Ways to Save Food

The patriotic American housekeeper,
in striving to ''do her bit" in the nation
wide campaign to conserve our food
supply, finds herself confronted with the
necessity Of revising her methods of
conducting her home.
While q home-maker may be con-
vinced, and justly, that she is not
wasteful, if she will examine her
methods she will often find that she is
extravagant. In the present national
crisis, we need to practice the old
fashioned thrift and economy of our
grandmothers in our homes. We are
not advocating the eating Of less food
but we are urging less waste of food.
The amount actually wasted in a
home may seem small in each individual
case, but when the waste goes on
throughout the nation it counts up.
Fifty-seven varieties Of food are not
necessary for a well-balanced ration,
in fact the 81 varieties may be present
and square meal' absent. Let us,
as home makers, set about to be food

make use of meat substitutes
such as cheese, milk, beans, peas, nuts.
Make use of rice as q starchy food and
corn as bread stuff.
81 Eliminate over-eating and use Of
excessive and wasteful variety of foods.
4-Give careful attention to canning,
drying and proper storing of vegetables
and fruits. (Look up information now,
before canning season; save all bottles
as food containers as there is sure to
be scarcity Of fruit jars.)
5-Start simple systems Of home
accounts to check household ''leaks" in
business methods.
Hold to simple standards Of living.
Simplicity means the elimination of nom
essentials. Miriam M. Haynes,

Editors Meet Governor

To the editors of all the state, Gov
ernor Julius C. Gunter has outlined the
plans for Colorado's part in the world
war. The editors were asked by the
governor to meet 1T the state house in
extraordinary session. The Colorado
Editorial Association responded enthusi-
sstically.
The intimation of special session of
the legislature, which was contained in
the governors address, was met with
heartily. Many grave problems
nancial, economic and political-may
arise within the next few months. A
special session may become imperative.
That it is possibility which is being
considered long in advance only served
to convince the assembled editors that
Colorado is on the job"
The further intimation that the ses-
sion, if it should become necessary,
would be staged during the early fall,
proves that snap judgment and hasty
action are not part of Colorado's 8 scheme
certainly are no part of Governor
Gunter's plans.
The governor informed his audience
that he would appoint committee of
leading business and professional men
to study and formulate needed legisla-
tion. This, Of course, will have to do
with the states finances, with harvest
ing and disposing of her autumn crops,
with conserving her resources and pro-
noting her industries, all to the end
that there be no apology for Colorado's
part in the great armed struggle of the
ages.

GRUNTERS DRILL NAME bAYONET
 EXERCISE

FORT BLISS, Texas, Oct. 19-The Counters Drill" is what the troops stationed here call the daily bayonet exercises which are held on the sandy hill in front of the officers row.
 With wooden bayonets instead of the sharp steel ones, the cavalrymen divide into squads which oppose each other and then they go through the motions of bayonet charges. parry the enemy's thrusts and fence skillfully with their rifles. As they go through the motions of stabbing the enemy, the men grunt loudly with each thrust. A thrust to the abdomen and a grunt followed by quick series of short arm jabs to the breast of the ficti- tious Germans and more grunts.
 These throaty sounds are all given in unison and give the drill a grue- some touch of realism.

(By United Press)

r INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. f9. - A mans first duty is to God, his Creator; his next is to his country, whether it be his native or adopted country, in de- fense of. whose sovereign rights he should be prepared to shed his blood and lay down his life if necessary.
 Every man, no matter how humble or obscure his station in life, who is not privileged to join the armed forces of his country, should, in time of war, rouse himself to a realization of his duty to do whatever its as hand to help his country, and to aid by every means in his power his government to gather and wield it's forces and it's resources with such expedition and efficiency as to quickly conquer and speedily and successfully terminate the struggle.
 How can a man who cannot afford to buy Liberty bond or to make any considerable contribution to the Red Cross help our beloved America to win the war? As such a one I find every day in my occupation as a freight handler opportunities of rem dering valuable aid to our government by seeing to it that all government shipments or shipments fo" govern ment contracts, which come under my notice are expedited with all possible dispatch to their destinations, and by using extra vigilance that these ship ments are not misplaced or misloaded, but are carefully handled and slowed in cars so as to reach destination in perfect condition, giving them prefer ence over many other classes of freight, and working overtime when necessary that they may not suffer delay.
