SPEAKERS URGE CO-OPERATION QF WOMEN IN HOME Annual Meeting of Home Economics Association Is Held in Richmond.

The importance of the housewife's co-operation in carrying out the food conservation program was emphasized by the' speakers at the annual meeting of the Wayne County Home Economics association, held Saturday In the high school auditorium. Miss Nina Short, county teacher of domestic science, presided.'

"women must learn to put homes on a business basis." Short said in her opening talk, mut have more time for those

mous demands on our time, conservation in cooking, gardens, canning, .chickens, Liberty loan, registration,

Kea cross and work to be done here at hand. We have no time to wait. The enemy did not wait until the Allies were ready to fight, and neither

can we wait to do our work."

Every woman should "draft her

neighbor into food conservation." Miss Elizabeth Cowan of the extension de

partment of Purdue university, said In . an address. "What one woman can waste, 10 can . save," she said. , White bread Is the result of the highest form of civilization. Miss Cowan stated, and we were born at a period when only white bread is used. For that reason it has been more difficult to become accustomed to the substitutes for wheat flour. "It is unfortunate that the substitutes cost more than the wheat," she said. "The price should be at least the same, so that the people's patriotism will not be put on a money basis." Miss Cowan praised the women of the Allies for the service which they have rendered in the war. "There are 4.000,000 women in England at work, many of whom have never been used to working. All that we can do is very little comparative

Richmond Woman Invests j Her $150 Funeral Faid I in Liberty Loan Bomi No figures relative to the amount Liberty bond sales In Richmond and Wayne county Saturday, the first day of the campaign, could be announce by the committee, though from the activities reported from practically each of the fifteen townships and th&

city, there were indications that the aggregate, would go above the mark anticipated. The committee announced that It expected the county's quota of $1,100,000 to be oversubscribed within a week or ten days. The women's committee reported

the subscription of a Wayne county

woman for $150 of Liberty bonds,, which represents the savings of years, and which had been secreted beneath

a carpet in her home. Thirty years ago this woman lost all the wealth she possessed at the time in the failure ofj a bank. From that time until the present she always has kept her money hid-: den about her home. Some years ago fire in an old stove Several hundred, i

dollars which the woman had secreted within the stove was destroyed.

Since that time this woman's "bank

has been beneath a carpet, and thai!

wealth acquired, $150, represented the

woman's runerai tuna, sue has now turned It over for the purchase of, Liberty bonds because she believes

that the nation's urgent call should bew

answered.

HUN PROPAGANDA CIRCULATED HERE

The chairman of the Wayne county council of defense declared Saturday that' reports have been circulated in Richmond to the effect that the third Liberty, loan bonds did not mature for 35 years. The chairman of the coun

cil branded such stories as the "rankest" kind of German propoganda, and said that those who started them would be dealt with harshly If their names could be learned. As a matter of fact the Liberty bonds mature in 10 years and are negotiable at any bank any time for cash. The council has learned, it is said, that such propaganda has been circulated in other parts of the country as well, and officials are exerting every effort to bring the guilty to justice. Any Wayne county citizen who hears any person make the declaration that the Liberty bonds do not mature fori

35 years, is requested by the council to show their patriotism by immediately reporting the matter.
