come marching home,” let us see a monster new hotel in Belmar and a first-class athletic club in con­junction with the new hotel. Let us march along “in class” where we belong.

To Mr. Paul Zizinia of the Inllet Terrace club, congratulations on the big swimming meet.

The fifteenth grand annual card party and dance, for the benefit of St. Rose’s church will be held at the Nevv Columbia hotel, Friday evening, August 23. As usual the event is planned to be of social im­portance, and the committee of la­dies in charge promise that even war time will not lesson its interest as the importance of keeping the home fires burning is a war time gospel in itself. It might be said in this connection, however, thatu patriotic drive is being arranged for to be held before the present sea­son elapses, so that the war work of St. Bose’s parish will make its re­cord in time to be counted in the summer’s acheivements.

At the card party the games will begin promptly at eight thirty, and bridge, euchre and five hundred will be played. Judging from the gener­ous donations for prizes and the rapid sale of tickets it is assured that the St. Bose card party has esta­blished its reputation. The prizes will be uniform, and contributions for them will be received at the rec­tory or by any member of the com­mittee. A door prize of ten dollars in gold has been donated by the pastor, Bev. William J. McConnell. The tickets will be as usual, two dol­lars, and the following ladies com­pose the committee: Chairman,Mrs. Charles F. Miner; Mrs. James Billington, Mrs. Harry Davis. Mrs. Thomas E. Dolan, Mrs. James Ferris Mrs. Howard B. Garis, Mrs. HenryH. Herberman, Mrs. James Kelly, Mrs. C. A. Emise, Mrs. Harry Leslie, Mrs. James McConnell, Mrs. Peter P. McLaughlin, Mrs. John J. Mooney, Mrs. Walter Walsh and Mrs. Joseph Weed.

During the evening patriotic music wfll be rendered and special com­mittees are composed of the follow­ing members: Prizes, Mrs. Miner, Mrs. Weed and Mrs. Kelly; printing.

I Mrs. Miner and Mrs. Herberman; music, Mrs. Miner and Mrs. Kelly;

TUESDAY EVENING RECITAL

Dr Bernard Steinberg and Miss Lil­lian Krauss Sing in M. E. Church

The fourth of the notable series of Tuesday evening recitals being given in the Belmar Methodist church attracted a large and appre­ciative audience last Tuesday even­ing The artists on the program were Dr. Bernard Steinberg, bari­tone and vocal teacher of New York City, Miss Lillian Krauss, mezzo-so­prano of New York and Spring Lake with Mr. Eugene Bernstein at the piano.

Dr. Steinberg opened the program with a masterly rendition of a dif­ficult aria from “Herodiade.” This number was greeted with such ap­plause that an encore was granted. In his three groups of songs Dr. Steinberg interpreted compositions of many types and always with dignity and mastery. One of the features of the program w as the in­troduction of a song just composed by Mr. Oscar Sperescu. The lyric was by Mr. Alexander Kahn, who was present. The song was named at the recital and announced as “In Flanders.” Mr. Sperescu, the com­poser, acempanied Dr. Steinberg in his song which the audience insist­ed upon hearing twice.

The appearance of Miss Krauss on the program was a surprise—a de­lightful one—to all. A noted violin­ist had been expected to appear, but word was received on the morning of the recital that it w ould be im­

possible for this artist to come be­cause of a conflicting distant en­gagement. Miss Krauss was ap­pealed to at noon and with most gracious generosity consented to fill the breach in the program. The announcement of her presence was greeted with enthusiaasm by the au­dience which remembered Miss Krauss’ recital of two w-eeks ago and it was the same effervescent personal­ity, the same flexibility of terhnique, the same purity of tone that charm­ed again. Miss Krauss confirmed

' the former admiration of her au­dience. and as a background to these two splendid voices there was ever

i the colorful accompaniment that j added lights and shadows, contrasts and balance.

CAPTAIN CONOVER DIES

j Captain Alfred P. Conover of Key- j port, a brother of Mrs. Holmes Ab­bott of Belmar, died recently of

| wounds in France. yCaptain Conover had been in the

army for a score of years. He en­listed as a private at the outbreak of the Spanish-American war and after serving his term re-enlisted and was sent to China to help put down the Boxer uprisings. From there he was sent to the Philippines and saw service under General Pershing. He was later sent to the Mexican border and was then re­turned to the Philippines. He was commissioned last year and was rapidly advanced to captain.

Big audiences both Friday and Saturday nights greeted the Avon Comedy club at their annual enter­tainment in the club house. These affairs are looked forward to with great pleasure by the resident of Avon. The entertainment wTas for the benefit of local charities and the Avon Bed Cross. Vaudeville and musical comedy made up the pro­gram and Avon summer residents wrere the principal participants.

Miss Julia Howell and Miss Mar­jorie Thomas gave a delightful song and dance. Miss Lillian Ely was fine in recitations and Miss Mary Dawson delighted her audience with artistic dancing. George Donahue and Miss Tsabelle Kohlepp were great in a popular song act. A very dainty number was that of Miss Barbara Moss Field in the “Dance of the Bose Petals.” Miss Kohlepp and Miss Lucy Tompkins presented very cleverly a series of songs, “Musical Odds and Ends” in which appeared Miss Kohlepp, Baymond Maurice, Baphael Gorizales. Louis Argueso. It was much enjoyed.

The musical farce was a good scream and made a big hit. It was staged under the direction of James Lektier.

CONDUCTED BY ATHLETIC CLUB AT COLUMBIA HOTEL

U. S. Military Hospital at Lake­wood Gets Substantial Check— Other Entertainments Arranged

(Continued on page 8.)

Some of the good ladies of the New Columbia hotel, conducted a very pretty and refined entertain­ment last Saturday evening at the hotel to secure funds to give the boys from “over there” some deli­cacies and smokes while they are convalescing from wounds and di­sease.

At 8.40 the numerous guests of the hotel filled the ball room and the program was opened by the boys from the U. S. Badio station, Bel­mar. One of the boys sang “I’m Sorry That I Made You Cry.” The vocalist not only sang this song in a splendid way, but put such feel­ing into it and told his story in song so splendidly that the folks present gave him a rousing encore., The Marconi orchestra accompanied their comrade. The former also gave a few very nice selections.

A cake was disposed of in share for the boys.

Little Miss Pullin of Ocean Grove gave violin and piano solos and last, but not least, two recitations, “The Flag” and “Squashville”. These two recitations, with her musical numbers were very inter­esting and all were executed in a masterly way. Miss Pullin is cer­tainly a little show in herself, every one of her numbers, being of such representative nature, that one felt that four different people were per­forming.

Again the Columbia hotel guests had the pleasure of hearing Miss Adelina Spinetti and her sister, Miss Corina Spinetti, in two separate numbers in music. Both of these young ladies, along with their ppr- ents and friends are summering at the Columbia. Their winter home is in Caracas, Venezuela. Word flashed along the line that Miss Ade­lina would again give piano selec­tions. This brought along many lov­ers of refined music. By the time Miss Spinetti rendered two numbers on the piano the audience was spell­bound. Her usual ability was dem­onstrated in such a confident way that one could not but help saying: “Wonderful, beautiful.” The second number brought forth Miss Corina Spinetti with the guitar and Miss Adelina with mandolin. This was a surprise for the audience. Miss Corina Spinetti’s first appearance helped to make this number most beautiful. The pretty Spanish se­lect reditions gave all an idea of what one would hear in the society circles of Spanish families.

Miss Dorothy Valarie Haverstick, another guest of the hotel, again favored, the guests and audience with three very pretty songs. To know Miss Haverstick, one would expect her to sing just such unique, select snugs. Her numbers were so w ell chosen and rendered and all so well pleased that hearty applause was awarded this young lady for her renditions and anxiety- to help the boys in any way. It is hard for one to appear before an audience w'hen not a professional, however, experts are not all “in the profes­sional ranks.”

Paul Golibatt, a member of the Hotel club, rendered twTo excellent cornet solos. “The End of a Per­fect Day” and “Holy City” being the numbers chosen by this splen­did young man. Paul is ever ready to do anything to help along a good cause. Mr. Golibatt is no “fair” cornet soloist. His rendition and “feeling” in the mentioned numbers were such that" John Philin Sousa will get after Paul when he hears of him.

The young ladies of the hotel who sold the tickets are to be congratu­lated. Captain Schaffer, vhn is in charge of the boys of the U. S. Mili­tary hospital at Lakewood, will find a substantial amount in his cash box that he may be able to supply the sick boys with such little com­forts that they do not get along with military duty.

The entertainment was arranged for by a guest of the hotel Mrs.

Christobal, C. Z.—It may safely be said that nowhere else in the world except in the Canal Zone could have developed a great pasturage area out of primeval jungle and put the cattle on it to support a population of 150,- 000 people with beef and milk in a year’s time.

But this Is what the men who dug the canal and had it running ahead of schedule time have done. War’s threat of famine has no terrors for them. It Is also literally true that

! this Industrial feat has been accotn- I plished by the real ditch diggers, the ; men who were the rank and file of a few years ago, but who are now run­ning the canal at a time when its im­portance in winning the war is so vi­tal and imperative. The gunpowder material for the allies passes through the canal, and it may win the war before tbe great atmospheric ni­trogen plants get into operation in the United States.

Econom ical Independence.To make the force of men engaged

ln the maintenance, operation and de­fense of the canal economically independent of outside sources of food supply to the greatest possible extent, has become the fixed policy here, and the progress of the war daily vindi­cates its wisdom. There are hundreds of thousands of idle acres near the canal and hundreds of thousands of idle or comparatively idle men in ad­joining countries, and the use of both these unemployed assets is self-evident­ly desirable.

Pineapples and sugar from Hawaii constantly pass the canal, when cane and pines both grow freely and lux­uriantly here; oranges are imported from California and Florida; even fish from Europe sometimes, when Panama’s waters abound in excellent red snapper and Spanish mackerel. It Is a curious comment on industry that this situation should have existed here for 400 years, but at last it is being remedied.

To W hom Credit Is Due.The main active agent in this work

is the chief quartermaster of the canal, R. K. Morris, who is one of the “boys who grew up on the canal.” He began as a clerk at a little over twenty years of age, some 14 years ago, and has now become the Hoover of the zone and perhaps the biggest agriculturist in Latin-America. Mr. Morris has taken up the work with Intelligent enthusiasm, studied it from many angles, got a corps of prac­tical experts, and is bidding fair to solve some of the most important and difficult problems that have ever con­fronted tropical pioneers. He is in line to do with tropical agriculture what General Gorgas did with tropi­cal sanitation.

The time is very propitious and the results will be well worth watching.

N arratives From Reliable Sources R e­fu te German A ssertion of

Ineffectiveness.

London. — Interesting narratives from reliable sources refute the Ger- mun assertion regarding the alleged ineffectiveness of depth charges and other methods of destroying subma­rines.

On a bright moonlight night a Brit­ish patrol boat observed a submarine half a mile distant, apparently re­charging. The captain immediately ordered full speed in the direction of the U-boat, with the object of ram­ming her before she was able to sub­merge. The U-boat succeeded in sub­merging, but the patrol boat came up and dropped six depth charges and then fired a shell at the center of the visible disturbance. Large quantities of oil came to the surface and cries for Help were heard. Only one survi­vor was found.

A British submarine recently rammed an enemy suli marine. The British boat cut through the enemy’s plates and remained imbedded. Both endeavored to extricate themselves. The enemy, through using his ballast tanks, almost came to the surface, bringing the British submarine along. Then the German drew’ away in great difficulty, apparently frantically en­deavoring to keep afloat, but subse­quently sank.

RUSH FOR BRITISH GUARDSAll C lasses o f English P eop le Eager

to E nlist in Crack Reg­im ents.

London—The glamour of the Guards has appealed to men of all classes of society, and a vacancy in these regi­ments either of commission or in the ranks seldom needed hours to fill.

At present these regiments are open to recruiting, with the result that there is a positive rush among young men to enlist. The hundreds of young min­ers who have been released under the combing out order, especially men from the northern districts, are com­ing to London for the purpose of en­listing in these crack regiments, and the recruiting authorities are working night and day.

The men are all of splendid physique and show by their action that they have not got over the good old-fash- ioned English dislike of -waiting until they are fetched.

The majority of the men are enlist­ing for the full army period of service and not for the duration of the war.

VICTIM OF U-BOATBELITTLES MENACE

Spencertown, N. Y.—Joseph Satriale, radio operator on the President Lincoln, recently sunk by a German U-boat, survived the hardships of being adrift many hours only to come home here on furlough and be taken seriously ill, due to reaction.

Satriale, with several ship­mates, w'as adrift 18 hours be­fore being picked up by an American destroyer. He says the U-boats will have no great effect on shipping as long as the American destroyers and chas­ers are turned loose. Every time a piece of floatwood ap­pears on the water’s surface there is a swarm of small boats making for it.

Food savings of millions of Americans during our first year of war enabled this govern­ment to send enormous food shipments abroad for our fighting forces and the Allied nations. Our savings in cereals— out of a short crop— amounted to 154,900,000 bushels; all of which was shipped to Europe. W e increased our meat and fat shipments 844,600,000 pounds. This was America’s “box from home” to our army abroad and the civilians and military forces of the Allied nations.

SHARE OUR SUGAR WITH THE ALLIES

British Get Two Pounds a Month. French Pound and Half,

Italians One Pound.

GERMAN SUPPLY PLENTIFUL

All N ations Perm it Use of Sweetening for Home Preserving Purposes.

America’s new sugar ration of two pounds a month per person is equita­ble when compared with the sugar ra­tion enforced by rigid governmental order in England, France and Italy, na­tions with which we are sharing sugar.

Bach Allied nation—in the matter of sugar consumption—is sharing on near­est possible equal terms the hardships imposed by greatly altered conditions in the world sugar situation.

Formerly classed as a luxury, sugar is now a war time essential. The fair and Just division of this essential is In the hands of the various Allied food controllers.

The United States Food A dm inistra­tion has asked this nation to observe a voluntary sugar ration of two pounds per person a month.

In the other countries at war with Germany sugar is one of the scarce articles on every menu—whether in the households of both rich and poor, or in the hotels.

England today has a sugar ration o f two pounds per month per person. In France the ration is a pound and a half and in Italy it is one pound a month. Agdthe prices in allied coun­tries are f?om £#o to three times as high as in America.jtTf you go t<T"a hotel in England or I tfnTe these days and order tea or coffee th ^ serve absolutely no sugar with lt If you want sugar you must bring it with you.

In England it is allowable to use one-seventh of an ounce of sugar in the preparation of each luncheon. In France many persons carry little sac­charine tablets about with them for use in hotels andjn England rich and poor m ust take" their sugar" with" them if they wish to have sweetened tea while visiting friends, .. _«.’«»• -sixs*'

B efore the w&r sta rted F rance had 625,000 acres devoted to sugar produc­tion. By 1917 the French sugar ac re ­age had decreased to 180,000 acres. Today the French m an or woman w ith a sugar card has no assurance w hatever tha t he or she will be able to actually buy sugar. To buy it, one m ust first find i t

Saccharine is perm itted to be sold and used as a substitu te fo r sugar and the governm ent m anufactures a mix­tu re of saccharine and sugar called “S ta te Sugar,” which is largely used.

German Sugar Ration A dequate.Germany, before the war, produced

a grea t surplus of sugar and exported large quantities. Today the G erm ans (save v irtually gone out of the export business, but have plenty of cheap su jstr for home use.

W holesale prices p revalen t in the Allied nations, according to inform a­tion received by the U nited S tates Food A dm inistration a re as follow^: England, 10 cf-nts a pound; France, 12 cen ts : Italy. 2i> cents.

War Time Sweeteners-©»■ ...

MERICA has several excellent war time sweet­eners that will be used largely during the shortage in the sugar supply.'

They are maple sugar, sygtfps, honey and molasses and may be used in preparing des­serts §nd other dishes requiring sweetening.

When a cup of syrup or honey is used to replace a cup of sugar the liquid in the recipes should be decreased one-fourth. One-third of a cupful of sugar is equivalent to one-third of a cup of honey, about one-

h%lf cup of syrup and about one-half cup of corn sugar. One-fourth of a cup of sugar is equal to about one-half cup of syrup or one-third cup of corn sugar. One table­spoon of Sugar is equal to one tablespoon of honey, about one and one-half tablespoons of syrup and one and one- third tablespoons of com sugar.

Sugar may be saved by the use of raisins, dates, figs, dried pears and fruit pastes used on the breakfast cereals.

Fruit marmalades, butters and jellies should be used to take the place of the ordinary sweetening at a meal and not as accessories to it. Fruits may be preserved without sugar. It may be added when sugar is more plentiful.

Preserving demands this year a thin syrup instead of a heavy syrup.

If sugar is used one-half of the amount may be replaced by another sweetener.

Drying is a means of preserving (without sugar) ap­ples, cherries, strawberries and black caps.

When ready to use they may have added the needed sugar in the form of a syrup. When sugar is more plentiful fruit juices may be made into jellies or may be used as fruit juices with or without sugar, as beverages, fruit gelatins and frozen desserts.

Fresh fruits supply the place of sugar in the diet. They should be used freely. Desserts where sugar is scarce may be made of gelatins, junkets, custards, puddings and cakes.

HAVE THEIR OWN TROUBLES

By No M eans an Easy T ask for Stok­ers to H it the Furnace Door

W hen Ship Rolls.

I w as frank ly g lad to w ork over to w here I could tak e a “half-nelson” round a b a r by th e sta rb o ard bunker.

A heavy slam -banging from* th e op­posite end of the boiler room indicated th a t th ings w ere not going qu ite so sm oothly there, and edging cautiously along, I w as p resen tly able to get som e h in t o f th e cause from th e w ords o f a volubly cursing stoker who lim ped ou t to te ll me th a t the “b linkin’ skip ’a s took charge.” R ubbing a bruised shin and glow ering balefu lly from a blackened eye w hich appeared to have been bum ped aga in s t a boiler, he ex­plained, in language m ore fo rcefu l th an elegant, th a t some im practica l th’eo rist had encouraged them to experim ent w ith w heels on the side o f the skip, w ith th e idea of m aking i t easier to push about over the coal-cluttered deck.

T he sandbag is one of the m ost use­ful p ieces o f m ilita ry equipm ent found anyw here and th e soldier p u ts it to m anifold uses.

C onservation m easures applied by the American people enabled the Unit- J

ed S ta tes to ship to the Allied peoples ! and to our own forces overseas 141,- J 000,000 bushels of w heat and 844,600,- 000 pounds of m eat during tlie past year, valued in all a t $1,400,000,000. T his w as accom plished in the face of a serious food shortage in th is country, bespeaking the w holeheartedness and patrio tism w ith which the American people have m et the food crisis abroad.

Food A dm inistra tor Hoover, in a le t­ter to P residen t W ilson, explains horw the situation w as met. The voluntary conservation program fostered by the Food A dm inistration enabled the piling up of the millions of bushels of w heat during 1917-18 and the shipm ent of m eat during 1917-18.

The to tal value of all food ship­m ents to Allied destinations am ounted to 51,400,000,000, all th is food being bought through or in collaboration with the Food A dm inistration. These figures a re ail based on official reports and rep resen t food exports fo r the harvest year th a t closed Ju n e 30, 1918,

T he shipm ents of m eats and fa ts (including m eat products, dairy prod­ucts, vegetable oils, etc.,) to Allied des­tinations were as follow s:Fiscal year 1 916-1 7 . . . .2,166,500,000 lbs. Fiscal year 1917-1S.. ..8,011,100,000 lbs.

Saving Ice.In response to a req u es t by th e food

adm in istra tion th a t th e use of a r t i­ficial ice be reduced to a minimum, a la rge hotel ot New York city has post­ed a notice in each room asking th a t guests use ice sparingly. T he re su lt has been a reduction in th e calls fo r ice w ater.

Increase . r . . .............. 844,600,000 lbs.Our slaughterable animals a t th e be­

ginning ot th* last fiscal y ear w ere no t appreciably larger than th e year be­fore and particularly in hogs; they were probably less. T he increase in shipments Is due to conservation and the ex tra w eight of an im als added by our farm ers.

The full effect of these efforts began to bear th e ir best resu lts in the la s t ha lf of the fiscal year, when the ex­ports to the Allies w ere 2,133,100,000

| pounds, a s against 1,266,300,000 pounds In the sam e period of the year before. Tf is com pares w ith an average of801.000.000 pounds .of to ta l exports for th e sam e half years in the th ree-year pre-w ar period.

In cereals and cereal products re ­duced to term s of cereal bushels our shipm ents to Allied destinations have been :Fiscal year 1916-17. .259.900,000 bushels Fiscal year 1017-18..340,800,000 bushels

Increase . ........... 80,900,000 bushelsOf these cereals our sh ipm ents of

the prim e4>readstu^ s in the fiscal year 1917-18 to Allied destinations w ere : W heat 131.000,000 bushels and of rye13.900.000 bushels, a to ta l of 144,900,- 000 bushels.

T he exports to Allied destinations during the fiscal year 1916-17 w ere : W heat 135,100,000 bushels and rye2.300.000 bushels, a to ta l of 137,400,000 bushels. In addition some 10,000,000 bushels of 1917 w heat a re now in p o rt for Allied destina tions or en route thereto . The to ta l sh ipm ents to Allied countries from our la s t harves t of w heat w ill be therefore , about 141,000,- 000 lr ushels, o r a to ta l of 154,900,000 bushels of prim e breadstuffs. In ad­dition to th is we have shipped som«10.000.000 bushels to n eu tra ls depend­ent upon us, and we have received some Im ports from o th er quarters.

“T his accom plishm ent of our people In th is m a tte r stands ou t even more clearly if we bear in mind th a t we had available in the fiscal year 1916-17 from net carry-over and as surplus over our norm al consum ption about200.000.000 bushels of w heat which we w ere able to export th a t year w ithout trenching on our home loaf,” Mr. Hoover said. “T his las t year, however, owing to the larpfe fa ilu re of the 1917 w heat crop, we had available from net carry-over and production and im ports only ju s t about our normfil consum p­tion. T herefore our w heat shipm ents to Allied destina tions rep resen t ap ­proxim ately savings from our own w heat bread.

"These figures, however, do not fully convey the volume of the eTTon and sacrifice made during the past year hv the whole American people. De­spite the magnificent effort of our ag ri­cultural population in p lan ting a much increased acreage in 1917, not only was there a very large fa ilu re in w heat, lull also the corn failed to m ature prop­erly, and our. em u is our dom inant crop.

"1 am su re ,” Mr. Hoover w rote in concluding his report, “ th a t all the millions of our people, ag ricu ltu ra l .as well as urban, who have contributed to these resu lts should feel a very | definite sa tisfaction th a t in a year of ; universal food shortages in the north- : ern hem isphere all of jthose people joined together against Germ any have come through into sight of tlie coming harvest n st only w ith w ealth and strength fully m aintained, but w ith only tem porary periods of hardship.

“It is difficult to distinguish betw een various sections of our people— the homes, public eating places, food trades, urban or ag ricu ltu ra l popula- i tions—in assessing credit fo r these re- 1 suits, but no one will deny the domi­nan t p art of th “ American women." j

T he big drive to save sugar in New Jersey is under way. I t w as launched by W illiam S. Tyler, Federal Food Ad­m in is tra to r fo r the S tate , and he is asking every man, woman and child to help him put it over. H e is asking the people to get along on two pounds per person ner m onth from now un til the n ex t sugar crop is received, w hich will be la te in the fall.

New Jersey residen ts a re as p a tr io t­ic a s thoise of any o ther sta te , and Mr. T y le r believes they will do th e ir b it in th e sugar conservation cam paign, ju s t a s they have done th e ir b it in o ther cam paigns w hich w ere designed to Win th e w ar.

T he biggest aid th e A m erican people can give to our so ld iers fighting abroad rig h t now is to save sugar th a t our sol­d iers and th e soldiers and peoples of th e E uropean countries jo ined w ith us will have some sugar.

We a re asked to get along on a household allow ance of two pounds p e r person p e r m onth. T h a t is fo r use in our tea, coffee, pies, puddings, cereals and in cooking.

We can do it if o th er peoples can. E ngland does it, h e r allow ance being tw o pounds, the sam e as ours. F rance does it, h er allow ance being a pound and n half. I ta ly does it, h er allow ­ance being one pound (w hen she gets it.)

P lenty for Canning.I t isn ’t going to be a hardsh ip fo r us

to live on two pounds per person per m onth in our household requirem ents. B u t there is canning and p reserv ing to be done, and New Jersey is a big can­ning and preserving s ta te .

Well, th e re w ill be an ex tra allow ­ance o f twenty-five pounds p e r fam ily, o r m ore if it is required, fo r canning purposes. S ta te Food A dm in istra to r T y le r says can all you can, bu t can. And can so a s to save sugar.

Can w ithou t sugar, o r can w ith little sugar or can w ith o th e r sw eeteners, such a s syrups, m aple p roducts and honey. You can can w ithout su g a r and sw eeten the p reserves w ith sugar w hen you ea t them in w inter, when su g a r w ill be m ore plentiful.

T he reason th ere is a shortage of su g a r is th a t th e crops have been sm aller th is y e a r than expected. T here is a shortage of sh ips to carry su g a r from the producing countries to the consum ing countries. T he ships a re being used to tran sp o rt so ld iers to Eu-

I rope to drive th e K aiser’s arm ies back in to G erm any. And they a re doing it too. F u rtherm ore , the G erm an ad ­vance, w hich w as s ta rted in M arch, overrun the beet sugar country in France, and th e G erm ans rdestroyed F rench sugar refineries. W e a re re ­gain ing some of th a t land, bu t tlie c ro p s and fac to ries a re gone.

Rules for the Grocers.The policy of Food A dm inistra to r

T y le r is to save th e New Jersey fru it crop and conserve <mr sugar supply.

H e has asked you to sign a pledge to your grocer w hen you ■apply fo r your sugar. The grocer will sell you tw o pounds a t a time, and d u ring th e m onth he will sell you a to ta l o f tw e pounds fo r each m em ber of you r fam­ily.

Otr he can sell you your en tire m onth’s supply, based on tw o pounds fo r each person in you r fam ily if he desires to. T his is optional w ith him.

H e Will have tw o pledges. T h e re w ill be provision on th e p ledges fo r your nam e, address, th e am ount of your purchase, the date and the num ­ber of persons rn your fam ily.

You will pledge yourself and your household to lim it your uses of sugar ♦except fo r canning and preserv ing) to tw o pounds per person per m onth. You also pledge th a t (neither you nor a n y m em ber of your household Will buy an y o th e r su g a r (except fo r canning or p reserv ing) o r o therw ise seek to ob­ta in possession of any sugar during th e m on th ’s jjpriod.

T lu s is very simple, very easy and very honorable. A nd it. w ill be very effective in beating thie K aiser.

Whe® you w an t su g a r fo r canning apply to your local food adm in is tra to r fo r a certificate, and When he fills it ou t p resen t it t8 your g rocer fo r your purchase.

To the grocer w ho sells su g a r fo r canning the Food A dm inistration w ill replenish h is stock when h e tu rn s into the S ta te Food A dm in istra to r the cer­tificates he received from th e custom er.

Sugar C ertificates.E very tim e a person w an ts to make

] a purchase of tw enty-five pounds of j sugar for canning or preserv ing he j m ust get a certificate.

G rocers m ust sell only to regu lar custom ers. They a re depended upon

j to help accom plish a fa ir d is tribu tion I o f sugar am ong th e ir custom ers arid

m ust lim it th e ir sales in each case ae- j cordingly. They m ust keep tlie lists

of custom ers’ nam es and am ounts of j pu rchases and each week tu rn in a du-

p l.ca te to the County Food Adm inis­tra to r. T he la tte r checks up on these l.'sis to h e o V.ir.t there is no “rep ea t­in g ”

Food A dm in istra to r T yler also w ants to slop su g a r iioa .-ding. H oarding is to have m ore sugar than is allowed by th e rules. T he penalty fo r hoarding may be S.>,000 line, two y ea rs’ im prison­m ent, o r both. Any person may re ­p o rt any ens.e o f hoarding he know s oi to the county food adm in istra to r. \

CANNING FRUITSWITHOUT SUGAR

F ru it o f any kind su itab le fo r can­ning may b§ preserved w ithou t any sugar. W hen th e fru it is consumed the sugar can be added exactly as is done w ith fresh fru it. I f tlie fru it w hen canned is thoroughly ripe it m ay be consum ed w ithout th is addition of su g a r and is sw eet enough fo r m any tastes.

The o rd inary m ethods of home can­ning a re used. T hese a re the “cold pack” and “hot pack” methods.

F o r the form er th e f ru it is w ashed, peeled, p itted or cored a s needed and packed tig h t in clean, scalded cans or ja rs . W ater is then added, boiling iu th e case o f cans and as h o t as possible w ithout crack ing the g lass ln th e case o f ja rs . Scalded caps o r covers and rubbers a re then pu t in place loosely and the filled cans heated in a vessel of boiling w a te r fo r tw en ty to fo rty m inutes. An o rd inary w ash boiler fu r­nished w ith a w ire screen o r a wooden g ra ting on w hich to p lace th e ja r s is su itab le fo r th is purpose. T he boiler should contain enough w a te r to rise about ha lfw ay up the sides of th e jars.

W hile s till a t the boiling tem pera tu re the ja r s o r cans a re rem oved, sealed and placed to cool, lying horizontally o r upside down.

F o r th e “hot p ack” m ethod tlie p re ­pared fru it is placed in a large po t on the stove w ith a little w a te r to p reven t burning. A fte r heating to the boiling po in t and cooking un til th e fru it is ten d er and some of the ju ice has ex­uded it is poured into th e enns or h e a t­ed ja rs by m eans of a p erfo ra ted or w ire ladle and a wide funnel. Suffi­c ien t ju ice from th e pot is then added ju s t to cover the fru it and th e cans o r ja r s sealed. These a re then heated In the boiler fo r about tw en ty m inutes. F o r a second batch of the sam e fru it the ju ice rem ain ing in the pot should he used instead of w ate r fo r the pre­lim inary cooking.

TO AID IN SAVING SUGAR.

By Use of Other Sw eeten ers in Cook­ing, P reserving and Use of All Foods.

W henever a recipe is published call­ing fo r sugar as one of th e com ponent p a r ts the F edera l Food A dm inistra tion for New Jersey requests th a t some o ther sw eeteners be m entioned in place of sugar, to w i t :

In canning and p reserv ing one-third by w eight of the o rig inal am ount of sugur can be replaced by syrup. C an­ning m ay also be done w ithou t any sugar, tlie sw eetening be left un til the p reserves a re used in w inter.

Syrups of any kind can be used to sw eeten cakes, ices and desserts , and th is may be published in recipes.

If a recipe calls fo r one cup of sugar, one cup of honey o r one and tw o-tliirds cups of syrup can be used instead.

I f honey or syrup is used the am ount o f liquid called fo r in th e recipe m ust be reduced one-fourth cup fo r every cup of honey o r syrup used.

Use sw eet dried fru its , such as dates, ra is in s and figs, to sw eeten de­se r ts and cerea ls and in p lace of candy.

Use honey, syrups, m aple sugar and m olasses to sw eeten deserts and bev­erages, in m aking cakes, frosting and as fa r a s possible in cann ing and p re ­serving.

Can fru its w ithout sugar and m ake f ru it pastes.

Omit sugar from tea, coffee and ce­reals.

SUGAR SAVING IN COOKING.

1. B ake -.apples o r pears w ith a lit­tle w ate r fo r.severa l hours un til a rich syrup forme. If m ore sw eetening is desired add a little hon ty or molasses.

.2. Cook dried p runes w ithout sugar in the w ater in w hich they w ere soaked until liquid is alm ost boiled aw ay. If m ore ju ice is w an ted add wa^er to the syrup. T he long, slow cooking de­velops a rich flavor, and th e addition of sugar is unnecessary.

3. S ubstitu te syrup o r honey fo r sug­a r in cake. One cup of sy rup or honey w ill take the plaoe of one cup of sugar an a one-fourth of a cup of liquid. Iii alm ost any cake recipe th e syrup or honey may be used fo r one-half of the sugar.

TO INCREASE POULTRY AND EGG SU PPL Y .

E very com m ercial breeder, every farm er, every back-yaed poultry raiser, is urged to keep these aim s steadily in v iew :

1. Keep b e tte r poultry . S tand ­ard-bred poultry im proves th e qual­ity and increases production.

2. Select healtlry. vigorous b reed ­ers to produce strong chicks.

3. H atch early to produce fall and w in te r layers.

4. P reserve eggs when cheap for home use.

D. P roduce in fe rtile eggs, except for hatching.

0. Cull the flocks to elim inate unprofitable prod uce rs.

7. Keep a sm all back-yard flock to supply th e fam ily table.

8. Grow as much poultry feeu as possible.

9. E a t m ore p o u ltry 'an d eggs to conserve the m eat supply.

Lesson Seen for the W^ary W orld in th e Invariable Ending of L ittle

Three-Year-Gld’s Stories.

A w rite r in the A tlan tic M onthly described, some m onths ago, a little person of some th ree years w ho w as insa tiab ly fond of stories. W hen there was no one to tell them to h e r she m ade them up herself. The w rite r w as im pressed w ith the invariab le end­ing of these stories, w hich w as a l­ways, “ ‘And him w ent home to liim’s m uvver.’ ” “B ears, iions, tigers, even elephants and crocodiles p ass th rough th e m ost ag ita ting and unusual adven­ture, bu t in the end they all go home to th e ir m other.” And the w rite r adds th a t th is is an astonishing b it of w is­dom to be evolved by a person of three.

T here have been m any pre ten tious philosophies of life offered us these la s t few years, and i t m ay tak e some of us no little tim e to come down to one so modest. B ut th e signs a re th ickening fa s t th a t th e w hole world, disappointed w ith its g rand policies and enfeebled w ith its philosophies, is V a n n in g to long fo r som ething like this. I t m ay he a blow to one’s pride, bu t th e g rea tes t philosophy of life has long since been sta ted . “W hen he cam e to him self he said, I w ill arise and go to m y fa th e r.”—T he Sunday School Tim es.

Expert in English Com position May H ave Had Som e Criticism t o ’Make

But She Could Not M isundir- stand the M eaning.

T he m em bers of the English class - had filed ou t o f the rec ita tio n room,

w ith the exception of Gridley, who, by special request, w as now standing a t the teach er’s desk,

i To the casual observer, G ridley w as a boy of about fifteen, w ith a w iry

! fram e, a w ell-shaped head tha tched j w ith straw colored hair, a large m outh and gray-blue eyes.

i “I am su rp rised th a t you should of- ' fe r th is as an exercise in English com- ; position,” Miss S tanhope said w ith a note of sarcasm in her voice, point-

I ing to several sheets of p ap e r th a t | lay on her desk.

“You told me to tak e any sub jec t th a t I w as In terested in, if it w as w orth while, and then p u t p len ty of tim e into it, and I did. I t took m e more than two hours,” p ro tested G rid­ley.

“I should hard ly call th e sub jec t w orth w hile,” began M iss Stanhope.

“It w as th e best gam e th ere ’s been th is season,” said Gridley.

“We will le t th a t pass,” th e teach er continued. “W hat I object .to is th e language th a t you have used. W hat am I to m ake of such expressions as th e se : ‘T he south paw a r t is t ,’ ‘a free tick e t to th e in itia l bag,’ ‘Duffy w as nailed a t th e p la te ,’ ‘two of th e v is­ito rs crossed th e pan’? Really, G rid­ley, do you call that E nglish?”

tiridley’B mouth widened in a grin, flon’t knew about English, Miss

Stanhope, but I guess i t ’s U nited States,” he Bald.

Miss Stanhope sm iled herself, a l­though she w ould have p re fe rred no t to. She took h e r specialty , w hich w as English, very seriously, and It pained her w hen h e r pupils did not.

“I t m ight be Choctaw, as f a r a s I am concerned,” she said. “I t conveys absolutely no m eaning.”

“Why, d idn’t you ever see a base- 1, si’il gam e?” exclaim ed Gridley.

“No, I believe not," she adm itted , and she perceived a t once th a t h e r confession of ignorance w as fa r m ore in te resting to G ridley th an any d is­play of h e r know ledge had ever been. T he happy though t occurred to h e r to tak e advantage of th e fac t. “No,” she repeated , “I know nothing about base­ball, bu t I should like to learn . Sup­pose you try being th e teach er and see If you can m ake th is a ll c lea r to me. You will have to begin a t th e begin­ning and be very p a tien t w ith me.”

“Do you m ean it? ” said Gridley, w ith th e Joy o f th e en th u s ias t In his eyes.

Then fo r m ore th an an hour he ex­pounded baseball, w hile th e English teacher fa ith fu lly groped h e r w ay to an understanding .

“You m ust th ink m e very stup id ,” she said m ore th an once, and Gridley, although he did no t d ispu te her, re­doubled h is efforts to express h is m ean­ing In w ords fitted to h is pupil’s capac­ity. A t th e end of th e hou r M iss S tanhope w as p re tty well versed in th e rud im ents of th e game, and, inci­dentally, G ridley had gained a li t t le in English and a good deal in h is lik ing fo r th e teacher.

“I ’ll hand in a b e tte r composition nex t tim e,” he assured h e r a s he finally w ent his way.

The prom ised composition w as duly received, although a f te r th e lapse of some fou r years, and it cam e from “som ew here in F rance .”

“P erhaps you have fo rgo tten me,” G ridley w rote, “bu t I haven’t fo rgo t­ten you, o r th e hou r th a t w e spen t one F riday afternoon, going over my baseball ‘piece.’ I little thought th a t I should not see you again, bu t we moved from th e city qu ite unexpect­edly the nex t week. Now I am fa r­th e r aw ay than ever from the old school. B ut here is tbe composition th a t I prom ised to pass in, no t about baseball th is tim e, b u t about the big w ar over here. I ’m in a h a rd e r school than B ayport H igh and th e re ’s no chance to play hooky. B ut I ’m glad to be here and i t ’s up to me to m ake good,”

Miss S tanhope accepted th e s ta te ­ment, not fo r its elegance b u t a s evi­dence of the se r io u s 'p u rp o se of G rid­ley—little G ridley of the straw -colored h a ir and the contagious grin.

“T here will be som ething doing when we fellow s get in to the gam e,” w rote Gridley, “a^d, tak e It from me, we will hand the k a ise r h is a ll righ t.”

The thought w as badly expressed bu t Miss S tanhope th rilled a t th e sp ir it behind the words.

“I t won’t be long now before i t is all over and I am back in litt le old Am erica again ,” th e le t te r w ent on.

T he te a rs cam e to Miss S tanhope’s eyes. "Ah, soldier boy,” she thought, “lt is well th a t you over there have fa ith , w hile so m any of u s back here have only hope. P erhaps your fa ith will help to m ake your prophecy come true!”

“I guess,” said Gridley, a t th e end, “th a t th is w on’t tak e a very high m ark as English, bu t,” and th e teacher, a l­though 'je r own eyes w ere a litt le dim, could alm ost see th e tw inkle in h is gray-blue ones as he w rote th e words, “perhaps i t w ill get by a s ‘U nited S tates.’ ”—Y outh’s Companion.

x Shark river is the playground for hundreds of pleasure seekers these days, and scores of boats can be seen at almost any hour of the day on the bay. People divide their at- tenf^n between fishing and crab­bing end find success in each of the srorts. Crabs are plentiful and lnrae in size and fish are running well, especially snappers Some big catches of these young blue fish h;'s been made the past week. Car­penter’s pavilion is doing a thriving business.

In the rcae on Shark river Satur- I day afternoon between boats in the 1 restricted class of Belmar Yacht cub, Samuel E. Hunter’s “Jackie” won. Albert W. Moyer’s boat, the “Camille,” was a close second. The order in which the other boats [ finished was: The “Wiljmvn” owned by W. F.

contingent o f Am erican forces sen t to F rance as a w ar correspondent for the N ew York Tribune and had exceptional opportunities to stu dy conditions on the W estern front.)

I t Is ev ident now th a t G eneral Foch has delivered a sm ashing blow aga in s t the G erm an arm y in h is coun ter a t ­tack . H is blow h as achieved th ree definite resu lts . I t h as pu t P a ris p rac ­tically ou t o f danger, it h a s im paired the m orale o f the G erm an arm y and it has offered convincing proof o f the fighting efficiency of th e A m erican arm y. T hese th ings a re m ore im pon ta n t th an the cap tu re of p risoners and guns, although the toll of each has been sufficient to constitu te a d is tinc t m ateria l loss to the G erm an arm y.

I t w ill be well if A m erican public opinion is no t led to overestim ate the Im portance of the drive. No good will come of any belief th a t th e re tre a t in ­d ica tes a general sm ashup of the G er­m an arm y. T h ere seem s to be no ground fo r such an opinion. T his may indeed be th e beginning of th e end, b u t th e re is s till a pow erful m ilita ry m a­chine to be dealt w ith. I t is no t even probable th a t th e G erm an arm y has absolu tely lost the in itia tive. T here m ay still be G erm an offensives of g rea t power. B ut the situa tion 'of M arch is no t likely’ to be repeated . A balance o f pow er has been resto red on th e W est f ro n t if no t a preponderance.

Ready to Strike Back.U nder the ea rlie r G erm an blows Foch

w as compelled to m ain ta in a stric tly defensive a ttitude . The increase in pow er con tribu ted by the A m ericans gives him a sufficiency of reserves to strik e back w henever a good opportu­n ity offers. B ut the p resen t drive w hich has sm ashed the G erm ans is not, s tric tly speaking,' an allied offensive. I t has been a m ovem ent to tu rn the G erm ans o u t of newly won positi9ns and to keep them on the move once the dislodgem ent w as effected. A general allied offensive m ay be expected Just as soon as a d is tinct preponderance of pow er has been established by th e a l­lies. T h a t m om ent is in sight. The ra te a t w hich A m erican troops a re go­ing to F ran ce assu res Foch of th e u lti­m ate possession o f a force large enough to pu t tho G erm ans on the de­fensive all along the line. G reat re ­su lts m ay well be expected then.

F o r the p resen t there should be en­couragem ent enough in the p resen t move even if it has fallen som ew hat short of th e overoptim istic p redictions of a few. T he ta lk which we heard a few days ago of pinching off the en tire arm y of th e crown prince w as no t very well founded. A fter all, th ere a re even narrow er sa lien ts on the fro n t than the M arne pocket. Of course Luden- dorff’s exp lanation of how it all h ap ­pened is som ew hat sophistic. W hile it Is tru e th a t he has been able to ex­tr ic a te his arm y w ithout having lt en­tire ly destroyed, th e German G eneral Staff can hard ly p ride itse lf on having ven tured into a position which made so p rec ip ita te a re tre a t necessary. The m ovem ent has been too fa s t fo r T eu­tonic com fort in m any p a rts of the line.

Enem y Seeks to Gain Tim e.T he G erm an policy during the re ­

tr e a t h as been to gain time. W hile it is true th a t th e G erjnans had no in ­ten tion of m aking a perm anen t stand a t some of th e points w here they re ­sisted the allied advance, they did have" every in ten tion of slowing up th e ir pu rsuers, and th is they have notably failed to do.

The G erm an re tirem en t above anti below A lbert m ay mean an abandon­m ent of advanced positions all along th e line. B ut it is probable th a t the G erm ans w ill hazard a t leas t one more th ru s t before they se ttle down definite­ly to the defensive w arfa re w hich will be forced upon them in a few m onths.

T he trad itio n of G erm an invincibili­ty, w hich hnd Been carefu lly rebu ilt a f te r the V erdun failu re , Is down again. T he G erm an soldier know s now th a t re tre a t is a w ord he m ust accept. He has learned to go back, and in his forced m arches aw ay from P a ris he has become a som ew hat less efficient soldier. G erm an confidence has been shaken. T his is th e fii-st stetf in still m ore v io lent ca ta stroph ies w hich a re to fall on the T euton arm ies.

The big job is still to be done, bu t th ere is every reason fo r optimism. Am erica knows now th a t she possesses the so rt of men who can give th e allies the aid they need. The only necessity now is to keep th e m en and the sup­plies moving as they have done from our shores to F rance. To do th is It is hardly necessary to say th a t money Is necessary, m ore money th an w as ever raised before in th e h is to ry of tho world. There, is ju s t one w ay to m ake su re th a t tills money will be forthcom ­ing in the q u an tity needed to keep our troops going. And th a t is for the in­dividual A m erican to m ake it h is per­sonal concern to see th a t all th a t he has tqf lend is converted Into L iberty Bondi

One of the zoological de ta ils connect­ed w ith th e r a t is its fa ilu re to sus­ta in any discoverable re la tion w ith th e balance of na tu re . T he balance of n a tu re seem s rem arkably even all over th e world, fo r no k ind of life can become w holly ex tinc t w ithout affect­ing prejud icially the general environ­m ent.

T he r a t seem s th e so lita ry excep­tion to th e general experience th a t in ­terference w ith th e fau n a of an envi­ronm ent inv ites d isaste r th rough an upset o f th e balance of na tu re , says a ■v^riter in C u rren t Opinion. O ther form s of life, vegetable or anim al, u p ­se t i t by th e ir absence. I t w as thought u n til recen tly th a t a pecu liar species of flea could th rive upon th e ra t alone, b u t some doubt is throw n upon th is idea by rep o rts of p lague investiga­tors.

T here is, how ever, an o th e r view of th e connection of th e r a t w ith the balance of n a tu re , according to the P a ris R evue Scientifique. T he ro ­den t has achieved its task , perform ed Its duty. T he w ork w as accom plished in p a s t centuries, probably in Asia. R a ts w ill a ttack very la rge organism s. Even the elephant is no t respected . I t Is w idely known th a t ce rta in varie ties o f A siatic e lephan ts have a g rea t d read of ra ts . Cases a re recorded in w hich a huge e lephant has succum bed to, w ounds m ade in its fee t by ra ts . T he ra ts gnaw th e hoofs of horses w hen i t can get a t them . I t w ould ex term inate the pig if i t could find a n eu tra l in m an.

In brief, a ll th e evidence suggests th a t th e re h as raged In th e p a s t a g rea t w a rfa re betw een th e r a t and certa in g igantic fo rm s of life. T he brow n r a t seeing to have h ad m uch to do w ith th e extinction of certa in g rea t b easts in A sia. P e rh ap s th e m astodon w as rou ted by th e ra t . In any event, th e r a t m ay have p layed a glorious p a r t in e lim inating th e bulky m onsters th a t in tim e p a s t k ep t m an down num erically ju s t a s today the robin p lays a glorious p a r t in elim ­inating from th e soil th e p ests th a t o therw ise w ould keep th e crops down.

T he very voracity of th e r a t m ust have been of g rea t zoological im por­tance w hen i t had to a ttack , perhaps, a herd of m astodons. T he ra ts tra v ­eled, then, evidently, in sw arm s.

Dried Eggs.T he high cost of eggs in E ngland
