A BELGIAN VILLAGE IN THE HEART OF ENGLAND Wounded Refugees Make Shells in Town Named Elizabeth After Their Queen New1 townships hae sprung up In all parts of England, ow Ing to the de mand for housing for munition workers. Mr. Raymond Unwln, who planned the first garden city at ltchworth, has been appointed by the Mlnlstrv of Mu nitions to superintend the building of these 'model townships." The War Pic torial says. "A. Kllzabethvllle, named after the Queen of the Belgians, some 4000 Bel glar soldiers are making sheila for the Brl'.lsh army. Of these 90 per cent have seen serlce In the field, and more than three-quarters have been wounded. Like tht other munition townships, Elizabeths llle Is a product of the war. "Elizabeths Hie is situated in one of the beautiful valleys of northern Eng land. Its population Is entirely Belgian, and It reproduces as faithfully as possi ble every feature of Belgian town life. The cottages and all the furniture have been provided by the Ministry of Muni tions, and each cottage has a garden ut- tached."

Girls Would Earn Money To the Hditor o H'omatr Page: Dear Madam We are twelie girls nf twelve anil thirteen eara of aire and would like sou to suggest some way for us to make money for a babies' milk fund Thank ing ou and huplnir sou will answer us soon, as we will watch for our answer, TWELVE OIRLS. I tried to be very prompt, girls, and not keep you waiting One-way to raise money would be to have a little fair, at which things for dolls might be sold. Most of you can sew, I suppose, and some can knit. lively little sweaters for dolls can be made from bits of left over yarn and bo can dresses from scraps of cloth. Advertise jour fair In the neighborhood by hanging posters around on the telegraph poles and trees, and, of course, ten tne nine children about It. You can make the posters out of pictures of babies cut from magazine covers and pasted on wnue paper that can tell about what you have to sell and how much the babies need milk. Some of your customers win De mothers who want to buy doll things for their little gins, out i w-ouia cater a jot to the children themselves. Make everything as cheap as you can. Use tables covered with old sheets for your booths and then have some flags and pictures of babies. Another way to make money Is to mind babies for mothers while they go shopping. Man Won't Knit To the Editor ol Woman's Page: Dear Madam Here la a man who la will ing to stand up and say that he does not rare to knit. He Is willing to work his ringers to the bono to buy wool for the women to knit and Is willing to try to make extra money to give to the War Cheat. It seems to me there are enough women In tha country to do the knitting without having a gre'.t. big man sit down and peacefully work those needles. I think It is true that women who work give more of their lelaure hours to war work than men do. TJut I would not call thla exactly a sacrifice, as women really like to knit Women always like tn have a little bit of embroidery to olck up. and now they pick up knitting Instead. 1 non't mean to de preciate their work In any way, but I Just mean to say that there Is not in every ease a great deal of sacrifice connected with making socks for soldiers. A great many nf the men who don't go to war, not be cause they are over draft age, but because they havo families to support, would Ilk ta go to war. Ihif smfhojslj<tlnc W.n-i Youth Is Lovely in Organdie A Daily Fashion Talk by Florence Rose BECAUSE this little dress suggested the young girl graduate or her younger sister eager for her first real "dressed-up" frock, I selected this model for you today. It Is really, truly girlish In cxery feature and It Is not always an easy matter to discover a young girl's frock that has not some grown-up factor in the making. Xow. however, that young girls have their ow-n designers men and women who know youth In Its every phase we are finding more of these girlish frocks than of yore You will be surprised, I am sure, to hear that this dress Is mide of organdie It looks It and It Is. Besides, even If It did not bear the hallmarks of or gandie, one would only naturally sup pose that It was organdie the minute It was shown as a summer frock; for It would t.eem that nine out of every ten summer frockB shown this year are of organdie. It seems to me this might well be described as a "simple affair" enhanced only with fagoting, and In those few words volumes havo been said. The skirt, which Is straight and full, has a deep hem and a simulated plait below the hip line marked by the fagot ing The dropped shoulder and the deep cuff, as well as the front of the bodice, are also trimmed with the fagoting. The deep rolling collar opens at the back and Is trimmed with small white buttons, Sashes, by the way, as I have told you befoie, play a very Important role In the clothes Intended for this summer, and the pt style so far seems to be the sash that ties In a how at the back, as Is shown In the sketch, and organdie does make crisp, perky tans there's no deny ing that The hat worn with this model Is of rose pink organdie, matching the original model nf this frock The crown Is draped with a ribbon of Joffre blue tied In a double how at the back. Small roses In pastel shades hold the ribbon to the brim ut the center front. Auk Klorenre Itnse If vou want In know where Ihe ro--rume sketched in todas'p Hrrna talk ran be -.feurerl.

When soap became unobtainable Belgium's housewives were In a quan, dary as to how to get their laundry clean until some one discovered that by letting clothes soak all day In water in which peeled potatoes hod been boiled and then rubbing them as you would In a lather the clothes would come out snow-white. Why not let potatoes help us as they have the European countries. If not to launder our clothes at least to take the place of wheat? The more potatoes we eat the less wheat we need. A medium sized potato, weichine about three una one-half ounces, supplies about as much starch as two small slices of wheat bread one-nair men tnicK. In other respects, also, the potato measures up well with wheat bread and even has the advantage over It In supplying certain salts which the body needs to counteract the acidity resulting from the use of much cereals, meat and egga. Last year the farmers planted In creased acreage of potatoes at consid erable expense and trouble. There are now over 100,000,000 bushels of potatoes in me country waning to De used. If they are not used and allowed to o-n in waste there Is no reason to believe that the farmers will be willing to plant such a crop next year. Both to release more wneat Immediately for those In Europe, then, and also to encourage the farmers, to plant a bumner nntsm crop for future emergency, we should In crease our consumption of potatoes now. Here Is a tested potato recipe. Try it tomorrow for your country's sake: , Two cupfuls mashed potato. Four tablespoonfuls minced onion. Two tablesooonfuls green nenne.- n. pimento. one-naif cuprui tomato. One egg. One teaspoonful salt Pepper to taste. One-third cupful ground peanuts. Mix the Ingredients well together.
