WHAT TO EAT
NEXT WEEK
BY eIooY DYE.

There Is something OF question
In the minds Of housekeepers-those
who are thoroughly converted to the
weekly menu system, as TO whether
It is wiser to go to market first or
make the menus first and then mar
ket to fit them. Which is the most
economical and easiest? II one goes
the market first one can buy the fruit
vegetables, and staple supplies which
happen to be the cheapest that day
and season-and use them to good
advantage in the menus planned lat
er. On the other hand, If the menus
are planned first and the marketing
is done with the menus in hand 1t
will be easy to buy exactly what is
needed and no more. The ideal COM
bination seems to be to KNOW the
local market news as we'll as possible,
by observation and by study Of the
daily market news and price lists,
then to make the menus according to
that knowledge Of the markets, and
later go shopping, armed with both
menus and market knowledge.

Education is truly the bulwark OF
! liberty, if it is the right kind Of edu-
cation. That which is supervised and
! guided by the public schools OF this
! nation can be relied upon to uphold
! the traditions, the institutions and tht
| government Of this country.
knowledge of our country and our
| people gained from our public schools
is sound. and the men, women and
children who have absorbed that
knowledge are not easily shaken from
their convictions or swept off Their
feet by the hurrah of various so-callea
political PHILOSOPHERS.
They are right-thinking because
their education is founded in right
thinking, their training has been Or
derly, their discipline proper, their
ideas of life leberal.
To the public-school system may b.,
traced the solid character of this gov
ernment.
Therefore, the natural agency to d.
rect the education of the foreign
born who desire to become citizens of
this nation is the public school.
tion bureau of the United States De-
partment OF Labor selected the public
schools of the country to conduct, it's
courses in citizenship training among
the foreign born. In every commun-
ity of the land the bureau has ar
ranged with the public school officials
to open their classes to suit the con-
venience of these foreign-born petit
TONERS for citizenship. And there ar3
thousands of them.
Trained in American ideals, under
standing American thought and grasp
ing the American attitude of justice,
the souls of these thousands can be
awakened to the patriotic spirit nec~
essary in good citizens by the teach
ing of those chosen by the people.
Left to their own conceptions OF
America, gained through the inspira-
tion of the enemies of order, these
thousands can be made public men,
ace.
Hence the government and the
public schools are links that are wont
to sweep the world in tempests OF
mans fury born in injustice and nur-
tured by violence.
The bureau of naturalization is the
anchor which keeps the chain taul
and holds the ship of state firm
against the storms that lash about it.
This bureau is the friend Of the
foreign born, for it provides the op-
portunity for him to learn the trut,
about his adopted country, by arrang-
ing for opening the schools to him. by
supervising his training, by guiding
him along the right path to good
citizenship.
The benefits of this great under
taking of the naturalization bureau
are more than national, they are uni

TRYING T0.BLUFF
PRESIDENT WILSON

Comes the news from Washington,
persistent like, that President Wilson's
closest friends are combining to urge.
him to forego the political fallacy OF
making a. speaking tour of'the United
States for the purpose of enlightening
the people upon the inner workings
of the Peace treaty and the League
of Nations, subjects upon which no
man in the world is better posted than
President. Wilson.
1t would be interesting to know
who these "closest friends"- are, but
the news dispatches failed utterly to
go into further detail.
The reason for the failure of the
story is that no such a condition ex-
ists-except in the minds of the re-
publican bolsheviki that can easily see
an explosion of some of their politi-
cal plans as soon as President Wilson
has a. chance to talk directly to the
multitude.
The people Of the nation want to
hear from President Wilson-the
forem ost man of the world today.
They want the truth, which will never
reach them through the ordinary news
sources, and for reasons that are
only too apparent to those at all ac-
quainted with the methods of opera
ton being used and attempted by
the republican politicians who are
putting forth their every effort in
their power to discredit President Will
son.
But President Wilson, despite the
advice Of his "closest friends" viii
talk direct to the people and they
will then have a. full understanding ;
of the part this nation has taken in
arranging the Treaty of Peace and il
the formative plans of the League of
Nations, and the exact meaning of
each.
President Wilson can't be bluffed by
any such flimsy blazer as that
Mesaba Ore.

A WORD OF WARNING,

A Chicagoan, writing to the Chicago
Tribune, after visit to the soldiers
hospital at Fort Benjamin Harrison to
see his wounded son, made a pertinent
observation it would be well for those
who are trying to make political cap
ital out Of their opposition to the
League L Nations on the alleged
ground of Americanism to bear in
mind. He wrote:
'There are about 1000 wounded SOL
diers (in the Fort Benjamin Harrison
hospitaD who saw service overseas.
While there, heard enough-from the
wounded soldiers-to convince me that
any man in public life who takes a
stand against the proposed League of
Nations will most assuredlv be retired
to private life. All the
wounded men with whom talked feel
that the President is trying to do some
thing for humanity. They know what
wsr really is, and are anxious for
universal peace. T. Talk to the
soldiers, more especially to those who
have been wounded or gassed, and
they viii tell: you, as they told me:
