TUESDAY EVENING,
FREIGHT HEAVY
AT RUTHERFORD
Another Record Sunday For
Reading; General Superin
tendent Here All Day
There was a time not many years j
since, when railroads shut down all
but perishable freight on Saturday |
night and resumed Sunday night at
midnight. Ntjf so now. Railroads j
are showing greater activity on Sun
days than during the week. This
is so on the Heading and has been
the order for many weeks.
With Rutherford as the one im- 1
portant center for the movement of
freight east and west, north and j
south, the yards at this place have!
been doing a record business for j
many Sundays. The total number j
ol' cars moved by the Reading last i
Sunday was 18,000. This included |
coal and general merchandise I
freight.
Busy at Rutherford
There were forty-five trains east I
on the Lebanon Valley division, the i
total number of cars being 3,250. j
This represents only the freight east-'j
ward from Rutherford yards. Trains ,
southward wer e also heavy. Includ- j
ed in the large hauls made Sunday ]
out of Rutherford, 2,000 cars were 1
sent through to East Penn Junction
and turned over to connecting lines. |
On the main line south ot Read- i
ing the total number of cars handled
was 3,500. General Superintendent
W. H. Keffer, ol' the Reading system. ;
was at Rutherford on Sunday and:
personally superintended the work j
of getting the big trains moving in
and out of the years. The increased
trackage at this point will soon fur- !
ther increase in traffic from this|
point.
Arrest Six Employes on
Copper Stealing Charge
Philadelphia, June 19.—Accused
of stealing or receiving 27,000 pounds
of copper ingots from the Pennsylva- i
ilia Railroad yards at Greenwich, in :
the extreme southeastern section of i
the city, six men were arrested last i
night by railway and city detectives j
and immediately arraigned before
Magistrate Baker for hearings. The
copper was in transit to the allies, j
where it was to be used In cannon
making. It Is said to be worth $lO,-
000.
The six men taken into custody
were Benjamin Coumbe, Michael
Roberts, Francis Donnelly, John J.
Mahoney, Custora Rinza and Isx-ael
Dennenberg. Dennenberg, who is a
junk dealer, was held in $5,000 ball
for a further hearing to-day, while
the five others, who were employed
in the yards, arc charged with steal
ing the metal, and were held In
$2,000 bail each for a hearing at the
same time.

A Practical Way
to Make
COCONUT CUSTARD PIE
1 Can of Baker's Fresh Grated
Coconut; cupful of sugar:
pinch of salt; % cupful of
milk; 2 eggs.
Beat eggs, milk, sugar and salt to
gether; add can of coconut; pour into
pie tin lined with pie crust. Bake in
moderate oven on bottom rack thirty
to thirty-five minutes, or until set.
Try with silver knife; if knife comes
out dry the pie is done; if the custard
and coconut separate it has baked
too long. This fills a seven-inch pie
I of regular depth. The crust is made
as follows:
Sift one cupful of flour, pinch of
salt into bowl; add two level table
spoonfuls of pure lard (or double any
other shortening); rub in lightly until
well mixed; add enough cold water
to hold together. The less water and
handling the better the crust will be.
Roll out on floured board. This will
make a high edge on the pie.
P. S. Pastry flour is best.

BAKERS WILL NOT
TAKE BACK BREAD
Respond to Pica of Council of
Defense; Great Waste
of Food
As a measure to prevent waste of
bread, Schmidt's bakery announced
to-day tlipt It will comply with the
request ot Jle Council of National De
fense to discontinue the practice of
taking: back from grocers unsold
bread that has become stale on the
grocer's hands. The order will go In
to effect June 25. The letter from
the Council of Defense, explanatory
of the movement and which was re
ceived by the bakery company to
day, is as follows:
"In the present emergency, the im
portance of husbanding the wheat
supply is such that all wastes of
wheat, no matter how small, must be
stopped. With this necessit in view,
the Commercial Kconoray Board has
conducted an inquiry into the whole
sale bakery practice of taking back
Unsold bread from retailers. The in
vestigation! covered representative
bakeries in all parts of the United
States. ' It appears that upproxiate
ly 4 per cent, of all the bread deliver
ed by wholesale bakers is later re
turned to them, and that at least one
third of this is sold for animal feed.
Bilker* Agree
"A portion of the bread returned is
sold at reduced prices to charitable
Institutions and the poor. The board
points out. however, that with the
cost of carrying this bread to and
fiom the retailers eliinated the baker
could afford full as well as now to
sell the same amount of bread at the
same reduced prices.
"With few exceptions the bakers
consulted agreed that the waste of
labor and human food involved in the
practice of accepting returns is detri
mental to the public interest and
should be discontinued.
"This also is the conclusion of the
board and of the Council of National
Defense.
"You are therefore hereb request
ed in common with all other whole
sale bakers, not to accept returns of

U. S. TARS HAVE
BIG TIME ASHORE
Thousands of Jackics From
Fighting Craft Enjoy
Selves Well
With the United States Atlantic
Fleet, Juno 19. lt is two bells in
the afternoon watch when the shrill
trill of the bos'n's whistles are heard
piping the crews of the mighty dread
naughts to the rails and the sing-song
cries of the bos'n's mates carry out
over the water, "Liberty party to mus
j ter."
Two long white lines form on deck
and every man stands rigidly at at
i tention while officers pass along
marking the appearance of each one.
[Their uniforms are spotlessly white.
I Their shoes are freshly blackened. On
every sun-tanned face is worn a broad
I smile in expectation of the sport that
the afternoon will bring. Then th
I sharp word of command rings out on
deck and the wlMte line of sailors be
gins to move forward toward the
gangway and the men go over the
side to the waiting launches.
When the dock at the athletic Held
is reached the men from the launches
tumble out pellmell and immediately
begin a raid on the canteen. Pop is
i sold faster than corks can be pulled.
I The man who gets anything over the
canteen counter tight* for it. You
i must come with your change ready or
Igo without. There is too much busi
j ness to stop lo cnange money.
A pump receives the overflow from
| the canteen, and those who have been
; unable to spend their money for candy
j or pop take their chances on wetting
| ducked under the pump. A farmer
drives on to the field with a load of
I watermelons. At fifty cents apiece his
I watermelons last about fifty seconds.
A colored cook's helper buys a melon
| and dives into it, when a huge hand
belonging to a Jackie from an Indiana
| farm buries the darkey's face into the
melon up to his ears.
The thousands of jackies swarm
over the field. Hundreds of them
break and run for the beach for a
I swim. A crowd of them gather at
I target practice with small rifles. Six
lof the ten baseball diamonds are
promptly put into use by scrub teams.
And then more launches from the
battleships come In, bringing the star
baseball teams from four or the bat
tleships. A double-header is to be
played between four of the best teams
in the fleet in a series to determine
the fleet championship. The grand
stands fill rapidly, and soon they ar
a swelling sea of white suits and red
and brown faces as the sailors cheef
their ship's teams on to victory.
