So, on account of the insistence OF
those companies which, though al
ready supplied, set up clamor for a
share of the 500 guns secured by Mr..
Drane, none of the Home Guards will
get them. The Governor settled the
controversy by deciding to keep the
guns in his own charge. Looks like
some of the county organizations
played the dog in the manger on this
proposition.

Merely signing the pledge cards
passed around by the food conserva-
ton folks will not avail much unless
one sincerely and honestly means to
do something to aid in this great
work. The desire of the government
is not that the people should deprive
themselves of anything necessary tC
their health and comfort, but merely
to save the waste, which in this coun
try is colossal, and in itself would feed
an army.
