United States department of agricul-

cultural college, are able to put to
practical use what they have learned
in the clubs about buying, cooking and
serving food, their leaders have organ
lied supper clubs"
These clubs meet twice a month at
the local leaders, home. At the first
meeting Of the month well-balanced
meal is planned with the help Of the
leader. Each girl is assigned certain
part Of the meal, for which she is re-
SpOnsIble.
At the second meeting she brings the
material and prepares, cooks and
serves her part of the supper. Adults
are asked to these suppers, and the in
vitat,ons are highly priced. The usual
menu consists of meat, potatoes, one
vegetable, hot bread, sometimes salad,
dessert, and a hot drink. SO far the
average cost per person served has
been "a to 20 cents.
After the meal the club girls meet
In a group and discuss and criticize
the various articles on the menu and
the serving. This constructive Crlti-
cism has been found to be very valu-
able In making each supper a little
better in every way than the preceding
one.

Greens of all kinds, both wild or cul-
uyated, are well liked by most people
and are valuable food in the human
dietary. If more we're eaten there
would be less need of resorting to the
doctor.
When the various kinds Of green's
are young, tender and at their best,
some should be canned for use during
the winter. OF the wild greens the
dandeliOn is the most common. Among
the cultivated green's are Swiss chard,
kale. Chinese cabbage leaves, French
endive, cabbage sprouts, turnip tops,
young tender New Zealand spinach,
dandellon, young tender dasheen
sprouts, native mustard, Russian mus
tard. collards and tender rape leaves.
All possess iron and other needed min
eral substances, and are nearly as de-
liciOus when canned as when fresh.
The following directions for canninE
greens are given by the United States

HOUSEWIFE OF TODAY

She is Checking Up Weights and
Measures of Products.
Decreased Buying Power Of Dollar
Makes Her Think and Avoid All

in Many Ways. An
leel

The modeFn housewife IA becs~hns
expert in buying. She Is reading the
labels, in accordance with the sugges-
ton made by the United States de-
partment Of agriculture, and checking
up the weights and measures of the
food products she buys. She has
learned when to buy In quantity and
when in small amount, and when it is
more economical to buy in bulk than in
package. Many have compared the
cost Of making bread at home and Of
buying it and are choosing the way
that is best for them.
The lessened buying power Of the
dollar has made her think and avoid
all kinds Of waste. The family must
be kept we'll nOurlshed, but the wife
and mother should not provide more
food than is needed. She must know
what kind of food will fill her market
basket to the best advantage. Along
with this knowledge is that of how
much of the family food should come
from each food group and how far it
Is wise to save money by using more
food from the less expensive groups.
The housewife Of today is keeping
food account and checks up her weekly
buying by the plan she has made.
IL she wishes to try to lessen prices
for everybody here are some of the
ways she is going at 1t: BY producing
food at home; by using local products ;
by choosing food that is plentiful in
the markets; 10y lessenlng her use Of
such foods as are scarce; by co-opera-
tive buying; and by using the parcel

JONES WILL HOLD UP
WILSON SHIP BOARD
Senator Believes Men Should
Be Named by Harding.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 20. - Announce
ment that he would oppose confirmation
of all appointments to the Shipping
Board made recently by President Will
son was made to-day by Senator Jones
of Washington, chairman of the Senate
Commerce Committee.
II shall do all in my power to pre-
vent their confirmation he said. when
the Shipping bill was passed it was my
hope and desire that the President
would appoint the board Immediately
and start its important work. Instead
of doing that the President waited four
or five months, until after election, and
appointed some men who arc inexperi-
enced and unfit. although some of the
appointees are good men.
Under the circumstances think
President Harding should have a free
hand in naming the board and for the
direction Of its policy. and l shall do all
in my power to prevent confirmation of
the appointees named by President Will
son."
In addition to the Shipping Board
nominations many other appointments
of President Wilson probably will be
held up. according to Republican Senate
leaders who are returning here for the
session next month. Some expressed
doubt that any nominations would get
through the Senate. The practice of re-
fusing confirmation to appointments by
retiring Presidents has been general in
the past by both parties, 1t was stated.
