BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB
 RALLY 4 SUCCESS
Members From All Over County Enjoy a Day of Instruction and Pleasure-WhOle Town Assists in Entertaining.

About 100 boys and girls, members of the various agricultural clubs of Nevada county, came to Prescott Tuesday for the First Annual Club Rally. It would be hard to find a brighter, healthier, happier bunch of youngsters than these anywhere.
 They, with something over 100 vis- itors and parents, assembled at 10 o'clock in the court house.
 Judge Franks acted as chairman. The children all joined in singing the song of the day, America" Then Rev. F. Holt opened the meeting with prayer After which Judge Franks extended a most cordial well come on behalf of himself and the people of Prescott. Then he intro duced the speakers in the following order:
 1 Mrs. J. M. Putnam. Prescott; MT. w. J. Jernigan, Miss Ruby Tennison, Little Rock; Hon. T. c. McRae, Pres colt.
 l After the speaking, as the people came out, they were held up at the foot of the sairs and given a most de- licious lunch prepared by the ladies of Prescott, and distributed by mem- bers of the Young Peoples Mission ary Society and the B. Y. P. U. Then what a picnic feast was had out on the court house lawn.
 ! The Bank of Prescott saw to it that they had plenty of ice water to drink and sanitary drinking cups.
 After the lunch hour the boys met upstairs for instructions in "pig management" The girls gathered on the lawn to see how canning club girls should can tomatoes and beans. Also to learn about the use of the outdoor canners which the Prescott Hardware Co. sent over for use.
 The children then lined up for a parade through the business part of town. They stopped at the principal corners and gave cheers for Prescott and the Clubs. This parade ended at the Gem Theater where the children found open doors to the movie show. These doors were opened by the gen. erosity of the business men and the kindness of Manager Hardy.
 When the youngsters swarmed out of the show they found about 15 auto mobiles lined up waiting to take them to the ice plant where the manager served them with ice cold drinks.
 The day was too short By the time they reassembled at the court yard square it was already late to start for home.
 There was nothing except highest praise from all the visitors for the people of Prescott. The children re- marked on leaving, "We had the best time we ever did have" Some one asked when they were coming back again. They said, "Just as soon as you'll let us."

Americas dogs are starving.
Dogs OF Wilmington declare that is
true. basing their statements on word
received from leading dogs in all the
large cities.
A. Fido Bowser today told a re-
porter for THE EVENING JOURNAL
the situation has reached such a serl-
GUS condition that retaliatory meas
ures may be necessary. He limited

Right here in Wilmington" said
BOwser. thousands of our best dogs
are getting insufficient food am
personally acquainted with many dogs
that have not had a decent meal in
month.
In most of the alleys running of
from Delaware avenue there is no
longer a decent meal to be found for
even a small dog, let alone the big
dogs. Garbage cans that used to be
good for a fat bone any day in the
week now seldom produce one a week.
In the old days most of the cans
also containd bits OF meat. chunks OF
bread and often various finer delica-
cies. These are seldom found now
Just last night I visited one OF our
best known garbage cans and found
in 1t nothing but a piece Of string,
some onion tops and a broken bottle
OF spoiled catsup. In whole nights
search found scarcely enough to
take away the sharpest pangs Of
hunger.
This situation cannot last much
longer. We cannot permit our dogs
TO starve. Since people have begun
to cut out what they call waste there
is nothing for us. We have no poor
house to go to. There is no refuge
for US.
I'VE are considering a national con-
vention at which at attempt will be
made to devise plans for feeding
American dogs during the war.
"Our American dogs are as patriotic
as could be wished. They are willing

ly. but they are not willing TO be

THE OUTLOOK FOR FOOD.

The great impetus which has been
given by the war to the production of
foodstuffs leads the New York Times
to predict that the supply will be the
greatest ever known and will include
many products that can be substituted
for wheat
Altho we may have no more new
wheat than is ordinarily required for
home consumption. says the Times,
there is abundant evidence that other
food crops will be very large. Even
the report that showed the loss of so
much wheat acreage estimated the
coming crop of rye at so, 900. 600 bush
els. against last years 100000.
There has been no official statement
about corn, always at the head of the
list in quantity harvested, but it is
known that the acreage has been in
creased. Corn will be grown in many
of the fields where winter sown wheat
was killed. There are very favorable
reports about oats. pointing to an acre
age addition of IA per cent.
In all parts of the country may be
seen proof that the need of greater
Yields of foodstuffs is fully realized
and that the American people are
striving TO satisfy the exceptional de-
mand. Several hundred thousand
acres of land heretofore idle are under
