MONDAY EVENING,
U. S. Soldiers to Go
Sockless in Summer
Washington, April 29.—Thousaruls
of American soldiers at training
camps and in the Held will go sock
less this summer. Army experts
have adopted the suggestion of al
lied leaders and will banish the heavy
gray sock during the warm months,
in the belief that sockless soldiers'
feet become toughened and fit to
withstand the rigors of winter woath
er in the trenches.
It is planned to serve out light
socks in place of the woolen ones.
In some cases the men will wear silk
socks. The men will be Instructed to
grease their feet well and wear the
light socks as long as possible. By
the time the light sock is worn out,
it is believeu the men's feet will be
toughened enough to permit them to
go through the summer without
socks.
Baron Rhondda, Food Chief,
Made 111 by Self-Denial
Tondon, April 23.—Baron Khond-,
da, food controller, who on Thurs
day tendered his resignation, which
had not been accepted by Premier
Lloyd George, is perhaps an example
of over-devotion in practice of his
own theories. He has been confined
to bed for several weeks.
I'.aron Uhonddu., from a very port
ly person, became in a short time
extremely thin. He had boasted tnat
he was able to maintain his health
on a far smaller ration than he was
imposing upon the public. His tem
porary physical collapse seems to
show that lie overdid the sh#rt-ratton
regimen.
PHEASANT EGGS
BOUGHT BY STATE!
i
Exclusive Propagation Work
Will Be Undertaken by
Hatching Process
•
Kleven thousand pheasant eggs
have been contracted for by the
State Game Commission and will be
distributed as fast as received to' the
State Game preserves and through
i game wardens to persons interested
in propagating pheasants so that
they can have them hatched. The
bulk of these eggs will come from
Bucks county where there are exten
sive holdings of pheasants and it is
believed that with care and co-oper
ation of sportsmen valuable work
in propagating the bird can be
done. Such experiments have been
tried in years gone by but it is be
lieved that better results will be ob
tained as a result of experience.
The reports coming to the Game
Commission offices from wardens
and nature lovers tell of large flocks
of wild turkeys which seem to have
survived the severe winter better
than expected and to have appeared
in regions where they have not been
observed for years. Some of the
flocks are believed to be part of the
progeny of wild and tame turkevs
which were liberated in the last few
years. The discovery of so many
turkeys was a gratifying surprise as
it had been feared that the birds had
been hard hit by the weather. The
reports on quail and deer and bear
are all favorable.
Contracts are being placed by
■lame officials for pheasants for de
! livery next year. The birds are be
ing looked up and it is believed that
• ome valuable additions to the
I state's game may be obtained. There
are hopes of securing some quail, but
owing to the demand for them in
this part of the country and the un
settled conditions in Mexico, coupled
with federal regulations, it is by no
means certain that any shipments
of large size can be bought Penn
sylvania's propagation work has stir,
red up other states and each one is
pretty carefully protecting its own
came and discouraging sales.
The movement for closing of coun
ties to the hunting of the ruffed,,
grouse is in progress all over the
state. Center. Chester and Monroe
have been added to the thirty-two
which have filed petitions and Ve
nango, Berks and Washington have
sent word that they desire to com
plete the papers. Dauphin is mov
ing, too.

To Teach War Cookery
ATTRACTIVE RECEIPTS
Mrs. Kate I {TOW Vaughn Comes to Harriaburg Under Auspices of
Harrbburg Telegraph in Interest of tlie
Conservation Policy
There has been more written and
thought about food In the last three
years than In the whole of the fifty
preceding this period. Women have
been more or less interested In the
question of food, how to prepare It
and how to serve it, but in our gen
eration it has not gone much further
than that. however, the
vital question is, "what does It cost?"
The women of Pennsylvania have
always been good cooks, but the de
termining factor in the food has
largely been whether or not the hus
band and .-children found it pleasant
to taste, and if it filled that gas
tronomic function, or if the guest 9
were complimentary and she earned
the reputation for herself of being
an excellent hostess, she did not
quarrel with the priced. So we doubt
if there Is much to t,each about the
"good things," but within the last
three years, we have awakened to
the fact that to have too many "good
things" of the old type is lacking
in patriotism; that it might even be
dishonest to go on having these
good things if the preparation of
these dishes required material need
ed for our soldiers and allies. The
past few months since we became
personally interested in the world
war, we have awakened to the fact
that our future peace and safety de
pends upon a normal food supply,
not only for our brave soldier boys,
but for our allies as well. The
methods employed by the women of
the United States will be a big de
termining factor in this great crisis.
It must be realized that the fields
of Europe have been for the most
part barren for some time, that in
stead of growing grains they are
rank with the Wood of slaughtered
soldiers. To supply the needs of our
allies to fight this unchristian war

SPROUL SPEARS
FOR WAR UNITY
Senator Makes a Ringing
Speech at Lancaster
Club Dinner
Senator William C. Sproul made
a resounding speech for subordina
tion of everything to winning the
war and George W. Wickersham,
former Attorney General, decried
the national administration's atti
tude toward honest, helpful criti
cism, at the dinner of the Young
Men's Republican Club in Lancaster
on Saturday night. The club is the
most influential organization in Lan
caster county and the Senator, a na
tive of the county, was given a splen
did greeting. Many representative
Republicans were present.
Senator Sproul in his introductory
remarks with which he eulogized
the Republican party for its devo
tion to duty in the present great na
tional crisis pleaded for patriotism
and not partisanship under all cir
cumstances in the present emer
gency.
"The people of Pennsylvania," he
said were "too much engaged now
with the patriotic duties of the hour
to pay any serious attention to those
who would endeavor to divert them
Iby parading up and down the state
airing their petty factional griev
ances and trying to win sympathy
for miserable political squabbles."
"The question of winning this war
is the real business before every
American at the present moment,
and most especially and essentially
it is before the people and govern
ment of Pennsylvania. Without this
state, its men and women and what
they produce this country would not
be in this war over night. Yes, with
out the co-operation of a dozen coun
ties in Pennsylvania, half of them
in the east and half of them in the
west, America would be helpless in
this great struggle. If we do not
win this war and dictate the terms of
peace, it will be our fate, if it shall
not, indeed, be worse, to be resolved
into an armed camp for the next
generation at least.
"Every energy of our national life
will have to be given to the training
and maintenance of a great arniy of
defense and a navy, Uie like of which
the world has never seen, to keep
the invader from our shores and to
prevent the collection of a tribute in
men and money such as was never
before -heard of in history. It is for
us here in Pennsylvania to bend
every energy for the national need,
and this great Republican state,
foremost in every great crisis Amer
ica has ever known, with its wealth,
its productiveness, the ability of its
great captains of industry now serv
ing the nation, the loyalty and skill
of ifs women, may be depended upon
to do its best, its superhuman best,
in this trial.
"It is for* us, then, and especially
is it the duty of our leaders, those
charged with the responsibilities of
our government, to set aside every
thing else and give to the thousand
things needing direction and co
ordination In Pennsylvania that at
tention which is required, that we
may do our utmost to serve the na
tion, to serve Democracy and to
serve civilization in this crucial hour.
This.is no time for pettifoggying
and ranting, the people are not Inter
ested In small matters nor small
men, it is a time for action. We
are hunting elephants to-day, not
mice." .
Mr. Wickersham said, in part:
"Comment and criticism are pecu
liarly obnoxious to the Wilson ad
ministration. At the very outbreak
of the war, it attempted to pass a
measure through Congress which
would have established a censorship
on newspapers utterly abhorrent to
our entire theory of government. It
has displayed a lust of power un
precedented in American history.

tered civilization, we must conserve
as never before, every mouthful of
food. We cannot offhand increase
the amount of food in the country,
but we can by extreme care, con
serve the food and make it go fur
ther. Every spoonful of sugar, ev
ery pound of llour or beef, or mut
ton. or pork, wasted, or even un
necessarily used, is prolonging the
war and making certain the death
of more of our own soldiers than
would otherwise have to lose their
lives in our defense.
Thp Telegraph proud of the spirit
of its women readers have shown in
patriotic work of all sorts, has ar
ranged for them a week of Home
Economics, beginning Monday, May
6, real home helps—cooking and
serving, what to cook and how to
cook it. and it is, therefore, with
great pleasure, we announce that
Mrs. Kate Brew Vaughn, well known
here by reason of her previous visits,
will have charge of the lectures.
Each lecture will be accompanied by
a practical demonstration of eco
nomic dishes, applicable to the needs
of the times. It will be a war-time
cooking school in the broadest sense
of the word, and is intended as the
Telegraph's contribution to the Food
Conservation program which is en
gaging the attention of the nation
just now. The theory of all house
hold problems has been Mrs.
Vaugh's life study but her method
of explaining the practice of these
theories is so simple that the most
inexperienced housekeeper will un
derstand clearly and intelligently the
"whys" of the procedure.
The Y. M. C. A. auditorium has
been secured for the lectures and the
sessions will he entirely informal and
free to all. Every woman in Harris
burg and vicinity Is invited to come
out each day as the guest of the Tel
egraph and ask all the questions
they like.

PAUL W. MILLER
Mr. and Mrs. H. J. Miller. 610
Schuylkill street, had the great
pleasure of entertaining their son,
Paul W. Miller, wagoner in the One
Hundred Ninth Machine Gun Bat-
Italon, Camp Hancock, during ten
days. While here he visited many
friends and made an address to the
children of Miss Lavene Grove's and
Miss Emily Brown's room at Camp
Curtin School.
The President vehemently opposed
the Congressional proposal to create
a Ministry of Munitions.
"We may regret as we do that the
President, has not seen tit to make
use of the splendid talents and
proved capacity of such men as
Theodore Roosevelt, William H. Taft.
I Charles E. Hughes, Elihu Root and
others. The judicious will approve
his refusal to accept the volunteer
military organization which Colonel
Roosevelt preferred, but surely It
would seem that only a narrow and
regrettable partisanship prevented
the President from tinding employ
ment for Mr. Roosevelt's great ac
tivity."
Mr. Wickersham called upon all
Republicans to Stand by the Presi
dent and the nation in the war.
