I SUGARLESS COFFEE ! Chattanooga Times. j A statistician in the food admin- J istrator's department has just iig- ured it out by means of a table of estimates made up from an investi gation of a certain number of aver age families that in every family of five in the United States one pound of sugar a week is used in coll'ee and tea, which means that 20,000.000 pounds of sugar are used weekly in sweetening these two beverages. That means a billion or more pounds of sugar wasted as some think, for cottee and tea are just as palatable and really more wholesome without sugar which has suggested to the food conservationists, that we take our tea and coffee during the war, at least, without sweetening; or if we have to have it, use sorghum as the Southern people did during the Civil war. The Nebraska jState Journal, which appears to have been making some investigations on its own account, declares that many persons within its observation, after trying the sugarless cup of coffee or tea come to like it better that way, finding that, as a matter of fact, both lose their delicate flavor bu the use of sugar. "On the whole, says the Nebraska State Journal, "there are few articles whose con sumption can more easily be reduc ed than sugar. VShat, with the syr ups, the sweet fruits and the honey age American sonsumption of cane and beet sugar could prolibly be cut in half without discomfort or ill effect." - Theste figuires an.d suggestions come opportunely, since we are told that the scarcity of sugar is like ly to become acute unless there is ia more general practice of econ omy in its use. The wise thing to do is to begin "tapering off' in the use of sugar, reducing the supply each day; if then it should turn out that we have been simply cul tivating a habit that may be easily and safely cured, we can easily re duce our sugar bills and at the same time perform a patriotic act by helping the government. CITY GARAGE BUSY Messrs. C. .F. Harris and A. M. Robinette, the new proprietors of the City Garage, already are doing a good bushi-'ss and by spring they expect to have their establishment remodeled and improved generally.

By the Associated Press. Paris, Dec. 8. The 152nd line regiment, itself the first to receive the "fourragero" both in the colors of the war-cross and of the military medal, has just conferred a military medar "fourragero" upon Cardinal Lucon, archbishop of Rheims, in recognition of his bravery in never quitting his post in his much bombed city. In order to make the cardinal archbishop eligible for this distinc tion, the regiment first appointed him honorary chaplin to the regiment and later when the prelate was din ing with the regiment's, mess the colonel presented the insignia say ing "Soldiers on campaign have nothing to offer:" we should like however to give you a souvenir of your visit to the "Fifteen-two" so offer what we value most the "fourragero" of the regiment. The "fourragero" which the car dinal will henceforth wear on cero monious occasions is a plaited cord worn round the shoulder like the aig uillettos worn by American nav,al officers in full dress. The first fourragero was made by strand of 'he same color as the war cross and was awarded to all men of any unit hich had been cited twice in the army order. When some units had won five citations a new fourragero was granted made in the colors of the military medal. But even this was found not to be sufficient, and when the famous fforteign le gion had won six citations, a third fourragero. woven in red, the color -f the legion of honor, was insti tuted for units that" exceed five citations. WiAR MAKES MORE PLA?Y FOR CHILDREN NECESSAHY On account of the nervous strain and feeling of anxiety that children are especially likely to suffer be cause of the war, with its stories of ruthlessness and horror, Miss Julia C. Lapthrop, chief of the children's bureau at Washington, ad vises more play and wholesome rec reation for children, particularly for school children. In advising more playgrounds, clubs, and various recreational centers, she points out the demoralization that has come to the boys and girls of England on account of breaking down these con ditions, with the result that chaos prevails in play activities since the war. She says: "This is a good time to remind ourselves that the continuance and development of all types of innocent and healthful recreation in every community offer a call to patriot ic service for many who cannot go to the front. The strain and anx iety which are certain to grow in this country for an indefinite period abhead of us need to be counterbal anced by greater community effort to provide for wholesome play." "This appeal," says the state board of health, "reminds us of the number of schools in North Car- olina without safe and sufficient playgrounds. Many schools, it is true, have a cleared space in front of the door or to the side which they call a play ground, but when it comes to every child in school tak ing some part in a game or play, which is necessary for both the phy sical and mental development of the child, and this every day, neither the space nor the facilities are there. Dr. Wbods Hutchinson re gards play of such importance in the health and educational life of a child that he says: 'Rather a play ground without a school than a school without a playground.' "A playground for every school and play space for every child ev ery school day in the year in North Carolina is not only a timely war measure but a physical and a men tal emergency measure."

S3 II ti a SJ B (PRINTED IN THE DESIRE TO SERVE WOMEN) a o YYHEN a man wants to be "dead sjlcz g of the right thing for a woman's Christmas gift, he goes to a woman's store; there he sees what women buy for tnemselves, and gets the expert advice of other women. The rule works both wa3s, and the re sourceful woman seeks out a man s store and the advice of other men. This is a store for men; it sells the things a man enjoys owning: the things he gets for himself. And it's a place for both men and women to buy gifts for men. Our stock is generous and varied: Hart Schaffner and Marx suits and ovtrcoats, of course; shirts, hat, a new array of ties, suit cases, bags and toil ,:t sets, sundry bags and leather goods. There are many others, some that you will think of at once, others you'll appreciate having called to your attention. That is where we can be of sevice to you; we can share the advantage of our acquaintance with men We'll be glad to do it.
