It cannot help being felt that in view of the great sacrifice which is Jbeing made by the young men of the {United States, who are giving their J@ll for the sake of their country, that those at home and those for whom ithey are fighting or are preparing to fight should be anxious to do their part to see that the soldiers are pro- wided with wholesome recreation, with proper” quarters where they can con- gregate during hours when they are oft duty for social purposes and whers they can find the accommodations for or_even a larger ardount than we gid in’ the past five months, we can effect a still greater saving and witiout de- nying ourselves propet sustenance tak care of the wants of those who are fighting our fight.

It consists merely of sewing a flat linen button on the reverse of the bow, and making a buttonhole to take it at the desired point.

STORIES OF THE WAR Visit to Grave of First Three Ameri- cans to Fall, ly the lifted heart, held high in faith and courage, can bear the weight of guilt and chastening, which would otherwise bring fear and discourage- ment., Also, the heart s Jifted in reverence toward the great Power ‘‘to Whom alone Lelong the issues of life and death.” Now, in this terrible hour of des- tiny, when all the hope of the world depends on the bloody struggle and unstinting sacrifice of the people who see and know the truth, and are will- ing to suffer and die for it, the time has come for the “Sursum corda.” Only the lifted heart can Iift the load and believe steadfastly in the ulti- mate triumph of right over wrong; only the lifted heart can “endure unto the end” The time is dark with doubt and terror; sometimes the bal- ance scems almost even, as the strife rocks back and forth. Then come the voices that say, “We can never win. There must be a. compromise.” And the faith of,men is assailed by the dreadful outcry for peace—the de- mand for the treasure before it has been earned by the last and utmost effort. - THEATRE LATEST WAR NEWS IN HEARST-PATHE WEEKLY EARL WILLIAMS in THE GRELL MYSTERY A POWERFUL DRAMA OF LOVE AND MYSTERY BIRDS OF A FEATHER ‘'wo Part Comedy to be beaten off with fist and the butt of a r mounted and trained on the enemy The gun was captured; | Wi sued in constructing the Connecticut estel The towns and they received ‘Phe latter, of course, Deared.

Stick yaur fork into the wing so as not to interfere with the knife; cut through the joint and loosen the meat surrounding ‘it; pull down with the down roast. the breast with the wing.
