Local H~ousekeebers
Sign Food PLEDGE

J. r.. Carley, who is in charge OF
the Food Pledge campaign in his city,
has so far sent into headquarters at
Fargo more than 1000 pledge cards,
signed by housewives of his locality.
The campaign opened on Monday
morning. and the campaign for sign
ers Is being conducted through the
chillren Of the city schools.
Mr.. Carley supplied the instructors
in the city schools, the university and
the p3rochial schools with cards.
which were distributed to the students.
In families where the food pledge has
already been signed the children have
been instructed to take the card to
homes in the neighborhood where
there are no children. These are re-
turned to the teachers. and the sys-
tenn is working very Satisfactorily.
Several hundred of the pledge cards
which were sent out from the head
quarters were distributed among
church societies. clubs and guilds. and
through that channel q good many
signers were secured.
The food pledge does not attempt
to burden the signer with the doing
of impossible things, but merely asks
cooperation in every way possible
with the governments program Of
food co~nservationA Housekeepers
simply give their pledge to not be
wasteful in the buying. preparing or
serving of food, and also agree to OBJ

A young woman employed in a local
business establishment presented her
self at the Red Cross headquarters a
day or so ago. and said that she want
ed to learn to knit at once In ex-
PLANTATION Of her great haste, she said
that heretofore she had been devoting
her extra moments in the office to
crocheting, and her employer had no.
ticed this, and had told her there was
to be no more crocheting during Of
fee hours. but there va to be knit
ting for the Red Cross. IL there was
any spare time. She was instructed
to HE herself to headquarters. and to
stay there until she. learned to knit,
which she did.
This bit Of practical. patriotism
might be followed by other employ
ers. with real profit to the Red Cross
supplies for soldiers, because as every
woman knows. it is amazing what can
be accomplished in this pickup
work."
