PlTIfUL CONDITIONS; HELP

Reports presented at the meeting
Monday night for the relief OF the suf
fering in the German and Austrian
republics disclosed conditions among
the infants and children due to the
long blockade, bordering on the pitiful.
Malnutrition, ricketts,, stomach diseases
and general want are playing havoc
with these innocent victims OF the
great world war. So urgent is the cry
for help that the committee on depots
and forwarding, through its chairman,
Miss Marie Dramm, was authorized to
purchase outright 500 pounds OF matted
milk, and dispatch it to the Red Cross
at Hamburg for distribution among
the hospitals, orphan asylums, and
homes for invalids and the aged.
Through the efforts Of Mr.. William F.
Pnueger, one OF the large manufacuir-
ers of matted milk, have offered to
supply special quality of their pro-
duct suited for infants and invalids n
practically the cost OF manufacture.
Five pound screw top tins packed in
corrugated paper containers for export
shipment will be provided, ready to be
addressed and forwarded. The first
shipment is expected to leave Mantle
voc before the end of the week and
the various committees have been au-
thorized TO sell the milk at cost to per
sons desiring to make parcel post ship
ments to relatives and friends in the
stricken countries.
Depots for the collection of food and
clothing we're announced as being at
the following points:
NORTH SIDE
Red Cross Rooms, 9Th Street Bridge

WHY LAMB AND MINT SAUCE
Enqlish Writer Goes Far Back to
Trace Custom So Popular In
That Country.

Lamb Is the only meat with which
mint sauce Is partaken. and England is
the only country where the custom is
practced.
The latter fact seems to disprove the
idea that II originated with the Jews,
else II would have been adopted in
other countries where the race FREEDOM
mates TO an even greater extent than
I'm our own. Hence, also, 1t could not
have originated or been associated
with the bitter herbs" which were
eaten with the Paschal lamb.
When one remembers what are the
vegetables usually eaten with lamb, we
get a clue to mint sauce. And II Is
one that leads us to what Is probably
the true reason Of It's combination with
lamb. New potatoes and green peas
are the adjuncts immemorial time has
led us to associate with the flesh of
the lamb. These, our fOrbears de-
cldcd, were provocative of Indigestion,
and therefore an adjunct must be in
trOduced TO correct this tendency.
Mint during all ages has been asso.
ciated with such an Office. The Latin
poets have broken into song regarding
It's merits, and the glyer of feast
never thought of laying the meat on
the table until the boards had been
secured with this herb. SO, IN addi-
tion to being a corrective, mint had a
reputation as an appetizer. Gerarde
says, "The smell Of mint doth stir up
the mind and the tnste to greedy
desire Of meat."-London Tit-Bits,

sueet Potato.

1t Is not known certainly who intro
duced the sweet potato plant or when.
Some authorities believe II 10 be Of
East Indian origin, but others mors
likely hold that Il was native Of
tropical America.

tract from the law governing the

ters:
"Sec. 89.-Failure on the part Of
the overseer or contractor to main
tain in a passable condition, at all
seasons of the year, the highways
traversed by rural carriers will be
considered sufficient reason for the
withdrawal Of established service

withdrawn, but unless the roads are
maintained at all seasons Of the
year." as is required, it then becomes
our duty to report the same. and the
people on the routes may be depriv-

is squarely up to the people who want
this service to see that the roads are
maintained as is required by the
United States postal laws and regu-
lations. Respectfully,
