President Wilson has called upon
American manhood and American
womanhood to defend their lives, their
fortunes and their sacred honor. And
that call, sounded in no uncertain
terms is to all the people Of all races
who have forcgathered upon American
soil seeking the shelter Of flag that
symbolizcs freedom on land and sea.
Ogden Examiner: The presidents
words to congress may well serve to
emphasize an actual war situation long

The old saying that French family will live on
what American family throws away goes even

of agriculture that American kitchens waste $780,

guess do not know But assuming it to be
based a waste of So to $50 year for each
family, it absurdcdly conservative figure.

waste is far larger item.
Most housewives have made some effort to

of the economies which make French Hv-
ing cheap and palaablc than do their servants.
And the dining room table. like the kitchen table,
has absurd standards Of what is good food and what
is not that would do credit to spoiled five-year-
old. The Irish peasants, who scorned such excel

Whatever remedy there is must be n slow one.
we fear-unless a national calamity should place Il

is part OF our whole national lack of thrift. the
spcndthrift confidence of young nation still
gagged in scratching the surface of its and
quite unready to settle down to careful living. The
education Of women of class in the practical
business Of economical living offers the best hope.
Our schools have been slow to work along these
Zines, and the change is hardly begun. 1t is the
next generation ehat are counting most. and
its training is stn Very much as was its predeces
