Three men to a bed. eight hours each, and woe be to him who ranks a couple of snores over the time limit, is the great steel district's solution for the present of the prob lem of housing the inrush of thous ands of workers to one of the largest centers of war activities in America. Tony is sleeping peacefully is one of the beds In the long dormitory. The tjme for changing shifts arrives. The porter pushes Tony and the lat ter grunts, partly crawls and partly fails out of bed. and reaches for his clothes on the floor. As he starts to get into his weeing outfit a huge grimy figure on the other side of the bed begins to take off his shoes. In a minute or so Tony has dressed and "beat it," and the newcomer is content and noisy in deep slumber. This is a scene duplicated in many a boarding house along the south shore of the lake, according to Chi cago building contractors, who are now swarming over Northern In diana towns to build more houses for workmen and their families.

Silk Stockings Ban Vexes Service Women Philadelphia.—Women in Phlla-i delphia engaged in war work and wearing uniforms, insist that certain regulations prescribed governing the i wearing apparel of women yeomen are absurd. The idea, they say, that tre girl who patriotically accepts a rating in the United States Navy' must not wear silk stockings is ridiculous. They insist that if the girls have been educated to wear silk stockings, no naval uniform designer ' has any business interfering with' their stockings when prescribing their uniforms. Locally, the uniformed w®men are permitted to wear silk stockings, lisle thread or wool as they please. Fur-- ! thermore, they can select any color; | they prefer and ever wear fancy ones. ; Why should not a woman yeoman J ; they ask. be permitted to do the same j | thing? How much more attractive a wo-' 1 man's ankle looks in a silk stocking | they dismiss as unworthy considera-| > tion. The possibility that a display of silk hose is to be preferred to an j exhibition of a cotton variety should a yowoman get the habit of hooking top, a habit quite common among top, a hibit quite common among her brother officers in all depart ments of the service, they also de >cllne to admit is worth considering. They base their criticism solely on the comfort a woman finds when she feels her trotters incased in silk j and insist that no naval regulations should be permitted to rob her of that pleasure, especially as she has volunteered for a patriotic service, j England Grows More Potatoes; Fears Shortage London.—To relieve the food shortage England is growing more potatoes this year than ever In its history.

The returns upon which these figures were based came | from persons farming one acre or; more and showed an Increase twenty-five per cent, in the 1918 : nlanting as compared with that of j 1917. Allotments and cottage gardens i were not included in the census of ; the food officials.

It says: "Every Sunday afternoon at 6 o clock there comes a modest tap at the door. A little boy and girl stand outside, tiny. pale, as thin as shad ows. They shrink Into a corner, and if you ask them vhat they want a little voice whispers anxiously: "Please give us one small piece of bread.' "Children knock at many, many doors and yet only three wretched little scraps of bread are to be seen In their dirty little aprons. They get the same answer everywhere. "We haven't bread enough, for our selves; here's a kreuzer (about half a cent) for you." The little chap shakes his head en ergetically and plucks his little sister back. "No money: father won't allow It." Poubtless it is hard enough for him to see his children go begging bread, and if he were not ill he would not i even allow this, but they are hungry, and they bes for what is their good I and three times sacred right as chll- I dren —they beg In order to be satis- ■ fled. Unfortunately these are not the only ones who go from door to door begging bread In order to obtain the j least that man can ask for, and' I L=tJ CLARK'S CUT-RATE C3| Nuxated iron Medicines Stores—3oo Market Sfreet—3o6 Broad Street - Mercolfzed Wax * 590 I I SPECIALS FOR SATURDAY ONLY | 1 Mellinjs Food Full Pint Mineral, Oil I NO MAIL ORDERS FILLED—NONE SOLD TO DEALERS 21!
