DOROTHY D ALTON 19 FAS- CINATING WIDOW IN NEW TRIANGLE PLAY, j : cr. The latest Triangle play, "Wild Winship's Widow," by John L;nch, in which Thomas H. Ince will pre sent Dorothy Dalton as star, is a .rem edy of manners and good clothes. The story is enacted in a fashionaMe southern resort where a few old man sions of the first families of Virslula stand in the background and lend dignity and tone to the functions at the great hotel of the place. Miss Dalton's part is that of a young and beautiful widow, who has placed the memory of an unworthy spouse upon a pedestal,' made an idol of it and extracted an immense a mount of enjoyment out of her mis ery. But she discovers her mistake and becomes almost reckless in her attempts to prove that she is still young and attractive enough to get real zest out of life and to win the admiration of the masculine sex. The -Or I V u u V.BOIEBIRD i I i VIOLET :.0 I MEIlfEREAU! V America's great corn crop, exceed ing 3,000,000,000 bushels, will save thu world's food situation, oUlciuIs of the United States food administration be lieve. Corn Is the nation's best food cereal, housewives are beginning to realize. It contains all tiro elements needed to keep the body in a state of heulth and when used according to the scores of trieI recipes,- especially whuii' com bined with an added portion of oil or fat, will sustain life Indefinitely. In dian warders in colonial days lived on parched corn alone for many days at a time, ' and at Valley Forge parched corn was at times the sole ration of the Continental soldiers. Owing to transportation difficulties caused by the war the corn crop moved more slowly to market this year than ever before. Now, however! the cereal is reaching the millers and consumers. In the meantime the nation's surplua wheat has been sent to Europe), Today there are approximately 30 bushels, of corn for every American. This quantity is greater by Ave bush els thun In former years. Corn has become the nation's ina.'n stay In the crisis of war. . Just as this cereal saved the first American colonists from famine on ninny occasions, just as it served as a staple food during the War of the Re olutlon and during the Civil War, King Corn has agnln come to the front in the nation's battle with autocracy. Corn meal is finding greatly Increas-. ed use in .the making of ordinary white bread. . Hundreds of housewives and many of the Inrger halters are mixing 20 per cent, corn meal with wheat (tour to make leavened bread. This kind of a mixture is worked and baked in the same recipes and with the same, methods that apply to straight wheat bread. , Corn bread using corn uieul entire ly is gaining a greater, popularity than ever before. Housewives are coming to realize that every pound of wheat saved in America means a pound of wheat released for shipment to the nations- with 'which America Is associ ated in the war. There are a score of corn products that today possess unusual Importance for Americans. Corn syrup for sweet ening corn cakes and buckwheat cakes and for use in the kitchen Instead of granulated sugar Is one of the leading ' products mndo from corn. ; Corn oil, excellent for frying and for I every other purpose lilled by salad oils. ! Is appearing on the market In large quantities. It comes from the germ of the corn. MADE-IN-GERMANY LIES CIRCULATED IN CANADA Special free Offer $1.45 VALUE FOR $1.10 3-lb.

The stories bothering Canada ure of the same general character as those the United States food administra tor recently denounced In this coun try, such as the ridiculous salt and blueing famine fnkes and the report that the government would seize housewives' stocks ef home canned j goods.. The Canadian food controller esti mates that when the people listen I) and pass on such stories, ench one has the power of destruction that lies In a battalion of soldiers. "Stories without even a vestige of foundation have been scattered broad cast," said the Cnmidlsin statement "Nor have they come to life casually. They have started simultaneously In different parts of the country and In each instance have been calculated to arouse public Indignation. I "They are Insidious, subtle, persist ! ent Bit by bit they dissipate public I trust, the great essential In the work of food control. "It lies with every Individual to for bear from criticism ; to ftifraln from passing on the vagrant and harmful story, and thus the more effectively to co-operate In work which is going to mean more than the majority of people yet realize." THE UNITED STATES FOOD ADMINISTRATION SAY8: There is no royal road to food conservation, We can only ac complish this by the voluntary action of our whole people, each element In proportion to Its means. It Is a matter of equality of bur den; a matter of minute saving and substitution at every point In th 20,000,000 kitchens, on the 20, 000,000 dinner tables, and In ths 2,000,000 manufacturing, whols- sals and retail establishments of ths country.
