veal Pennsylvania alone is shy 100000
calves. This situation must be overcome
by abstinence from veal We must alsc
avoid young lamb, sucking pigs and young
poultry. We must give these animals
chance to come to maturity, and by deny
ing ourselves them we will also bring down
the cost of meat
Next. we must do with 20 per cent less
sugar than we have been using. The Allies
need IT, we must see that they get it,"
There is nothing soft about this food
specialist You feel instinctively that when
he declares with such finality I'VE must
give up such-and-such a thing" he him
self has already done so and that the last
thing he would do would be to buy special
privileges in wartime for himself.
EAT PLENTY; AVOID WASTE
THE motto of the food department is
Eat plenty, save the staples and avoid
waste" Pennsylvania's food director con-
tinued. Particularly must we avoid waste
Tho garbage statistics in America are
frightful; the garbage can is a reproach to
the American family. Nothing that is of
wholesome food value must be wasted from
now on.
1T is conceivable that in the future we
may have a reasonable food economy en-
forced by Federal regulation, but 1t is more
in accord with American spirit to volunteer
for world service than TO have such service
forced upon us by the dire necessity that
might result from continued successful sub
marine warfare coupled with a possible
serious failure of crops.
THE slices of bread that go to the table
must be smaller, this practical man con-
tinued, 80 that every piece which is taken
will be eaten. Only the amount needed
must be cut from the loaf.
Fresh vegetables and fruit, which we
are told will be abundant and cheap this
summer must be eaten in place of some
of the staples Also our women must learn
the old trick that our sranomothers knew
of driving green vegetables for winter use,
To this end the department Of food supply
is cooperating with the National Womans
Council of Defense, of which Mrs j. Willis
Martin is the State head, and Mrs. Charles
Lea is the chairman of Food Economy and
Thrift They will try to teach every house
holder the best and most economical meth
DDS of canning, drying and preserving.
in every way that It can this food de-
partment is working with the State Govern
ment departments so as to avoid duplication
of effort. The Farm Bureau, the Department
of Labor and the Department of Agriculture
have been Of inestimable assistance to us
in helping with the farm-labor problems
and organizing squads in the interest OF
food conservation and production and dis
tribution. But without the help Of every in
dividuaI woman, the millionairess, the
housekeeper, the servant, we shall get no.
where, AS usual, woman must play her Dig
mart in winning the war"

WHY HEART GAN
 BEAT AFTER DEATH

The quasti0n. When does man or an animal die?" has been answered When the heart stops beating" But any hunter or fisherman who has dres- sed his own catch can testify to the fact chat the heart does not stop beat ing at the moment of the animals death. Often it will continue to pull sate rhytnically for several minutes after it has been removed from the carcass
 Sciences answer to the why" Of .hi= is that the hear. muscles them contraction and will contract, or beat. selves possess the inherent quality of just as soon CT as long as the condi- i fuons of environment are right. That is their business and they can no more refrain from doing it under the right conditions thane. rose could help giving out it's fragrance.
 i In recent experiments it has been found that heat is the principal ele- ment necessary to the. development . of heart muscle and.their subsequent action.
 Science has made it possible to grow the heart muscles of a warm bloodad animal in an incubator. Dur ing this growth single muscle cell has been observed to develop and wan der away from the mother cell and be- gin to beat of it's own accord. Again several individual cells may attach themselves to each other in a colony and beat rhythmically together as long as the environment is favorable
 But let the temperature of the in cubator be materially reduced and the action of the heart muscles becomes 7luegish Reduce the temperature atill further and gradually the rhyth- mic action ceases altogether The cells cease to perform their natural function because their environment is non longer right In other words, they die because they are cold. Ac- cording to this theory, the heart mus cles could live on independently of body, if kept at the proper tempera- .ure for their best development.

DODCINC THE DRAFT

It became known that numerous
subterfuges to beat the draft have
been uncovered by the government
and that operatives are tracing down
dozens of men who in the rush of
registration day gave false names and
addresses, thereby obtaining the reg
ulation blue cards. The federal Off
Gals are now rounding up the guilty
ones, and they will be dealt with as
severely as the law will allow.
Christ Kalkens and Alexander Kar.
pewicz were held in bonds of $1,000
each by United States Commissioner
Mason pending investigation as slack
ers.
From now on stricter tactics, 1t is
said, will be adopted in the cases OF
slackers. Following special order
by Attorney General Gregory direct.
ing that all slackers be rounded up and
vigorously prosecuted, District Attor'
ney Charles +. Clyne conferred with
