She knows what delicious breads can be made to take the place of the regu lation white bread, and she knows also that the wheat she thus releases is actually being sent to Europe, so while her sacrifice has been practically nil, her accomplishment ha been worth while. The wheatless day is now well in corporated In her daily programme of living, she prepares for it and accepts It as she does her - wash day. Ironing day, fish day or any other day. But the wheatless meal each day will require a little forethought and plan ning, for it means a slight readjust ment. In some states the wheatless meal is fixed by the State Federal Food Ad ministrator, and is usually the evening meal. In other states it is left to the discretion of tire housekeeper. If the latter is the case in your state. It is advisable to decide upon the wheatless meal every day, and then It will not be overlooked. For instance, if it is breakfast, let It always be breakfast, not breakfast to- ! maud for Normal School graduates the day, lunch tomorrow, the next day a thing completely forgotten, and then dinner the following day. Here are some suggestions for wheat less breakfasts, which may help if you decide to begin the day with a wheat less meal. And breakfast lends itself particularly well to the wheatless meal. 1.

HI m i n i i The Girls National Honor Guard of Portland haa endowed a bed at the Portland Nursery and Child's Hospital, which Is one of the unique institutions of the Northwest. Mrs. Harriet Flynn, manager of the hospital, provides the treatment and maintenance of the bed. Mrs. Flynn Is formerly of Chicago and St. Louis, and she is assisted by a staff of four graduate nurses. Children from merest infancy are taken at the hospital, which is located on East Fifteenth and Tillamook street. One of the interesting features Is the department for correcting habits of children, and this work has attracted not a little interest. The hospital is equipped to care for parents who Insist upon remaining with their children during critical treatment. The endowed bed of the hospital has been occupied by a 9-year-old boy who was suffering from an acute cardiac condition, and by a -young baby which failed to respond to nourishment. At seven months the baby weighed only seven pounds, but after a few weeks treatment it had taken on rive pounds. Another feature of the hospital is that it trains nursemaids. Girls and w ISS MARV FRANCES ISOM has made an appeal for guide books o France and Belgium which she wishe to give to the soldier lad3 who are soon to go to France. Anyone having Baedeker or other similar book will be doing a great good by sending the vol ume to Miss Isom. The men of our National Army who are now in France, or who are soon to be there, are naturally eager to learn all they can about French life, French customs and France in general. No where is this information to be found in clearer or more condensed form than in the compact volumes compiled by the indefatigable Herr Karl Baedeker. -ot Leipsig, and turned out in many lan guages in his printing office there. But the war, which worked such havoc in other ways in Germany, also stopped Herr Karl's presses, and even had they kept revolving at their accustomed speed, their product could not have got beyond the German border. So it came to pass that the demand for these guide books during the early years of the war used up the entire stock available in America, and the French titles, at least, have passed en tirely out of the market and are no longer procurable. Consequently it is up to the thou sands of people who have Baedekers of their own. to supply the needs of our men. The war service of the American Library Association is making a ape cial appeal for copies of these guide books, especially those for Northern France and for Belgium, although those for Southern France, for Italy, and for other European countries, are very wel come. There should be ' an ironical pleasure in making these gifts, since it will be in a certain sense, turning Ger many's own guns against her. At least it will be turning to the service of the American Army, German effort and research. East "Woodstock Red Cross meets every Tuesday in the sewing-room of the school.
