AMERICAN GIRLS
i RENDERED AID
TOMBOYS
N'EW YORK, Dec. 19. How Ameri
can women In France helped to lighten
' the cares of American soldiers, feeding
them with sweets, cooking for them,
i dancing with them, meanwhile wash
' ing dishes and scrubbing floors, was
I told today by Mrs. Vincent Astor. Af-
ter eighteen months service in cnn-
I teen and welfare work, while her hus
band was serving with the overseas
navaiy forces, Mrs. Astor has just re
turned from Bordeaux where she was
jn charge of a division of the Y. M. C.
A. women. One of her fellow workers
Vaa Mrs. Henry Russell, formerly
Ethel Borden Harriman, who was mar
ried in France.
'. "The soldiers over there showed the
i most complete gratitude and courtesy
to every American woman that it
' made it intensely pleasant to be doing
. things for them," said Mrs. Astor.
f "Every few nights we gave a dance-'
: Wc would send out a call for Amerl-1
i ' can women and all those who volun
tetered were brought in by army ma- J
' chines. There were usually about 20
; , and they would have to divide their
; time between several hundred men.
' Once wc had eight women and 2.000
, sailors. '
; ..fp0 CVPn things up I borrowed aj
: 1 bosun's' whistle and gave a signal
' ccry two minutes tq change partners.!
The re3iilt was that every couple!
: would have possibly twenty men fol-1
; ! lowing alter them waiting for the nexti
; dance. No distinction was' made be-!
? twecn officers and men at such
.' - dances "
WINTER SHORTCAKE
Did ou ever make an orange short
cake? That is a good desert for win
ter days and is easily made as fol
lows: - First make a good shortcake dough,
as for a springtime strawberry short -
tcake. An excellent rule for this reads
as follows: Sift together one and one
( half cupfuls of flour, one and one-half
' heaping teaspoonfuls of baking powder
and one-half teaspoonful of salt. Into
; this nib one-half cupful of shortening
and thpn mix to a soft dougli with
; milk. BaUe in two pans or, if pre
:! ferred. divide the dough into two
' equal parts, roll one out until it fits
the pan, put it in carefully and brush
; f it over well with melted butter. Then
roll out the other half of the dough
and place upon the first part,
i When it is all done the two sections
. may bo split apart easily. Peel the
, i oranges, being careful to remove all ol
; the white skin, and slice as thin as
possible. In a saucepan put one cup
' ful of sugar and one-half cupful of
I- i water or orange juice. Let this boil
. a little, but not long- enough to candy.
"; ' Pour the sirup over one well beaten
I egg; beat as though it wore for sake
I frosting. Fill and cover the short
cake with the sliced oranges and then
, pour this mixture over the orange.
I No other sauce is necessary. If the
o)d fashioned shortcake is not wanted
for this dish a simple layer cake may
be made and filled and frosted in the
same waj .
I 8 LACE LORE
Herd's an excellent way to dry clean
white laces: Wash in flour, rubbing in
the flour as you would with soap. Let
the lace lie for some lime and then
5fj Ehake it out. If it is not quite clean
I repeat the process, which will inako
it like new.
Tho best way to wasli lace is to
squeeze it first in hot water, then in
cold. To stiffen dip in milk. It should
- bo pressed on a well padded board on
' the wrong side with a hot iron

PLENTY OF MILK
I
STwo general maxims should be
learned by the people of the United
: j Statos. "Every adul.t should have at
' "least a third of a quart of milk each
! ; day" and "no family of five should
1' j buy any meat until it has bought three
l quarts of milk."
One reason for urging the use of
I much milk, is that it is our best source
'of certain mineral salts, notably lime,
which the body needs. It is so easy

j Of striking interest to everyone who
has contributed to the Red Cross will
I be the statement contained in the fi
I nancial report of the Red Cross for
the first half of 1918, to the ejTepL!
that it costs-but two cents of every
dollar contributed to Urg cause to op
erate the administrative bureaus in
tho United States. More interesting
i still is the fact that for every dollar
contributed by the American people
for war relief work, mora than one
dollar and one cent is expended for
that purpose, the extra cent being pro - J
J vided by interest on the funds. I
The operating expenses of national
j headquarters and the fourteen divis-
ions in tho United States are all paid
I out of a fund arising from membership
I dues, not a dollar of (he funds con
tributed for relief work being used for
overhead expense. The total operat
ing expenses for the whole country
were but $2,1C1,SC5 for the fiscal year.
At the time the report was prepared,
there were about 8.500 persons em
'ployed in the work of the Red 'Cross
j in tho United States and more than
3,500 workers overseas. As is well
known, the heads of the departments
of the Red Cross organization are all
volunteer workers, many men and wo
men of great ability having given up
lucrative businesses to join in the
work. Of the 6,234 paid workers, more
than 5,000 receive $1,500 a year or less,
the majority receiving less than $1,000.
Of course these figures cover only
the workers in the national and divis
ional headquarters. They are not to
be confused with the eight million wo
men workers who volunteer their ser
vices in the workrooms of the four
thousand chapters of the Red Cross all
' over the country. These workers
turned out over forty-four million dol
lars' worth of finished articles last
year. Thus it will be seen that the
American Red Cross conducts one of
the largest merchandising businesses
in the world. During tho yenr ended
June 30, Ihc Red Cross appropriated
$107,716,348 to carry on its work
abroad and at home. Of this over
$59,000,000 went for relief in foreign
countries, nearly $8,000,000 for work
in the United States, about $5,000,000
for relief work in various countries on
work specified by contributors, $26,
000,000 set aside for working capital
and the balance for other activities.
In less than eleven months the
American people gave more than $300,
000,000 to Red Cross by far the great
est sum ever contributed by any na
tion for humanitarian work.
The report concludes with a state
ment of the precautions taken to safe
guard Red Cross funds, saying: "There
is a provision in our charter which re
quires that we shall make each year
to the secretary of war a full report
of receipts and expenditures, which
report shall bo duly audited by the
war department and a copy of said re
port shall be transmitted tb congress
by the war department. Under this
provision, auditors under the direction
of tho inspector general of the war
department arc constantly engaged in
checking our receipts and expendi
tures. Such a check, mado by public
authorities, adds materially to the
safeguards which we ourselves place
around our funds."

RATES TO HOMES
BOISE, Idaho, Dec. IS Joseph Burns
of Pocatollo, Idaho, non-partison
league campaigner, who last fall re
peatedly attacked the power compan
ies of Idaho for not furnishing cheap
power for Idaho homes, appeared to
day before the Idaho public utilities
commission after having been sub
poenaed to testify in the hearing be
ing held on the question of the feas
ibility of developing electric heating
from water power sites.
Burns had prepared a written state
ment for the commission in which he
states that he has had no technical
training in the subject of hydro-electric
power, and that his charges have
been made as the result of observa
tion and experience. His statement
also declares that ho believes Idaho
to have a possible water power de
velopment of more than 5,000,000
horsepower. He also reiterated his
belief that under state ownership this
power can be dellverd at 1 3-4 cents
per kilowatt, whereas the people of
the state pay from $S to $10 per ton
for coal.
Burns denied that he has ever ad
vocated open air heating by electricity
as feasible. He says the electricity
should be used to heat water for hot
water heating plants.

ing today of the call paid President
Wilson by Marshal Foch yesterday.

DISEASE-FREE
ALFALFA STRAIN
The "yellowing" of alfalfa, a dis
easo which has become common in
many localities where alfalfa is grown
and which is proving a serious menace
to this valuable crop, is being studied
by specialists of the United States
Department of Agriculture with a view
of developing strains that are resist
ant to the disease. Seed of alfalfa
hybrids which have shown resistant
qualities has been sown in the west
with a view of increasing the stocks
to the point where field tests can be
made.
