Use More Cottage Cheese
ONE of the many good results of
food conservation is the bring
ing into prominence of whole
some,' but. little used, foods. Every
one has known of cottage cheese for
many a long year and some of us
have used it in one or -two fashions,
but its use. as a conservation food is
teaching us new ways of serving it.
Its particular value in these conserva
tion days is that it is a skim-milk
product, thus making available for
human food large quantities of food,
material that might otherwise not be
used as human food.
food Value of Cottage Cheese
Cottage cheese belongs in that
rather short list of foods whose chief
purpose in the diet is to build up the
body tissue. That list includes meat,
fish, eggs, milk, nuts and dried peas
and beans. The chart below shows
how cottasre cheese compares with
some of these:

The above table shows that consid'

food in the list that surpasses it
American cheese, cost nearly double
and does not give double the number

To Buy Or to Make Cottage Cheese.
The answer to this question de
pends, upon the location in which one
lives. It surely pays to make cot
tage cheese if one has an available
supply of skim milk; but it does not
pay in money to make the article if
the housewife must buy her milk. A
gallon of milk makes just about one
pound of ' cottage cheese and skim
milk is ,15 or 20 cents per gallon re
tail. .Cottage cheese costs from 12
cents to..25 cents per pound depend
ing op the place where purchased and
people.-feel that the home-made va
riety is enough superior to pay for
the ..extra " expenditure.
-To Make Cottage Cheese.
To" -make- successful cottage cheese,
only, two things must be considered.
The milk,, which has soured until it
set,- must be heated just till luke
warm, as high heat toughens the re
sulting -cheese; and the heated curd
should drain ' for several hours. If
the -whey-is drained out by the use
of pressure some of the curd is lost.

Advice to the Lovelorn
By BEATRICE
A Trained Nurse.
Miss Fairfax. Omaha Bee: My Dear Miss
Fairfax: Tour great ability in answering
questions as shown in The Omaha Bee,
has prompted me to seek your aid.
I am 19 and am desirous or becoming a
nurse. I am talking against strong opposi
tion, however, as both my father and mother
are unwilling for me to enter training. I
have always wanted to be a nurse, and feel
sure that It Is no passing fancy.
Another matter that has perplexed me
Is this, I have corresponded with an Italian
boy for several months, and he writes nice,
friendly letters. I have never met him and
he got my name through the Hel Cross
work. It was printed onto a sweater. He
is or Imagines himself to be In love with
me, but says he will never ask me to marry
him until we have met. He Is 22 and seems
to be a perfect gentleman. Is It possible
for a fellow to fall In love with a girl by
seeing only her picture. His pictures In
dicate good looks and manly appearance,
and I admire htm very much. What course
should I pursue?
Shall anxiously await your reply In the
paper.
Expressing my tnanns in advance, j am
- "TKOUBLES."
One must have excellent health to endure
long hours and great nervous strain to be
come st successful nurse. Probably you par
ents feel that you are not strong enough
physically for this work. That the need Is
the greatest It has ever been, goes without
saying.
No, I don't think It possible for a man
to fall In love with a girl on paper. I should
wait until I had seen him and become ac
quainted at close range before I formed any
lasting opinion.
Birthday Present.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: Will you
kindly advise me in The Dally Bee what
to give as a birthday present to a young
man 21 years of age, to whom I am en
gaged. He Is leaving soon In the draft.
Also, Miss Fairfax, do you think after
marriage he would notice a difference, as
bis folks are very different from mine,
living a little higher, serving fancy dinners
etc., while my folks are very moderate and
old-fashioned at meals, etc. What la the
correct way to hold the knife and fork. I
am very nervous when eating away from
home and wish to overcome It by knowing
table etiquette. THANK TOU.
A wrist watch would be the mest appro
priate gift If the young man Is to enter
the service.
The little niceties of life are very Im
portant, for we are Judged often by our
manners. Tour fiance is a man of very
little character if he draws unfavorable
comparisons between your parents and his,
and I would not let this matter worry me
at all.
Thefork should be held In the left hand,
and the knife In the right. Try to forget
yourself when you are out and yon will
find that your nervousness has vanished.
Home For a Girl.
Beatrice Fairfax, Omaha Bee: Dear Miss
Fairfax: Can you please help us or Instruct
us how to find a nice, reliable girl from
13 to 15 years of age, who would like a
home with a young married couple who
have no children? We prefer a girl music

it is the easiest possible sauce to

Drink.
Dear Miss Fairfax: I am a widower, with
out children, age 35, and engaged to a
lady of 27. Now what troubles me is that I
had made appolntmente with her on two
occasions and each time She was not only
late but was under the influence of liquor.
L. T.
Drunkenness Is a tragic thing and never'
more horrible than when It has a woman for
Its victim. Tou have no right to give your
children a mother who will yield to the mad
ness of drink. Tou have equaly no right to
throw over the woman you love because of
her weakness. Try to help her cure her
self make every effort to aid her In con
quering this bad habit. But If she Is too
Indifferent or too weak to try to overcome
her ugly falling then you must put her
out of your life. But be patlept and gener
ous, helpful and kind that is your part.

bined in the war work contribution of
a New York woman, well known to
Omahans. She is Mrs. W. W. Drey
foos, sister-in-law of Mrs. Al Drey
foos, in whose fertile brain 'was con
ceived the idea of using cast-off
woman's stockings that still have
good tops to make undershirts for
French and Belgian babies.
Mrs. Dreyfoos' idea is illustrated by
the accompanying cut. The top edge
of the stocking forms the bottom of
the 6hirt. The tops are cut open down
the back, laid together and cut out to
the pattern of a baby's shirt; then the
. armliojes and neck are finished with
crocheting. j
Mrs. Dreyfoos erNisted a number of
her friends in Mount Vernon, where
she lives, to carry on the work. A
sister in Cincinnati also sponsored
the work m her city, from which two
centers many other units have been
organized.

Volunteer Plan
For Entertaining
American Soldiers
A plan for entertaining the sol
die'rs in camps and hospitals through
out the land has been suggested by
the work of the volunteer corps of
patriotic women who are always at
the service of the committee on spe
cial entertainment of the District
War Camp Community Service of
Washington, D. C.
These women represent every sort
of training and talent, from the pro
fessionals who generously offer their
services to the department clerk, who
goes without her dinner in order to
reach camp in time to sing her song.
Robert W. Bell, chairman of the
committee, books 10 entertainments
a week at the centers where soldiers
and sailors are in training, and he de
pends largely upon these women vol
unteers for his programs. The wo
men are taken to the camps in mo
tors provided by the volunteer motor
corps, composed' of residents of
Washington.

Hook-Worm Club
To Give. June Dance
By MELLIFICIA.
You probably do not know that the
hook worm is doing fos deadly work
in our midst. Hook worms are al
ways associated with tropical suns and
waving palms-but, even here in the
bustling, busy west, we find some of
our citizens suffering from the bite
of this insect which spreads ennui
and drovvnsiness in its wake
The sad part of it all ii that it
seems to aiTcct the young, and in the
Central High school arc five young
men who are so completely under the
spell that they have dubbed them
selves "The Hook Worm club.-' Their
books do not seem to have a very
strong appeal and it is with some dif
ficulty, so they concede, that they
have reached the goal marked by a
gold-sealed diploma.
But to show you that these young
chaps are not insensible to the strains
of a jazz band, we must tell you that
they are planning a delightful little
dance to be given Tune 4 at the Fret
tiest Mile club. The most attractive
girls in the school will be invited,
and, with the pretty ball room at
the club as a setting for the rainbow
gowned girls, it promises to be i
very pretty party.

of this illustrious club, will be: Bur
