Plans for reopening the program
were perfected last August, but
were held up until the schools could
be organized for the fall term and
until the approval OF the Board of
Education could be obtained. The
board, meeting Wednesday after

the plan which produced more than
100000 pounds OF scrap paper and
100000 in revenue for the schools
in the five full months of opera

New Voting Method
Sought by Deputies
AT Episcopal Session
Liberals Dissatisfied
With Decision on
Remorrioee Canon
BY HAROLD B. ROGERS,

CLEVELAND, Oct. 9.-Having
virtually killed all prospects of lib
eralizing the canon on remarriage
after divorce, the House of Deputies
of the Protestant Episcopal Church
today sent report Of its action to
the House of Bishops, where there
appeared little prospect of favorable
action.
Two days of debate by the dep
uties were ended under the tradi-
tional system of voting by orders, -
clerical and lay, and the proposal to
revise the marriage canon was de-
feated, 1t would have made pos
sible remarriage of divorced per-
sons a year after divorce, provided
they had consent of the ecclesias-
tical authority of their diocese.
Dissatisfied with the complcate ted
system of voting. where divided
vote OF diocese was considered a
vote in the negative, liberals intro
duced in the House of Deputies last
night a proposed constitutional
amendment to provide that "di-
vided votes shall not be counted in
determining the result"
System Called "Archaic."
This system of voting was branded
last night as archaic" by Henry
Adsit Bull of Western New York, as
he introduced the proposed change.
The majority of laymen for lib
eralization, and the vote among the
clergy which was said to be more
liberal than during the last con-
vention, were pointed to by Lispen-
ard B. Phister of Massachusetts
leader in the fight for a change. as
showing tremendous demand" BY
both clergy and laymen for a
change
ID. c. Deputies Favor Plan.
Mr.. Phister was supported in de-
bate by Thomas E. Robertson OF
Washington, member of the Com
mittee on Canons, and Charles F.
Wilson of Washington. member OF
the commission on matrimony, who
voted for the liberal amendment
Others of the Washington delega-
ton voting for the change were
DR.. w. Sinclair Bowen. Ogle R.
Singleton, lay deputies, and Canon
Theodore o. Wedel of Washington
Cathedral. The other Washington
deputies-Dr Franklin J. Bohanan.
the Rev. Clyde Brown and the Rev.
F. Bland Tucker voted in the mega
tive.
The House of Deputies had before
it today for consideration a budget
Of s2,6l5,3 for the year 1914. rec
commended by its Committee on
Budget and Program. of which DR..
Franklin j. Bohanan of Washington
is vice president. The sum is de-
signed for use by missionary work
OF the church administered by the
national council Of the church. and
work of the National Council in
Christian Education, Social Service
and Promotion.
The House OF Bishops today
planned to elect missionary bishops
and complete work on the pastoral
letter which will be read to a Joint
session in Trinity Cathedral here
probably tomorrow afternoon.

quickly As possible because the first
collections will start Monday.
Inasmuch as nearly 100000
pounds of newsprint reach WASH
ington each month, the opportunity
for the collection of paper is suffi-
GENTLY great to provide waste pa
per for all agencies desiring to
collect.
The school program is intended
to give children an opportunity to
do their part in the war effort.
When it had started rolling along
in l941, the plan was quickly picked
up by the War Production Board
Salvage Section and an outline of
The Evening Star P-TA program
was sent to all field agents to serve
as a model in other cities through

care should be taken to avoid cut

ing the potatoes during digging,
picking up, grading, placing in
containers, and moving to the
storage house.
Do not put any bruised or in
jured potatoes in storage and
those showing any evidence of
disease should be removed as they
are graded. If only sound, disease
free potatoes go into the storage
house, the losses during storage
will be greatly reduced.
Lassiter calls particular atten-

Timely Hints
By RUTH CURRENT
State Home Demonstration Agent

When the front door sWells, the
bureau drawers stick, the dining
table warps, and the ironing
board bulges, blam the weather,
say wood experts. Wood, espec-
tally unfinished wood, absorbs
moisture from the air in warm
humid weather and sWells. While
the wood is swollen, not much can
be done except to ease tight plac-
es by rubbing with wax. But la
ter when heat has dried out the
house and brought the wood back
to normal size, coat the under
side of labels and other unfiniSh-
ed wood surfaces with varnish or
wax to prevent the wood from
taking in so much moisture again.
The bulged board that adds to
home ironing difficulties is a
Ironing boards are usually I'M
finished, and kept in damp laun-
dries or kitchens. In ironing,
steam from damp clothes is driv-
en- down into the, wood. Wood
experts advise buying a thorough
ly seasoned board at least an inch
and half thick, because thick
wood warps less than thin, and
giving it several all-over coats of
good spar varnish. Cleats of hard
wood nailed to the under side of
the board help hold it flat. Keep
the board in a dry place.
If you must peel potatoes ahead
of time and keep them soaking
before cooking, put them in salt
water rather than fresh water
and save vitamin G., advise ex-

Harvest "Ya1ns''
Before Frost

Thousands of bushels of sweet
potatoes are lost in North Carolina
each winter because growers wait
until after frost to harvest the
crop, says j. Y. Lassiter, Exten-
sion horticulturist at State Col
lege.
He recommends that growers
dig their potatoes when they are
mature and not wait until frost
kills the vines. The ground
should be good and dry when har-
vesting begins. .....-.-
Several hills of potatoes should
be tested for maturity just before
harvesting. When a mature po-
tato is broken, the surface will
appear white and dry in few
minutes. If the potato is not ma
tufe, the broken surface will show
considerable sap and the color
will change to greenish black.
The sweet potato is covered by
thin, delicate skin which is very
easily broken. For this reason,
pertinent specialists. Though po-
tatoes lose some crispness in salt
water, they hold more vitamin c
and are excellent both in flavor
and texture after cooking.
