THE TRUTH ABOUT
GERMANY
By MARIE BONINI BROWN
What Used to Be Called "Swine Food" in
Germany Now Is Accepted Gladly.
A Harbor Full for Crippled Ships
NO. B—HORSEMEAT AND ELEPHANT MEAT.
It was in Leipzig- that 'I ate elephant meat.
I had gotten used to queer dishes by that time, although this
was early this year, about in January, bfefore Germany seemed to
be so badly pinched. But I had eaten horse meat
a number of times, also the strong tasting
"horse" carrots which, before the war was only
good for pigs. In fact, I ate many things in
Germany which, before the war were called
• \ • y "swine food," but that which came to be accepted
thankfully.
'-jpC .-\ Different kinds of vegetable tops are cooked
M f° r greens and salads made of them. The-sol
/ ft-'MK have been eating roots for two years.
r . /&• Of course, salads cannot be made with oil
as there is none. But there is plenty of vinegar
in Germany. Two other things which I saw in
plenty were lettuce and spinach. They were
high-priced, but we could buy an almost unlimited quantity.
The lettuce we would cook in Its
own moisture, put it In a skillet, put
\ en a lid, and let it cook slowly down
until it was Just like spinach. It
took six or eight heads of lettuce to
! make enough greens ror one per
son.
j It was tasteless, though, for the salt
| In Germany has no flavor. It is im
j possible to set pepper or any other
I seasoning. So one can imagine what
It would be like to make a meal of
| spinach or lettuce cooked In this
way, without seasoning, with only t
; tiny dab of butter, with no meat and
with one piece of our, black bread
to make it •'tasty."
j ELEPHANT MEAT IS TASTY.
| But my elephant meat experience
was unique. There is a very fine zoo
In Llepslg. and I and a girl friend,
, a newspaper correspondent, saw the
sign in a 'restaurant as we were
walking along the street. "Elephant
I .meat here." We went In and got It.
I paying 75 cents for a very small por
tion and two tiny potatoes.
The meat was good, tasting a little
, like beefsteak, although with a little
bit of wildness about it which re
: minded me of venison. It was very
: veiny and rather tough There was
j r.o fat. It was not until after I had
I eaten it that I learned the animal
! bad died—from .-tarvatlon, probably—
; and, sooner than waste it, the people
ate It. Some of the residents ot
! Leipzig objected but others said they
may as well eat it as eat other thins*,
horse meat for instance.
But horse meat I* good. It, too, In
tougher than beef, lint it linn a good,
rich taate. I certainly would not
want to ent It, only through neces
sity. but man; n good meal I have
made of It.
When you take your meat card to
get your allowance, you are not per
mitted to make a choice of what you
want. You take Just what the butcher
gives .you. Sometimes it Is so tough
you only can boil it. sometimes it
can be roasted. If you have enough
fire.
One thing I never would take,
though, preferring t~ go hungry—that
was ground meat. You did not know
what might be in it. I would not
have been surprised had they put the
rats the Germans are dreading will
appear yet on their tables, or cats
or anything else.
BUYING CHOCOLATE.
On this trip with my girl friend,
which we took Just before we were
"Interned" in Berlin, the little towi, |
of Leubech. stands out in my memory. I
almost with a halo around it. That
was where I bought the first candy
I had had in two years.
Leubach is a little town, almost a
village, noted for nothing in th-j
world, containing nothing of interest,
but I never will forget it. We were
walking along the street when we
saw. in a shop window, cakes of
chocolate. We hardly could believe
our eyes
We walked in and asked the price,
and we bought some. We were per
mitted each, only one small piece,
about what would be bought for 10
cents here—we paid 50 cents for t.
gladly.
We walked out of the store, around
the block, and back again and each
| bought another portion. Out we
1 went, around the block again, and
each bought another portion Out
we went in our drzzy round, thank
fully clutchintr the precious choco
' late we already had. our minds full
of hope of ereater quantities to come,
i our eyes watching for some German
official to rome up and arrest us.
1 Six times we walked in that little
! store and bought chocolate until the
j patience T>f even 'hat good-naturet,
I shopkeeper vanished and. when we
j came in the seventh time, he said j
j sernly, "Verboten."

DR. DIXON URGES
CARE FOR TEETH
The Commissioner of Health
Points Out Importance of
Starting Early and Right
Dr. Samuel G. Dixon, State Com
missioner of Health, followed up his
talk on taking care of children's
health now that school days have
begun, by pointing out the impor
tance of taking care of the young
teeth. Dr. Dixon holds that the view
that children's teeth do not need at
tention is erroneous and that it
should be the mother's part to see
that mouths are not distorted bv
teeth.
Dr. Dixon's talk which is address
ed especially to mothers is as fol
lows:
"Good teeth are necessary for
health. What adds more to the i
beauty of the human face than a
mouth full of fine teeth?
"The first teeth need great care.
First, the mother should see that
the mouth is not overcrowded so
that its form may be maintained for
the second teeth when they come.
"The baby teeth are softer than
those that come after and, there
fore, acids must be scrupulously
avoided, particularly in mouth
washes, as they will destroy tl se
important teeth which should be
kept in the mouth as long as they
are in good condition.
"Your doctor or druggist should
be able to tell you about the acidity
of the tooth preparations that are
on the market.
"It is always a pleasure to learn
how to do things for one's self; it
makes you self-reliant and at the
same time stimulates you to seek
further knowledge.
"If you suspect your tooth prepa
ration of being acid you can buy a
few cent* worth of litmus paper
from your druggist, and by dipping
a very small piece of this into your
mixture a reddish tinge will appear
on the paper If there is anv acid
present. Jf acid, forbid the use of
' But we did not care. We had* riches
untold in. the six squares of gr!oss>
i sweetness.
There is another sHly thing abo.it
> the rules. The shopkeeper sold us
those extra portions willingly, smil
ing at our returns, but would not sell
us even two or three pieces at
one time.
• THE PORT OF CRIPPLED SHirS.
In Hamburg we had a wonderful
! experience. Walking Just outside of
: the town, we topped a lirtle hill and
i j there below us lay thousands and
I thousands of lights—Just like a big
I i illuminated town.
, "Oh, doesn't that look like New
Yorkl" I said. And we immediately
. started for them.
i : It was still early evening, but we
. could not distinguish what the lights
s ; marked. Finally, as we neared the
lights, a man stopped us.
Upon questioning him, he told us
. that we were near the harbor and
that the lights were on the hun
dreds of ships which were being built
, and repaired.
i After showing him our passports
I and giving him all information about
J ourselves, he permitted us to go
, through, and to go out on a little boat,
l ; one of those which took the work-
I I men back and forth from the shore
. j to the boats.
, Never in my life have I seen a more
. beautiful sight than those boats, all
illuminated. They were spread out
) until. Just as I said, they looked like
a city. The man pointed out the big
, ship, the "Imperator," which was ly
ing in the harbor.

on the aldea of the boata, for there
are only a few boata aad no mam

We only stayed an hour or so. but
I It was wonderful—simply the sight of
;so many ships. Since then, I have
wished our aviators could find that
: harbor and destroy the ships with
j bombs—if they could do It without in-
I Jurlng the men. I would not want the
; workmen hurt, but It would be a won
! derful thing to cripple Germany by
destroying all those ships.
A number of times since the United
I' States entered the war I have tried
to find out where the U-boat bases
were, thinking that information might
be of use when I got back. But |
never could. The only information I
1 could get was that, usually, they left
from Bremen. And everybody knows
I that.
That is the only thing I ever did
try to find out. And the attempt to
I keep my old passport was the only
thing I did that was not strictly in
accordance with rules and regulations,
j The man on that boat was very nice
;to us. When he brought us back he
1 questioned us some more and then let
j us go.
It was In Leipzig that I bought a
i spool of thread and paid 25 cents for
J It. Thread Is very scarce in Germany.
It is Impossible now to get wool. I
don't know how the soldiers will be
t supplied with socks.
' Even when I left the supply of gray
annd blue yarn had given out and
women were knitting socks for the
soldiers of any color of yarn.
I often have seen glimpses of bright
green, pink, baby blue and other In-
I congruous colors, when a
by crossing his feet inadvertently
permitted a glimpse of sock. It looked
; funny to see pink socks on some of
I those big, gruff bullies of soldiers.

! the prepaartlon. If a tooth powder
\ is used it should be well shaken up
with water before making the acid
I test.
"Plain chalk with a soft brush or
l! rag will do very well to cleanse the
1 teeth of children both night and
I morning. The mouth should be well
| rinsed with water after each meal.
. and just before retiring it is well
for both adult and child to rinse the
' mouth with a stf-ong solution of
| baking soda. This.destroys the acid
jit.v that might have been generated
I In the mouth from foodstuffs.

~ are necessary to maintain the" health

i j "The teeth represent live parts

. I tected. I guess no one will doubt the
;jlife of a tooth when suffering from
. j a bad toothache.
■ j "As the general health depends so
| much upon the health of the teeth
and mouth we must all realize that

Captain Harrell Claims Peo
ple Are Wishing Cause
Well but Are Not Acting
: "There Is only one way to win
| this war, and the man who fails to
give his country the very best he is
| capable of at this time deserves to be
branded as a traitor." This was the
emphatic statement of Captain W. F.
Harrall at the local Army Recruiting
Headquarters this morning when dis
cussing the duty of the Harrlsburg
district to furnish a large number
of recruits for the conflict now
ing waged In the cause of liberty and
democracy in Europe.
"The people as a whole are not
taking enough interest in this war,"
continued Captain Harrell. "The
average person wishes the cause well,
but Is willing to trust a great deal
to Providence."
Must Awake
In the opinion of Captain Harrell
the young men of this country must
soon awaken to a seriousness of their
responsibility. There are many va
cancies in the Regular Army. Prac
tically every branch of the service is
calling for men. It is not enough to
wish the cause well. Young men
must enlist.
If enough young men had enlisted
at the outset to successfully conduct
America's part In this conflict, the
moral influence would bo equal to
the physical force exerted by tho
vast army of men. The draft should
not be considered a. primary force,
but a reserve force. Young men
capable of performing military duty
should not wait to be drafted, but

FIRE PREVENTION
DAY OCTOBER 9
Governor Brumbaugh Issues
Proclamation Designating
That Day
Tuesday, October 9, has been pro
claimed by Governor Brumbaugh as
"Fire Prevention Day" in Pennsyl
vania and the people of the State
are urged on that day to clear up
and remove from premises "all rub
bish, trash and waste." The Gov
ernor also suggests that special ef
forts be made to see that properties
are In good condition and that heat
ing apparatus and chimneys be put
into proper shape, while the protec
tion on all buildings of a public
and semipublic character be in
spected.
The proclamation is as follows:
"The menace of fire is greater
this year than ever before. The ab
normal strain upon production is In
Itself an element of fire hazard,
while the activities of hostile in
cendiaries threaten in many parts of
the country, causing the destruction
of needed supplies of foodstuff and
other vital staples. These fires will
strike at the foundation of national
power and wealth by the elimination
of l'esources.
"The fire loss throughout Penn
sylvania as reported by the State
fSre Marshal is unnecessarily heavy
and must be recognized as a pre
ventable evil. This calls for constant
and especial effort on 'the part, of
our people at this time, that under
war time conditions wo may use ev
ery endeavor for its elimination. This
can be accomplished. It becomes the
imperative public duty of all our
people to assist in the prevention of
fire by tho removal of all dangerous
conditions.
"As a means of arousing our citl-
ens to the magnitude of the fire
waste and show-ins; their Individual
responsibility, and inducing them to
take more interest in the subject of
tire prevention, 1 do designate and
set aside Tuesday, Oc.ober 9, 1917,
as Klre Prevention Day, and that
said day he observed by our people
by a general cleaning up and re
moval of all rubbish, trash and
waste from the premises.
"That all heating apparatus and
chimneys be carefully gone over and
placed in proper condition for win
ter use.
"That all public and private in
stitutions, (lour mills, food store
houses, manufacturing plants, hotel,
factories, theaters and all other
buildings be carefully Inspected and
necessary improvements be made
that will further protect the prop
erty and safety of the occupants and
contents.
"That local authorities give attcn
titon to the matter of better build
ing regulations, tire protection and
prevention, as well as better and
increased apparatus for fire lighting.
"That lire drills be held in all
public and private schools, public or
private institutions and that instruc
tion be given in lire prevention and
Are protection."
Barber Would Do Away
With Egg Shampoos
South Bend, Ind., Sept. 24. J. D.
Kilmerer. a barber of this city, has a
scheme to save 250,000,000 eggs a
year for the consumption of the
people. He has put his plan before
National Food Director Hoover and
received from him assurance of its
consideration. Kilmerer would do
away with egg shampoos during the
war. He says that on an average,
which is considered low, each barber
in the United States gives three egg
shampoos a week, using two eggs.
Kecent statistics show that there are
SOO.OOO barbers. Thus if the Govern
ment placed a ban on egg shampoos
for men it would mean the saving of
93.600,000 eggs each year provided
each barber averaged but three
shampoos. But other barbers In the
city say the average of three Is too
