Thus, they advise the housewives will avoid the possibility of totally sugar less days to a large extent. "Turn to your war conservation cookbooks and refresh your memory OR ways to use sugar substitutes." says the bulletin. . "You will And many receipts for cakes but most of them were built to save wheat as well as sugar. We have this cause for rejoicing at least: Though we must cut down our use of sugar we still have wheat for cake making and our old stand-bys in time of sugar stringency—molasses, corn syrup, and honey—are still procurable," they say. • 1 The cakes made with syrup are not just like those made with sugar. In most cases they are less sweet. They do fill an emergency need for cake, however, they add. calling attention to the following receipts use but little sugar: Chocolate Cake 54 cup fat, 2 tablespoonaful sugar thrown or white), 2 eggs. 1 cup corn sjrup, 2 squares melted chocolate, in cup milk, 1 teaspoon vanilla, 154 cups wheat flour, 3 teaspoons baking pow der, 5. teaspoon salt.

Sift the dry ingredients together and add alternately with the milk) Add vanilla and fold in the stiffly beaten whites. Bake in loaf or layers in a moderate oven. For frosting cook 54 cup corn syrup until it forms a long thread when dropped from a spoon. Pour over the stiffly beaten whites of two eggs and beat until thick enough to spread.

In addition to voting for a bond issue to provide for bathing facili ties and for the.city's share of the cost of the memorial bridge in State street, two other loan questions of equal importance will be submitted to voters for their approval. One provides lor borrowing SIOO,- 000 for extension of trunk and small er sewers; and the other for $50,000 to pay for paving street intersections and in front of nonassessable prop erties such as churches and schools. Need Imperative City Engineer M. B. Cowden and City Commissioner W. H. Lynch de clared that with the rapid growth of the city, especially in the out lying districts, it is becoming im perative that the city provide more sewers and also pave highways which are being traveled more each month. It is understood that among the highways which will likely be paved in the near future are: Chestnut streets, Eighteenth to Nineteenth; Nineteenth, Chestnut street south to Philadelphia and Reading railway; Bellevue Road, Eighteenth to Nine teenth; Cameron, Calder to Maclay; Herr, Cameron to Fourteenth; South Front, Paxton to Iron alley; Jeffer son, north to Ltvision, and other i/nportant streets constantly in use. Paving to Go Ahead With a bond issue of $50,000 au thorized for paving work, $1,000,000 worth of asphalt paving can be laid in the city, officials estimate. In many districts property owners are anxious to have paving work done will sign petitions to that ef fecC but at present the city has prac tically no funds to pay for work done at intersections or in front of nonassessable properties. Important trunk line sewer exten sions will be made possible by voting in favor of the SIOO,OOO loan for that purpose. At least five miles of large sewers can be constructed, many smaller ones can be built, and others repaired. It Is planned to build a large I extension to the Spring creek sani tary sewer which will provide proper drainage for the district east of | Twenty-first street. The Mish Run I storm water sewer also can be ex- I tended about one-half mile east. Another large sanitary sewer is needed for the district north of Herr street and east of.Seventeenth street, i which, when built, will be made large enough so that when outlying districts are annexed to the city proper drainage can be provided for. Other drainage which should be provided according to, officials in cludes a storm water sewer in Wico nisco street and a large sanitary sewer in North Sixth street, above Division.
