Back to Meatless Days The announcement that meat restrictions would be enforced after a lapse of several months comes as no surprise to most Americans, for it vas generally understood that lack of transportation facilities across the ocean was the real reason why, the order was lifted. The average American will not consider it a hardship if he is called on to forego meat once or twice during the week. The experience of last winter worked no hardship, and if medical authorities are to be trusted, all of us received a distinct benefit by voluntarily desisting from meat. Our soldiers and Allies require every pound of meat we can spare. Civilians can get along without meat better than soldiers who are fighting in the trenches. Patriots have made up their minds that they will be denying themselves greater sacrifices before the war is over than a voluntary abstinence from meat now and then. When the new order goes into effect a patriotic nation will respond to its sentiments.

Over Here is Over There Carl Ackerman, noted journalist and author

ity on European affairs, in a private letter to a friend in a southern city says : "After my trip to Paris, I think the best place to work is America. Everything depends upon the Ignited States and the work which is done there. Uncle Sam is the only one who can win the war now, and whatever you and the others do over there is more important than what others do over here, because if America lags the war is lost." Ackerman is in a position to know what he is writing about, for he knows conditions not only in France and England but also in Germany. Although the actual battle front is 3,000 miles away, the real preparations for the fighting must go in the United States. The Allies admit that they have reached the zenith of their ability to furnish men and materials. Henceforth, the reserves for the armies and munitions and finances for the conflict must originate in the United States. Accepting this premise, it becomes necessary for the people of the United States to buckle to their task in awful earnestness. There can be no half way procedure, no halting because the sun is hot and the road rough. The highway to victory will be a hard one, but me must travel its entire length. We cannot use a short cut, for the moment we try it, we are doomed to defeat. How vital then that we address ourselves to the work with an earnest desire to win ! How important that we look upon the winning of the war as the greatest piece of business in which we ever have engaged! Over here is over there. None of us would flee before a German attack

over there; none of ua would turn traitor over there. If we are remiss here, we are doing: both, for over here is over there. Keep Your Liberty Bonds The Indiana State Council of Defense is warning investors against fake companies in these words: Hold fast to your Liberty bonds I They are still the best investment in the world! Their value is constantly increasing, notwithstanding stock market quotations, and the assertions of Pro-Germans to the contrary. This is the word that comes from the Indiana State Council of Defense and it has the endorsement of the director of Liberty loan bond sales in Indiana, Will R. Wade. Swindlers have been very busy in Indiana during the past few months, selling securities that in many instances are not worth the cost of the fancy colored inks used in their printing. Oil stocks, gold mine and motor investments, aeroplane projects and other "wild cat" schemes are as common as the barberry which threatents Indiana wheat, and in most cases they are even more destructive. Promoters of these fakes have been success

ful in many communities in convincing owners!

of Liberty loan bonds that the stock is worth more than Uncle Sam's paper. Trades have been made, in some cases, without formality. The "grafters" have not even left the usual printed applications for "stock" purchases, but have taken their "stock certificates" from their pockets and made the trade for Liberty bonds on the spot. The fact that neighboring states have "blue sky" laws which prohibit the sale of stock of doubtful value is said to be responsible for the unusual activity of "promoters" in Indiana, at this time. The greatly increased number of bond owners, who bought Liberty bonds as a patriotic duty, is said to make this field unusually attractive for the swindlers. It is to protect the innocent patriots that this warning is given. Beware of the stock salesman who urges the trading of Liberty loan bonds for "something much better."

Onur. Moment

It might be added that everybody should have an umbrella handy to carry during air raids. The patent office has a list of over 2.000 "unfailing" devices to destroy U-boats. Seems as though now Is the time to set about a thousand ot them In motion, saving the other thousand for future purposes. The trouble with most of them, how. ever, is that they will do most anything but destroy U-boats. Street gamins have adopted an abusive phrase which they think embodies the very essence of vituperation unspeakable : "You eon of a Hun." One of the sailors brought in from a torpedoed ship claimed that he had saved eighteen lives. He had really saved two cats. If your memory is good, doubtless you can remember back to the time when ladies were seen in street cars and Other public places knitting sweaters for soldiers.

Watch Your Coal From the Saturday Evening Post. IT IS June and balmy; but the calendar warns us that frost is only a hundred days or so away. We heed the admonition of the Fuel Administration and order our winter supply of fuel early. The dealer smiles indulgently and says: "Coal? If you will step out into the yard with me and look in the corners of two of the thirteen bins, 1 can show you some samples of that commodity. I am trying to hold on to the samples, because it would be a misfortune if I should forget what coal looks like. As to when I can deliver your winter supply I have no more idea than the man in the moon. I haven't a thing in sight; not even any tangible sort of promise." We should take this for an exceptional case; only a good man of the publications we pick up in the course of a day contain something or other in the same vein. North of the Ohio frost is, on an average, four months or so away. Much may be done in that time, with practically unlimited coal deposits available.

Coal consumers can do much. Our habitual pre-war

waste of fuel can be much reduced. Upon every man who expects to use a ton Of coal next winter or who uses coal now rests the responsibility of seeing that the fuel is economically used.

CONSERVE SURPLUS FOOD THAT IS A BIG DUTY OF HOUSEWIVES

A PLACE FOR SURPLUS TIME. Everybody can! Put your spare time into cans and jars. Home canning is kitchen patriotism. Don't have an empty preserving jar in your neighborhood next fall. If you have more preserving jars than you can fill, lend them to a neighbor who will make them work for the Nation.

I'pon the women and girls, and bo3, too, in the homes of America rests the large and important responsibility of making sure that the surplus of vegetables, berries and fruits prown this year is not wasted even in pnrt. It will be a patriotic service to can, dry or otherwise conserve the large surplus of vegetables expected from tho extraordinary efforts everywhere in America to increase production.

were used for this purpose. Last year, according to the United States Secretary of Agriculture, the home-garden movement was estimated to have stimulated the planting of from two hundred to three hundred per cent, more gardens than ever before had produced food in the United States. This year, it is expected, even last year's record will be surpassed. Every family with available ground has been urged to plant and cultivate a home garden. Eat all the vegetables and fruits you need, use them to the utmost to iessen your demand for other foodstuffs. But can, dry, brine or otherwise conserve all the surplus. By conserving the surplus the home women and girls in the country and in the cities and towns will be doing their part to lessen the national demand for wheat and meat and the other foods that are need in increasing quantities by our armies and the Allies.

The Productive Home Garden Promises Not Only Fresh Vegetables fcr the Table, but a Surplus fo r Canning and Use Next Winter. In every community in the country j Decrease Food Costs, food Is being produced in back yards Not only is there a national reand vacant lots that never before j sponsibility calling for the conserv

ing of food, but there is an obvious personal advantage. Every housewife' knows the cuts that can be made in table expenses by a larder well

stocked with jars and cans of homepreserved fruits and vegetables. Fur

thermore, the use of an abundant supply of fruits and vegetables is at all times essential to health. The problem of furnishing an adequate supply of food often is to be solved only

by such conservation. The need for variety in the diet is met most easily and economically by the surplus of the abundant season preserved for the

time or scarcity.

This is the foreword of a series of

articles prepared by food-conservation

specialists of the United States Department Of Agriculture. The articles are designed not only to guide those who have never conserved before, but

to help those who have had years of

experience. Simple, practical directions will be explained, proved recipes will be given, and every effort will be

made to provide plain workable in

structions. The articles to follow in this series will deal in detail with

canning, drying, brining, pickling, pre

serving, -and Jelly making. Those who wish detailed instructions at once are advised to write to the Division of Publication, U. S. Department of Agri

culture, Washington, D. CI, for public-

cations on the subjects in which they

are particularly interested.

DIN NER STORIEi A photographer, seeing a Scotch seaman, accompanied by a captain and

a petty officer, besought them all to have their pictures taken. Both the

petty officer and the captain escaped, but the seaman, just off his vessel, stopped. The last detail had been

arranged and the seaman was standing flatly and determined when the photographer started to press the bulb.

Well," said the subject, getting out of

pose. "Some other day. Ahll he here a week, mebbe, an' Ah'll see y' again fer a picter." "Well, why not

now?" 'Cause," answered the economical seaman, "Ah got a chaw of ter baccer In m' face t'day. Ah'll be along agin toward th end o' the week some day when 1 ain't got a chew in m' mouth." "Borrowing from Peter to pay Paul is bad business," said Mr. Dubwaite. "So It is," replied the impecunious citizen. "In my case I find it exceptionally bad business." "And why should it be worse for you than anybody else?" "I have the dickens of a time finding Peter."
