WHAT SAMMIES EAT

Meat Twice Daily, White Bread, Vegetables, Chief Foods. Coffee Berved at Breakfast and Buttermilk, Tea, Cocoa or Water at Other Meals. The old Idea* that army diet should consist largely of beans, hardtack and coffee, Is no longer approved, writes Belle Case Harrington In Leslie’s. In the present training camps meat, preferably beef, is served twice a day, with white bread baked in the general camp bakery and kept 24 hours before serving. Where green vegetables can be obtained they are used, otherwise canned goods are substituted. Coffee Is served, at breakfast, and buttermilk, lemonade, tea, cocoa or water at other meais. Meals, which in the vernacular are 4< hless” or “chow,” are served cafeteria style. Every soldier is furnished with an outfit which consists of a meat-pan, knife, fork and spoon, and a longhandled cup. The cover of the meatpan serves as a plate, and the outfit is so arranged that each man may do his own cooking in case of an 'emergency. Each man takes his meat-pan and passes before a table where he is served with the various dishes prepared. He then goes to a table, or if there is none, drops down on the ground, and eats in absolute contentment. Don’t feel too sorry for the boys, even if they do write longingly home wishing for mother’s cookies or Jane’s fried chicken. Men in outdoor training have good appetites, and they ara far better off physically than if fed on the salads and ices and sodas they probably would have at home. What they miss most Is sweets. If you are sending things from home put in cookies, candles and jams or Jellies. Milk chocolate Is one of the things a soldier seems to crave, and a Jar of malted milk will come handy If he is not feeling well. Be sure not to send food that Is too rich as the boys are on plain diet One of the comforting thoughts to the friends at home is the fact that Uncle Sam is bound to maintain good health among his soldiers. Even If there were no humane considerations, this would be necessary from a purely economic standpoint. Sick soldiers are a' menace, and a regiment not up to par in the matter of health is an awful handicap. All men are vaccinated for smallpox, and inoculated against typhoid as soon as they enter service. Minor disorders, such as blisters, bow-’ el trouble, or sore throat are carefully watched by the officers in charge, and there is a hospital with trained nurses in every camp. No faking can pass. The officers have sharp eyes to. discriminate between real and simulated illness. As the boys say, “There are only two times a day when a fellow can get sick” —at sick call, which occurs at 7 a. m., and again at 5:30 p. m. Between times “he just has to stand It.” Regular habits, outdoor life, plain food, and strenuous military drill, are In themselves strong factors toward good health, and many a man who enters the service a comparative weakling will come out fine of physique and strong of limb. As for drinking, it “Isn’t done!” Saloons and even soft drink establishments are not to sell anything to a soldier In uniform, and many young men who have heretofore been occasional drinkers now proudly proclaim themselves teetotalers.

No Butter at Vassar.

The announcement at Vassar college that no more butter will be served at dinner has caused much discussion, but the girls promise to give the plan a trial! says New York World. It is a war measure, established on account of the high cost of living. The girls will have gravies, jellies and jams to take the place of butter. It was said that the college would lift the ban on butter for dinner just as soon as there were any complaints. The hard-boiled egg for breakfast Is doomed, too; at least it must not be served where omelet Is to be had. Because most of the girls have a sweet tooth, the college authorities will increase the sugar service at all meals; but this will be evened up by cutting down of meat

Sheep-Killing Parrots at Large.

Not long ago no little, consternation was created by the escape at San Francisco of two keas, pr sheep-killing parrots, which were being shipped from Australia to the Smithsonian institution, at Washington, says Popular Mechanics Magazine. The birds liberated themselves by splintering the slats of their wooden crates with their powerful beaks. The federal authorities offered a reward of SIOO for each bird taken dead or alive. This species of parrot has made Itself an enemy of man In both Australia and New Zealand by slaying sheep for the sake of eating parts of the flesh, of winch It is very fond, and there bounties are paid for killing the birds.

Paul Donnelly Now In The Service of Uncle Sam

San Francisco, Cal. Dec. 29, 1917 Dear Editor:— , I am in the hospital now without much on mind only the home folks, so will drop you'a few lines, which if you find desirable, you may put in the good old Republican paper. I have met several people from Indiana out here and they sure make me want to get back. It has been rather damp since my arrival here, but the weather at this time is much ;he same as it is in Indiana in summer. The trees are green and the dowers in bloom. It surely is a nice iight to come into after leaving the snow and ice. Now I am going to tell you how I got here, so don’t be surprised at anything I say. I left Rensselaer the .irst week in November, going to Chicago. From Chicago I headed vest. Saw some fine land in Illinois jut on account of night overtaking as did not see much of lowa. I landed in Omaha the next morning about nine o'clock; got a job in the Lincoln Highway garage at Kimball, a little town of about 2,000 inhabitants in western Nebraska. I had been working in Kimball about a month, when I heard about volunteer enlistments stopping on Dec. 12, so I thought it time for me to get busy. I left for Sidney, Neb., Dec. 11, enlisting the same day and right then and there my board and room bills stopped. About 500 Of us left Sidney on the thirteenth for Ft. Logan, Cal., about eight miles southwest of Denver. We remained in Denver over night, going to the Fort the next morning, where we were examined and sworn in. We stayed at the Y. M. C. A. in Denver for three days and then got our clothes and left Fort Logan for “somewhere.” I was in the cook car \ and, of course, got all I could eat and a little bit more than I should have had so, with the ' eats and cold combined I felt pretty bum. On Christmas eve we landed in Salt Lake City, Utah. There the Red Cross gave us our Christmas of candy, nuts, oranges, apples, bananas and postal cards. We sure feel indebted to the people of Salt Lake. We left Salt Lake the same riight and got into Oakland, Cal., December 26. From there we took aU. S. boat to Fort Scott, San Francisco. There we were assigned to companies, some being assigned to Fort Scott, but my pal and I were sent to Fort Miley. I was sure pleased with my assignment for Fort Miley is a grand place, situated pn a plateau over looking the ocean and San Francisco. We have sidewalks and macadamized roads —no mud at all. I drilled the first day after arriving at Fort Miley and like' it fine, but I had a bad cold and the sergeant noticed it and I was sent to the hosptial. I am some improved now, but may have to submit to an operation for the removal of my tonsils. I am now laundry guard in the hospital, but hope that I will out soon and back with the fellows at the Fort. . I euess I have told you my story as well as I can, end hope all my old friends are enjoying life. Hoping to receive word from some of my Indiana friends, I am, as ever _ PAUL DONNELLY. p.S.—My address is, Co. 18., Fort Miley, San Francisco, Cal. ‘
