the food administration in conserving
food.
The schools, churches, the Eagles,
Elks, Masons, Knights of Pythias, the
Eastern Star, the Mems and Women's
County Council of Defense and the
Four Minute Men of the county, are
pledged to enter into the campaign
to secure signatures on the pledges,
which will be sent in to Ralph P.
Merritt, federal food administrator
for California, stationed at San Fran
cisco.
Charles E. Scott is chairman of the
county campaign.
Those who sign the pledge will be
given membership window cards,
which they may display to show their
neighbors that they, too, are entering
into the campaign to conserve food.
In addition to this, card bearing in
structions from Washington on how
food might best be conserved will

the Chinese of the local Chinatown
and many, machines playing Chinese
records may be heard each evening
down Oregon street. The phOnograph
has proved to be a connecting link
between old China and New America,
and when the laundries and green gro
ceries of the Chinese quarter close for
the night the Orientals gather in the
stores having monographs and listen

saving in waste by the majority and
the lessening of food consumption by
many. This individual daily service
