For the patriotic woman citizen who
has been serving her country by hav
ing one wheatless day a week, the pro
gramme of two wheatless days, and
one wheatless meal each day during
the week, has not come as a hardship.
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.

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.
