has been boarded
by many persons and sold for their sill
yer content.
The result is that Gamble or change
has disappeared and persons who buy
or sell are forced TO pay from four to
seven per cent for silver pieces from
brokers. Nest merchants refuse 20
make small sales II they are forced to
give change, asserting they would lose
money in the transaction.
The 'azteca" or Mexican twenty peso
piece tgoldl is practically useless as
money in stores or cafes when the
purchase is for a small amount.
II might as well be broke as have
an a~zteca," complained an American
who was hungry and could not find a
cafe 70 change his gold. .Iater he hit
upon a unique. scheme. He deposited
the 'azteca" with the cafe proprietor
and proceeded to rat at intervals until
he had no more credit, which with pre-
vailing prices was not a long time.

WAR TIME FRuGALtTY FORGOT TEN

Dear Sisters of The Social Corner: A housckeeper is known by her bread jari How many are following the frugal wartime * example of King George of England. who ordered that no loaf be sliced except when on the ta bl-. - a meal, so as to guard against waste? 4e,
 How many slices of good bread are left to mold in jar ors@tin. when it might be made use of for buildings for pIain,- French. or milk toast, for ',brewis" which all children like-hard bread softened by boiling water wet up with milk -sprtnkled with sugar, and maybe with a. sitting of cinnamon or nutmeg. a +s-4azt
 The ineuisitive fairy which had the power to look down chimneys to see what was going on in any house does not learn more than do many of the garbage collectors, who twice a week carry off half or quarter 1oaves. of expensive bread which has been left to grow moldy and sour.
 Then, too,T in buying bread at bakers, grocer's, or delicatessen. store. women are too careless, paying good money for ioaves of bread which have been standing in rnusty, unWa sh ed and unaired cases, so that the loaf spells before half used. Insist upon having the best for your money that is one way of speedily reducing the high cost of living.

There were over fifty present who fully ap- preeiated the good things The Corner Sisters known so well how to make
 After dinner there was guessing contest which was both amusing and instructive.
 Selinda gave one of her humorous France, who has moved to New York state and music was furnished by some of the Sisters. Hulda looked in just for short time, and all were sorry she could not stay longer.
 The hall is desira ble in being sun ny and bright. well ventilated, plen- ty of room, and the use of a piano or organ, and a good platform where our dramatic" aaIent can be displayed.
 The place was new to some. but to those who have made the city their home for many years. there were reminisceHcies of lthe days when this hall was the favored place where they "tripped the light fantastic toe.'' attended a rousing political rally or on Sunday night listened to the "pil- iars of temperance" tas they were coued) at the Band or Hope meet ings.
 Those were good old days when there were no wars or rumors of war no strikes or any of the present dis turbing- clements.
 We hope to See. many at our Novem- Der gathering. which will be in the able hands of the Scotland Sisters.

A, SHORT AUTO TRIP.

Dear Social Corner Sisters: I have recently returned from a short auto ited friends in Brockton and then drove to Providence which is one of the oldest cities in Newt England It was settled by Roger Williams in 1886 homestead with several acres of land to the city for park. It is called Roger Williams Park and the cottage with it's quaint furnishings is known as The Betsey Williams.
 The well kept drives and walks arc bordered with rare shrubs and flowers and there is a fine museum. casino ayfd bandstand. to add to its attrac- tion.
 At one end of the park are kept many animals and birds; and one can almost, imagine themselves in the country. as that part of the park Is left in it's natural foveliness.
 One lovely day we drove to Rocky Providence river. T
 Later we went to Connecticut and visited at three fine farms, one of which was the hospitabIe home Of C. E. s. We called on many friends and spent a delightful week.
 I. called at, the new hall. hoping to see some of the class. but it was ra = ther early for them to assemble, 90 I saw only the hostesses who urged me to stay longer but time and man will not wait for a woman ,'ou know
 We Tad a pleasant ride home. for Dame Nature has donHed her fall COS r tune of scarlet and gold and with a background of green. made the seen cry very beautiful.
 A few weeks ago. we drove through Beacon HilL one of the oldest and most interesting parts of Boston.
 In this little section many of 'our great leaders have lived and much of our hest historical writing, story and poetry, AlsO have been written.
 Among the early arrivals was Lem = uei Shaw, who was chief justice of Massac achusetts for thirty years. Here also lived William Eliery Charming Charles r. Adams, Enoch Train Ed win Booth Thomas Bailey Aldrich. Margaret DeiaHd. Mrs. A. D. Whitney and Louisa AIcotti and of course many other celebrated people.
 It was the fashionable part of the city in those days. and the houses must have been magnificent, with their carved doors and windows. On most of the doors are heavy brass or iron knockers. beau ttfuiiy designed. one of them representing a spread eagle.
 Many of these houses have been made into business block~ and lodging h houses. and it seems y to see them so, sadly neglected.
