NEW GOVERNMENT MAKES
- ODESSA DRY.
ODESSA, Russia—Odessa is dry for
the first time In its history The
consumption of spirltous 1'iqucrs has
been technically forbidden s'ceo tl e
only days of the war, hut police en
forcement of the ordinance was lav,
and the traffic was never completely

ary regime took control of the city.

enri.'led in the army, wlr!e their
j luces won taken by local cons ubles
enlisted from the veterans soLViers
indents and citizens. This constab
ulary displayed the most commenda
ble ei orgy in the first days of their
new office In ferreting out and seal
ing up all stocks of liquors, anil ever
Since their crusade Odessa lias en
|eyed the results of enforced sobriety.
PAYS TRIBUTE TO WOMEN.
LONDON—The head of a big Glas
gow shipbuilding firm speaking at the
opening of the exhibition of women’s
war work here this week, paid a warm
tribute to the excellent results ob
tained in h'is business from “dilution"
with Salmon labor.
“Given two more years of war,” he
said “1 would undertake to build a
battleship from keel to aerial in all
its complex detail entirely with wo
| man labor.
"The Idea Is neither fantastic nor
visionary. The woman who has tra'ined
for a trapeze can find her vocation
at the giddy heights of a Scotch
crane ,and the girl who is proficient
at dancing is W'ell equipped for un
ertaking wor klnvolving movement of
position.
"There are some operations in the
smiths and press shops In which the
aptitude of women for correct appre
ciation of time intervals shows to
great advantage. In the training
of women the results obtained from
their labor and the shortness of time
in which they arrive at proficiency
have exceeded all expectation.”
ROYAL FAMILY SETS GOOD EX
AMPLE
LONDON—The British royal family
con fin ues to set a good example to
their subjects in war time economy.
The latest restrictions to be adopted
are five potatoless days and one
meatless day each week. It is now
more than two years since the king
and queen banished alcoholic drinks
from the table. All members of the
royal family of the royal household,
and the royal servants have the same
rules in force. None of the royal
guests is supplied with alcohol.
War or standard bread is eaten by
the king and queen and, to prevent,
waste no toast hs now placed on the
royal table. A good deal of por
ridge is eaten and herrings are In
cluded in the dishes for tbe royal
household.
Princess Mary has taken up a plot
j of ground 'in the Windsor Castle
| gardens where tfie royal family is now
, living, which she is personally digging
i and preparing for potatoes.
