nothing the mat ter with the army rations they are adequate and usually of excellont qurllty but it is certain that they can be dressed up and garnished so that when they reach the men they are In a more appetising form And It la this work that tho women cooks are engaged on now They admit themselves ungrudgingly that they ha vo not effected nny wonderful economies In fact they go so far aa to say that any economies they have made would have resulted Just the seme under the reglmo of the men cooks What they do claim however la this that they servo better and more appetising meals from tho same rations and introduco a variety that pleases the men an Important point Hero Is another aspect of tha case: The male army cook le a migratory bird He no sooner goto to know hla bearings than ha Is spirited off to another unit These women cooks stay at the depots to which thoy are sent There Is a camp' on the coast where tho number catered for varies from 2000 to a few hundred They srq man passing through and are consequently very difficult to cater for Women have rale charge of the cooking arrangements here and are making a marked success of a hard task There 'la yet another argument In favor of the Idea For every woman coal: put Into a camp like this one more man Is allowed away to Join tho combatant force Bo popular has tho work become that tho sicretsry has a waking list Erch woman vtien she Joins a unit goes on oro probation This is best for boh parties A negligible few fall to outlast this period Where units have no women cooks ard thlngo THE MOUSE tired lad sat eating
