PARAMOUNT DUTY OF AMERI-

So Declares Cardinal Gibbons in Ser
mon on "LOyalty to Country

-
!. Baltimore, October 28.-"The para
mount duty of American citizens in the
present crisis is a hearty and loyal
obedience to the constituted authOri-
ties" declared Cardinal Gibbons in a
sermon On Loyalty to Country" which
he delivered in the cathedral here to-
day.
BE slow to criticize" the cardinal
continued. remember that you view
the situation from one angle; your
rulers contemplate it from various
angles. They have lights and sources
of information that are closed to you.
Your judgement OF the administration
and your criticism of their official acts
should be always subordinated to a
generous and wholesoled submission
to their rulings. 1t is theirs to COM
mand; it is yours to obey.
Honorable Course.
"And in manifesting your loyalty to
your country, you will be pursuing a
sacred and honorable course, and you
will be following the invariable tradi-
tons of your fathers from the founda-
ton of the republic.

try where liberty is granted without
license and authority is exercised with

holds over Us the aegis OF it's protec-

given rights of conscience.

does not imply any ~antagonism be-

The Man Who Stuck to the Plow

The average citizen of the United
tates this veal owes at least a thought
of appreciation to the farm hand who
stood by his rake and his pIow and
refused the lure of higher wages in
the cities and larger towns. There
was surely something besides selfish
ness in the motives that caused these
men to work in many cases from ~ to
IA hours for a wage of SO a day, when
unskilled labor was bringing SIS for
an efght-hour day within IL hours ride
from the average eastern farm. Not
only have the farm hands helped to

FOOD PLEDGE CAMPAIGN.

Raleigh, N. c., Oct. 29.-Food Pledge
Campaign week in North Carolina was
ushered in under most favorable cir
cumstances Saturday, the first day be-
ing observed as Food Information and
Registration Day. Reports from many
counties of the State show that enthu-
siastic meetings were held at the
school houses and that thousands Of
housewives took the first opportunity
offered to pledge their cooperation for
service at home to win the war.
The State has been thoroughly or
gained for this campaign and those

Food Administrator Henry A. Pages
organization and preparations declare
that not only will the results of the,
campaign be ~far-reaching insofar as
the saving and substitution Of food
stuffs are concerned. but that a more
intimate sympathy upon the part of the
people generally will be established,
each individual being shown by facts
and figures that the services that may
be rendered by them at home are just
as important as the service that Will
be rendered by the soldiers in the front
ranks.
THE service asked Of the people at
home is so simple and so easy" stated
Mr.. Page to your correspondent, that
our people have been slow to realize
just how vital and necessary it is. The
cooperation we ask of the housewife
and the consumer of food will help to
win the war-and to win it quicker
and with a smaller loss of life. Sure
ly our government, our soldiers and
the mothers of these soldiers, have a
right to demand and expect the fullest
and most cheerful cooperation, espec-
tally when one remembers that the
course we ask all housewives to pursue
is the wise course from the standpoint
Of economy and health"
The pledge card which each house
wife in the State is asked to sign this
week is simple. imposing no onerous
or impossible obligation upon the sign
er. 1t reads as follows:
"To the Food Administrator:
"I am glad to join you in the SER
vice Of food conservation for our nation
and I hereby accept membership IN the
United States Food Administration,
