It is not regarded as a wheat substitute, but in bread mak ing is put on a parity with wheat. Rye is needed for export to the al lies and is In demand among Amer ican bakers who supply bread to cer tain groups of foreigners. It can be bought from the grocer "straight," but is not in the fifty-fifty combina tion as a substitute for heat In bread making rye is usually combined witli" wheal flour. House keepers who make their own rye bread should use at least so per cent corn flour or other cereal on the list of wheat substitutes, to produce a Victory loaf. W. S. C. RED CROSS i HIVE OF INDUSTRY Surgical Dressings Course Completed and Supervisors Named—Over Poor Thousand Dressings Completed A thriving, enthusiastic organiza tion is the State College auxiliary of the Pullman Red Cross society. At the college Red Cross headquarters the women of the Institution and the wives and daughters of faculty mem bers gather each day to do their bit toward winning the war, and with nimble fingers and painstaking care make hundreds upon hundreds of hospital necessities for the comfort and convenience of the wounded Sammies who receive first aid on the battle, field and treatment at the numerous hospitals. Last week marked the completion of the course in surgical dressings, which was conducted by Mrs. E. XV. Thorpe, chairman ,of \thfl Pullman branch, and the efficiency of the col lego women in this important branch of the Red Cross work was manifest ed by the excellent grades received by the women who were ..enrolled. Upon the removal from Pullman of Mrs. Kert/., the chairmanship of the surgical dressings department of the college headquarters went to Mrs. Potter, who, together with her as sistant, Mrs. lleald. deserves much credit for the excellent resiftts at tained. Dean Rhoda M, White also gave much time and attention to the cause and is to.be commended for her efforts. At the close of the course of in struction the ladies showed their ap preciation of the services and kind ness of Mrs. E. XV. Thorpe, the certi fied surgical dressings instructor, by presenting her with a handsome fern. The college auxiliary, since' last October, has completed 1353 gauze dressings, and it is '.-ted (hat the activities of the > newly qualified superintendents of this department or the work will result in at least the doubling of the surgical dress ings output of the auxiliary. Upon the completion of the course the "graduates" were assigned to superintend the surgical dressings work on each day of the week, the assignments being as follows: Monday -Mrs. Akers, Mrs. Shedd, Cella Bu.gess, Gladys Durham. Tuesday—Mrs. Hobson, Mrs. Mil ler, lone Gay. Olive Bruning, Sara Munn. Wednesday—Mrs. Coulter, Ella Durham, Edith Keywood, Gertrude Stephen, Evelyn Bradbury, Mary- Shook. Thursday—Miss Swezey, Blodwina Evans, Marion Nelson, Mrs. Heald. Friday-—Mrs. Hill, Mrs. Pahrea burg, Valley Bigby, Mrs. lsia Dallas. Saturday—Mrs. Hull, Verna Hop kins, Beryl Wads worth. Mrs. E. W. Thorpe, chairmen of the Pullman branch, desires through the columns of this paper to express her deep thanks to the ladies of the college for the interest displayed in the Red Cross work, as evidenced by tho large numbers who report for work each day and the large class which respond to the call for candi dates for tho surgical dressings course. In anticipation of the heavy casualties which will accompany the expected spring drive on the west ern front, the national Red Cross headquarters have issued an appeal for many more surgical dressings and every effort will be made, both at the college and downtown head quarters of the Pullman branch, to Interest as many ladles as possible in this branch of the work. Sixty-one women reported at the college headquarters for work on one or more days of last week, an excel lent record, but one which it is hoped can be eclipsed with each succeeding week. The college women are asked to show as much patriotism as the 700 college men whose honor stars grace the new State College service flag and they are responding graci ously.
