Re^ Croaa Notea
(From  Red  Cross  Cittee,  Preeport^
The regular monthly meeting of Freeport Branch, Nassau CDunty Chapter, American Red Cross, will be held Tuesday aftemoon at the Free port Club, at 3 o'c'ock. A large at¬ tendance is urged. MHU every womar who came to the last meeting brin? aa many members as she ean. There should be eome one present at each meeting from every house displaying the Red Cross banner.
The workers at the rooms continue to be many, but still not enough. And about the making of surgical dress¬ ings. Thera seems to be a misunder- stonding. You do not necessarily have to be a member df the surgical dressings class or to have taken that courae in order to work on the drass- ings at the rooms. All work may be token home except the gauze work.
Work will be given out only on Tuesday mornings, Thoraday after¬ noons and Friday afternoons.
Somo one left a silver thimble in the work room. Owner will find it by telephoning to Mra. Swazey.

Tune, Yankee Doodle Dandy X: Grandfather:
Thcy said I was too o!d for war. Bat one thing I can heed, sir, I'm not too old to go without. The meat onr soldiera need, sir.
Chorus: Yankee Doodle keep it up, Yankee Doodle Dandy. Cut out the wheat, the meat, tha fat The sugar and the candy.
Grandson: I know I am too young to go But folks can't make rae hush, sir When I wont eat our soldiera' w)>«at And yell for com meal mush, sir.-
All those who attended the ratfOlar meeting of the Freeport Hotkars' Club at the Grove Street School on Wednesday, February 13, were well repaid and had a most profltoble as well as enjoyable afternoon.
Miss Wicks showed through the dishes prepared by her caoking class ::hat n^eat substitute foods are no makeshift, but well worth considera¬ tion.
'ihe bean loaf, the nut loaf, the cheese roast, the chee:e aonflle and bean muffins were all there. Miss Wicks explained the value of the var¬ ious substitutes; there is as much ac¬ tual nourishment in twenty peanuts as in a lamb chop, an equal amount in a pieca of cheese one cubic inch, or % cap of cottoge cheese as in one quarter of a pound of steak.
One cup of baked beans is the equal to either a chop or piece of steak. Can we not all toke these truths to our hearts; this is the les¬ son for the home keeper. Get behind Uncle Sam. Your family need tipt go hungry. There is plenty for all of us to eat, but choose wisely. We wo- n^en ofton cannot sew outside of our homes. Some of ns cannot even knit, but here is something we all can do.
Miss Wicks will be glad to fumish recipes to those interested esough to ask for them.
