MACARONI

In buying Macaroni the housewife
should be careful about insisting
on getting a well-known brand.
Macaroni should be kept in cool
place. Under proper conditions it
will remain good for a long time.
but it is not advisable to risk de-
terioration by laying in large
supply. In cooking, be careful to
put it into boiling and sailed
water Cold water will spoil tho
best Macaroni. The water must
be kept boiling for from 90 to 40
minutes until the Macaroni is
tender When dono, drain we'll
and season or dress to suit indi-
vidual tastes. The idea is to
have each tube thoroughly tender,
but each tube whole, separate and
without pastiness.

DY JOSEPHIS DANIELS,
Former Secretary Of the Navy.
ARTICLE is.


Admiral Kolchak failed to redeem
Russia from the bolsheviki. but he
made a brave effort. and for a time
held the worlds attention as the hope
and promise of a triumph for sanity
and constitutionalism over the mad
ness OF Lenin and his proletaTian die
tatorship.
The chance to win such fame as will
follow his memory in the annals OF
Russia he owed to an American ad-
mral.
And this is the story:
Admiral Kolchak commanded the
Black sea fleet. When the revolu-
tion swept Russia in March. 1917. the
sailors of the Baltic feet mutinied
assasSinated their commander-in-
chief. and brutally murdered abou,
100 officers. but the sailors of the
Black sea fleet remained loyal
The Black sea fleet remained a
cruising fleet in winter owing to the
open conditions in Black sea lati-
tudes: for this reason it's men were in
better frame of mind-they had less
confinement. less unoccupied leisure
and hence less occasion and oppor-
tunity for grumbling and growing
and getting disaffected.
Black Sea Men Mutiny.
Through the spring. and. indeed
until the middle of June. the Black
sea fleet remained loyal to the pro-
visional government, and it was a
formidable force.
But in June. 1917. a little group of
agitators from the Baltic fleet ar
rived in Sepastopol. and began to talk
Baltic ships were now wholly in the
control of committees of sailors; how
no officers had any right to order
them around. and how much happier
everybody was under the new sys-
tenn.
Admiral Kolchak was popular in the
Black sea fleet: his personality ex-
ercised a powerful influence over the
men: they were reluctant to mutiny
against him.
But the persuasions of the Baltic
agitators at last prevailed. June 20
the sailors of the Black sea fleet called
a meeting and adopted a resolution
deposing Admiral Kolchak and elect
Ing a commander-in- chief from their
own ranks.
what they had done he appeared on
the quarterback Of his flagship and
addressed the men.
1t was dramatic scene, and a tense
moment.
The admiral appealed to the men to
remain loyal in simple. but eloquent
language. He made his plea in the
name Of Russia and of the cause of
Justice and democracy for which she
was fighting with the allies and the
United States.
The men were moved, but not to
repudiate their action. They were
touched, but they stood by their pur-
pose.
Casts Sword Into Sea.
The admiral saw that it was in vain
to plead with them. There was moth
ing for him to do but to give up his
command. abandon his ship. leave the
fleet, in which he had taken lust
pride. to be managed by a committee.
But Kolchak, although surrender
ing, would not turn his sword over to
any representative Of these mutinous
sailors.
They demanded it. but he would not
give it.
Instead. drawing it from its scab-
bard he held it for single moment
in salute to the Russian flag. and
then. with a quick gesture, sent its
shimmering blade spinning through
the air and watched It fall into the
sea. . ...
There was a gasp from the sailors
