BURTON At
CHAMBER

Fl. A. Burton. representative Of the
Indiana State Chamber of Commerce as
ISOLATION. talked before group of EaS>
Chicago men at the Chamber of Com
merce rooms yesterday afternoon.
The talk constituted a resume of the
plans that the state organization has I'M
der way for a statewide "own your
home" campaign 10 begin on Monday.
March "a.
Full Speed Ahead" is the popular
slogan among business interests today.
Ii is believed that readjuStment will
wait just as lCng as people Will wait
for IL. The conclusion has generally
been reached that business life from now
on must go forward on a now level Of
costs and prices and that it Is the
height of folly 10 expect any material
reductions.
As Irving Fisher OF Tale university
says: Business men should face facts.
To talk rovently Of 1913-13 prices Is to
speak a dead language. The buyers OF
the country. since the armistice. have
made an unexampled attack on prices
through their waiting attitude and yet
price concessions have been insignificant
The new price level will be found a
stubborn reality and business men are
going to find out that the clever man il
not the one who waits but the one who
finds out the new price facts and acts
accordingly"
The open meeting at Indianapolis on
Monday the cath will be a big one filled
TO the brim with interesting facts on
building homes An effort is being made
to induce at least eight East Chicago
men to ask for reservations at the Mon
day evening dinner.

JANUARY MEETING OF CLUB NO, 2

Dear Social Corner Sisters: With
joyful anticipation I presume that
many of the Social Corner friends had
planned to attend the first meeting of
the year at Buckingham Memorial,
Jan. list. The weather was certainly
very dampening to the ardor of even
a Social Cornerite.
At 10 o'clock, the time for me to
take the car for the place, it was
raining and the wind was blowing too
hard for an umbrella to be of much
use, so I reluctantly gave up all hope
of going, as there was no II o'clock
car, and the Il o'clock car would be
so late that the decorated fruit cake
| had all ready to carry would be too
late for the dinner. But at half past
IL, as the car came by on its way to
Central Village, | discovered that it
was not raining, although very damp
and threatening to rain again. l i'm
mediately began to get ready to go,
saying that I could be ready before
the car came back, and it did not be-
gin to rain before l started I would
venture to go, making all speed pos
sible. I was ready and at the station
one minute before the car was, with
out getting wet. The car was crowd
ed, several standing, but a young gen
tleman stranger insisted on my taking
his seat, for which I was very thank
full
At Jewett City there were enough
passengers waiting to have filed an
other car Oh, the crowding, but ev-
erybody was good natured and seemed
to try to make the best of everything.

ORIGIN oE OLD GLORY

Dear Social Cornerites: After read
ing Dom Pedros letter about Our Flag
l thought Of a clipping l cut from a
paper some months ago which fitted
in with her letter, so send it. thinking
it might interest someone as it did
ne:
William Driver, a Salem, Mass. sea
captain. IS said to have first applied
Old Glory to the Stars and StI.ipes.
In December. 1881, as he was about 10
set sail from Salem on the brig
Charles Doggett. bound for the South
Sea- Islands. he was presented bv
friends with a handsome flag. When
the colors were hoisted to the hal
yards, Captain Driver exclaimed:
There is Old Glory
Those VINO heard the remark re-
peated II, the newspapers took it up.
and the name spread over the land.
After many wild adventures, includ-
ing clash With cannibal islanders of
the South Seas, Captain Driver re-
turned to America and decided to set
tie down.
He chose Nashville as his place of
residence, and when the Civil war
broke out he was one of a very few
adherents OF the Union cause in the
, Tennessee capital. The flag which he
iI1d N'lileu Clt NIlOfy ne nad CarefullN
preserved, and when he displayed il
from the window of his house it was
fired upon and riddled with bullets.
The retired skipper decided that Old
Glory was not popular in Nashville at
that time and put it away until the
federals had taken Nashville. Can
tain Driver presented Old Glory to
General Nelson, who raised it over the
| state capitol. After the war the flag
was presented to the Essex institute
in Boston, where it is now carefully
preserved"
There were two little mistakes in
my last letter, owing without doubt t.
my poor penmanship. It should have
read Peanut Brittle instead Of Butter
and one word was left out-"and wher
| cold, instead of when cold" I was
afraid someone might infer they were
| to let the syrup get co1d first.
Wish a happy and prosperous wear
| to ALL Most cordially.

DOMESTIC HELPS,

Dear Social Cornerites: Some Of
these tips for home use may be new to
you:
scalloped Goldfish and rice is deli
cious.
Excellent pancakes are made of rye
meal.
Cream adds to the food value o.
baked apples.
The standard measuring cup holds
one-half pint.
Beat d cake batter as little as pos
Sible after flour has been put into mix
turc.
Freshly made jelly has finer fla
Vor than that which has stood for 4
long time.
A maple sugar sauce is excellent for
buildings and waffles.
Try whipping cream in small glass
globes such as are used for gold fish.
II does not spatter.
Prunes stuffed with stiff orange
narmalade are good.
Nuts should always be considered
as fats when used in meal.
A kitchen table having little slid
ing castOrs saves many steps.
Substitute mixtures should be baked
more slowly and longer.
Honey should be kept in a warm,
even hot place.
In cakes and pudd1ngS one does not
have to use so much sugar if raisins
: are used.
! There is little fat in fruit, but ap-
! pies contain more than any other
sort.
Clean bacon fat may be used in
combination with butter to make white
| sauces.
With all our work and saving let US
! remember to eat unhur-ied and cheer
| ful meals.
| When cooking honey keep an ashes
| tos mat under the saucepan, otherwise
| it may burn.
! Save every scrap of soap and fill a
| four by two-incil bag with it. Make
! the bag of two thicknesses of worn
gGuze underwear. When one lot of
| bits is used there will be more ready
to refill the bag.
| Dissolve an ounce of camphor gum
| IL two ounces of kerosene and apply
to your bunion freely. You will be
surprised to find how quickly it takes
| the pain out.
/ Painting them with iodine, to which
Il little glycerine has been added. is
another treatment In the meantime,
see that you wear easy shoes with a
pad or felt under the big toe joint
| to prevent any friction.

NEW YEAR's THOUGHTS.

Dear Sisters of the Social Corner:
This morning I am reminded this is
the last letter to The Corner this year
TO be received on the threshold of the
New Year. This day the sun will set
for it's last time in 1918, and with its
twilight shadows, fade away. Many
sad and also happy moments have
come to each and all of us during the
preceding twelve months. Many
we should: tat numerous items OF
Importance which canaot be erased
will linger with Us in Joy.
There are certain days that come to
us only once in a lifetime whose an
Eiversary is dear to think of.
As l was reading over the first let
ter in the Social Corner column of
last weeks Bulletin entitled 1.-THE Joy
and Sorrow of Motherhood, signed
Peace" ! thought she had expressed
some beautiful truths, and I was i'm
pressed with her sentiments. looked
back to that memorable day when tiny
eyes were opened and little voice was
heard for the first time within my own
home circle. Today is the anniver-
sary Of the birth of a son. who has
experienced a few years of life, bu1
none more important to him than the
last two: and today, as he stands on
a foreign shore. Just waiting his turn
to come across, | feel he mas contrib
uted his share, for the welfare of the
world Just ahead.
Again, ] repeat. these memorable
days, especially to a mother, are mile
stones along The way; wher5 we pause
10 rest. and think over the past.
! received cards and Christmas
greetings from Corner Sisters, whom
| wish to sincerely thank: and to each
enc | express my appreciation fer thei,
kind remembrance. I regret I do moi
know each one personally and hope
fer an opportunity to increase my ac-
quaintances. | wish YOU all a very
happy and prosperous New Year ant
hope health may abide with you. and
that YOU may profit rom all adver.

after all nothing was in vain.

Does that whispering, gurgling rill
Remind you he's out in the rain?
