Herbert Hoover, looked to for the mlvation of the cause of America and the allies in the war against Germany, 1'aa eo decreed. He appeals to the patriotism of the American people to help him. If thla appeal la not sufficient, or If the pat- ' i iotism Is lacking, the regulations will positively be enforced by legislation v bleb he says he is assured from the present congress. Dr. Harry E. Barnard, federal food administrator for Indiana, today following the proclamation of President Wilson yesterday. Issued a flat to all ounty food administrators, that they ree to ft, that popular habits conform 10 the modified food regulations. They are directed, with greater emphasis, 'n report Immediately the names of all stackers. The program and its explanation, Riven with the authority of Mr. Hoover himself, for the information of the people, follows: Have TWO WHEATLESS DAYS (Monday and Wednesday) in every week, and ONE WHKATLESS MEAL lu every day. Explanation On "Wbeatless" days unci In "Wheatlesa" meals of other !ayg use no crackers, pastry, macaroni, breakfast food or other cereal

rood containing wheat, and use no wheat flour In any form except the small amount that may be needed for thickening eoupa or gravies.-or for a Wilder In corn bread and other cereal breads.

News Print Paper Mills Must Be Closed Mondays

WASHINGTON, Jan. 28. Reversing an earlier ruling the fuel administration today held that news print paper mills come within the class of industries that must be closed on the next claht Mondays to conserve fuel. The ruling was changed after the federal trade commission had reported that enough news print paper was on hand in the country to, supply newspapers for the next ?S days.

Land improvements of an extensive character will be undertaken by the Riscayne Bay Land Co., Miami, Fla., organized with $500,000 capital.

f

Richmond,. Ind. ! My Dear Mrs. Thompson: I met a stranger some time ago and he wished to meet my folks so that he could call on me. We went together aome time when I began to hear that he did not have a good character so I quit

nam pot. teiiing him why. He had only mentioned a few things about his past to me. He has called on aev-

e r a 1 respectable people hero but I never learned what his business was. Would it be all right if I called one of these partita and asked about his character? How should I go about it? He has tried to persuade me to let him call but never mentioned anything about the

nnKt or asked for anv exnlanation as to

Why I quit him and I refused to see him. I have been thinking that I owe him an explanation and how should I go about it? He lives in another town. CURLS. Tou did perfectly right In cutting his acquaintance if you are positive the things you heard about him were true. You should have explained to him and if be had been a gentleman could well see your position. Tou might ask your friends what they know about him although it is rattier a ticklish matter. Simply ask them if tby know anything about the man which would keep you from caring for his friendship. "Of course you owe him an explanation. Tell him just exactly what you heard and give him a chance to make good Richmond. Ind., Jan. 23, 1918. My Dear Mrs. Thompson: 1 have a few questions which perplex me at times and would like to ask your advice on them. (1) When you meet anyone boy or girl, what would you say? "Glad to know you," and things like that are stale. What would be better? (2) When introducing a boy and a girl to another couple of brothers and sisters who are 15 years old what would you say? (3) I know a girl and would like to know her better. What shall I do? (4) I am rather bashful when I meet new boys and girle. I do not know what to talk about. How can I overcome this? (5) How can I make new acquaintances with girls? (f) What is good for prespiration? (7) The girls I run with are my age but all go with boys and every timo they get a chance they make fun of me. My boy friend and myself are not going together until he gets on long trousers. How can I make them stop? 8 At home all the blame of everything Is put on me and it makes me feel most miserable so when I go out I cannot have a good time. I am fifteen and would like to leave home on this account what would you advise me to do? (9) Where and how do the women get their education to drive ambulances in Prance? Thank you. HELEN W. Tcli certainly do like to ask questions. (1) AU you need do Is say "How-do-

yourdo" or make any commonplace remark. (2) If you are introducing your sister you might say, "Meet my si6ter Misg or I want you to meet my brother, Ralph, or whatever his

name might be. The age does not make much difference In an introduct

ion although more respect should al

ways be paid to older persons by

young ones.

(4) If you want to know this eirl

better you might invite her to your home providing you have already call-

ea upon ner.

(5) If you , are naturally backward

and bashful you will of course have

some ; trouble in overcoming your timidity. Just try to be your own sweet self and you will forget about your bashfulness and your friends will not notice it. (6) "Mum" is good for prespiration but your druggist may know of a better remedy. (7) Don't worry about your friends making fun of you. I am sure yon are most too young to keep steady company anywa. Judging from our letter you are not very old. (8) It may 6eem you are blamed for everything at home but remember my dear girl there is "No Place Like Home." You should treasure your home above everything eUe. Never leave it unless you are compelled to through necessity. Your parents always know best although you may not think so. As you grow older you will appreciate their advice. Parents are the best and truest friends in the world. (9) There are no women in France driving ambulances. Some of the French women have been pressed Into work however and are driving taxis for husbands and brothers who are in the service.

With a yiew to giving the public a correct understanding of the sugar situation, the following FACTS, are presented: Existing conditions are world wide in their effect, not in any sense local. Any consideration of the question of available sugar supply must take into account a series of extraordinary factors. The immediate effect of the declaration of the European war was to cut off from the world's market the sugar of the Central Powers. About one-third of the world's total production formerly came from within the present battlelines of Europe. The Western battlefront passes through the sugar producing territory of France and of Belgium. In consequence, England, France and other foreign countries have competed with the United States for Cuba's cane sugar. Not only did this cause an advance in the price of raw and refined sugar, but until competition was checked by the recent agreement among the Allies, it resulted in lessening the supply available to the people of this country last fall. At the same time, an abundance of sugar hundreds of thousands of tons has been locked up in far-away Java, owing to the lack of ships to transport it. It is no more available than unmined gold. To provide ships to bring this sugar here or to Europe would withdraw them from the more important business of carrying our soldiers and their supplies overseas, as Mr. Hoover h$s pointed out. The nation-wide movement to save the fruit crop last season greatly increased the use of sugar. While the quantity in the sugar bowl was for this and other reasons lessened, this sugar is wisely stored as food in preserved fruits. Jams and jellies. "Every jar of fruit preserved adds that much to our in- " surance of victory, adds that much to hasten the end of this conflict." Because of the increased demand for sugar, more sugar cane has been planted in Cuba, Porto Rico, Hawaii and Louisiana, the chief sources from which the United States gets cane sugar. The reports from Cuba and Porto Rico make the situation more favorable than a month ago for a supply to meet the sugar needs of all who are dependent on this source including th;s country, our soldiers abroad and the Allies. Wc buy raw cane sugar in the open market and refine it. To the extent of our ability, we are co-operating with the Government to insure a fair distribution of cane sugar, to stabilize the price to the consumer and to prevent hoarding k nd waste. We kept our refineries working last fall so long p.s there was a ton of raw sugar to be had. In order to make our output of refined sugar go as widely as possible, we distribute Domino Cane Sugars in convenientsize cartons and small cotton bags. These small-size packages make it easy for grocers to limit sales to actual needs and to prevent hoarding. They help to prevent waste in the home. Housewives can cooperate with this plan by asking for these package sugars. V It will be necessary for grocers and consumers to watch carefully their distribution and purchases during the approaching period of readjustment. The refineries are now starting up and supplies of raw sugar coming forward but it will take weeks, and possibly months, for the return of normal conditions. In war-time and at all times it is our aim to safeguard the interests of the public we serve.
