More than a billion pounds of meat n year and an equal amount of puro wheat flour are required for the Amer ican army hilt of fare. That Impos ing total will Increase rapidly as tho United States enlarges Its lighting forces In France and thu divisions In training on this side of the Atlantic. Uncle Sam does not stint the quality or quantity of food for his husky fight ing men. There is a bountiful supply of every essential foodstuff on a care fully balanced menu that provides more calories than the rations of any otftier army In the world. Twenty-1 seven standard articles figure In the | Dst from which mess sergeants select j material for the dally meals. They | are beef, bacon, flour, baking powder, I benns, rice, potatoes, onions, tomatoes, prunes, Jams, apples, peaches, coffee, tea, sugar, milk, vinegar, pickles, salt, pepper, cl mm mou. lard and lard sub stitutes, butter and oleomargarine, Kirup and flavoring extracts. Even with this elaborate selection, and not withstanding the mounting cost of food, the government finds lt possible to give the boys In khaki all they can eat for the modest sum of 41 and a fraction cents n day. The soldiers get many articles of food, however, that ase not included in the "standard" Hst. Supply sergeants aro Instructed to vary tho diet by purchasing eggs, chickens, green vegetables and fresh .fineta. This pinn is followed in Ifrnnco ns well as In the United Stntcs. Under favorable circumstances poultry and fresh vegetables and fruit aro served In the front-line trenches.

Tho in-j creases, it was announced, are due to increases in wages, ts nd will become effective January 1st next. Tho new order will raise about $24,000,000 additional revenue, half of which amount the American Rail way Express Company, before it was taken over entirely by tho govern ment, had planned to expend in an increase of wages. The wage ques tion is now before the (railroad's administration board of wases and working conditions. "lt is expected," said an announce ment, "that the increased express rates will have the effect of transfer I rlug considerable of the short-haul business to motor trucks and back to tho freight service, where it really should be handled, lt is also antici pated that another result will be the I transferring of the handling of some of the smaller packages to the parcel post." The reason for making the rate in crease greater in the Eastern terri tory, il is stated, was because of thc shorter hauls,'city delivery and ter minal service. ^tBy lveryTest ' CAUGHT SPIRIT OF OCCASION Colored Porter Meant That Eagle Should Shine In Celebration of American Victory.

Va., the new bishop elected at tho General Conference in Atlanta last May, presiding.

The sessions will be held in St. Faul's Method t church tn Orange burg, of which church Rev. W. A. Massabeau is pastor, and will In clude open meetings each day and j evening. One evening will be devoted to an , anniversary meeting of the Sunday school board, another to an miniver- ? sary meeting of the church extension j board, and another to the an n i ver- . sary meeting of the board of mis- j sions. On Sunday Bishop Darlington will I preach and ordain elders and deacons . of the church. On tho evening before the confer- ' once opens (Tuesday, December :<.)

Senators say that countries desir ing to import American cotton have have Indicated a readiness to supply the tonnage necessary for its move ment overseas, and now~ that the restrictions as to shipment to most countries have been removed they ex pect the movement to increase very rapidly.
