F. who is a great stickler for discipline and military, forms, Most generals are that, but this one is a rég- ular martingt. The soldier who fails to salute and to “snap it out” when the general is around is in for an ex- tended spellof that intensive form of culinary labor knowf-as “kitchen po- lice,” or for somethfng worse. One afternoon the general was driv- ing along when his car met a soldier on foot. The enlisted man stared hard at the vehicle and {ts august passen- ger, but made no move to extend the required courtesy. The general was Indignant. He or- dered his driver to stop and hailed the is plodding private in his best military veice, “What do you mean by salute me?” he roared. “I beg your pardon, sir, but 1 didn't know you were a general,” apologized the soldier, standing at attention. “You didn’t know I was a general, eh? Well, didn’t you see those two stars on my car? Don't you know what two stars mean?” “Yes, sir, I know what they mean. They mean that you have two sons in the army,” said the “buck.” . The general told’ this story himself that evening at the. staff mess and now his aids and the other staff offi- cers know that he Isn't such a “bear” as they had thought him.—Exchange. —_—_—_—_ failing to _ WAS A NURSE IN FOUR WARS English.

Most varieties have a high nutritive value, due to their fat and protein content. Chestnuts stand in a class by them- selves, being largely carbohydrate in composition. They are good boiled and mashed, Serve as‘potatoes or use as stuffing for-a fowl, Butternuts, black walnuts, English walnuts, filberts, hazel nuts, hickory nuts, ‘pecans and almonds all may be used as fat savers, for they are especially rich In fat. | It is certain that if you have on hand a large supply of. nuts you can add at- tractive and varied dishes to your medis at little expense.. The protein and fat are combined In the nut much as they are in meat, which makes it a good substitute for meat. Vegetarians have learned to make many attractive combination dishes from nuts, such as hut loaves, croquettes and ~ souffies, which they serve in place of meat. How Britain Saved the Babies.

For the first time in the modern history of Britain there has been milk enough for all the babies, and good milk.” us a Only Small Transgression.
