1T is NEEDED BY ALL

~ HE federal employment
VI service has been almost
put out of action by the
hold up of the agricultural bill
by the senate filibuster and the
situation produced is one to ar
ouse anxiety in several quar-
ters.
There are excellent reasons
why the federal employment
service should be maintained
at all times. Ii provides a
means whereby a beneficial
service may be rendered to
both worker and employer.
The service is rendered with
out charge to anyone. The
bureau being in possession of
information from all parts of
the country is able to shift la-
Dor where needed and q when
needed. The service is free
from the graft and chicanery
that too often characterizes
private employment agencies.
If the service is permanently
discontinued the country will
pay the price. 1t is needless to
say that the work of restoring
army men to civil life viii be
made more difficult.
When the new congress con-
venes one of the first ssteps
should be to restore the feder-
al employment service to full
working efficiency. The need
of the service is obvious that it
is hard to see how any opposi-
ton can be raised.

Apple or crabapple jelly should ac-

A little cider or, failing that, strained

Then spread lightly with French
mustard (purchased in bottles) and
sprinkle with chopped cooked bacon and
minced pimontos.
For good on-alcoholic punch squeeze
into a mixing bowl four lemons and add
one cupful of sugar. one cupful Of cold

Give a Thought to the Finnan Haddie

dish. A dish made from the salted
and dried haddie is called "rizzared," F."
which is often spoken Of by Sir
Walter Scott in his Waverly Novels.
The finest Scotch haddie are caught
in Dublin Bay. The fish are cured,
or smoked, over peat fires at Find
horn, six miles from Aberdeen, and
this is the origin of the name finnan
haddie.
The haddie which we get here in
America are caught in local waters
and smoked daily at special smoke
houses constructed for the purpose
The smoking here is done over white
pine chips. The fish are at their
best when eaten as quickly after
smoking as possible. The largest
fish rarely weigh over 3A pounds.
To American taste those which
are salted and dried are not as good
as the smoked, and are not likely to
compete with our salted cod.
Many of US see haddies in the fish
mems windows and think we might
take one home if we knew how to
cook it. But, guessing they are

.HE chief virtue of this vacuum

THE chief virtue of this vacuum
cleaner is it's most efficient
motor-driven brush, which
goes so fast that you cannot see it,
like it's cousin, the electric fan, and
does thorough work, picking up at
single sweep lint and threads tram
pied into a thick carpet. Without
the brush the lint was not removed
at all, even after repeated trials
The brush is easily removable for
cleaning (it took our engineer only
fifteen seconds to take it out), and
there was no appreciable difference
in the operating cost with the brush
in action, which shows excellent
construction.
This machine weighs fourteen
and one-half pounds, which is
medium weight as compared with
others which range from 91a to 20
pounds. 1t moves on two 3 Is inch
ruooer- tired rear wheels and the
three transverse bars that raise the
aluminium polished shoe or nozzle

of 1-16 inch between the shoe and

over heavy carpet was removed
in one sweep of the machine; when
the -four was rubbed into the carpet
three single strokes were needed to
remove it, For hardwood floors. the
brush tool should be used to keep
the bars from marking the surface.
AS to construction, the machine
has horizontal motor (to be pre-
ferred for wearing Qualities), with
an eight -bladed sheet steel fan. The

A Mile Of Energy in a Caramel

deplored, as the eating of
more fish would be an economic aid

Of the red mullet. Lucullus had
canal cut through a mountain so
that fish might be transported more
easily to the ponds in his gardens
