Scant War Talk in South America.
Not long ago we heard a yoman
express the wish that she might go
to some far distant land or desert
island where she would hear nothing
bout the war. We would recommend
South America. Mrs. Bernard E.
Tombrink, who came home this week
after passing a year there, says that
one hears hardly a word about the
war in Buenos Aires. Now and then
there is some comment about the
high cost of living, but aside from
that the people go about their busi
ness just as usual, seemingly oblivious
to the fact that practically the whole
world is engaged in the conflict.
Mr. and Mrs. -Tombrink lived in a
small town 50 miles from the capital
city. It is an old Spanish town and
they were the only Americans there.
The houses are nearly all of the
Spanish type with all the rooms open
ing on the patio. The houses have
no heating plants and the few who
have fireplaces are considered very
fortanate. Although the winters are
not nearly as cold as ours, there is a
damp chill in the air that is very pen
etrating. The South Americans do
not seem to mind, however. They
eat in their furs and if the cold be
comes too extreme they go to bed to
keep warm.
A wonderful amusement park, much
like the White City in Chicago, called
the Japanese Garden, js an attraction
of Buenos Aires. The houses are all
of the Japanese type of architecture
and with the queer lanterns shedding
their soft light on the grounds, the
sunken gardens and artistic tea
houses it is quite like a bit of quaint
old Japan.
Buenos Aires is a great fashion and
social center. No business man would
think of working all afternoon; he
must stop and have his cup of tea.
Every evening finds a brilliant crowd
at the hotels and clubs, and luncheons
and card parties fill the days.1 Mr.
and Mrs. Tombrink often went up for
' the week-end, arriving on Saturday
evening in time for the dinner-dance
at one of the hotels. In the secluded
little village where they lived only
outdoor sports broke the monotony
of the days. '
Mrs. Tombrink is a sister of Miss
Mary Coll.

Society Girls Ask
Funds for Red Star
Animal Relief
A band of Red Star animal relief
workers invaded the South Side stock
yards this morning. They were un
der the command of four former Ak-Sar-Ben
queans and Everett Buck
ingham acted as guide. Among the
girls who appealed to the stock men
for aid in this drive were Misses Har
riet Smith, Hazel Updike, Marjorie
Howland, Helene Bixby, Janet and
Dorothy Hall, Ellen Creightoh, Grace
Allison and Helen Murphy.
"Help the horse to help U.S." is the
Red Star motto. On the western
front' alone, there are 5,000,000 mules
and horses. They travel through
shell-furrowed fields, wade through
lakes of mud, often under heavy fire,
right up to the front trenches.
The horse in the war rone is valu
able beyond computation. He is Cared
for by the Red Star in the same way
in which the Red Cross cares for
the welfare of soldiers.
To accomplish the relief work need
ed at the front the United States must
raise $250,000 at once. Lovers of
horses .everywhere in America , are
active in getting., this sum 'for the
benefit of army horses both for their
own sake and to help our soldiers
win the war, . : . .

Use Milk Wisely
.' As a means of setting right a mis
understanding among dairy farmers
and distributers of milk in certain
parts of the country, , who are appre
hensive that a story to this effect that
is in circulation witl injure their busi
ness, the United States food admin
istration announces that it has never
advised the public to decrease whole
milk consumption or attempt to sub
stitute other foods for milk. The 1918
home card, issued recently, says: "Use
milk wisely. Use" all the milk. Waste
no part of it. The children must have
whole milk. Use sour and skim milk
in cooking and for cottage cheese."
In addition to advising the judicious
use of whole milk without waste.hc
food administration urges" the wider
use of cheese, of which, there" is now
a plentiful supply, in this country, as
a substitute for meat.
