even admit that withdrawal of Per-

Conserve Clothing.

Clothing is largely an agricultural
product and represents the results of
labor on the sheep ranges, in cotton
fields, and in mills and factories. When
ever a useful garment is needessly dis
carded material needed to keep some one
warm or dry may be consumed merely
to crafty a passing fancy. Women
would do well to look upon clothing at
this time more particularly from the
utilltarian point of view.
Leather, too, is scarce and the proper
shoeing of armies calls for great sup
plies of this material There are only so
many pairs of shoes in each hide and
there IS a shortage of animals for leath-
er as well as for meat. Anything that
can be done to encourage adults or chill
dren to take care of their shoes and
make them last longer means that so
much more leather is made available for
other purposes.
Employed women, especially those
engaged in the manufacture of food or
clothing, also directly serve their coun-
try and should put into their tasks the
enthusiasm and energy the importance
of their product warrants.
Encourage Thrift.
while all honor is due to the wom-
en- who leave their homes to nurse and
care for those wounded in battle, nc
woman should feel that, because she
does not wear a nurses uniform, she i.
absolvcd from patriotic service. The
home women of the country, if they will
give their minds fully to this vital sub
ject of food conservation and trail
themselves in household thrift, can max,
of the housewives apron uniform o
national significance.
Demonstrate thrift in your home
and encourage thrift among your neigh
bors.
Make saving rather than spending
your social standard.
Make economy fashinable lest it be
come obligatory"

To Save Food.

ITO save food the housewife must
learn to plan economical and properly
balanced meals which, while nourishing
each member of the family properly, do
not encourage over-eating or offer ex-
cessive and wastcful variety. 1t is her
duty TO use all effective spoiage by
heat dirt, mice, or insects. She must
acquire the culinary ability to utilize
every bit of edible food that comes into
her home. She must learn to use such
foods as vegetables, beans, peas, and
milk products as partial substitutes for
meat She must make it her business to
see that nothing nutritious is thrown
away or allowed to be wasted.
Waste in any individual household
may seem to be insignificant, but if only
single ounce of edible food, on the
average, is allowed to spoil or be thrown
away in each of Our 2O,OOO,OOO homes
over 100000 pounds of material would
be wasted each day. 1t takes the fruit
of many acres and the work of many
people to raise, prepare, and distribute
AGA 100000 pounds of food a year. Every
ounce of food thrown away, therefore,
tends also to waste the labor of an army
of busy citizens.

To the Women of the United States
Every woman can render important

LECTURES ON FOLKLORE
DIR. ". A. Montgomery. of Richmond
College. Speaks to Large Au-
dtcucc ut Art Climb.

Pr W. \. Montgomery. of Richmond
College. secretary OF the Virgin VA
Folklore Society. made an, address be-
fore the Art Club of Richmond yes
terday on folklore.
DR.. Montgomery knowledge and APP
probation OF this Fascinating subject
and his choice of old ballads made the
afternoon one OF the most delightful
ever held at the club. The appeal to
the audience in this subject was two
fOld--that of Virginia traditions to Il
Virginia audience. and the special APP
peal of the poetic and artistic to those
interested in artistic things
"A greater number OF old world bal
lads have been found in Virginia than
in any other Southern State" said DR..
montgomery The number is thirty,
with many variants"
The speaker then considered the ma
ture Of the ballad continually; Ballads
are rather pagan in spirit. dealing
with vengeance and murder and witches
aud fairies
The plots are generally of lovers
torn asunder or separated by death. or
OF Ghostly visitations. and the dra-
matte side counts most. Our great
characteristic of ballad is the like
ness between one verse and another
which makes it easily learned by the
crowd The group spri, is seen also
in the idea which runs through them
of the poor against the rich. as in
stanced in Robin Hood. who stole from
the rich and gave to the poor The
rimeS are not always real rimcs. and
the numbers found III ballads are gem
orally odd numbers. such as three and
seven. while green is a favorite color
expressions such as green gown or
Lincoln green often appear. The
names of towns on the border Of Eng
land and Scotland often occur. most
often that of Lincoln
Most Of the ballads found in Amer
lea are west OF line which might
be drawn through fredericksburg and
the mountains near Staunton. Betsy
Bell and Mary Gray are probably
names from the ballad"
DR. Montgomery recited a number of
ballads found in Virginia. giving first
the original and then the Virginia
and called attention to Instances
where words, losing their significance
under changed conditions. have been
replaced by others OF similar sound
but with local Significance. Among
those which he recited were Lord
Randall or Lord Rolns.' found recently
in F!uvanna County: Fair Margaret
and Sweet William" versions of which
have been discovered i'm Mathews AL
bemarie and Campbell Counties: The
maid freed from the gallows" or the
HanEman's Tree in Pulaski and 9th r
counties: Barbara Allen" found in a
large number of cosntics. and "Sir
Hugh" or tho Jews daughter" which
becape changed in Virginia TO the
Dukes daughter" found in Rockbridge
Mrs. Henry Aylett Tompson presided
and introduced the speaker.

FAME IN A FEW WORDS.
Authors Who Are Now Known Only
by a Single Work or Passage.


Philip James Bailey wrote "Festus"
when he was twenty-three and lived
to be eighty-siX without adding appre.
Gladly to his early laurels. His 'Fes
tus' was compared by enthusiastic ad-
mirers to the works of Shakespeare
and Goethe. No one reads "Festus"
now, but its memory survives in one
familiar quotation, a one time fayorite
for use In autograph albums:
We live in deeds. not years; in thoughts,
not breaths;
In feelings, not In figures on dial.
We should count time By heart throbs.
He most lives
Who thinks most, feels the noblcst. acts
the best.
Bailey Is very far from being the
only author to live in mems minds by
virtue of a single line, stanZa or pas
sage. 1t is narrow margin by which
to escape oblivion, but 1t serves. True.
1t is not the writer himself that Is re.
membered, but as long as some spark
from his brain still glimmers he is not
totally dead. 1t may be a line from a
song. Meet me by moonlight alone"
and Don't you remember sweet Alice.
Ben Bolt?" are repeated as catchwords
by thousands who never heard of J.
Augustus Wade or Thomas Dunn Eng,
fish. Very often, however, the lines
that survive are of high literary value.
Theodore O'Hara. soldier of fortune
wrote:
On flames eternal camping ground
Their silent tents are spread,
And glory guards with solemn round
The bivouac of the dead.
By these four lines he won for him
self admission to the eternal camping
ground of poetry.
William Knox, a Scotch versiiier
Q7S9-1S25), owes his fragmentary sur.
vival not so much to any great poetic
merit in his mortuary couplets as to
