screen in many picture shows, he said,
That it is high time for the nation to
wake up and cut out the obscene and
degrading pictures and place the drama
and movie business upon a higher
standard. After the service we made
q short call on Mr. and Mrs. Albin
Mattson, former Warrenites, Mr.. Matt
son being son of Rev. a. Mattson, a
former pastor at Warren, and his wife
was formerly Miss Lille Trip, we'll
known Warren girl. We also met at
their home Mr.. Christensen, who was
in the cement construction business in
Warren some years ago. He and Albin
Mattson are following the same bust
ness now and are doing well. We spent
the next day (Monday) looking over
the business district at our leisure and
in the evening were invited to the home
ioof Mr.. and Mrs. Peter Gillies for dinner
Mrs. Gillies was Miss Annie Swanson
Before she married, former pupil Of
ours in the Dahlquist district in War
rentOn and also at Hope Academy,
where we subsequently taught. Mr.. and
Mrs. Gillies have beautiful home on
one of the finest residence streets of
the city. 1t is needless to say that we
were most kindly aand generously enter
tanned by these good people. We feast
ed on big, luscious cherries of several
varieties, grown on their own farm in
the country, to our hearts content, until
every nook and crevice Of the elmer
man" was filed up and there wasn't
room for another cherry to go down.
Thanks, dear friends, for your kind
ness. On the following day, July 20, we
went out to visit Mr.. and Mrs. Carl
Lindh, former Warren resident, but
found them. not at home. We saw
their large and fine residence from the
outside, however, and from this we
infer that they have prospered. -

TO ISSUE WARRANTS
TO HELP RAILROADS
Federal Government Will Take This
Method of Providing Funds to
Meet Running Expenses.

WASHINGTON, March 'l2-Issuanct
of federal warrants for amounts due rail
road corporations probably will be the
method employed by the railroad admins
tration to meet the situation caused by
the failure of congress to pass the rail
road appropriation bill. This was dis
closed by Director General Hines yester
day at a conference with prominent rail
road executives
These warrants, virtually certificates o.
Indebtedness, would not be cashed unit
congress appropriates funds at the mex
session, but would serve as collateral fol
loans. The loans would be arranged by
each railroad company individually witt
its bankers, or in special cases with the
war finance corporation.
A special finance committee of seven
headed by Howard Elliott, president o
the Northern Pacific, was created by tn,
railroad executives to cooperate with gov
eminent agencies as clearing house fol
financial arrangements.
Other members of the committee ar,
Albert Ill. Harris, vice president Of tn,
New York Central; Robert S. Lovett
president of the Union Pacific; Samue
Rea, president of the PENNSYLVANIA; Hen
~ Ruhlender, president of the Frisco
Henry Walters, chairman. of the Atlantis
Coast Line, and Daniel Willard, presi
dent of the Baltimore & Ohio
Alfred p Thorn will be counsel of tn,
special finance committee, and George VI
Schriver, vice president of the Baltimor
Ohio, will be in charge of the. accounts

THRIFT TO BECOME FAD.

Camoufage dishes had bit of favor

quite possible to prepare leg of mutton
so that it resembles duck, nut loaf

salad, and numerous other dishes of this
kind. To the writer, however, this seems
fundamentally unsound. These are al
ways used to create false impression
OF what one is about to be served. While
we may marvel at the skill displayed
in creating these limitations, we are sure
to be more or less disappointed with
the flavor or texture of the imitation.

Armour & Co. This style of cookery,
so obviously based on false premise.

for novelty. however, and recipes for
any number of camoufage dishes will
be furnished upon request.
Thrift in American cookery is to be a
real fad for the next year. This will
require the knowledge of how to make
eggless cakes and buildings when eggs
are high, lDw to use various protein
foods to save meat during the period of
excess demand and high cost to produce
meat, how to extend meat or fish flavor
by the combination of small quantity
of the protein food with some cereal
as to provide bountiful, nourishing, tasty
servings at low cost
Casserole cookery is most popular in
this connection. 1t also makes possible
the satisfactory use of all left-overs
Unless the cook is quite an expert al
deep frying the casserole style of flavor
extending is much to be preferred to th,

A letter written in France under date
of Feb. 23 and which has just been
received by Mr.. and Mrs, Ralph w.
Cudworth of Horton place from their
son, Private William H. Cudworth
of Company e, l0lst ammunition train,
tells of a review of the 26th division
by General Pershing and stating that
without doubt the review would be
seen on the screen some day, as three
moving picture camera men were on
the field. The letter, which was CEN
sored by Captain Roy b. Miner, fol-
lows:
Dear Mother and Father:
Will now settle down and write you
a few lines. Everything is going
along we'll and am in the best of health.
We are still located in the same place
which l mentioned in my last letter.
1t is Lavernat by name, near the town
Of Mayet.
Our time is taken up during the day
with plenty of infantry and in the
afternoon we have a few sports TO
take up the time. We have been drill
ing for different reviews. We have
had several regimental reviews lately
and last Saturday we partook in the re-
view of the whole Goth division.
1t sure was fine sight to see,
Every outfit in the whole division,
with the exception of one regiment,
were present The review was held on
large rifle range and it sure did need
a large range to hold all the troops.
Gen. Pershing and his staff inspected
and reviewed the division. Gen. Hale
was in command of the division. No
doubt but what you will see this re-
view on the screen. There were three
machines on the field taking it all in.
We have been loafing along now for
the last week and yesterday being
Washington s birthday we went over to
the rest of the regiment anS held q field
meet The day was taken up with
races, tug of war, and n few other
sports.
About our home coming. The time set
for sailing seems to grow farther and
farther away instead Of nearer. W.

portation is what is holding us here.

anyway.
Took short vacation from the com
pany and went to fairly large town
and spent the weekend. 1t sure did
seem good TO break away from the
daily routine for q short time. My
