the Food Administrator:

To the Food Administrator:
am glad to join you in the serv-
ice of food conservation for our ma
ton and | hereby accept member
ship in the United States Food
Administration, pledging myself to
carry out the directions and adj
vice of the Food Administrator in
my home, insofar as my circum-
stances permit.
This is the pledge which Brattlc-
boro housewives will be asked to sign
Saturday, that time having been Sc
lected by those in charge of the local
food pledge campaign as most conven-
lent for the 60-odd school girls VINO
are to make the canvass.
The town has been carefully divided
into districts which have been assigned
TO girls from the public and parochial
schools, and it will be the duty of these
young conservationists to visit every
house in the locality assigned them.
In addition to cards bearing the above
printed pledge, which it is expected
every housewife will sign and return,
the girls will distribute cards giving
in detail the requests of the Food Adj
ministration and window cards to des-
ignate that the household has enlist
ed in the food conservation campaign.
Every housewife is asked to bear in
mind that even though she may be
conducting her household just as eco
nomically as possible her name is want
ed on a pledge card so that Brattle.
boro along with the rest of Vermont
may be placed on record in actual fig
uros. There is nothing in the pledge
that imposes any hardship.
At the request of the finance com.
mittee of the Red Cross the girls will
collect old silver or gold, to be sold
for the benefit of that organization. 1t
is hoped that people will make it q
point to hunt up any odd bits Of these
