st. Die, on the borders of Alsace, is
called after st. Dicuil or Deicolus, a
disciple of the celebrated Columbanus
OF Leinster and LuXeuil who founded
the noble monastery of Lure. Not far
away, at the foot of Mount Terrible,

Desidod, an early Irish missionary in
Germany. Alto-Munster is likewise
called after an Irishman who founded

of "Altus' indicates that he belonged

which, strange to Say, has not yet

YOUR DAILY SERVICE

Save the Fats-We are the worlds
greatest fat MASTERS. Fat is food
Butter is essential for the growth and
health of children. Use butter on the
table as usual but not in cooking.
Other fats are as good. Reduce use
of fried foods. Soap contains fats
Do not waste it. Make your own
saved fats.
Use one-third ounce less per day
of animal fat, and $4,000 tons will
be saved yearly
Save the Sugar-Sugar is scarcer
We use today three times as much
per person as our allies. So that
there may be enough for all at rea
sonable price, use less candy and
sweet drinks. Do not stint sugar in
putting up fruit and jams. They
will save butter.
If everyone in America saves one
ounce of sugar daily, it means
100000 tons for the year.
Save the Fuel-Coal comes from
distance and our railways are over
burdened hauling war material. Help
relieve them by burning fewer fires
Use wood when you can get it.
Use the Perishable Foods-Fruits
and vegetables We have in album
dance AS a nation we eat too little
green stuffs. Double their use and
improve your health. Store potatoes
and other roots properly and they will
keep. Begin now to can or dry all
surplus garden products.
Use Local Supplies-Patroniz your
local producer. Distance means
money Buy perishable food from the
neighborhood nearest you and thus
save transportation.
General Rules.
Buy less, serve smaller portions.
Preach the gospel of the clean
plate"
Don't eat fourth meal.
Don't limit the plain food of grow
| ing children.
Watch out for wastes in the com
munity
Full garbage pals in America
mean empty dinner pals in America
and Europe.
If the more fortunate of our PEG
pie will avoid waste and eat no more
than they need, the high cost of living
problem of the less fortunate will be
solved.

HERBERT C. HOOVER OFFERS
USEFUL SUGGESTioNS-PRINcI-
PIES TO HELP IN CONSERVING
NATIONS FOOD SUPPLY.

The food economics which Her
bert C. Hoover of the food admin
istration department desires to sug-
gest to the American people consti-
tute the cardinal principles of the
food campaign, and are set forth in
clear type on a small card for gen
eral distribution, in terms so def
mite and concise that all will know
exactly what and how to save
A reading of the card, Mr.. Hoover
insists, shows that to follow it's sug-
gestions entails no real hardships.
It's text follows:
United States Food Administration.
Win the War by Giving Your Own
Daily Service
Save the Wheat-One wheatless
meal a day. Use corn, oatmeal, rye
or barley bread and non-wheat break
fast foods. Order bread twenty-four
hours in advance so your baker will
not bake beyond his needs. Cut the
loaf on the table and only as required.
Use stale bread for cooking, toast,
etc. Eat less cake and pastry.
Our wheat harvest is far below
normal. If each person weekly
saves one pound of wheat flour, that
means 15O,OOO,000 more bushels OF
wheat for the Allies to mix in their
bread. This will help them TO save
democracy.
Save the Meat-Beef, mutton or
pork not more than once daily. Use
freely vegetables and fish. At the
meat meal serve smaller portions
and stew instead of steaks. Make
made dishes" of all left-overs. Dc
this and there will be meat enough
for every one at a reasonable price
We are today killing the dairy
COWS and female calves as the re
suit of high prices. Therefore, eat
less and eat no young meat. If we
save an ounce of meat each day pei
person, we will have additional sup
ply equal to 100000 cattle
Save the Milk-The children must
have milk. Save every drop Use
buttermilk and sour milk for cook
ing and making cottage cheese. Use
less cream.

for the present. That this camp has
met need among the girls of Mime

which have poured in from the day of
the opening. Good home-cooking, bath
ing, boating and tennis have been the
main attractions. A number Of young
women have been assisting, under the
leadership of Mrs. Daniel Coonan.

When Elutheros Venizelos resigned
as premier under former King Con-

force Of soldiers attached themselves
to his standard.
The Greek military and royalist
party. however, continued to control

It will probably be several months
before these two factions In the
