SPENCER ANSWERS WILSON'S
 DENIAL OF OFFER
Declares President Saild He Would Send Armies to
 Europe

St. Louis, Oct. 5-United States Senator Selden P. Spencer, late to- day replied to President Wilson's denial that he had promised Ameri can military assistance to Roumania and Serbia in event of invasion of those coutries. The presidents de- nial was provoked by recent ad- dress of MT. Spencer in which the senator in effect, declared the pres ident had made such promise.
 The senator's reply in part fol- lows:
 q beg to acknowledge receipt of your telegram of October 5, in which you deny that you promised Ameri- can military aid to Roumanians and Serbs and that the previous denial, which MT. J. P. Humility had made was at you request. The statement of yours to which I have often re- ferred is my addresses was the statements in the stenographic notes of the eighth plenary session of the peace conference in which you are re- ported to have said to Premier Bra tiano of Roumania as follows:
 You must not forget that it is force that is the final guaranty of the public peace. If the world is again troubled the United States will send to this side of the ocean their army and their fleet
 "The statement was made upon the floor of the senate on February I2, 1920 by Senator Reed and so far as I have learned has never been de- Inied until now. It has been widely circulated over the United States. If you did not make that statement to Premier Bratiano I should be in- debted if you will be good enough to

USE FOR PAPER NAPKINS.

Dear Sisters of the Social Corner: There was good advice in a letter in the Corner recently about not using linen or cotton handkerchiefs during the prevalent grip colds and infiuen- "a, expecting to wash them or have them washed. The writer advised in- stead the use of soft old rags, or pa per, or better. paper napkins, all of which could be burned ,as a precau- tion against contagion.
 There can be DO doubt that much of the infection in homes where there are several cases of colds or coughs results from the old-fashion custom of patient using the ordinary han ky, which is frequently left lying about until Iaundered with a promis- cuous lot of other articles or gar mentS.
 For twenty cents. one can buy 100 paper napkins, to be rubbed gently between the hands until made soft and creaseless, then used in the place of the ordinary handkerchief; the sheets of soft paper can be burned as soon as discarded by the person who is i'll, and that is the end of any possible danger.
 Several hundred of such packages of napkins should be added to the first aid kit-no matter how simple it may be-in every household. A half dollar or a dollar invested in such a supply will prove well spent

BoARDERs NEEDN'T sEeipLE.

Social Corner Readers: II wonder how many members of the Corner have at some time or 3other felt a bit out of patience at those who are continually telling about having nothing to do because they board and therefore make hard time of it try ing to do nothing. t.-.
 There is no reason for a healthy human being to be idle. She might join an organization that is interest ed in charitable work or activities relating to civic welfare in it's va rious branches. She could devote considerable time to the cultivation of her mind Pleading onlysa novel once in a while" proves that field to be pretty well covered with weeds.
 Just because a woman boards is no excuse for idleness. In fact it should be an incentive to work, A little wo- man of my acquaintance who boards at g. fashionable hotel makes all of her husbands. shirts. She saves half the price on each garment by mak- ing them herself, she tells me. She ripped up a shirt that was a good fit srnoothed 1t out, cut a pattern from it and went to work with most grati- flying success. 'But I don't know how to sew" is no excuse.
 There are plenty of ways of learn ing how to sew and make clothes fl there Is the inclination to learn.

PREPARED FLOUR.

Dear Editor and Social Corner Sis ters: I am wondering how you all are this rainy day. Yes, it is raining, al- though it tried to snow last evening. Surely this is an old fashioned winter. Where is Auntie NO. l? Haven't seen letter from her for some time. Do write and tell us about your plants. For two winters now I've been unable to have any on account of the gas range and lights in my kitchen, so I will be interested to read about any sisters plants, also hens and chickens.
 I wonder how many sisters buy the prepared flour? am going to take the liberty to send you a recipe. I al- ways thought I could not do without it, but it is more expensive every time I buy it. So I tried this and tested it thoroughly and know you will also like it.
 Prepared Fiour-I put one heaping quart of pastry flour in my sieve, put four even teaspoons cream tartar and two even teaspoons of soda and two heaping teaspoons of salt. Sift sev- eral times and you have as fine a pre- pared flour as can be bought. I put it in a two quart fruit jar and it makes the jar about two-t thirds full. It is so hand. I had unexpected com pany the other night and I just made up pan of biscuits in jiffy that would melt in your mouth. Hope the sisters will try it and report to

Dear Sisters Of The Corner: The poor, disliked mother-in- law, the butt of minstrel and almanac jokes, has fared rather hard, since the writer signing herself Engaged Girl asked ad-. vice as to the wisdom of marrying a man too devoted to his mother.
 Maybe it would interest The Cor nerites to hear about a beautiful home which I visited not so long agc,s in which the. mother-in- law is as fond of her daughter =in-law as she is of her only son. and only cnild, In fact if any little matter comes up in which the mother has to decide, iteseer1ed to me that she really took the part of the wife against the young hdsband.a Of course these saispates s5w.ere1 nothing serious: but this particular mother did nos appear to think her sens all angel, nor to act as though he had made an awful mistake in marrying anybody but an angel.

 Let the farmers, small and great, go on tilling the soil. yes, all the soil he possesses, putting aside his bitterness because things are not just to his lik- ing, remembering only the cause Of humanity, leaving his reward with his Maker, who, we are taught, sees and knows all things accord ingly.
 Not only does this apply to the farmers, but it applies to all those who go to make up the roots of this country.
 Let the prohteer. the striker. forsake his way.
 Some business men have undoubted- ly woke up to the fact that money is flowing into their coffers as never be- fore. They have accepted the fact and are branching out and buying homes such as in their widest dreams they never expected to own. Why? Because conditions are what they are Someone must rise, and by the same token someone must fall. He who is the lucky fellow, if so he considers himself in the. face of all this--has his fine home. surrounds himself with luxury. while his brother across the water ties on his shoes with rags and must go mourning the remainder oi his life for home, wife and children. Again, ask you, is it nothing to yoT and you and you who pass by?
