9 Nancy Wynne Talks of Show
Club Tonight Various. Other Matters
Discussed
T SUSPECT that party out at tho Hunt
" Ingdon Valley Country Club tonight Is
folng to be great, don't you? I love
the things the men give themselves.
Both the army and navy men have no end
of talent, It seems to me, and when they
set a chance to put it across the boards
I'm very glad to hear It.
Well, anyway, you know they need abqut
$20,000 to complete the recreation building
which Is now In progress for the sailors
and marines at the Philadelphia Navy
Yard. So tonight the affair given out ,at
the Huntingdon Valley will be for that
benefit.
It's to be a vaudeville, and It's to start
at ,7 o'clock, I'm told, and it's under the
( auspices of the Huntingdon Valley Branch
It of the Women's Navy Auxiliary of the
?$ Red Cross. Don't you have to be long-
breathed to speak the titles of things
these days? They are so long you pretty
nearly pass'out before you get through
saying them all in one breath.
The vaudeville is to be called "An Eve
ning with the Navy." and It will be held
on the lawn of the country club, and that's
one 'reason why it Is to begin at 7. you
v see, because with the daylight saving the
show can be given out of doors without
artificial light up to nearly 9 o'clock.
After the show there will be. dancing in
the ballroom.
Every one who lives out on the Reading
la interested, it seems to me, for I've heard
about it from every one I've met. All the
younger girls are working to sell tickets,
v and the patronesses for the evening are
Mrs. John Worrell Pepper, Mrs.' Charles
E. 'Brlnley, Mrs. George'H. Frazler, Mrs.
John Gribbell, Mrs. J. Howard Gibson, Mrs.
George P. Lasher, Mrs. J. Bertram Llppln
cott, Mrs. William S. Blight, Jr., and Mrs.
John W. Brock.
Mrs. John Nalbro Frazler, too, has a
good deal to do with the preparations, I'm
told. It's going to be fine, really. ' And the
entire talent will be furnished by the
marines and sailors now stationed at
League Island.
VTTHiLE speaking of marines, my heart
, ' goes out In sympathy to Mr. and Mrs.
Theodore Reath over the news of the death
of 'Bob, who was fighting in France with
the marines and was killed in action.
Bobbie went Into the marine corps early
In the war; that Is, since our entrance
into the war, and has done some splendid
work. He Joined the marines because
they would take him under twenty, the
same time Syd Thayer Joined. It's hard to
remember Just when different boys did
enlist, but I am very sure that Bob was
one of the first. His sister, Elsa Reath,
was married late last f nil, 'you remember,
to Lieutenant Jack Appleton. She had
been engaged to him a little more than a
year. In fact was the first girl in her
debutante year to become engaged. Ted
Is a brother and so is Brannan, who mar
ried Maisle Morris, and there's a smaller
brother who Is very much younger. Bob's
death came as a great shock, for after all,
even though you know you will be apt to
get such news from "over there" at any
moment about those nearest and dearest to
you, you always hope there's a fighting
chance. And, as a matter of fact, there
is always a fighting chance. Bobble's name
was Thomas Roberts Reath, but because
his cousin was called Tom the family
called him Bob.
It is and must always be a consolation
to his parents and family that he gave his
Ufe In a great and Just cause, and that
he did not give it in vain we know very
well, for victory will be ours one day,
though, alas, the flower of our American
manhood must be crushed, I fear, many
times before we finally gain it. The knowl
edge, however, that our boys have fought
Uke men and heroes and that it they have
died have died like men performing their
duty, is a great thing.
THERE is going to be another reception
tonight for soldiers and sailors at the
Historical Society of Pennsylvania, 1300
Locust street. -These affairs each Satur
day night are very enjoyable and men in
uniform 'are admitted without cards. I
passed there last week when the fun was
on and wished I was wearing a uniform
myself, it sounded so delightful.
CHARLIE wanted oh! so much to go out
of doors. But then, you see, Charlie
was only three years old and Just had on
his first white trousers, and it was drlz
"zllng and cold on the other side of
-the window. So when Charlie asked,
"Mother, may I go out in the yard?" it
was not surprising that mother should
answer "No." It went on at intervals of
two or three minutes. "Mother, mayn't
I go 'out, pie ea se?" And "Please,
moth er, won't you let me go out Just
, for a teeny, weeny little while?"
Finally mother fixed him with a Btern
ye and said, "Charlie, if you don't stop
bothering me, I'll throw you out of the
window."
' There was utter silence for a moment,
and then as mother came back to the room
with some more stockings to mend Charlie
remarked, "If you throw me out of the
window, mother, may I stay out a little
while?"
If perseverance wins the day that young
man i should be a 'winner. How about it?

SHOWS WARTIME COOKING
State College Expert Demonstrates in City
Hall Courtyard
Miss Helen Rogers, of the faculty of State
College, conducted demonstrations of war
cooking twice yesterday In the Information
booth of the City Hall courtyard. The lesson
eery Friday morning and afternoon, given
free, to women of Philadelphia on wnr foods.
Is devoted to canning and drying of fruits and
egetables. Eery Tuesday morning and
afternoon the subject Is "Whcatlesa Breads "
With a display of canned foods made at
home to illustrate points In her lecture and
with egetables In course of prepaiatlon for
other cans and Jars on a hot stoe. Miss
Rogers answered questions of the circle ot
students who brought her their perplexing
problems.
String beans were prepared, from the
p'rellmlnary cleansing and removed of strings,
through fhe blanching process of hot water
followed by a plunge Into cold water, through
the intermittent steps to their entrance intu
glass-topped Jars. Caning beans was shown
to be a simple process, but one that may, 11
carelessly done, result In spoiled Jars.
One housekeeper brought the question ot
flat sour beans, which she stated she had
found In two of a collection of forty Jars,
piepared from her own garden
The greatest care must be taken. Miss
Rogers said, In selecting only fresh, perfect
fruit or vegetables. A few spoiled ones might
have caused the loss of a whole can. Im
perfect sterilization or defective Jars might
also cause the loss of fruit or egetables by
decay.
That methods and length of time In cook
ing may ary with the kinds of vegetables or
fruits was demonstrated In the preparation
of seseral varieties.
MORE DRASTIC PLANS
FOR SAVING OF SUGAR
Headquarters to, Be Opened Here
on Monday Firms Must Re
port by July 15
In consideration of the fact that more than
26,000 commercial users of sugar must file
reports of sugar on hand and obtain certif
icates before they can purchase other sup
plies, "sugar headquarters" will be opened
In the PomeranU Building, on Fifteenth
street, between Market and Chestnut streets,
Monday.
Candymakers, canners, restaurants, hotels,
hospitals. Ice cream manufacturers and soda
fountain proprietors must file their reports
before July 16 or lose their chance to buy
sugar till after next January or possibly be
banned from getting it for the duration ot
the war.
J. E. Bacon will be in charge pf the new
headquarters. He will be assisted during the
next two weeks by Edward T. James, of the
Corn Exchange National Bank, and more
than flftf school teachers who have volunteer
ed their services.
The visible commercial supply of sugar at
this time Is said to be 56 6 per cent of the
supply one year ago, and the most serious
shortage has come since the first of the year.
It Is estimated that 1,600,000 tons must sup
ply the nation for the next six months and
that Is why the ration of three pounds a
month for each person has been established.
Individuals dr firms can purchase sugar
hereafter only by certificate and- this certi
flcate must be obtained from the food ad
ministration office. Householders may pur
chase no more than two pounds at one time
for home consumption, or twenty-five pounds
If they want to use It In canning.
The local Investigators are busy watching
for hoarders ind other violators of the sugar
rules. Any person having more than thirty
days' supply In the house, and any firm pos
sessing more than three months' supply on
hand, will be considered hoarders.
