Freda Hemphel's Favorite Recipe
Potato Salad
Vse small potatoes and boil in skin.
Take out of water as hot as possible
and remove skin. Then cut into thin
slices and place in bowl. Pour much
good olive-oil on potatoes and spdinkle
with salt, and allow to draw for ten
minutes. After ten minutes, pour
on the potatoes a cupful pf meat
boullon or meat-extract. Season to
taste with pepper, onions, mustard dis
solved in vinegar. Do not stir with
spoon, but shake the bowl vigorously.
Let stand for ten minutes, and it is
then ready to serve.
Author’s Note; It is important that
the bowl should be kept covered
whenever possible, and that it should
be kept standing in hot water so that
when served it will be warm. Another
important thing is to use plenty of oil
t>' keep the salad well moistened.

4 MOVEMENT IN LESLIE ♦
*+++++++++++++++
It will be of much interest to the
club women of the Third district to
learn that there has been recently org
anized in Leslie a Home Economics
Club. This new club met on Thursday
and a most enthusiastic meeting re
sulted. More than thirty members
have already been enrolled and the
number will doubtless increase. Miss
era Cocke has been elected president,
and Mrs. John Statham secretary and
treasurer.
At the meeting on Thursday, Dr. Wm.
B. McWhorter addressed the members
on the general lines of home sanita
tion, and malaria, its causes, treat
ment and prevention.
Miss Sarah Cobb of Americus gave
a most helpbul talk on Red Cross
work and Miss Rowena Long, our
county home demonstration agent en
dorsed the Red Cross work and gave
some most helpful preservation.
Besides the membership of the
club, a delegation from De Soto was
present and it is proposed to organ
ize at once a Home Economics Club
at that place, and an auxiliary of the
Red Cross.
We trust this new and flourishing
club will come into the State Federa
tion at once.

♦ 4444444 ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦
The Fidelity Community Club was
organized on yesterday at the Fidelity
school house near Plains. The closing
exercises of the school took place at
this time and the ladies living in this
neighborhood took advantage of the
occasion to organize a much needed
club, which will study the needs of
the community from a woman s stand
point and do all things possible for
its betterment, the aim of the organ
ization being the general welfare and
betterment of the community. The
canning and conservation of foods, as
well as the production of the same
will receive a large amount of atten
tion
Mrs. T. M. Finch was chosen presi
dent of the club, Mrs. W. B. Davidson,
vice president, and Miss Allene Mig
gins, secretary. The membership at
present consists of eleven very earn
est members, though there were twen
ty-three ladies present, the remainder
representing other communities. The
club will meet once each month. Miss
Rowena Long, demonstration agent,
was present and gave some very help
ful suggestions along the lines on
which this club will work.
A dinner and barbecue were pleas
ant features of the meeting.
4 MEAT TO BE SHORT
♦ ♦♦♦4444444 4
Not only will Georgia oe short of
the food supplies, such as corn, wheat
and vegetables, but the meat supply
will be very low and no doubt will be
the hardest of the food problems to
solve. Protein, the chief source of
which is in meat, is very essential in
the dietary of the entire family. The
meat problem can be partly solved
with poultry and in three different
ways; namely, preserving eggs, a
greater production of winter eggs and
a larger production of poultry tor
meat. Eggs can be preserved b>
means of wafer-glass (method given
last week) and each farm should put
up at least 30 dozen. Eggs are ven
valuable as a source of protein. At
least 50 mature pullets should be kept
by each farmer (and others) this win
ter for egg production.
Hens should be set through the rest
o* the spring and summer so that a
constant supply of friers and cooking
chickens can be had this fall and
winter. ROWENA LONG,
County Home Demonstration Agent.

4 THE HEALTH COMMITTEE ♦
4444444444444444
The chief purpose of the existence
of the Health Committee of the Wo
man’s Club is to try to keep before
the minds of the Americus public the
necessity for the strictest sanitary
conditions and to co-operate with our
Mayor and City Council in trying to
bling about such reforms as are nec
essary to protect the health of our
city.
We want to appeal to the house
wives, the merchants, druggists, liv
ery stable men, grocerymen. keepers
of public builudings; in fact, all cit
izens, to help in this necessary work
by screening houses (if wire screening
is too expensive for some of us, mos
quito netting is a cheap and suffic
ient substitute) by keeping back
yards, basements and all premises ab
solutely clean, observing the anti
spitting ordinance, keeping garbage in
covered cans to prevent the spread of
disease in households by complete is
olation of eating and drinking utens
ils, and the proper disinfecting of all
discharges from mouth, nose, bowels
and kidneys of patients who are ill of
any disease, whether pronounced in
fectious or not.
We would like to see a law requiring
soda founts and public eating places
to sterilize spoons, knives, forks and
all drinking and eating utensils. We
want to see picture theatres properly
screened and ventilated, and edibles in
grocery stores properly screened; in
fact, a general safeguard of public
health.
Nature has done her part, let us do
ours, to make our city the healthiest
and most beautiful in the country.

Chairman Health Committee, Woman’s
Club of Americus.
LISTEN. GIRLS, WHAT THIS

(
ATLANTA, Ga„ April 28.---That boys
are worse liars than girls, and that
the fair sex has been slandered for 1
2.000 years by scientists and psychol

something about it from a practical i

GERMANS PLANNING TO TAKE
LUNATICS INTO ARMY AS
A LAST DESPERATE RESORT
ATLANTA. Ga., April 28.—An un
censored letter from Switzerland to a
German-born resident in this city de
clares that Germany has become so
hard pressed for men that the govern
ment is planning to call into service
all the inmates of German insane asy
lums. except the most violent.
The plan is to take the milder kind
of lunatics and put them to work on
the roads and farms, and possibly even
to drill them in the home guard, if
possible. It is argued that much use
ful labor is wasted by the idleness of
insane men who are subject only oc
casionally to fits of violence or tem
per.
The news is chifly interestin as
showing the desperate expedients to
which Germany is forced as the “Iron
Ring” of the Allies is gradually tight
ened around her.
