The principal reason for the surplus
is the shutting off at night WORK by All

night forces in the day shift. l'It day
labor received less monev, thus caus-

DIVISION
STILL HELD AT BREST.
Carolina Boys to be Landed at Char
lesion, But Sailing Date Not KNOWN.
-Many requirements in Battle
Scared Old Unit.

Washington, JAN, 1.-THE war de-
'partment is unable to say just when
the Thirtieth Division will sail from
Brest for the United States but it will
be soon. Secretary Baker told Sena-
tor Pollock, Of South Carolina. today
that they would be landed at Charles
ton. He also stated that the Tenness-
ee men of the division would he SEM
to OglethOrpe for rehabilitation and
the South Carolina and part of the
North Carolinians may go to Camp
Greene. While Secretary Baker made
this statement to Senator Pollock,
army officers told Senator Simmons
Office that it is impossible to say just
when the Thirtieth will start for home
and where the men will disembark or
be demobilized. Immediately upon the
sailing Of the division there will be
called a list Of the soldiers who corr
pose it and then final arrangements
for landing and rehabilitation will be
made. This seems to be the correct
version.
There has been lots of requirements
in the Thirtieth and many of the men
there now did not come from North
Carolina, Tennessee and South Caro-
lima.

RADIATOR GASKET Is
ALTERED FOR WINTER
Necessary to Cover Hood of Car
During Severe Weather.
Simple Change in Gasket at Overflow
Pipe Is Nearly as Effective as
Thermostatic VaIVe-How to
Determine Size.

Motorists realize the necessity of
covering the radiator and hood of an
automobile in the winter months, be-
cause the rapid radiation of the heat
results in inefficient operation. A
thermostatic valve set in the outflow
pipe of the water system is used In
many motors for cold weather. A sim
pie change in the gasket at the outflow
pipe, connecting the water jackets to
the radiator, is nearly as effective as
the thermostatic valve. 1t has an adj
vantage in saving the nonfreezing so
luton, commonly employed, from rap
idly boiling away, as often happens
where the radiator is covered and
maintained in heated condition. The
change in the gasket is merely in the
substitution of one having q smaller
opening. A gasket of one-half the nor
NAL area was used on a % horsepower
motor with excellent results. The
proper size for the engine on which it
is to be used can be best determined
by experimenting, q gasket with a
small opening being first set into the

USEFUL KITCHEN EQUIPMENT
Sink and Work Tables Are Important
Factors In Woman's WeIl-Doing-
Right Height.

prepared by the United States Depart

The height of woman's Kitchen
sink and work table are important fac
tors In her well-being and well-doing.
She can't do as much or as good work
and feel well and strong with her sink
and table so low that she has to bend
over to work, or so high that she has
to ''reach up," as she would were they
the proper height. AS general rule,
81 to SO inches from the floor is the
height for general work tables, and
the bottom of = sink should usually
be 80 to 81 inches from the floor, the

States department. OF agriculture sug-
gests. Howev9r, each woman ought
to find out fortherself the height Of
the table at which she can'work most
easily and efficiently, and see that her
work table and sink are adjusted ac-
cordingly. Legs which are too long
can be cut off, and those too short
can be raised by blocks under them.

Lamb can be one Of the most de-
licious varieties of meat or it can be
one of the most distasteful, according
to it's quality and the way it Is pre-
pared before and during cooking.
Plenty of people, who formerly had
classed lamb among the foods they dis
liked, have learned to like it when 1t
was prepared properly. The strong
mutton flavor so Objectionable to many
is located principally In the thin mem
branous skin and outer fat of a cut
of lamb or mutton. A sharp knife will
take it off easily. Epicures declare
that a good leg of lamb with this skin
and the superfiuous fat removed,
rubbed with butter and roasted, cam
not be exceIled in the meat line for
delicacy of favor.
How to Know Good Lamb.
If the consumer wants to know the
grade of lamb he is buying, there are
few cardinal points to observe, the
bureau Of markets, department of ag-
riculture, points out. Keeping them in
mind will lessen the chances of disap-
pointment over the quality of the cut
when it is served.
The points by which the several
grades of lamb may be determined af-
ter the carcass has been divided into
cuts are not so pronounced as in beef.
The grade must largely be determined
by the thickness and compactness OF
the meat and by the color of the lean
meat.
The 'choice" grade represents the
highest quality of mGat offered. The

lean meat is of a plnkish color and the
fat is uniform, white and brittle. The
cuts of meat are thick and compact
and have a fair percentage of fat. The
bones are small and inclined to be
soft.
The 'good' grade resembles "choice"
in most respects but may lack some OF
the essential points. The amount OF
fat may be less and it may not be so
evenly distributed The color OF the
lean meat is the same as in Choice,
but in each case the retail cut OF neat
must show that the animal was in a
weIl-nourished condition at the time Of
slaughter. This is indicated by the
firmness Of the meat and. a liberal
amount of fat. ...
The Lower Grades.
The medium grade represents the
next lower quality, and the principal
point which determines this grade is
lack of outside and inside fat. The
lean meat has q dull appearance and
lacks the firmness found in the two
higher grades. The lean meat also
frequently has a watery appearance.
The bones are usually small but the
percentage of meat is much lower than
in the better grades.
The common" grade is the lowest
grade usually found in the markets.
The meat has every appearance of the
animal having been poorly fed. The
bones are prominent and the percent
age of meat is very small. The almost
entire lack of fat is strikingly notice
able. The small percentage of lean
meat has a flabby appearance and is
duh in color.

HAIR RIBBONS MADE
TO APPEAR LIKE new
One of Suggestions Made in Re-
cent Thrift LeafIet.
Spread on Hard Surface and Go Over
1t With Brush or Sponge Dipped
In Lueewarm Water and
Little Mild Soap.

(Prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of AgricultuTe)
Ribbons cost two or three times
what they formerly did, and the life OF
Alice's hair ribbon seems very short
these days to her thrifty mother. No
matter how fresh and dainty the dress
of a little girl, if it is topped with a
soiled and wrinkled hair ribbon her
whole appearance is spoiled. In a Sc
ries Of thrift leaflets issued jointly by
the United States department of ag-
riculture and the United States treas
ury, one of the directions which will
leave the fabric looking like new is
given for cleaning ribbons.
Spread the ribbon fiat on smooth,
hard surface, such as q table top or
q marble slab. With sponge or a
soft brush go over 1t with lukewarm
water in which a little mild soap has
been dissolved. With hair ribbons, If
the portion which comes in contact
with the hair is greasy and the stains
difficult to remove, dip the brush in
a little ammonia water and rub that
portion of the ribbon. Rinse the ribbon
by holding it stretched between the
hands and passing It through bowl
Of clear, 1ukewarm water.
Do not wiring or crease, but dry by
spreading it out straight and fiat on
a smooth, hard surface. Particular
care should be taken with the edges
of the ribbon in order to make them
as straight as when new. Draw the
hand gently over, the ribbon to press
out air bubbles which may have formed
under it, and which win make it ap-
pear ''blistered'' when dry.
