of the bureau.
Rumors Are Refuted.
There have been rumors which some
people have been busy in passing
along to the effect that bureaus for
aiding the soldiers and sailors to get
re-established in civil life were not do
Ing adequate work. To considerable
extent this sort of thing, It Is said,
has been propaganda for no good pur-
pose. So far as the district which has
Chicago for its headquarters is con-
cerned, the attested records which
show that 94.3 per cent of the appli-
cants have found work. speak for
themselves.
In the daily life of the bureau there
is much to be found of human interest.
OF the 43,345 men who registered
about 5000 asked for assistance along
lines other than that of employment.
They wanted to secure vocational
training, to be given information con-
cerning educational work, and in some
cases there were requests for clothing
and for temporary loans. Every case
was met. Out of the great number Of
men who applied at the bureau only
43S actually needed food. Between
| 5000 and 1000 of the men did not
know how to secure their bonuses
from the government. Every man was
told how to go at 1t and every man got
his money OF the applicants for as
sistance $500 have entered courses of
vocational training.
Much Of Interest.
The activities of the bureau as they
have gone on day by day are interest
ing to watch From the returned sol
diers and sailors one gets the after
the-war viewpoint The comments on
the war md its aftermath and the
conclusions which the men have drawn
show almost invariably thoughtful
consideration of the problems involved

When the retail meat dealer buys
from the wholesaler, he does not de-
pend altogether on the wholesale firms
honesty and good faith to secure the
grade of meat he wants for his trade.
Instead, keeping in mind certain points
and characteristics which determine
grades of beef, the retailer. before he
buys and pays for it, decides for him
self whether he has been given what
he ordered.
The housekeeper should be quite as
familiar as the butcher with the vari-
Gus grades of beef. Few housekeep-
ers, however. have this knowledge.
Even those women who pride them
selves that 'cotton mixed" is not sold

they know whether they have been
