BONDS MAY BE EXCHANGED Buyers of First Bonds May Exchange Them for Those of This Issue. Three billions of the original $5,- 000,000,000 liberty loan authoriation will be included in the "$11,000,000,000 war budget." This issue will be made October IS, probably known as the "second liberty loan." Part of this issue, it was learned, may be used to replace the original $2,000,000,000 liberty loan if investors holding the original 3J4 per cent bonds wish to exchange them for the new "4s." Part will be used to take up the $2,000,000,000 worth of short term certificates authorized and is- sued at the time of the liberty loan. By this plan only $1,000,000,000 worth of new money will have to be raised at this time through bond sub- scription. Allies' Loan in Spring. The new $4,000,000,000 loan to the allies will not be made until spring. Secretary McAdoo has decided not to float this particular loan until Feb- ruary. The original authorization for the liberty loan was $5,000,000,000. At the time war was declared ,the bill provided, if further issues were made the first bonds would carry the same percentage as the second, McAdoo holds investors in the original issue are entitled to the change. Two Billions in Certificates. The $2,000,000,000 worth of short- time certificates have been handled ehiefty through the banks. Mr. Mc- Adoo has been issuing from $250,000,- |00 to $300,000,000 of these weekly, practically a billion dollars' worth has gone out. Every effort will be made to dispose of all these short- time notes by October 15. At that time the new bond issue will be avail- able and the short-time securities »ay be taken up by the bonds instead of cash. Secretary McAdoo will ask author- ization for issue of $2,000,000,000 worth of short-time securities for government needs. As many war sav- ings certificates will probably be asked. These latter plans are tenta- tive and may not be needed if the war revenue bill now pending in Congress is increased. fes te fei lsn Mr COLUMBIA SCHOOL WILL OPEN WILMETTE BRANCH Concerts and Recitals Are Planned for the Coming Season.

EVANSTON STRAND BILLS PLAY, "WITHIN THE LAW Photoplay Stopped in Chicago Will ;:; Appear at North Shore Theater. i! Bayard Veiller's wonderful drama, ^Within the Law," which has been Screened by Greater Vitagraph, and Is to be shown at the Evanston Strand theater next week, is an un- answerable argument against the small salaries paid to department store girls in many of the4arge cities Jjbroughout the country, ||This picture was riot allowed to Snow in the theaters of Chicago by the city's board of censors. This announcement by the Strand man- agement gives the "movie fans" their second opportunity to see .apkture in Evanston that the Chicago cen- ters have refused to permit at the city's theaters. ».«:>-:-: :S-" pit * * * * W" *t^' :.&.: ■y^ ■Msswssfci.rti.., Weeks. -'^*ft#' ' J; There is to be a meatless week in Saxony in September and another in October^..* ':.r.J-'- -msmmmm^mmm-s Full Garbage Pails in America Means Empty Dinner Pails for Many Workers By Herbert Hoover, V. S. Food Administrator Save the Wheat.--One wheatless meal a day. Use corn, oatmeal, rye or barley bread and non-wheat breakfast foods. Order bread twenty- four hours in advance so your baker will not bake beyond his needs. Cut the loaf on the table and only as re- quired. Use stale bread for cooking, toast, etc. Eat less cake and pastry. Our wheat harvest is far below nor- mal. If each person weekly saves Herbert Hoover. one pound of wheat flour that means 150,000,000 more bushels of wheat for the allies to mix in their bread. This will help to save democracy. Save the Meat.--Beef, mutton or pork not more than once daily. Use freely vegetables and fish. At the meat meal serve smaller portions, and stews instead of steaks. Make made-dishes of all left-overs. Do this and there will be meat enough for every one at a reasonable price. We are today killing the dairy cows and female calves as the result of high price. Therefore, eat less and eat no young meat. If we save an ounce of meat each day per person, we will have additional supply equal to 2,200,000 cattle. Save the Milk.--The children must have milk. Use every drop. Use buttermilk and sour mil kfor cook- ing*and making cottage cheese. Use less cream. Save the Fats.--We are the world's greatest fat wasters. Fat is food. Butter is essential for the growth and health of children. Use butter on the table as usual, but not in cooking. Other fats are as good. Reduce use of fried foods. Save daily one-third ounce animal fats. Soap contains fats. Do not waste it. Make your own washing soap at home out of the saved fats. Use one-third ounce less per day of animal fat and 375,000 tons will be saved yearly. Save the Sugar.--Sugar is scarcer. We use today three times as much per person as our allies. So there may be enough for all at reasonable price use less candy and sweet drinks. Do not stint sugar in putting up fruit and jams. They will save butter. If every one in America saves one ounce of sugar daily, it means 1,100,- 000 tons for the year. Save the Fuel.--Coal comes from a distance and our railways are over*- burdened hauling war material. Help relieve them by burning fewer fires. Use wood when you can get it. Use the Perishable Foods.--Fruits and" vegetables we have in abund- ance. As a nation we eat too little green stuffs. Double their use and improve your health. Store potatoes and other roots properly and they will keep. Begin now to can or dry all surplus garden products. Use Local Supplies--Patronize your local producer. Distance means money. Buy perishable food from the neighborhood nearest you and thus save transportation. Watch out for the wastes in the community. Full garbage pails in America mean empty dinner pails in America and Europe. If the more fortunate of our people will avoid waste and eat no more than they need, the high cost of liv- ing problem of the less fortunate will be solved. FRANCIS KING COOKE HAS OPENED BOYS' SCHOOL North Shore People Will Have Ad- vantage of New Winnetka School. Several times during recent years there has been considerable discus- sion respecting the establishment of a boys* school on the north shore at some convenient point between Evanston and Lake Forest. The de- mand for such a school to prepare boys for college, as well as for younger boys, is strongly favored at this time. Quite recently the sub- ject was revised by a group of par- ents and, after serious consideration, the movement thus initiated has re- sulted in the formation of a school under the following provisions: A--Eliot Elementary Schools. A school for boys and girls of grammar school ages, conducted under the %ame lines as the Girton lower school, of which it will be the successor. This school will be housed in the present building, and the existing or- ganization maintained, excepting that there will be men as well as women teachers. B--Eliot School. A school for boys of high school age, providing at the start a two years' course, and ulti- mately a three or four years' course as development may warrant. This school will be housed in a separate building now available for the pur- pose, and will be supervised by men teachers. Frances King Cooke of Winnetka will have charge of the school, and information in regards to the regis- tration of the boys may be obtained at her offices in Girton school. ^^1 r^^l ^^i ^^B WB Leaves for Alaska.

Rigid precautions have been taken to safeguard the health of America's young manhood drafted in the first call for the new national army. United State.* medical officers, rein- forced by the ablest men in the coun- try in the medical profession, are personally surpervising the sanitary improvements at each encampment. Inspectors of high rank, under spe- cial orders of the surgeon general, already at the various camp*-, are making these sites safe against dis- ease. The medical officers now in charge of this work are to become the sanitary inspectors of the camps when the troops arrive. Medical in- spectors so designated will have the closest co-operation with local health authorities and with the officers of the public health service. Each will have a corps of assistants. The# sanitary organization at each encampment will be as complete as possible. The organization will con- sist of divisional surgeons, who will be the sanitary advisers to the com- manding general; a divisional sani- tary inspector and regular surgeons who are sanitary officers of their regiments. The sanitary officers are to assist the divisional surgeons along special lines. In emergency cases that may arise sanitary squads are to be organized. These will comprise officers and men of specific prac- tical training in the purification of water supply, disposal of waste, dis- infection and the handling of out- breaks of communicable diseases.

They need books and current maga- zines for study, recreation and di- version in lonely moments. You can help them by donating books and magazines to be forwarded to army camps and hospitals. Books on war, travel, history, biog- raphy, as well as short stories, are desired by the local committee. Any readable book of general interest will appeal to the soldiers. Wilmette people wishing to help in this work may send books and maga- zines to the public library. GARBAGE REPORTS SHOW FOODSTUFFS ARE SAVED Practical Results Are Announced By Food Administrator.
