Ii has been announced thru Inc
press that Herbert Hoover has
been named to fill the position of
Controller of the food supply of the
United States. Mr.. Hoover in an
open statement to the public has
advised the housewives thruout
the length and breadth of the ma
ton to economic in the prepare
ton of foodstuffs and eliminate
waste. Very good advice, too, to
a nation of people notorious for
their prodisality. But Mr.. Hoov-
er has also advised the rich classes
to foreso the use of staple foods
and use only high priced Injuries.
Of course there may be sound
logic behind this advice. and all
clear thinking Americans would
do well to withhold their condem-
nation of the man until his state
ment is more fully explained. 1t
would seem. however,, that in
time of strife such as the United
States is now facing the logical
thing for all classes. and more es-
specially the rich. to do would be
to forego the Injuries, and if by SO
doing they can lessen the burden
which the very poor are carrying
they will be doing an infinitely
better service than to leave the
crusts to the poor. Their pamp-
cred appetites will probably re-
volt at the thought of partaking
of coarse food, and their pampered
stomachs will probably revolt more
strenuously than their appetites.
But in a few weeks or months
they will awaken to the benefit
they are deriving and will apprec-
late the extremity which demanded
the sacrifice to their better selves.
The cat and dog hospitals thrive
thru the pampered pets of the rich
and all in the world that happens
to them when they are put in the
hands of these feline or canine
specialists is that they are starved
for a few days to rid their systems
of the candy and cake on which
their mistresses attempt to nourish
them and are then fed coarse and
wholesome food and given plenty
of exercise. Anyone who has been
under the kindly ministrations of a
physical instructor for any of the
numerous ills which follow in the
train of high living know that the
same treatment is equally effica-
cious upon the human system as
we'll.
In the present extremity instead
of indulsing exclusively on rich
and expensive foods let our rich

enough in itself. to say nothing of
the physical.
Theodore Roosevelt has been
granted the necessary authority to
raise. equip and lead a volunteer
army corps into France. With
his dynamic personality Colonel
Roosevelt will have no trouble in
recruiting his corps to its full
strength; there will more probably
be an excess of applicants. Which
is all as it should be. and bespeaks
the Unborn patriotism of every true
blooded Yankee. But it is a ques-
ton whether the Colonel will be
able to land his troops in France
even after he has succeeded in
getting them aboard transports
The coast of France and other
contiguous seaboards will be liter
ally swarming with German T.
boats en- the lookout for those
transports, for it will be a much
more simple matter for Germany
to annihilate the corps as a unit
while at sea than it will be to deal
with it piecemeal after it shall have
reached the comparative security
of the trenches.
What an awful shock such a
catastrophe would be to the people
of the United States. Like the
battle of Lexington, where was
fired the shot that was heard
'r,und the world" such an occas-
ion would raise an echo which
would reverberate thru the length
and breadth of our land, and it is
safe to say that its effect would tie
to swamp the recruiting offices
with applications for service at the
font. Of course we do not wish
to impusn the patriotism Of the
men of our country--their lack of
interest as evidenced by the daily
reports of the progress of recruit
ing to the contrary Notwithstanding
but it would seem that some such
cataclysm as the humiliation Of
the Roosevelt expedition is needed
to jar our people out OF the coma
of security in which they appear
to be drifting and to fully awaken
them to a full realization of the
danger which confronts and threat
ems them. And we do not wish
to convey the impression that the
realization of the vital necessity OF
some such shock prompted the
granting of the authority to organ
ize the Roosevelt corps.
