COl'LD you cat half a pound of rawbutter or relish a couple of tallowcandles? Hardly! That is why you pity the Arctic explorers who, you have read, DO NOT W ASTE often do these THE EATS very things. Rut they do not ent raw- butter and candies because they like the taste. They need these raw fats to supply their bodies with heat and energy. We could not live without fats, yet we have been great wasters of them. If this waste goes rn we mav see the prices of all fats. fr.m butter and lard to grease drippings, soar to the prices of luxuries. Our allies can barely get enough fats to keep them going. Butter is very hard to g' t in Europe because the feed for dairy herds is so scarce. Last year we had to ship to our allies three times as much butter as we lid before the war. As the war gies on we must ship them more and more, 1 Therefore, guard the fat supply , in your home. Do rot cook with butter, but do not deprive the children of butter on their bread. Dairy butter .has food value vital to children. Sine the grease drippings from the roasting pans. When you buy meats, don't let the butcher trim off the fat. Do it yourself when you bring it home and utilize it. L'se" cotton-seed oil, peanut oil. or corn oil for cooking. ! The hog supply of Europe is decreasing. Yet pork products are a : military necessity, and our soldiers and allies must have an increased amount of them. While hogs in America have increased in number by 3,000.000 animals, yet their average weight when killed is decreasing. This means that we are not producing more polk products than usual. So we must save hog fat to the last scrap. Glycerine is made of fats, and thousands of tons of glycerine are being used to make explosives. Waste fat and you help endanger our supply of ammunition. Don't waste soap. Suap is made from fat. Teach the children not to waste it. If you have fat scraps left, find out how to make them inlo scrubbing soap, or else sell theni to a collector. He, in turn, will sell them for making glycerine and oap. Can your country count on you to save at least one-third of an ounce of fat a day? If so, you will help it w in the war.

Loren Garner, a high school Sophomore, evidently failed to remember that Friday is meatiest day. This morning about 9:. TO o'clock he was working in Voria Demaree's sanctuary, the manual training shop. He was busily engaged whittling wood w-ith a sharp knife. After a while his head Itched. He successfully scratched it with the knife in his hand, and then he brought his hand down again. On the route down again the knife extracted piece of Iren's Hose. Nothing serious, but plenty of laughter from his fellow student. Prof. Demaree was moved from the pedestal of his dignity. Garner now ia the universal target of attention in LB. S,
