This was the re- sult of a personal canvass by men and women oi the town. ` The Assyrlans' Appeal to President Wilson A commission of Assyrisns headed by Paul Shlrnmon. personal represen- tative of Mar Shimun in this country, presented the following appeal to President Wilson, in behalf. of their sull'erlng countrymen. "The under- signed American naturulized citizens have come to ‘Washington not to trou- ble to ses you but to lay their petition at your feet and go, believing that since this coungy is fighting for the protection of s lull nationalities, the remnants ol' our nation,-the Assyrian Christians on the Persian Turkish frontier' may be saved from utter ex- termination. ’I‘iie enclosed telegram announcing the death of our Patriarch and Head ` of the Nation has cast a gloom over all the Assyrians in this country, many of whom are now lighting in France and many in training camps who have members of their families in Persia involved in this situation. The withdrawal of the Russians, the German propaganda, the indifference of the Persians may mean our entire extermination, and wipe us off the face of the earth. On the other hand, the influence oi the American Missionaries and others and the great relief work they are do- ing and the good name ‘of Americans in Persia are great assets-ln-ourfav- or in s dark day like this. We appeal for.your personal inter- vention in this dark hour."

Y. Times. 'rug muitpsn AT snmosnsupo . y ` 0 THEY'VE STOPPED WRAPPING BREAD IN CANADA A correspondent at Montreal, writ- ing to “The Paper Mill," quotes the Cost of Living Commissioner as say- ng: - “Since I issued my last statement' concerning Canadian bread conditions the Canada Food Board has put into force a regulation which prohibits the wrapping of bread. This regulation, whether or not sought by the bakers was welcomed by them, and they seem quite content therewith, but in my judgment (admittedly fallible) it conduces to waste and contributes to make higher yet the cost of living. I, therefore, respectfully suggest that it should be rescinded. If the object of its being made was the reduction of the cost of bread to the consumer (I was not consulted, so l do not know), that object has already sig- nally failed. Some bakers have rais- ed theirklrices. I know of none who has reduced them. If the objection was the prevention of waste. that ob- Jection has worse than failed, for tire evil of waste has been accentuateldn The wrapped loaf keeps fresh and sweet at least for eight hours longer' than the unwrapped loaf. All stale bread does not go to waste, but ri very' much larger percentage of stale bread than fresh does go to waste. As the' unwrapped bread goes stale, much' new fresh bread is bought, rcpiacing it. The baker does not object, 'but apart from the mattei of conservation, which is not my business, all"thls bosts the consumer more money, "Meanwhile, notwlthstandingell our, hard earned provincial sanitary laws the one article necessary and univergf, ally used at our tables is delivered there under conditions which we ha /e been taught' to regard with disquiet- ude, if not with disgust I submit that sanitary precautions are worth paying lor. The sanitary requirements which surround the supply of meat and milk'add very materially to their cost, but these laws remain uninipsir- ed. Why favor one or more species of bacteria? Let us have them all. Why clean meat or milk, but dirty bread? Why not dirty water as well? Thus could be save money and con- serve supplies. Water systems receive anti-typhoid treatment at great ex- pense, whils a- balrer's driver, who happens to be a 'typhoid csrriar’, may infect a thousand loaves- of lrread a day. I refrain 'from imsgining‘varlous other possibilities (they come all too easily to one's» mind), but in view of the fact that the house fly will soon be abroad in tbslsnd, I suggest that at lssst those who wish to purchase wrapped bread should be at liberty to do so, whether or not the wrapping of all breads ieragain- made compulsory. I think however, that wrapping should be made compulsory. I think so, as l may lawfully and pi'operly~t/hink. that I think in this-'open fashion, because wrappedcbrsad; costs less than un- wrappsdrbresd.; With such matters I em directly concerned." r ,,_._ ,, . _ _ .. _ . / is 'Ill ~ ) -,/` il /' » Y ' -; I, V Q _ . .5 '_ _=' ' -- \__ , "foo other kind of a man."_ i Y ` or - ._ w " - ' -- A.. - -_-~ _._ -fe _-.---_ f - --- . .. ,A-__,_»-l _ll , i. ¢-.___ ' DEFINDVB THE WORKERS i ‘ Victor F.

Yrgilirn Tianlierolhkn 0 course' e THE H,OU8EWlFE'§' _PATRIOTISNL The patriotism of Madame House- wife is measured these days by the kind of meals she prepares for the fa- mily. The youngest child will take what is put before him, provided the food is well cooked. There is noth- ing in the menu that lends itself to more variety or constant use than do vegetables. Twice a day vegetables can be used in one form or another, if they are judiciously handled by the housewife. Vegetables have different character- istics, For instance green vegeta- bles are valuable mainly because they contain substances which purify the `bi'ood"and 'assist ' digestion. Roots and tubers are heat and energy~glving foods. All vegetables supply bulk and all contain a considerable amount of water in which are the salts so va- luable to health. Wie are still with- in tlieseason when we need the pro- perties of the roots and tubers. It will be some time before the fresh ve- getables are on the market. Let us clean up the one kind before we be- gin to use the other. The first and most immediate need is to release wheel. for overseas. Every potato, carrot and onion that we eat is helping towards that end. Don't neglect to be in the vegetable- eating ranks. ` One liarried housewife moaned the other day: “I never want to see an onion again as long as 1 live. We are sick of them." “How many ways have you tried to cook them?" she was asked. “Oh I always fry them." No wonder she was sick of them. Every vegetable can be cooked in a variety of ways and it is poor policy on the part of the housewife to tire her family with re- petition. iShe may use the same ve- getable nearly every day and by a frequent change in the manner of cooking or serving she may achieve constant variety. How many families have boiled potatoes day in and day out? It is safe to guess that only about five per cent of the women in Canada cook po- tatoes habituslly in more than two ways. One of'the simplest and easiest of dishes to prepare is riced potatoes. If the housewife isfboli- in them, an wa she mi ht as well they will be flaky and delicious. Here are some other recipes that might be used to-advantage. There is nothing new or elaborate about them but so few people think of try- ing them out. _____&__i RELIANCE ' Not to the swift the race; Not to the strong the fight; Not to the righteous perfect grace; i '-Not to the wisethe light.

Pearls in Cocoenute The cocoanuts of the Malay Penin- sula sometimes producs pearls that are highly prized' by the natives. The stones are not unlike the pearls' of the molluscs, and are similar in com- position to the oyster pearls, having calcium carbonate and a little organic matter. The mollusc pearl is said to come into existence -by the efforts of the oyster pearl to dispose of irritat- ing particles that have entered the shell; but the cocoanut could have no cause for producing these concre- tlons, which, while they have great similarity to the pearl, are not pearls. These concretions from just beneath the stem, and spurs- white pearl brings a high price, as it is supposed by the natives to possess some kind of' a charm. Cases have been known where the cocoanut pearl has been sold as a mollusc product, but such instances are rare.-Family Herald. wi-iv. coss is iN`nsMANo Irving Cobb is baclrln New York from his '0ssinirig`-near Sing Sing pf --farm for the winter speaking sms in New York.

He denounces R.epington’s assertions as ‘fmlschievous libels," and says he writes to express "the` indignation it has caused among my fellow-workers." The story he tells' of the service and sacrifice of the British workmen is one worthy of a place in the annals of war achieve- ment. He says: i I "The statement that the men here are deliberately limiting- the output of munitions is really wicked. We are not without our labor disputes, but during the war there has been ii ready disposition on both sides to settle these quickly for the sake of those in the trenches. At my factory' most of the departments -have -work-i ed twelve hours daily for over two years with real enthusiasm, and never] a grumble at Sunday work, and' when we take it into consideration that many of these men have been used fol s more or---less time-free and easy' life in small businesses of their own,i also that many are over' fifty years of age, their behaviour is most creditable." | Observing that he is forbidden to give information as to the numbers of men employed, Mr. James adds: “But you can take it from nie that; the percentage of really fli, able- bodisd fighting men not in the army is' very small." And he tells something of the work being done by crippled men and patriotic women. Alluding to Repington's caustic references to “the comparatively small number of women whom you ses in mourning," this British workmen rightly waxes warm. “One cannot," he says, “go down any street in any town without! seeing legless and armless men sndi women in mourning. Many women here do not care to advertise their losses and be perpetually reminded of them- by sympathlzers, therefore their mourning is not consplcious.” Mr. James scores when.he reminds Col. Repington that "one must not make false conclusions from observa- tions taken in a dinner-hour crowd' in the west ond, of London, or listen to idle theories and rumors emanat- ing from clubrooms. Visit the grimy inland cities and realize ‘how whole- heartedly we are out for victory and how earnest everyone is to obtain that end, then one will see how mis"- leading and thoughtless Col. Reping- ton's article is." The British workmen has made‘ out a telling case. .In so far as he expresses the spirit and purpose of his comrades, he makes a sorry spec- ligible in comparison with the laborer he presumes to lecture. “‘Home, Sweet Home" "il-lome, Sweet Home" is sung in the four corners of the world. wher- ever English is spoken.
