Great Sea Fighter Indignant.

Towards the close of the war with
the first French republic, when the
general distress was very sharp and
bread very dear-in 1900 the price of
a Quartern loaf in England rose to l
shilling and 10 pence half penny-a
curious fashion arose of giving dinners
In which the guests were asked to
bring their own bread. Nelson was in
vited to such dinner, but through
some oversight he had apparently not
been Informed of the conditions of the
feast.
At all events, when Nelson found
that there was no bread, he made
quite a little scene, called his serv,
ant and, before the whole company
gave him shilling and ordered him
to buy roll, saying aloud: sit is hard
after fighting my country's battles
should be grudged her bread"

waist. The embroidery has a narrow
edge, livened by colored dots, and the
wide plain portion is to be tucked with
a group Of narrow tucks.
To make the collar and jabot this

ing to straight piece of tucked
batiste. There is no shaping of the
collar to be taken care Of 1t is merely
a straight length sewed to the neck

the ends the full frills that form the

one Of the new, brilliant crinkly silks
or velvets and cut it by an overblouse
pattern, with either longer or shorter
sleeves, and use narrow silk braid or
ribbon for outlining important edges.

HEROES IN THEIR TEENS.

There are over 500 boys in the
United States who have received
medals for saving life at the rish of
their own.
1t did not require Boy Scout Move
ment to make boys heroic. But it
did seem to require that movement
to teach boys to be prepared to meet
emergencies in which heroism would
count for little without knowledge of
what to do. This week all are glad
to give thoufht to what the Scout
Movement is doing for our boys. How
many of US know what splendid rec
ord scouts have as life-savers, and in
meeting emergencies that threaten
life and property?
The truth is, it has become such a
matter Of fact thing to expect scouts
to help fight epidemics, floods, fires,
panics, that we forget that they are
boys who are doing these things. In
twelve years, boyhood in America has
been trained to give organized, intelli-
gent, efficient sedvice in combating
some Of worst foes to public safety.
The National Court of Honor of the
Boy Scouts of America, awards
special medals to scouts who risk their
lives trying to save others. In the
twelve years of Boy Scout history,
SAB such honor medals have been
awarded, and many letters of CON-
mendation in addition for heroic acts
involving lesser risk. These are in
dividual heroes. The list of Calami-
ties in which whole troops of scouts
have given heroic service in aiding
the authorities to relieve suffering
and prevent tn spread of danger, is
long one. The Toms River Explo-
sion, the Pueblo and the San Antonio
Floods, the Influenza epidemic of 1918
are merely examples. Our own Scouts
have met their opportunities in hero
ic fashion, and are daily preparing
themselves to meet others like heroes.

FEDERATION PRESIDENT
ASKS COOPERATION OF
CZUBS-RURAL WORKERS

My dear Clubwomen-I have been
thinking, writing, dreaming, nothing
but Parent Teacher work and rural
clubs for the past month. Two let
ters were sent out to club presidents
throughout the state. The following
to clubs where a Home Demonstra-
ton Agent is already working in the
parish:
Dear Madam Presdent-One of the
greatest opportunities to extend the
influence of our Federated Clubs and
to bring the country women and the
town women into closer relationship,
is through the Home Demonstration
Agent. Do you know the Demonstra-
tion Agent in your parish? She is
interested in solving the problems of
the woman who dwells on the farm.
One of these is the need of contact
with other women and the need of
group study of the problems of rural
life.
Your club means much to you and
to the community in which you live;
but your club like most others was
formed after the pattern of some
other club, and had for a nucleus
some women who were experienced in
club work. Will it not be possible
for you or some one, of whose capa-
bilities you have better knowledge
than |, to help the Demonstration
Agent in your parish to organize and
carry forward these rural clubs?
This is one of the big things club
women are doing in other states.
Where the farm women are ready
for it, parish organization is FORM
ed which meets once a month at the
county seat and brings town and
country women together, but in most
of our parishes the country women
are timid about organization, but
ready to take advantage of the pro-
gram furnished by the Extension De-
partment. l am writing to the Pres
