EVERY DAY IS WOMAN'S DAY There is a day set aside as "Mothers day” in this country but now every day is Mother's Day says the bulletin sent out by the National Emergency Food and Garden Commission of Washington, which is co-operating the newspaper is an endeavor to increase the number of food gardens In this country. A woman does not have to wear a nurse's uniform to serve her country, the bulletin today continues, for she can do just as great service right in her home. Remember if an ounce of edible food is thrown away in each of the twenty million homes hi this laud that means a waste of one million three hundred pounds. The figures are staggering. It takes the labor of many to reproduce this waste. To offset this the mother nr housewife should plan balanced and economical menu. Everything must be utilized. Nothing nutritious sh'ould be thrown away. Women of England have turned nobly to the tasks put them since that country has been at war. According to Major Spender ('lay. who is in this country with the British War Commission, the women of England are winning the war. He says he knows young women who have never as much as braided their own hair, having been reared amid wealth, and refinement, who are now cooks in concentration camps, others who are dispensing rations to the soldiers in training at home, with economic accuracy demanded by the government. SO .the, women of this country can help the United States and for that reason the National Food and G: rden Commission directs attention today to the terrible loss by waste. There need be no hysteria, no scrimping bat just sane judicious economy whf-reby much can be saved and no one the loser in the way of not having enough to eat.
