Also it means that women have awakened at last to their citizenship responsibilities. Friends of the
federation have often felt it lagged behind and was too conservative for its own good. The federation was founded back in the days when women were supposed to deal only with subjects of sweetness and light. The ‘power behind the throne” idea dominated feminine thinking. @ Women, we said, could influence men best by the cooing dove method. “It took gentleness and tact and sometimes down right deceit to control the restive and unprincipled politician. We really believed that papa would change his votz if the little woman made him some beaten biscuits and coazizd sweetly for it. That didn’t work; as we now see. :

business and professional groups got together—and this time it looks as if they've begun to amalgamate. In union there is strength and that goes for feminine as well as masculine objectives. The “divide and conquer” theory has been shown up to us in all its dangerous phases—what simpletons we'd be to miss the implications for us. War upsets traditions and tramples prejudices underfoot, Now that women have become a part of | the army of the United States, who | wants to argue the equality question? No matter what you say now it won't make any more sense in a few -years than the bygone quarrel over a girl's right to wear bloomers.
Food Supply Is War Weapon
' Careful handling of food in the kitchen is as necessary as buying extra war bonds, for food is a weapon. It's the main source of our superiority over axis nations. We're feeding a large army and navy, helping feed our allies and people of axis-freed countries. In this country 30,000,000 are trying to buy more food with their larger defense-plant incomes. However, civilian demands can’t always be filled. That’s why rationing was instituted . . . that everyone will get a fair share of what he needs.

Substitutes Found | For Olive Oil
The shortage in olive oil due to war conditions has been reduced to a minor problem. Milkweed oil, chemically similar to soybean oil, can be made edible. One hundred pounds of weeds yield 21 pounds of oil. A process for extracting oil from grape-seeds has been developed by a Celifornia professor. Salad oil is made from flax-seeds also; in fact farmers grow- flax chiefly for its seed, not for fiber as it is generally believed.

A preferred income bracket is no guarantee ~of proper diet in American homes. A deficiency of essential food values is widespread, even on the “right side of the tracks,” writes H. A, Callis in the Journal of the American Medical association.
