EAST HMIMOND WDUJUI PATRIOT In Humble Cottage Light of Patriotism Shines Brilliantly in Demonstration of Food. This old adage was once more confirmed yesterday at one of the cottage homes in East Hammond. The mother of this lmrne has eight children but she feels she has time to attend demonstrations in canning and use of substitutes to be very active in Red Cross work and keep a neat, clean home To help some on else and to keep a happy home is the thought that this busy, cheerful mother imparts to those with whom she comes in contact. At a demonstration on substitute flours a few weeks ago. the demonstration agent had taken along some cans of vegetables and spoke of their essential place in every one's diet, and of the need for saving everv ounce of food that had been produced. At. tha close of the. lesson fh was asked to come to this little cottage home to give a lesson in canning. ?o yesterday when the agent arrived by previous arrangement, a fire was blazing in a coal range and kettles, boilers, racks. Jars, everything necessary for a successful hour was ready. The crowd of neighbors soon filled the kitchen so that it was neeessarv to move the demonstration into the next room The women all went to and from the kitchen to this room with each step in canning to see Just what the agent did and Just what to expect in the different stages of the coid-pack method Many tomatoes are arriving in market now and some very nice ones have been selling at $1 ar.d $1 15 a bushel. Come now to the canning demonstrations. Many home tasks can be postponed, although with inconvenience, somewhat, certainly, but when frutis and vegetables are here they cannot wait for anothT week. Each week brings its ripe food, and if it is not canned, it eny can go to the garbage j heap, so let every woman weigh very seriously the opportunity that is now hers in helping not only in one direction that may contribute to the successful ending of this war. whether that may be. financing or helping to save food, or making it possible for some one else to do these thintts. Although Miss Cornell has made the rounds of the citv in making of nowheat breads, there still come to her office inquiries for these. a demonstration may be given in any home that will call 74. Liberty Hall and arrange with Miss Cornell for same. Although canning and baking have bee-n the subjects of the demonstrations there are hundreds of other valuable household helps gained in these lessons. The future holds so much In the line of meat substitutes, drylnsr and fo on In an endless chain, that one is almost non-plussed to decide what to do first. One thing is certain the canning and baking have begun, but it remains to the personal worker to spread th food conservation spirit into homes that are indifferent, or the homes that are already bearing morenj of the world's burdens than is necessary. A volunteer class is now in training at Liberty Hall and will arrange to demonstrate in any home that will communicate with the office. 74 Liberty Hall Don't miss the demonstration on "No Wheat Breads" at Columbia school Fridav. 2 p. m. street, on the first Saturday in September.

Mrs A. I Miller

Magnificent work calling for weeks of unremitting toil is shown bv the report of Mrs. A. J. Miller of S61 Calumet avenue. Hammond, head of the. Women's War Census in the city and her assistants. The highest credit is deserved byMrs. Miller for doing a work of such importance when she had a household and family of children to take care of in addition and she certainly can be labelled one of Hammond's finest patriots. The Women's War Census of Hammond shows an enrollment of over 6.30O women. About ?pft show no offer of service. These, excepting a short list, are from invalids, and busy mothers wi'h children. The offers of service are in various lines and the cards are classified according to the most urgent war needs and local demands. Offers have been made to do agricultural, clerical ( and manyforms of industrial work, munitions. including for the winning of the war. will slip i into offices many places in the state be-I cause the voters will not take, enough interest to cast their votes. NO "STANDINQ BY WAE?" Republican leaders say the Demo- : crats urn far more exercised over the , situation than their opponents, because j lack of interest in the campaign at this i time shows a complete breaking down j of the program for political purposes. originated by the Democrats, vizt "Stand h.-hind the President." It apparently is true that herculean efforts are being exerted by the Democratic state and local organizations to register their voters, but thus far these efforts have availed little. Warnings of many kinds, however, are going out to Republican worxers everywhere on the subject and every effort is to be. put forward before the end of the registration period to insure that Republicans register. The protection of the business of. the local governmental units here at home and the entire de velopment of the war program of the cour.lr. hln ent:reiy on the character of men elected at the November election it is pointed out.

Tou'd better not forget the password when you are in the American front, at night, especially anywhere near the Iir.es. If you do your name is likely to be on the missing list. The American guards take no chances. They challenge with snap, and hold a gun on you when you come up to give the word. Until you're recognized you have a bayonet awfully close to your heart. French officers have remarked admiring the striking way the American gives rip "Halt, who is there?" There's no chance of putting anything over on one of these American sentinels, no matter how dark the night. He keeps it on you until he 13 sure. DECENT BOCHE DOG.

Every time there is a big German raid, this dog apper.rs running along the German trenches. Every time, he has warned the Americans who are ready for the boches when they come over. Every raid has been repulsed and has been costly to the. Germans. The only possible explanation is that the dog belongs to a German officer of high rank who inspects the trenches before big raids.

Swagger sticks are the latest m doughboy social circles. . Not canes, but swagger sticks. He may not have the "foxiest duds." his shoes may bo unpolishable., ar.d his bat hasn't the 'snap" that's in a derby, but that doesn't keep the doughboy from being the dude of the army, if he so desires. The doughboys never took to canes. They were monopolized by aviators and ambulance drivers in Europe. Swagger sticks are different. They add poise to a man's strut, and if anyone has earned the right to strut m Uncle San.'s army, it is the doughboy. To do it right, he's adopted the swagger stick.
