Without a contest, and with the need fully in mind of selecting men who can be relied upon to give a good ac- count of themselves in handling such duties as they may be called upon to in administering the affa of the city, the republicans in their caucus tominated men for places on the iicket at the June election who are well known to the voters of the c men who are fully qualified to inte pret and meet the demands of the citi- zens and men who are directly intes - |one engine. that the selection of the course via the Axores is the safer for the distance is less and under the present conditions it is difficult“to tell when troul_sle is going to devélop.

This may not shake the confidence of the British operators who are plan- ning to fly to Ireland but there would be no surprise if they should decide at the last moment to change their plans and attempt the flight across in two jumps instead of one. THE FIFTH LOAN. It will be some days yet before it will be known just what the total of the subscriptions to the Victory loan is, but it is only what was expected when the announcement is already made to the effect that there is a heavy oversubscription. The situation is much the same in this last issue as it has been in pre- vious ones. the results is so'far behind the actual subscriptions that it is difficult to tell just where the loan really stands from day to day, while there are always a great number of last minute purchases of ' varying sizes which play a most important part in reaching and pass- ing the goal. Thus though it looked for a time as if the desired amount was not going to be secyred or as if it would only he raised by alloting it to the banks, it is hapoily dissipated. It is a most creditable showing on the part of the people of this country. Ten million or more according to the 2stimate have come forward with their dollars for thé purnose of letting the government use them to meet the ex- penses that have piled up in obtaining the victory that was sought. The ap- peals to patriotism have not fallen = upon barren ground. while the advan- tages which are to be gained through such investments have not been over- looked, even though conditions are | comewhat different than they were while the fighting was in progress. There have of course been many large subscriptions but according to the terms of the issue the small investors will not he crowded out by the large ones, and whether or not the final fig- vres show an oversubscription of a shows a duty well done. The coun- try can well be proud of the way in which the people have come forward ested in seeing that the city govern-|in all five loans, ment is conducted on a basis of eff-| T — clency in all departments and at alll THE SCHLESWIG PLEBISCITE. tim: The individual qualifications of the fen are such that they cannot fail to inake their appeal to the voler who is secking to place the business of his gity in the hands of men good of judgment who have had experience in meeting similar if not the exact lems they will be confronted with .glected mnext Junme.

Not all the help that was given to distressed Europe came from the army of fi that we sent across the At- Jant. Not all of it came om the help ll’u' was rendered by our naval forces in the operations connected with the convoying o or -the planting of mine fields. While all of that work was of a telling nature it cannot be overlooked that a tremen- dous service been rendered in the way of getting relief to the starving, homtlesz, smrnrmn peoples who un- derwent. some of the Worst experiences of the war, It iz therefore an impressive state- ment that is made by the American relief administration to the effect that there has been sent to different ports of Europe a total of 1,012,050 tons of foodstuffs, fats, milk, clothing and sundries in order to reduce the mis- ery and horrors brought on by the war. Food has been drawn extensively from this country, the report showing that $54,000,000 worth has gone to the Czécho-Slovaks, the Jugo-Slavs and the Rumanians alone among those who have been liberated from the direful conditions under the days of control by the central powers. There are also large shipments which have been made to Poland, #inland, certain sections of Turkey and states horder- Ing on the Baltic. The war cert nly left a hungry Europe when those upon whom de- pendence was placed railed to meet the requirements and in the days which are to come it can never be overlooked what a big part this coun- iry through its relief administration has been playing in helping to over- eome the situation, and the end is not yet * THE LESSONS OF THE FLIGHT. With the arrival of the American 'weaplanes in Newfoundland it has been demonstrated that there is still some uncertainty in regard to the de- pendence that can be placed upon the motive power of such machines. This distance of a thousand miles along tha coast has been covered in two flights. In getting to Nova Scotia two of the three machines made it without a shitch. The third was forced by en- gine trouble to put back to the start- ing poini although it still expects to catch up. In going from Novd Scotia 10 Newfoundland the two machines that attempted it completed the di tdnce but one was forced to return be- cause of propeller trouble though it was not delayed long. Thus one of the three has been able to make the first two legs without trouble and with the longest, most dangerous and un- certain leg of the journey across the Atlantic faced. Jn this cennection it would appear | staunch | for faithful| Regardless of the part which others |are taking relative Yo the provisions of the peace trealy that has been Submitied to Germany, there is heard no opposition from Denmark. That country was a neutral and therefore it was to be ecxpected that it would have to be satisfied with- the outcome, although in view of the situation there. concerning the territory which had Dbeen taken years ago by Germany un- der a promise that a plebiscite would be held to determine under which government tbe land should remhin but never carried out, Denmark looked {to the peace conference to right the wrong. The Danes sought the return of the northern part of Schleswif is inhabited almest entirely by Danes, by permitting the people to decide thelr future nationality, but the conference has apparently consdered that they are entitled to even more than they have asked for it has divided Schles- wig into three parts for the purpoze of a plebiscite, the residents thereof to determine on successive periods their future government. Of the northern part there can be no question as to what the vote will be. That the mid- dle zone will show a considerable ma- jority in favor of Danish rule is to be southern zone, though it is strongly German, it is possible that this will be looked upon as an opportunity to pul away from German control and carry out the desire which has been strongly expressed of becoming joined with Denmark for economic and other rea- sons. Thus it appears regardless of the outcome of the plebiscite ~ that Denmark’s interests have been care- fully looked after in this respect for it is rather unusual under such con- ditions to get more than fs asked. EDITOR!AL NOTES. There is a whole lot of satisfaction in knowing that the Liberty loans are over as well as over the top. | When the Czechs gained a footing in Nagyszecseny it must have been the next thing to getting mired. One thing is sure and that is that the 80,000 word peae treaty will never become listed among -the best sellers in Germany. It ought to be time to get an ex- pression from the former kaiser as to what he thinks of the terms of the peace treaty. Now of course the other members of {the central powers are anxiously | waiting to find out what justice means in their case, The man on the corner says: . The time is coming when a whole lot of constructive criticism of the backyard gardens can be done with a hoe.

A pinch of salt in the coffee lessens the necessity for so much sugar. Beans baked with tiny sausages are a good luncheon dish en a cold day. If mayonnaise is covered ?lolely in a jar it will keep in a place a week. With dry, white fishes serve a rich butter sauce; with fat fish plain lemon. Custards can be sweetened with corn sirup if it is desirable to save sugar. It thJ bread is not quite as light as it should be try using a little more yeast. Leftover chocolate can be useful in making a Bavarian cream. There are certain salts in milk which make it indispensable as a body build- er. A few marshmallows stirred into fidge when heating will make it rich- er and creamier: In almost any recipe which calls for sugar you can cut dewn the amount jone-quarter and the sweet will never be missed. Vary mayonnaise by adding vinegar, whipped cream, powdered corlander | seed, chervil or onion juice. Eggs may be dipped in melted suet and packed in salt with the small end downward to preserve them. Curry sauce is made by adding one teaspoonful of curry powder and one of onion juice to drawn butter, Rusty irons should be heated, rub- bed on‘a piece of beeswax, tied in linen, and then with a coarse flannel cloth sprinkled with household salt. They -will give a polish like glass. If you are mixing a pudding or cake with & wooden spoon beat the mixture with the back of the spoon. It is far easier and becomes beautifully light in half the time.’ TO TEMPER CHINA. Many a lover of fine china is heart- broken to discover her choice dinner or tea set lined with hairlike cracks. Hot tea or chocolate poured into dalnty cups cracks them instantly. A Chinese merchant gave this bit of information when a rare tea set was purchased from him: “Before using delicate china place it in a pan of cold water. Let it come gradually to a boil and allow the china to remain water till cold.” This tempers the china and it is capable of with- standing the sudden expansion caused by the heat. There is no need of re- peating the treatment for a long time. THE PANTRY. Always have pantry cupboards fitled h glass doors and keep the rice, es, etc., in glass rs. Then a look (hxouzh the doors show what supplies are missing, TO HOLD THE JUICE. Roll out crust and with seissors cut it about ome-half inch larger than the circumference of your plate. When pie is ready for top crust, cut that just the size of plate. Now fold over the bottom crust on to top crust, sressing dowa firmly and dent with fork. Juice can- not run out. w HEALTH AND BEAUTY. i Every child should have one quart of milk a day until it is 8 years old. ade can usually be given as beverages to any one ill.

COPY BRAID DESIGNS# Often, in planning a new dress, there pretty plece of braided gn on some old gown that takes your fancy and which you would like 1o repeat, if possible, as trimming for the new. -Unless you are unusually expert in freehand it is out of the question to reoroduce the graceful curves and proportions of the orginal in making your transfer upon the new goods. A quick method of tracing, better even than the use of trans- ‘parent paper and pencil and tracing the design as the map at school w traced, is to cover the design wi fine tissue paper and then rub over the entire area below the paper lightly with a heavy crayon. As the crayon strikes the braid helow the pap leaves a darker impression saintly reproduces the design. Rub the crayon in one direction only. This will leave a single line in the reproduction of the design. THE.GARDEN BONNET. A combination of dustcap and straw bat, that forms a convenient covering for the head during cool spring weath- er when it is still too chilly 10 sweep the porch or hang up the clothes with- out taking some precautions against the weather, is made in the following manner; Take an old straw hat, pre- ferably small, with a brim not too broad but sufficient to protect the eves from the sun; cut out the crown and sew in your dustcap, fastening the ruffle on the underside §f the brim and allowing the fullness of the cap to take the place of the straw crow Or the bonnet may be worked up hy uging 2 new piece of goods. Black straw and checked ginghams make a thirfty appearance for laundry day. The boudoir cap of course, much daintier with light siraw whore beauty rather than utilty are to be considered. This bonnet is light and airy and just the thing for the morning work when the season carries some of us out of doors. If you are planning a garden this combiration will be better than ecither the old fashioned sunhonnet cr a heavy broad brimmed straw I DICTATES OF FASHION. Suits have narrow belts.

An attractive cape of pearl gray duvetyn has a deep circular yoke of heavy novelty applique lace dved -to match, Georgette crepe, printed in large white bars, on taupe or blue, tan or white, is to be popular during the com- ing season, so one reads. A charming blouse of fine yellow linen has a row of crocheted buttons down the front and a string belt edged with black. Some of the new one piece tailored dresses have sleeves tight dbove the el- bow and starched linen chemisettes, derectoire style. Black charmeuse gowns have a touch of brilliant color—cobalt blue ,jades, green, bright cerise, Always the color should be in unexpected places. FROCK OF COTTON. Silks and woolen goods may be the Dbest choice of the business woman's frocks, but for the housewife the wisest choice whenever possible is in the realm of cotten. And the reason is not far to seek. The girl who works away frem Lome usually does not have op- portunity tither in time or equipment. to launder her own cotton frocks. Ir iste sends them to the laundry the eX- pense is great and sometimes tke frocks are ruined. But the heusewife can without much additional timekeep her own wash frocks-in fresh condition, giving them that individual attention that is necessary to keep them fromn shrinking and wearing out the wash. ¢ Moreover, the cotton frock is the hest selection because usually the louse- wife wants something that can be washed readily. Even after the hard work of the day is done and shc has changed from a house dress to a dainty afternoon dress there must be trips to the kitchen. And any one knows who has tried to work in the kitchea in a silk frock that even with the grestest precaution spots do come. With the cotton frock it is not of much mo- ment. There have be€n times when we feit that our “best” dresses really ought to be of gilk. But that was when silk was very much cheaper than cotton. | Now the fact that cotton is quite ex- pensive has somehow mage i1s feel that cotton is good enough for any occas- ion and surely the present weaves and designs are quite as good to look at as are the sill mmtcd voile ) tractive a frock for church in the sam- mer as does a fulard. LAUNDRY HINTS. Poor laundry work shortens the life of clothing more than anything else. See that all the bluing is rinsed out| of clothes before pulting them in soapy | | wate Add a tablespoonful of kerosene to a boilerful of clothes and it will Joosen {Ahe stains and dirt—and save work. When coloring an article at home, if {it is anything to be made over, color two gpools of thread or silk at the same time. It will then be sure to matci| in color. When ironing sheets, tablecloths or other large aruclefl ufter ironing one side take hold of the end lying on the | the board, then up on the inner side ol the board, you will then find the other article up ready to iron without the w of turning it over! and the danger of wrinkling it by do- ng so. { I o 2 | BIRTHDAY PARTIES. | ext to Chi mas, the happiest re-| collections of thas youth.
