CAFE MEN ARE TOLD TO SHAVEDOWN MENU

Baby Iamb and Suckling Pigs Are Be Kept Out of the Kitchen Hereafter.

Terre Haute restaurant men Thursday got their first inkling of nrhat food control is actually going to wean in their line of endeavor.

Hotel and restaurant men of the country "are now bein* enlisted in the tood conservation army by Herbert Hoover, the report said.

In a preliminary conference with hotel men reports were submitted recommending first that the hotel men of the country print on all their menu cards the following: "Mr. Hoover urges the use of less wheat, pork products, butter and all fats, also beef, and to substitute and use treely sea food, fresh vegetables and fruit. Economy in the non-re-Sftricted food is not necessary or desirable a* the present time."

A general economy program outlined by the hotel and restaurant men was submitted to the food adminietration as follows:

One wheatless day each week or one wheatless meal each day is recommended, with adequate substitutes.

Baby lamb and suckling pig to be taken off the menu entirely veal, lamb, sweetbreads, and calves' liver eliminated t,hree days each week.

Serve butter only when ordered, one piece to an individual and no more unless ordered. Cut out hacon as a garniture and reducc the number' of fried dinhes, including fried potatoes. Eliminate cheese one day each week.

Use powdered soap in kitchen and washrooms and soda ash exclusively for scrubbing.

Take Candy Off Menu.

Candy to be taken off menu entirely and no sugar to be used in the manufacture of table decorations. Reduce so far as possible the use of cake.

The restaurateurs recommend that untrimmed sandwiches be not served, and this means eight per cent waste. Many recommendations are made for the proper serving of fish and fowl (ind of fruits arid vegetables.

The program for saving is purely suggestive, but represents the sentiment of the organizations as expressed through their committees. They suggest that the proposed plans for saving be recommended to all restaurants and hotels throughout the country for their guidance and co-operati"n.

FAMOUS PIANIST IS RIGHT WITH Th FLAG

JPercy Grainger Gives Up Concerts at a Minute for Army Service at $30 a Month.

XEW YORK, July 12.—If you were able to make $15 a minute you would hesitate about giving it up for a job that pays but $30 a month. The chances, are you would, anyway. Yet this is what Percy Grainger has done.

Percy Grainger, the famous Australian pianist, is now an enlisted man in the United States army. And instead of receiving $1,200 for an eve ning's concert of about an hour and twenty minutes at the piano—$15 minute—he is being paid $30 a motitii by t'nclc Sam, which is t'je reason for this little story.

The writer went to Fort Hamilton yesterday afternoon to see the celebrated pianist in uniform and to have a little chat with him. He found him practicing the oboe 1a the band quar

(QUI*WJIwoog

PIINCV KAIM F,K.

ters-^for the pianist enlisted as a musician of the third class and was assigned to the Fifteenth coast artillery corps band, which is stationed at Fort Hamilton at the entrance of New York's harbor.

Percy Grainger, third-class musician in the United States army, presented a great difference from the Percy Grainger who appeared on the concert platform last sonson. His long blond locks have been shorn and his khaki uniform has almost succeeded in transforming him frcyxi an effeminate musician into a stalwart man.

Eager To Do His Bit.

"I enlisted as a saxaphone player," explained Musician Grainger after ho had greeted the writer with a hearty handshake, "bu*' the band didn't have an eboe player and so I'm learning to play it. You see, as a composer I've been mora or less familiar with al' ie instruments in an orchestra and

Jt's

not very difficult for me to master the oboe. On parade, of course, I play the saxophone, but In the band concarts I play the oboe. "Why did I enlist?" He repeated the writer's question. "Well. I wanted to do my bit from the outbreak of the war, Jut 1 had an invalid father in Australia dependant upon me and 1 couldn't afford to stop work. But rtiy father died recently and when I received the word I decided to enlist. I chose the American army because I am anxious to become an American citizen.. As I had never had any military experience I felt that I would be of more value ih the band than in any other branch of the service. Musicians are necessary in this war— everybody can't be on the fighting line you know. "You see," the pianist went on, "after I learn tho routine of the service I may be of value in organizing other bands. That's why I enlisted as a musician of the third class, the lowest grade. I want to learn the business from the bottom up, so to speak. I fartcy I know something about music and later on this knowledge may be worth while. "At the present time the commandant allows me to play at Red Cross concerts—I appeared at one last week which raised $2,670—so it is not likely that 1 will be forced to abandon the piapo."

How do you like & soldier's life?" he was asked. "It's really very fine," replied Grainger, "that is, if one wants to practice. You see, we musicians do not have to drill or mount guard. We have aH morning to practice and a large part of the afternoon. At half past four we parade for an hour and we give a concert of about an hour and twenty minutes every evening. 1 often practice as much as five hours a day on the oboe and, of course, I do not neglect the piano."

Before the writer took his leave the famous musician offered him his choice between a chew of tobacco and a bar of chocolate. -N "I have to carr* both," admitted Grainger. "My follow bandsmen have mixed tastes.™

But it must be admitted that Percy Grainger is setting a good example to the hundred thousand British "slackers" who are over here.

Every woman knows that lemon juice is used to bleach and remove such blemishes, as sallowness. freckles and tan, and i* the ideal skin •softener, smoothener ar^l beautifier.

It is wonderful to smoothen rough^ red hands.— Advertisement.

the early staged of the war by som.1 of the American actors at the Lamb? c'ub are now having their innings. They are having many laughs over the efforts of some of the young American actors to avoid conscription.

It will be recalled that some of the wags at the Lambs' club put up posters reading, "Your King ana Countr Needs You," for the benefit of their English guests. And also that whit* feathers were mailed to many of the British players.

But now it is quite the fashion for the British actors to ask their American colleagues if they "are enjoying poor health." "You're a lucky dog," said a British actor to a young American player th*. other day. "I hear you have hean disease and may drop dead at an moment"

SALE OF C. & E. I. DELAYED.

Big Four Is Said to Have Entered the Lists As New Owner. i Judge Carpenter in Chicago yesterday granted a petition by the Metropoiitan Trust company, trustee of the Chicxpo and Indiana Coal Railroad company, forv appeal to the Unite-! Ftates circuit court of appeals from his recent decision ordering the sal' of the Chicago and Eastern Illinois railroad on July 17. Tne decision als disallowed the claim of the Metropolitan Trust company on the entire property of the Chicago and Eeastern IIlinois railroad.

The order granting the petition gives the trust company forty days in which to perfect its appeal, providing that it riles a bond of $ i,»iuf.0t'0 in ca&e it de- i sires to hold up the sale of the railroad property. As it already has been agreed to postpone the sale until Sept. 4, thM bond holding up the proceedings may not be required.

One report has it tjiat the Big Four has experts invoicing the road and its territory. It would prove a feeder t" the main line of the Big Four at Terre,, Haute, Ind. The Baltimore and Ohio is also said to be a prospective bidder
