 The children of Connecticut are fully aware that their country is at war. They are being told that if they want to be truly patriotic they must eat less candy, and have even asked to prove their patriotism by doing without candy altogether until Christmas, a sacrifice as great for them as any their elders have yet been called upon to make But re- ports made by teachers and others who are urging this conservation movement show that many children are displaying as loyal spirit as the grown-ups in making sacrifices for the nation. The "No Candy Till Christi mas'' campaign is being pushed. MT. Hoover has asked us to use less sugar, or the French people will have to be without it, for two months. The soldiers need sugar, for it gives them strength to fight. It also helps keep them warm, for it is fuel food. You oan get all you need from fruits, cake and desserts, and you can save by going without extra sugar in the way of candy. Eat honey, syrup, maple sugar and marmalades and save sugar as your part of helping to win the war.
