A FEW SUGGESTIONS

Con the women of Rensselaer and Jasper county measure up, even a little more, to their responsibility in food conservation as a war measure? Wo are told that women control 8$ per cent of all the money of the United States and certainly it is true that in the matter of foods, almost every woman is a distributor. Appalling is this responsibility! We have promised food to the allies as well as our own boys and the supply is short and growing shorter. Will we respect this promise? The situation is most serious; grave; it becomes necessary for us, as thinking women, to carefully consider and' hear each call that is made to us, on this most important question; saving the food. Many demands have been made and will be made upon our nation and we must patiently, intelligently and conscientiously respond. Let us do it willingly, gladly, knowing that the combined effort of all the American people will mdans victory. Mr. Hoover said: “I cannot command you to save food, I can only request, leaving it to your conscience to obey.” Instructors sent out from Washington appeal to us to make the food question an individual one. To save, not that we may hoard, but that certain foods may be released which can be transported. And the women and children of France are hungry.

Can we manage our daily menus with a little more thrift, a little more skill? It is a question of brains as well as heart; it is our task; and there is no limit to the ability of an American woman —a patriot. Let us think intently about this. So much depends on our allies having food; they rely upon us and we have passed our word. We are not asked to make our diet one bit less nourishing, simply to change our methods of cooking a trifle to meet this war measure. Our food directors have requested us to serve only the customary three meals a day, exceptions to this rule being families where there are growing children, invalids and the aged. They ask us to eliminate all other “between meals” serving, to which we have long been accustomed, not only to save the food, but as a health measure as well. Perhaps one hundred and fifty women in Rensselaer alone are members of some organization which has dispensed good cheer and hospitality by the serving of light refreshments.

Our nation being in war, these women have counted the cost in food, time, strength and money and as might be expected of Jasper county have responded almost to a woman in observing the food conservation measures. The result is most gratifying: 1. Our churches have had very few, if any, dinners this winter. 2. Our schools have abandoned all serving at their various functions. 3. Refreshments at social gatherings are very light, when served at aD. 4. The Daughters of American Revolution do not serve. 5. The original Sew club ceased serving very soon after the United States entered the war. 6. Most of the lodges serve no food.

7. Many other organizations are loyally falling into line and abandoning refreshments. 8. Ladies’ Aids, composed of country women, serving at sales are adhering strictly to the requests of Mr. Hoover. The attitude of our women proclaim them to be patriots and their steady efforts are resulting in quantities of food saved. Yet, with all this, more is required of us. We must keep faith with our boys and the allies. Can we not, each one, discover new ways of thrift and more of them; exchange our knowledge, and be so united in this stupendous task that the result can be only the one thing—success? CONTRIBUTED.

rMs. Donald Beam and Madeline Warren went to Chicago Friday afternoon. Cecil Potts who is now in the navy and is located at the Great Lakes Naval station, was here Friday for a visit with his mother, Mrs. John Potts.

WOMEN TO BE AN IMPORTANT FACTOR

The organization now information weparatory to making the Third liberty loan drive, recognizing the iplendid service women are .able to render are planning on giving them a very prominent part in this campaign. That the women of Jasper county will respond to this call there can be no doubt. Under the enthusiastic and efficient leadership of Mrs. Ora T. Ross, Jasper county has taken a very prominent place in the women’s war activities of the state. She has been a very prominent factor in many of the women’s state meetings and has prefected an organization here that is doing a most splendid service. With the hearty co-oper-ation and assistance of many of the women of this community a vast amount of Red Cross material has been prepared and sent forward to be used by that great organization in the most beautiful service ever rendered by “angels of mercy.” Mrs. Ross is also a member of the county council of defense having been appointed by Judge Charles W. Hanley with six others to carry on the work of that organization in this county. At her request $75.00 were set aside by the defense council to be used out of the appropriation made by the county council, to buy yarn with which to knit sox for our soldiers in the service. The purpose of getting this yarn was to knit sox and send them direct to the boys from this county, who might be in need of them. All of the sox knit out of the yarn furnished by the Red Cross have to be sent to the Red Cross headquarters and are sent to the soldiers from there. Yarn has become very expensive and being anxious to make the $75 go as far as possible Mrs. Ross has been slow in placing the order. At the meeting of the council last Wednesday in her report she informed that body that she had at last been able to secure the yarn at $2.75, which is considered a very low price. The yarn was purchased by the “Women’s Patriotic League of New York.” James Lefler went to Hammond this morning.

Terrible Terry McGovern, that little two fisted Irish fighter, took the final count in Brooklyn, N. Y., Friday, from the Great Umpire. McGovern first gained prominence in the padded area in Brooklyn and his rise to the top was swift, and be became champion of the lightweights at an early age, ultimately being dethroned by Young Corbett, a Denver, Colorado third rater at the time. McGovern was noted for his rushing tactics and he never turned down a fight to a title aspirant. He was thirty-seven years of age at the time of his death.

About Constipation.

Certain articles of diet tend to check movements of the bowels. The most commmon of these are cheese, tea and boiled milk. On the other hand raw fruits, especially apples and bananas, also graham bread and whole wheat bread promote a, movement of the bowels. When the bowels are badly constipated, however, the sure way is to take one or two of Chamberlain’s Tablets immediately after supper. C

The local dealers for the Ford motor company have had a telegram from that company advising that owing to the increased cost of material, they were forced to raise the price of the touring car, runabout and chassis. This increase while it has been predicted for some time did not come until all material purchased by the Ford company had been utilized. The company is the last of the automobile manufacturers to raise their price. This is in keeping with the policy of Mr. Ford. The Ford Motor company at the present time are devoting fifty per cent of their capacity to government work and are' cutting their production of utility cars to do so.

Chamberlain's Tablets.

These Tablets are intended especially for disorders of the stomach, liver and bowels. If you are troubled with heartburn, indigestion or constipation they will do you good. C
