Heart and Home Problems

Dear Mrs. Thompson: ( D.Will you please tell me If the scarfs that are knitted for soldiers can be made- of any other color than khaki and if they are made of khaki, wouldn't it be all right to trim them with red, white ana Diuer (2) Do -tney have tassels? What is the correct length and width? Do you think it would be all right to knit the initials on thejn? ' I have a brother in a camp in Carolina and want to send him one. BETTY. (1) Scarfs knitted for soldiers should be of the standard khaki color. As the army officials wish uniformity, it would be best to make the knitted articles plain color, no red, white or blue stripes. (2) Apply to the nearest branch of the American Red Cross Association and you can get the exact specifications for all the articles that are usually knitted for the soldiers.

"RED CHEEKS." (1) The best way to prepare for a career as a moving picture actress is to study hard now in school, so that when you are a little older you win have tie necessary education to take up the work.

You can get the street address from any copy of the moving picture magazines on most news stands now. (2) No. (3) No, it takes quite a lot of talent and a great deal of study and hard work to become a movie actress. (4) Yes. by all means, send him the candy.

Disloyal Merchants Must Go, Says John Mitchell HOBOKEN, N J., Dec. 21. Drastic steps against dishonest and unpatriotic merchants in New York were promised by John Mitchell, chairman of the Federal food board of New York, in an address at West Hoboken tonight, when he declared that many of them would be driven out of business before many weeks. . Mr. Mitchell declared it was the duty of all Americans, however, to "mortify" their appetites until they could say with all truth: " 'By self-sacrifice and true mortification, we. the people of th? United States, have been able to sustain not only our own armies, but those of our allies."

LAFAYETTE PLAN SYSTEMATIZES GIVING JO WAR Individuals Would Pledge -Themselves to Give Part of Income Monthly to War. LAFAYETTE, Ind., Dec. 21. Lafayette has taken the lead in a movement to systematize giving to war funds and the plan which is being put into opera-

tion here has attracted so much attention that it is believed it will be adopted in many cities in Indiana and other states. The plan was originated by the county council of defense and J. O. Beck, chairman, started the movement. It was first submitted to the Central Labor Union; which has a total mem bership of more than 3,000, and that organization approved the plan. It is now being laid before the students and faculty of Purdue university. It is the intention to introduce it into every church, fraternal organization and business establishment. Pledges' Regular Contributions. Under the Lafayette plan, the individual pledges himself to set aside a certain per cent, of his monthly income to be contributed to patriotic enterprises. He is provided with a card which he signs ,and preserves, a duplicate being kept on hand at headquarters. The Individual, when he signs a card, becomes a' member of the Tippecanoe County Workers' War Fund Club, which has established offices, with a secretary, In connection with the county council of defense headquarters. The pledge which the member signs is:as follows: "To promote systematic saving for war fund giving, to, protect against importers, and to provide a method for reducing the trouble and expense of necessary solicitation to a minimum, the undersigned agrees to pay monthly, and until I notify the secretary in writing of my withdrawal from the club, into the treasury of the Tippecanoe County Workers' War Fund Club the sum of $ to be dis persed by the executive committee of the club for such war charities as may be approved by the state council of de fense, and I declare this amount to be not less than percent of my in come." The plan is, to have the club mem' ber make his monthly payment at any bank in the city, the banks having agreed to take charge of the money. The bank records the payment on the card and the member of the club thus has a receipt for his payment, as well as evidence of his patriotic support of war enterprises. The person obhgat ing himself in this way and making payments regularly is not to be ex pected to make any other contnbu tions for war purposes, but is not relieved from solicitation for any local charities Many tons of hay from the Swiss mountains have been exported to Ger many to be used as tea. The hay con sists chiefly of aromatic plants and is gathered with much difficulty in the high altitudes. The price paid for this hay is between $5 and $S for 100 pounds.

Revelations BY ADELE DICKY AT THE CHAFING DISH (Concluded) He finished the blending and then picked up the bowl of oyster juice and poured its contents slowly Into the mixture already in cnanng ausu, stirring carefully as he did so. Whenj he had stirred it till it was bubbling he relaxed his Intent look, and turning to us, said: "Who was kicking about the red pepper? Do you really think I had, too much in the last time?" "That was only Harry. Dicky." Lillian Gale said soothingly. "Fix it up the way you always do, only hurry fr we are all starving." "Why don't you begin on the sandwiches then?" "No,' Dicky-bird," Lillian returned with an affected air of martyrdom, "Not a morsel shall pass our parched lips until you are ready to eat, too. Perhaps that will hurry him up a bit," she added with a wink to the rest of us. "Ready in a minute now," said Dicky encouragingly putting in the oysters after he had carefully seasoned the mixture in the chafing dish with salt, . . , :i J ft A n DiacK peppei;, papniia, auu juoi a. utj of cayenne. "Are the hot dishes ready Madge?" I touched the bell again lor Katie and at a signal from me she brought the soup plates, the only suitable dish es I had In the apartment, and piacea them before Dicky. Dicky put a liberal portion on each plate, and Katie passed them to tne guests. Then she passed around the crackers and we all were "valiant trencher men" for several minutes. I had never eaten oysters prepared in that manner, and I had to admit that Dicky was justified In his boasts to me on his culinary prowess. They were delicious, and the plates were quickly emptied. More," said Harry unaerwooa la conically holding up his plate. Down in front, Oliver Twist," re turned Dicky. "Dont you know my rule yet? Only one helping of oysters or otherwise you wouldn't enjoy the rarebit You will observe that the chafing dish is going. But it will be returned again presently, and you can put in your time at those sandwiches; if anybody takes too many of 'em, I'll take the plates away." "Stingy, stingy,' mocked little Mrs. Lester. "Still the rarebit is worth it. I never used to like them until I ato Mr. Graham's. Katie had removed the chafing dish and now she brought It back again and connected it with the electric light socket while the water was coming to a boll. Dicky took up a cup Into which the yolks of two eggs had been placed and stirred slowly Into it two teaspoons of dry mustard, two of Worcestershire sauce, two scant ones of butter, a few drops of tabasco, a dash of cayenne, another of black pepper and a liberal sprinkling of salt and paprika. These were the proportions for two pounds of cheese. Katie set at his elbow a bottle of ale which Dicky had uncorked in the afternoon, so that it would be of the exact flavor he wanted. He finished the blending of the mixture in the cup, set it aside and put into the blazer a heaping teaspoonful of butter, When it had simmered he added the cheese.

of a Wife GARRISON ;

the war depended upon his success In blending the melting cheese with tho ale which he poured on from time to time almost drop by drop. As he picked up the cup containing the mixture he had prepared with such care I summoned Katie to bring some heated plates, for I knew the stuff was nearly done. As Dicky stirred the mixture in the cup into the mass In the chafing dish I tried to summon my courage, for I knew that I must eat some of Dicky's" concoction. I have tried faithfully to like it for Dicky's sake, but I hate the very sight of It - ARING RESIGNS J. H. Aring, messenger from "the Richmond postoffice to the stations, has resigned. .
