CORN IS TRUE AMERICAN FOOD SAYS LEAFLET

Greatest Crop in History to Be Utilized on Tables.

INDIANAPOLIS. Jan. 11. " let tho good old corn adorn The hills our fathera trod; Still let us, for hla golden corn. Send up our thanks to God!" The above paragraph from Whittier's "Corn Song," conveys the aentl mcnt of the United States Food ad ministration and its attitude toward the staple crop of Indiana. Dr. Harry E. Barnard, federal food administrator fcr Indiana, aac been notified by J. XV. Hallowell, of the Federal food administrator's headquarters staff at Washington, that 200,000 copies of a leaflet setting forth the value of corn as a food crop have been printed and will be distributed broadcast The leaflet will be distributed through Indiana by Dr. Barnard and his assistants in tho food conservation campaign, without charge. Situation Critical "Let us face the facta," urges the leaflet. "The war situation is critical. Unless the allies fight as they have never fought, defeat threatens Hungry men cannot fight at their best, nor hungry nations. France. Kngland and Italy are going hungry unless we feed them. They muut have wheat. It is the test food to fight on. It is tho, easiest to ship. We alone can spare it to them. By saving just a little less than a quarter of what we ate last year we can support those who are fighting our battles. And tan do it without stinting ourselves We have only to substitute another fend just as good. "Corn is that food. There's a surplus of it. Providence has been generous in the hour of our need. It has givtn u3 corn in such bounty as was never known before tons cf corn, trainloads of corn, five hundren million Lubhel8 over and above our regular needs. All we have to do is to learn to appreciate it. Was ever patriotic duty made so easy? And so clear? "True American Focd" "Corn! It is the true American focd. The Indians, hardiest of races lived on it. Our forefathers adopted the diet and conquered a continent For a great section of our country i? has long been the staff of life. How well the South fought on 1. history fells. Now it can help America win a world war "Corn! It isn't one food, it's a dozen. It's a cereal. It's a vegetable. It's a bread. It's a dessert. It's nutritious; more food value in it, dollar for dollar, than meat or eggs or most oiher vegetables. It's good to eat; how good you don't know until you've had cofhbread properly baked. Best, cf all it's plentiful and patriotic." Then follows a number of most popular recipes for the preparation of corn dodger, corn meal and meat, corn bread, etc. There are at least fifty ways, the leaflet says, in which corn meal may be used to make good dishes for either of the day's meals.

the Germans, in an encircling movement during one of the fierce counterattacks which followed Byng's drive, came upon them, cutting them off from their main force. The engineers, surprised but undaunted, dropped their tools of construction and picked up tools of destruction. They turned to and gave

the Huns a taste of hand-to-hand combat which was new. Some of the boys were made prisoners, but they were wounded before being taken. The others fought their way through the Germans to the British lines and safety. Field Marshal Haig commended the engineers in his official reports.

"Y" Workers Abroad Will be Enlisted in Army Service

PARIS, Jan. 11. The American army and navy Y. M. C. A. in France Issued a statement today that it is not accepting for its service any men who are eligible for military service All men now in the Y. M. C. A. service who are subject to the draft h'ave been requested, with the approval of the American army authorities to remain at their posts until their draft numbers are called. All eventually will be replaced by men over draft age or those rejected for military service. It is said that only ten per cent of the present Y. M. C. A. personnel In France consists of men subject to the draft and that nearly fifty per cent, of those eligible, wha arrived during the first 6ix months the organization was established here, already have enlisted.

The statement concerning men of

draft age was given out by E. C. Car

ter, general secretary of Y. M. C. A. work In France, In answer to criticisms brought to his attention. At the outset of the war, the statement says,

the Y. M. C. A. was given definite auxiliary military duty to perform and every man who came abroad to help did so with the approval of Washington. It was necessary to take young men or to fall short of the duties entrusted to "the Red Triangle." Reinforcements now coming from America make It possible to announce that no more men liable to military duty will be accepted. . Eligible men already In the work cannot be released simultaneously, Secretary Garter, said, without seriously impairing Y, M. O. A, work.
