St. Paul Banker Declares Chest
 Puts Charity On Business Basis

the work to one of his department managers.
 The Community Chest idea is mot only to avoid duplication of charita- ble donations, but it must include a careful analysis of the work accom- plished by the institutions which the Chest supports, together with an au- dit of their accounts. In other words, the object of the Chest is to put charity on business basis, and l believe the opinion is almost unani- nous in St. Paul that we are decided ly working along the right lines, showing improvement each year as we go along, compared with the tre- mendous waste and inefficiency which existed under the old method of contributing according to ones feelings on a particular day"

: DAILY FASHION sERvrcH
SLEEVELESS JACKETS

The sleeveless Jacket blazes its brill
liant way through the summer
fashionable, comfortable and often
the one distinctive note of color to
a summer costume.
With few simple white frocks or
combinations of skirt and blouse and
several colored sleeveless sweaters,
any young woman may consider her
self well dressed while hot weather
lasts.
All manner of fabrics and colors
have been used for these jackets
the climate, the color of ones eyes,
the preference of ones husband
any of these is adequate to determine
whether white leather trimmed with
red, or black velvet, or linen crash,
or red flannel should be ones choice.
The Jackets arc worn with white
almost exclusively, though occasion
ally hat to match the coat adds
the touch of individuality to COS

When we stop to realize that there
are approximately 100000 deaths
every year in our country from pre-
ventable causes, serious attempt
should be made to cut down this fig
ure.
Without health to pursue your
daily profession or occupation, you
are poor. With health, think of how
much better equipped you are for
lifo's struggle,
The first consideration Is physical
fitness. Don't forget 1t for an instant
1t Is a fact that disease and unsani-
tary conditions are the leading fac
tors in causing poverty,
Cost OF Ignorance.
Ignorance and superstition 60
along life's pathway hand in hand.
Their companions are poorly nour-
ished bodies and moral depravity.
There are many thousands of people
in this land today mourning the loss
of some local one whose death was
due TO ignorance.
The three working forces for the
betterment of health conditions in
individuals and the public at large,
are the scientist, physician and the
public. They must fully cooperate
to secure what we all desire-a high
moral standard and healthy bodies
free from disease.
This is not to be secured in parts
of our country alone, but as a whole,
The high as well as the low should
be taught the need of all available
instruction on disease and its pre-
Vention.
Think Health.
Do you think these conditions can
prevail in your own household and
your own community? BE an opti-
mist and say yes. With the thoughts
Of all people in community turning

accord conversing on the thought of

you can. The result will justify any
time or expenditure. This will even

DRINKS FOR CHILDREN


The hostess who would entertain
small folk Is sometimes rather at a
loss when it comes time for refresh
ments.
Lemonade won't combine with ice
cream or milk in any form and plain
water doesn't seem very partyied
Milk with simple cakes is always
permissible, but not especially diff
ferent."
These chocolate drinks are very
nourishing and sure to please. Ora
ham crackers made into sandwiches
with thin filling of jelly, or bran
bread and butter sandwiches would
satisfy growing appetites and go"
beautifully with the drinks.
Cream Chocolate
One-half cake chocolate, "a cups
sugar, cups water, 1 teaspoon salt,
quarts milk, y pint whipping
cream, 2 teaspoons vanilla
Crate chocolate. Mix salt, sugar
and chocolate. Add boiling water
to make a smooth paste and slowly
stir into the ? cups of boiling water,
Boil, without stirring until thick.
Cool slightly and add vanilla.
Half fill glasses with cracked ice,
add tablespoons chocolate syrup
and fill glasses with milk. Top with
a small spoonful of whipped cream
slightly sweetened and favored with
vanilla.
Children always love to drink
through straw and these are an
economical device calculated to save
napkins.
Chilled cocoa is another nourish-
ing drink not quite SO rich as the
chocolate cream, Chocolate contains
,. large amount of fat while cocoa is
deficient in this.
Chilled Cocoa
Four tablespoons cocoa, 1 cup SUI
gar, / teaspoon salt, quarts milk,
, teaspoons vanilla.
Mix cocoa, sugar and salt to a
smooth syrup with boiling water.

water. Add vanilla and pour onto
Clipped ice.
A spoonful of whipped cream can
top the glass A pinch" of dry
cocoa is sifted over the top.
This drink may be more elab-
crate than is usually served at a
party from two to four" but it is
so satisfactory for children that 1t
might appeal for some small guests

rate white and yok of egg and beat

will be unnecessary to put ice in the

that she was destined to something
big in the motion pictures and,
though you were pretty mad, old
chap, because | snatched her away
from your cloak and suit shop, l
knew / could do much more for her
on my lot than you could do in cloak ks
and suits.
| did not tell you AT the time, but
! worked fast. ! saw that she had
something in the back of her bead
and ocn, what a face! You bet
took the chance. What's a little rail-
road fare? She'll make good and she'll
make good money for me.
There is a mysterious something
about her but it gets you every time,
II is more than the old worn-out sex
appeal You know that French sc-
cent of hers. Well. she's almost able
to get even that on the screen.
Now ] want you to tell me some
thing about her. DO you know If

I'll ask him. said Uncle Jim

What did | tell you?"
But you said | was going to ride

reminded him.
"Ah! They didn't hardly dare let
YOU do that. on account of the boy

But Johnnie Green didn't even
smile. Sometimes he thought the
hired mans Jokes were il-timed.
