"Many a Mickle Makes a Muclde"

A little slice of bread is a small thins: to write an editorial abont.r But many; kittle slices of bread give food for the body and food for thought ? as the Department of Agriculture proves in . a

a dissertation which one of its experts has written

Some of the thoughts of this article are re-

produced. . ' . ; If ! One good-sized slice' of bread weighs an ounce.

It contains almost three-fourths of an ounce of

flour. : - '. ' There are 20.000.000 homes in the United

j States. If every home wastes one slice of bread,

the country is throwing away 14,000,000 ounces

of floor more than 875,000 pounds, or enough

of bread. ' r 1 . ,,. '.'V ' "XV ' .... . m ' m mm

It would take the crop of about 470,000 acres to provide the flour for a tingle slice of bread wasted dally fat every American home. What does the sermonette of the Department

& of Agriculture mean to you?

"! $

Lever said there was nothing in the measure to disturb legitimate business activities. This bill and the espionage measure ' which

was defeated in the House, are among the first indications to the nation that war is a

pretty serious business. They also show. . as

pointed in an editorial the other day, that the American ' people must insist' vehemently that

their inherent rights be protected against inroads that would subvert our republic into a monarchy

with supreme power vested in the hands of one

man and his advisers and friends.

The food regulation bill may be necessity,

and no one will oppose its enactmentinto law if

the situation demands it; but, on the other hand,

the investiture of absolute power, over part of

our business and industry into the hands of one man is a step about "which the American people

will want to think long and hard.

President Wilson has shown some highly au

tocratic tendencies in his administration, and, in

the handling of some of our international affairs, has tried to exalt the function of the 'executive department above the limitations prescribed by the founders of our nation. If all the industrial and commercial interests of our country are to be placed in his hands, we are giving him a power and a right which even Abraham Lincoln did not have in the days of the Civil war. We believe that not the president but a commission with proper checks thrown about its functioning should have this highly important question under its jurisdiction. . The president's knowledge of the issues involved in a food dictatorship are entirely too limited. ' Scores of men in the United States possess better qualification for the position than does he. We believe the government should exercise a control over the whole food : problem, but this control should not be vested in. the hands of the chief executive, but should be placed in the hands of men who are conversant with the problems involved. " ' The constitutional rights of the citizens of this republic cannot be infringed upon because of the international problem. They must be held

inviolate under all conditions.

SUPER-TIRES " give the final touch

of perfection to a Ford car. Though they cost a little more than ordinary tires, the greater style, comfort, and efficiency you gain from a Ford with them thrice cancel the first cost. Tires of HEROIC SIZE, they last longer. Look them oyer at your dealer's. Ask him for-

BLACK SAFETY TREAD TIRES

You will find them big, burly tires burly , in extra rubber and extra wear, made in the five-finger Safety Tread ONLY. They fit 30-inch ; rims, but are an inch ' bigger on the circumference than ordinary tires, with full three and three-quarter inches in the cross section. - " -

Put "THREE-SEVENTY-FIVES" under your Ford, and you add value in appearance to the class of your car. Ori account of reduced stress and strain they double your toy of motoring, and the life of your ear, and spell tire economy in bigger mileage.
