Nerwich, Monday, Juky 26, 1920, WEMBER OF THE ASSOCIATED PAESS CIRCULATION WEEK ENDING JULY 24th, 1920 10,720 STOPPING THE FIGHTING. Peace has not been deelared nor has an armistice been arranged between Po- land and the soviet government of Rus- sia, but the direct appeal of Poland for 2n armistics has met with a favorable response from Moscow, which if serious- ly followed up should put an end to the present fighting. As the result of the offensive it has been conducting the soviet government has been able to not only force the Poles baek in many places but to get onto Pol- ish territory. This places it in a much more favorable position for insisting up- o1 its terms, whatever they may be, and eorrespondingly decreasing the advantage held by the Poles when everything was in their favor. How much mere blood- shed there will be before the armistice ie agreed upon will depend upon the epeed with which™ such an arrangement is concluded and the correctness of the report to the effact that the soviet army has been ordered to fall back in antici- pation of the expected agreement. Whatever may be the correctness of the claims to the effect that the soviet government is crumbling, it has never- theless demonstrated that it could pro- duce the men and aterial for putting down its opponents Poland of course recognized its serious position. Its ap- peal to the allies brought the assurance that they would not allow it to be over- run and that it would be given the need- ed assistance while efforts on their part to end ing were followed up by advice to the Poles to secure an armis- tice. That there has been a serious sitma- tien threatened as the result of the so- viet advance cannot be questioned. The Aanger of having bolshevism stalk across Poland to run wild in the rest of Europe has not been disregarded. felt that the armi: Even as it is ice will overcome the rtheless be deep in- in the negotiations leading up to the armistice and such others as may follow it especially in connection with the jet claim that was disposed to give Poles even more favorable terms than were proposed in the communication by the allies. TXNJUSTIFIED STRIKES. It is a most unfortunate situation that has been caused by the strike of the eoal miners in I s where it estimated that more than 30,000 of them are idle. These coal mtwers considering that they have a grievance have laid down their tools and quit work regardless of the fact that they have agreed to abide by the understanding reached not so long ago when they were given a substantial in pay. increase They entered into a hich is now disregarded no more than a scrap of g broken other contracts hey expect that anyone will be to enter into new omes wWith e from the serious matter of breaking contract, and the -possible effect it may have upon other regions, it means a serious curtailment of coal pro- duction at 2 time when the country is al- ready experiencing a shortage and when great quantities should be moving to those sections which are shut off from water transportation by cold weather. Not a half of the tonnage that should have been moved into the northwest by this time has been sent. This means on more than the usual must be forwarded there going to be avoideq, but experienced heretofore, serious car shortage to which must be added the decreased production due to the strike the outlook is anything that from now may be the feeling of the that they ought to have more at this time, if for no other rea- money son the fact that they are working under a contract should have been sufficient to have prevented them from going out on a strike and doing their utmost to have the matter adjusted otherwise than by a resort to the strike. Such strikes deserve all the discouragement they can get from fse heads of the organizations involved as well as from all who are connected therewith, for these outlaw coal strikes are bound to be equally as dangerous as the outlaw raflroad strikes if allowed to succeed and lead others to similar breaches of contract. ————— SHIPBUILDING. When figures are produced to show hat this country has lost its lead as a shipbuilding nation it is to be realized that this was an honor recently acquired by stress of circumstances and one whiek no effort was made to retain. That the United Kingdom should again take the lead is only the natural return to normal conditions following the after- war slump in shipbuilding here. When this country went into the war there was a ery for ships ships and more ships, and this resourceful nation set out to provide them. It was nec- essary not only to build ships to meet ogr own requirements but to put onto the seas vessels that would replace those which had been torpedoed by the sub- moarines and to take over the transpor- tation business that was formerly hand- led by foreign bottoms which were eith- er elsewhere engaged, sunk or interned. That we should surpass the United Kingdom under the conditions was not surprising but it was a war industry, and while it did not cease with the sign- ing of the armistice it has been under- going a gradual reduction as contracts were completed. On the other hand the British have been speeding up in the shipbuilding plants as they were able to turn attention from other things. Where | Wwe were a year ago leading the United Kingdom by a millios as8 & third tons under construction, it is now leading us by just under a million and a half tons. Great Britain must make up for its large losses. It needs ships now even as it and we needed them during the war. As it resumes its former position at the top of the list of shipbuilding countries this country nevertheless is a close second and while it may net put out as many ships in the year to come as it has in the year past the impert- ance should not be overlooked of looking well to the upkeep of our merchant ma- rine and to seeing that our own needs in the way of ships are served as far as possible by our own shipbuilding plants. —_— LACK OF DISCIPLINE. Not so long ago the reformatory for women at Bedford, New York, came in for much notoriety as the result of the investigation that was conducted te de- termine whether the allegations that had been made regarding methods carried on thers were actually se. Much emphasis ‘was lald upon certain practices in deal- ing with those who were determined that they were Not going to observe the rules of the institution and who apparently had through their appeals given the im- pression that the inmates were being mistreated instead of being placed un- der disciplinary control because of their conduct within the institution. New attention is now directed to the institution because of a riot among the inmates which made it necessary for out- side authorities t6 take a hand in order to assure proper protection te the coun- tryside thereabouts. Changes were made in connection with the management of the reformatory following the investiga- tion and more are threatened now before of the fact that the board of managers is apparently opposed to praper discipline. ‘Whether it is a refermatory or a pris- on it is to be realized that for the geod of the inmates themselves there must be the right kind of discipline insisted upon and those in charge, if they are going to accomplish anything, have a right to expect to be backed up in the exercise of a reasonable degree of firmness. Unless they are it is going to be a case of hav- ing the inmates run the reformatory and that seems to be about what it has come to at Bedford when it is pessible for them to stage such a riet that those in charge cannot handle the affair. There is no denying the fact that a kind word or well directed advice can ae- complish far more than a kick and a growl in certain cases, but there are times when soft words are impotent and when discipline must be insisted upon. The troubles at Bedford seem to indicate that the mild policy of the Board of man- agers isn't. appreciated by the inmates or the reformatory accomplishing the purposes for which it is intended. RATILROAD PAY AND RESPONSE. By the action of the railroad men in aceepting the award of the railway labor board, even though it is done with a protest, it indieates a determination to to stand by the verdict of a commission picked for the purpose of dealing with the conditions as they are found to exist and to say how a dispute shounld be ad- justed in keeping with the faets. In connection with the acceptance it is indicated that further demands will be made by certain of the railroad men who are not entirely satisfied. In-the mean- time it will be necessary to determine ‘what the people should pay in addition to what they have already been paying in order that the railroad men may secure the extra that has been awarded them. It must of course come from the people but the important thing is to see, if possible, that the public isn't called upon to pay more than should be put upon it by the prices which are attached to goods which it will cost more to transport. It is well enough to say that the public must stand for the $600,000,000 awarded the rail- road men but it is a gross injustice to have the public saddled with a good many more millions just because the op- portunity may exist. Along with the increase in the pay of the railroad men, with its extra tax en the people, interest will center in the re- sponse which the men make to the raise in the way of relieving conditions by im- proving transportation through the dis- {play of greater efficiency. The Pennsyl- vania railroad has already declared that government control provided it with more men that are required to operate it and do so efficiently. The result is that there must be a reduction in the number meaning that those who have been doing little or nothing will have to get through and others must fill their jobs. It will be interesting to note whether other rail- roads follow a like policy and whether employes of other systems will take a lesson from the action on the Pennsylva- nia. EDITORIAL NOTES. Accerding to experience the cost of foodstuffs is still headed in the wrong di- rection. e ‘Whether he caught any fish or not on his fishing trip Bryan got a nomination that he threw back. Jack Johnson has returned and given himself up to United States authorities. They always return. That fleet of tugs which the govern- ment is trying te sell ought to be gotten busy hauling ecoal to New ngland. The man on the corner sava: There isn't very wmuch that egnnot be laid to the weather but that doesn’t regulate it. Paderewski Is said to be the greatest living Pole. Certainly for some little time much has been circling around him. Possibly there would be a better chance of catching Grover Bergdoll if the de- partment of justice wasn't so sure of an early capture. The price of sugar will have to go down and keep going for some time be- fore it reaches the point where the buy- ers will be satisfled. Last year's record of 3374 strikes in this country in view of the persistent de- mand for more production is ecertainly nothing to be proud of. Many an auto driver realizes it ig cheaper to obey the lJaw than to pay fines but the realization quite often doesn't come until he has paid at least one fine. With New York dumping tons of speil- ed produce in the sea daily the greedy fight for high prices is not. only reduc- ing the amount purchased but causing a tremendous waste. For the yachts the weatherman goes te extremes. First he fails to provide enough and then he furnishes teo much. He will be in a position to get the right average just about the time the races are over. The allies wanted us to take part in the occupation of the Rubi valley in Ger- many, and probably under the league of nations they will want us to go to their assistance in all the wars that are threat- ening in Europe. SUGGESTIONS TO THE HOUSEWIFE Ham and mutton fat should be saved for soap grease. In repotting a plant put a layer of cinders in the bottom for drainage. To make meat tender lay it a few minutes in strong vinegar water. A teaspoon of viuegar in water which fowl is boiled makes it tender, Never fail to wash poultry before it is prepared for tke table. Discarded hot water bottles should be cut for sink mats. Borax or ammonia can be used to sof. en hard water for bathing. Lima beans are delicious when baked in the same way as soup beans. Chilled on ice for twenty-four hours, the dinner candles will not drip nor burn away so fast. Left over boiled cabbage can be made into a delicious dish by reheating in a thin white sauce. ‘When haking potatoes if you will wash them well and grease them with butter or lard the sking will become soft and di- in gestible. A plece of absorbent cotton in the palm of your glove will take wup the moisture and prevent the gloves from staining. - The life of shoe leather may be con- siderably prolonged if, in addition to the “ghines” lought down town, or the haome polishing, it is treated to a fortnightly dressing of linseed oil, castor oil or vas- eline. LIFTING THE LOAD. This seems to be the day for strikes. Every one has struck apparently, except mother and the housewife. Let us see that the good mothers and the unselfish homemakers, who do so much to make life comfortable for us all, shall not suf- fer as a consequence of their good be- havier. We have grown so accustomed to yielding to demands that we are in danger of ignoring those who do not issue ultimatums. There does not seem to be any practical way of shortening the hours of our busy home workd\s, but we can see that their tasks are made as easy as possible. One way of accomplishing this is to make sure that they are pro- vided with proper cooking utensils—the utensils that not only are of convenient size, shape and weight, but are also so easily cleaned that the cleaning up pro- cess is robbed of its terrors. CANNING PEACHES. After removing skins cut in half and remove stone. Pack in sterilized jars. Make a sirup, allowing for twelve pint jars of fruit twelve cups of sugar and five cups of water. Boil hard about five minutes, or until heavy. Pour boiling sirup over peaches, put on rubers and tops and partially seal jars. Place in boiler (with rack to prevent breaking), Wwith warm “water up to the necks of jars, allow water to come to a boii, then remove from fire, seal jars, but return them to the water and leave until cool. HEALTH AND BEAUTY. If you use faulty methods in* washing your face your skin will appear spotty, with clogged pores and blackheads, which will eventually produce a collection of pimples. For a soft corn place a piece of young tender mullein leaf between the toes, where the corn is, and renew every 24 hours until cured. This is said to be a sure cure. | Use the brush up and down over the teeth instead of across them. If you brush across them you brush as mucn tartar and other undesired matter be- tween the teeth as you brush out. If you use the brush up and down, the bris- tles get in between and clear out these little places as well as they elear the surface of each tooth. Decay comes from fermentation of food between the teeth. The human body is constantly under- going tissue changes. Water has the power of increasing these changes, which multiply the waste produets, but at the same time they are renewed by its agency, giving rise to increased appetite, which in turn provides fresh nutriment. If you do not accustom yourself to drink water regularly you are liable to have the waste products form faster than they are removed. Any obstruction to the free working of natural laws at once produces disease. Great weakness and languor on rising in the morning are generally due to a large secretion of these waste products and the remedy is to drink a tumblerful of water—either hot or cold—just before retiring. This materially assists in the process during the night and leaves the tissues fresh and strong, ready for the active work of the next day. VENTILATION, Through persistent education the why and wherefore of this great health neces- sity has been explained ; still to the many air is air, and that is all there is to it. Ventilation does not simply mean “open wide the windows,” but is should be done scientifically, especially in a sick room. To properly ventilate, the air must be kept in motion. The entrance opening for fresh air should be larger than the one for exit. If these opening are directly opposite, the motion will take place without doing the room any good. If there are two windows in the room, one should be opened from the top and the other from the bottom. For the gen- eral daytime room the temperature should be 68 degrees and at night 65. A bathroom “should be kept at 70. For the sick room of pneumonia patients and sey- eral other diseases, of course, the tem- perature should be kept as low as pos- sible without having the patient in a draught. FULL FLAVOE OF TEA. People who are really particular about their tea, who Wwish to get all the flavor and all the delicacy of the tea out of it, will never use a metal teapot, no matter how handsome may be the silver. The Chinese who certainly should know about it, always say that they can deteet by the taste whether tea .has been made in either metal or china. Consequently in many households We see china teapots on the table, while the silver remains on the sideboard. These china teapots, how- ever, have their drawbacks and one is the ease with which the spouts become nicked or broken by careless handling. It seems as if even the Chinaman must approve of enamel ware as a substanece for a teapot. Its surface is like fine poreelain and no metal taste could pos- sibly get through it. Try -this happy compromise. Be sure the water is boil- ing. Don’t let it stand more than three minutes. DICTATES OF FASHION. Batik materials are much used negligees. Gold cloth evening gowns have girdles of jet. Very short sleeves are seen on evening gowns. Belts are broad and low, with oriental effect. £ The season promises to be one of bright celors. NMyw of the new suit jackets are full to tue hips. The new fall silhouette favers the straight line. Tunics are still shown. The pleated model, however, is losing its popularity somewhat. Almost every dress shows a .different sash treatment. The sashes and girdles are varied in color and style. The irregular skirt hem is becoming exceedingly popular With American and French designers. - Paris reports beige silk stockings and black shoes are the ri@lt footgear, and for WOMAN, IN LIFE AND IN THE KITCHEN a i:u in Chinese embroidery with an vory mount may be carried in the hand. Striped cire ribbon is a novelty much tavored by the French modistes. Lace hats in cloche or capeline shapes Wwith crosse or paradise plumes have suc- ceeded the elaborate turbans as dress hats in Paris, Waterfalls and cascades of tulle plisse down back and sides of dance froeks are the latest cachet of the French dress- makers. Sunshades are appearing in all sorts of novel forms this summer. Some are covered with hright cretorne, handle and all. A black taffeta parasol is edged with black silk fringe, with two hu crimson roses for trimming, and a still more elaberate one is hand embroidered in beads in a floral design. 'MOTOR BONNETS. | With the arrival of real summer weather eomes the season of holiday trips and long auto rides. There is noth- ing so comfortable in the way of head- gear, for wear on these occasiens, as the small hat. Today's models are unlike the auto hats of former years, made, say, of pongee and fashioned on the lines of the old Quaker and other queer bonnet shapes, with long veils which flutter and flap in the wind. The correct motar bonnet of today is likely to be made of silk or knitted wool or ather suitable ma- terial and often it is combined with straw. These hats eome in a wide range of colors, ameng the more delicate tints being white, rose or jade. Frequently these chic head coverings are worn with gowns of voile and colored cottons, made on simple lines. Over these frocks, of course, coats or wraps, loose and 3ll covering, are worn. SUMMER SUITS. Some of the summer suits have jackets of some one color, usually light, and skirts of finely plaited taffeta, satin, chif- fon or similar material, and must be classified rather as afternoon costumes than as suits. The prediction of much faver for the eombination of jackets and basque bodices of one material with full plaited or gathered skirts of another is amply {fulfilled. VEGETABLE HINTS. Beets with dirty roots show that they have' not been freshened by soaking. Se- lect those with green, fresh leaves. Long, narrow cucumbers are legs indi- gestible than short, lhtck ones with large seeds. ~ Creamed vegetables are improved by standing over hot water for a quarter of an hour before serving. Weight rather than size should govern the selection of cabbage. A small, firm head is the best. It is not wise to choose the largest sweet potatoes ner the largest turnips. Medium sized potatoes and small turnips have a finer flavor and will cook more satisfactorily. If the juice of a lemon is added- to a pan of cold water and the wilted vege- tables allowed to stand in the water for half an hour they will be found as fresh as when gathered. To skin a beetroot easily, without bleeding it or causing it to loose color put it in cold water as soon as it is cook- ed. Then draw the hand gently down each one and the gkin will drop off with- out trouble. Sweet potatoes can be French fried like white ones and should be sprinkled with salt and powdered sugar. DECORATIVE MIRROR. You cannoteoverestimate the possibili- ties of mirors in house decorations. They reflect back unexpected bits of color, and they actually make a dark interior light- er. . Mirrors are more fascinating than pie- tures, and they are usually more decora- tive. Place a mirror over a table, and on the table set a vase holding a spray of blossoms, so that the vase and spray are reflected in the mirror. If sufficient mirrors are used they make the smallest room seem larger. In fact, if they are so arranged that the whole room is reflected, the room may even seem large. When mirrors refleet in opposite mirrors the light is richly given back again, and windows, &s me- diums of light, are multiplied in the room. One simple way of placing a large mirror is between twe windows and reaching to the floor. CONSERVING CURRANTS, To preserve currants uncooked meas- ure and wash them and allow one and one-quarter pounds of sugar for each pound of currants. Crush the fruit and the sugar, being careful that the skin of every currant is broken, Have ready jars, sterilized in boiling water, empty the jars and fill to overflowing with the currants and sugar. Seal air-tight as for any preserved iruit. These are particu- larly good for pies, as they have the ex- act flavor of the fresh fruit. EEP CIDER SWEET. ‘When barreling eider put inte each barrel or keg eight large tablespoons of white mustard seed. This will retard the cider’s becoming hard or sour. CONCERNING WOMEN. Miss Sarah Flanagan, appointed eity clerk of Kingston, Ont., in 19800 is be- lieved to have been the first woman in Canada to fill that public office. Miss Mabel Stinson of Winchester, Mass. is the first woman town clerk in New England. To make her eligible to the position it was necessary for the Massachusetts legislature to pass & spe- cial law. Dr. Retta Gifford Kilborn of Toron- to, widow of a well known missionary worker who died recently while home on furlough from China, has volunteered to fill the place of her hushand in the mis- sion_field. ‘When a Russian girl departs from her home for the altar her parents leave the door of their house open as a sign that their daughter may return to the paren- tal roof if ever the need should arise. PREVENTS CLOGGING. After emptying the greasy dish water into the sink it is well to put a piece of washing soda over the sink drain and pour sealding water over it. This will prevent the pipes from clogging. LEMON SEEDS. Lemon seeds, if planted and treated as house plants, will make pretty little |shrubs. The leaves can then be used for flavoring, Tie a few in a clotk and drop in apple sauce when boiling and nearly done. It is a low cost essence. RECIPES. Midsummer Punch—Make a sirup by boiling two cups of sugar and twe cups of water ten minutes after boiling point is reached). Add one eup of lemon juice, one-half eup of orange juice and one cup eof red raspberry sirup. Strain and chill. When ready to serve add two cans of sliced pineapple eut in small pieces, the sirup in the cans and one pint bottle of white grape juice. Pour over a block of ice placed in a punch bowl and add one pint of earbonated wa- ter. Serve in sparkling ‘water glass. Spiced Nut Wafers.—Cream one-half cup of butter, add one egg beaten until thitk and lemon tinted and ene-third cup of finely chopped pecan nut meats, and gradually eme-half cup ef sugar while stirring constantly. Add two tablespeens of water, the grated rind of haiul a lem- on and gradually two cups .of fous sift- ed with one-half tablespoon o! einna- mon, three-fourth teaspoon ecan of eloves and nutmeg. Beat mixture uniil thor- oughly blended. Turn on a floured oard, rell to onmé-fourth inch thickness, shape’ with a small eutter, mensuring one and one-half inches in djameter, first and one-half until delicately browned. with the cocoanut jumbles. FACTS REGARDING THE CARE OF THE BABY By U. 8. Public Health Service. Sleep, Play, and Rest. The child's body develops faster dur- ing the first year of his life than at any other period. For that reason a baby needs a large allowance of sleep, with the best sleeping accommodations, so that the hours of sleep may be of the greatest value to him. Baby should sleep alone. Babies may be smothered to death while in bed with an older person, some part of whose body may be thrown over baby's fase while asleep. The young baby should sleep eighteen or twenty hours ou: of the twenty-four. He should have sixteen hours sleep “daily from a mon<1 to the age of one year. From the first {o the second year, he should sleen twelve hours. A baby should have the longest period of unbroken sleep at night and should not be permitted to turi night into day. Daytime: The daytime naps saould be continued through thé sixth year. The baby should never take a nap in all his clothes. The shoes of older children es- pecially should be removed. In hot wea- ther remove all but the shirt and dia- per from the baby. The sleeping room should be darkened and well ventilated. The baby should be fed and made comfortable in every way put in his crib and let alone to go to slepe. He should never be rocked to sleep ner jolted nor jounced. Out-of-Doors: Out-of-door sleeping in summer, both by day and by night is good for the baby after he is a /bmonth old. He must be pmtected’%flbs. mosquitoes, shielded from the ind and sun, and covered if there is a sudden drop in temperature. The sleeping porch must be protected properly by canvas curtains and in cold weather a hot wa- ter bottle: should be placed in baby's bed. The baby must have an abundant sup-{ ply of fresh air day and night. He should be kept out of doors as much as possi- ble, avoiding the hot sun and days when the thermometer drops below 22 degrees F| beeause of the danger of the face be- ing frostbitten. In the summer time, a newborn baby may be taken out ef doors the first week. Begin with a daily out- ing of fifteen minutes about noon and gradually lengthen the time in tke fore- noon and afternoon until the baby is out from ten o'clock until two o'clock. He must be clothed properly according to the weather and his eyes protected from the sun. At all ages, the baby carriage must be one in which the child can lie comfortably at full length and stretch his arms and legs, When sitting up, his little spine and feet must be support- ed properly . . Playing: A young baby needs rest and quiet. However strong he mav be, too| much playing is bad, as it is likely to re- sult in a restless night. Rocking the baby, jumping him up and down on the knees, tossing him, in con- stant motion is very bad fer him. These things disturb baby's nerves and make him more and more dependent upon| these -attentions. When the young baby is awake, he should be taken up fre- quently and held quietiy in the arms in various positions, so that no one set of muscles may beeome tired. An older; child should be taught to sit on the floor or in his pen or crib and amuse himself during a part of his waking hours, Getting More and More Humorous, Billy and David were faverite young- sters of the neighborhood. David had been away for a year and in his absence Ralph had been getting the attention. This- caused some jealousy between the two and they argued a great deal about this and other things including which had seen or done the most wonderful things.| David was telling about the lions, bears and other wild animals he had seen when Billy interrupted: “Yes, but I saw a blind tiger.” For Giving.

One morning she said, “Mother, will you forgive me?” “Forgive you for what, dear?” Betty was worried but only for a mo- ment. “Forgive me a nickel,” she suggested, brightly. Stories That Recall Others PROGRESS OF HOSTILITIES IN CHINA AND MANCHURIA Tientsin, China, July 24 (By the A. P.). —Unconfirmed reports from Feng-Tai sttae that fighting on the Peking-Hankow line has ceased and that Tuan Chi-Jui, the army commander, has resigned. The | reports tstate Tuan petitioned the presi- dent to relieve him of command of the | frontier defense forces converted by him into a “preservation of the national army” on the ground that the army has failed to earry on a successful campaign, and ask- ed that the army be dissolved.

EFFORTS TO INVOLVE GERMANY IN THE RUSSO-POLISH WAR Berlin, July 24—Charges that deter- mine defforts are.being made to provoke Germany into active participation in the Russo-Polish war on the side of Poland are published by Die Freiheit. In return for her support, the newspaper says, Ger-‘ many will regain the province of Posen. The organ of the independent socialists | says' that Russian reactionaries are striv- ing actively to bring about an understand- ing in this direction between the allies and Germany in the hope o fereating a “holy alliance” whieh would take up the common fight against the Russian soviets. Fheiheit says: “The rman workers of all classes will constitute themselves a unit in opposing realization of such a criminal plan.” The newspaper warns the government against aiding any effort which would involve Germany in a new military adventure. WALEER D. HINES BUSY AS ARBITER IN EUROPE Vienna, July 25—Walker D. Hines, who was recently appointed to arbitrate the various dilferences between European Powers concerning navigation on the cen- tral European waterways, returned here today from a trip on the lower Danube. Shortly after his arrival Mr. Hines left for a tour of the River Elbe.
