PURPOSE OF WOMEN'S
PLEDGE IS EXPLAINED
No Hardship Necessary, But Only
Conservation of Supplies and Use
of Home Products
To the Women of Stevens County

The food pledge cards have ar
rived from Washington and are now
in the hands of the various town
chairmen ready for your signatures.
Morris Miss Nellie Moran.
Hancock-Mrs. L. M. Ransom.
Chokio-Mrs. L. C. Dorweiler.
Alberta-Mrs. Will Peterson.
Donnelly-Mrs. J. A. Folkins.
The cards in Morris are on file at
Krueger's and Sylvander's drug
stores and women, both in and out of
town, are urged to call and sign
them.
There seems to be some misunder-
standing in regard to the object of
these cards and the reasons for sign
ing them and sending them on to
Washington.
First, is should be stated, that
there is no cost or money obliga-
tions connected with them.
Second, the primary object is not
the saving of money for the benefit
of the individual, in practising the
economies as recommended, tho this
will be the natural result of follow
ing instructions.
The main object is to make a saw
ing of wheat, meat, fats and sugar
in order that the amount of exports
of these food Stuffs to our Allies be
greatly increased. The United States
must supply her Allies with staple
foods if they are to be able to con-
tinue the war. This can only be
done in sufficient quantities by the
help of the women of the country
who must be willing to cut down
the use of the foods mentioned, us
ing less of them and substituting
other things, such as the cOarser
grains and perishable things such as
vegetables and fruits, wherever pos
sible
1t is not the purpose Of this plan
to work any hardship on the people.
We are urged to provide ample and
nOurishing meals for our families
three times a day. But we are asked
to lessen the use of wheat flour,
meats, fats and sugar and to use
foods that are produced in our own
part of the country, thus saving the
cost of freights. We should use meat
from mature animals only, cutting
out veal, lamb and young pork. We
should cook by boiling and baking
instead of frying and so decrease the
consumption of fats. Recipes for
making the new war bread" with
part cornmeal, oatmeal or rye to-
gether with white -four, will be furn-
ished. These breads are light, whole
some and good to the taste.
The effect of the acceptance of this
plan by few women only will be
insignificant but should it be adopt
ed by women as a unit it is estimated
that exports to our Allies will be in
creased at least twenty-five per cent.
AS patriotic duty, to do your bit
toward helping to win the war, you
are asked to sign these cards and join
the food conservation army which to
be adequate must include every
housewife of the nation.
The German minister of agricuI-
ture says the war will be won not
by the last bullet but by last crust.
It is up to us to see that the United
States and her Allies have that
crust.
Mrs. F. A. Hancock,
County Chairman.

PRESIDENTS DAUGHTER
 REACHES CITY TUESDAY
Miss Margaret Woodrow Wilson Will Sing Wednesday Even ing for Benefit of Red CrossSocial Attentions Will
 Be Minmized at Her Own Request

From present indications the citi- zens of Birmingham will turn out in large numbers on Tuesday afternoon at $40 o'clock at the Terminal sta- tion to welcome Miss Margaret Wood row Wilson, daughter of the President, who will arrive in the city at that hour The purpose of Miss Wilson's visit is to give a song recital for the benefit of the American Red Cross at the Jefferson theatre on Wednesday evening.
 When this patriotic, loyal American girl consulted with her distinguished father about how she might best serve her country in it's present crisis he suggested that she use the gift of song with which she is richly endowed, and in that way she could be of more real assistance to the Rod Cross than in rolling bandages or other relief work.
 In spite of the fatigue of travel and many demands made on her time in every city where Miss Wilson sings she is bravely and without fuss of feathers" doing her bit for her coun- try's cause and from the proceeds of her concerts is adding materially to the Red Cross funds
 That Birmingham will not shower Miss Wilson with social attentions dur ing her visit here is not due to any lack of desire or hospitable intent but

Hurrah! How's This Cincinnati authority says corns dry up and lift out
 with fingers.

Hospital records show that every time you cut corn you invite lock law or blood poison, which is needless, says a Cincinnati authority, who tells you that quarter ounce of drug called freezone can be obtained at lit file cost from the drug store, but is sufficient to rid ones feet of every hard or soft corn or callus.
 NYou simply apply a few drops ot freezone on tender, aching corn and soreness is instantly relieved. Shortly thN entire corn can be lifted out, root ana all, without pain.
 This drug Is sticky but dries at once and is claimed to just shrivel up any corn without inflaming or even irri- tating the surrounding tissue or skin
