WHAT Does II Meanp

What does all this talk Of food
conservation mean? To a Fulton
county family with a good gar
den or farm, and with access to
the abundance of food raised in
the County, the necessity for
economy is not perceptible.
Why? Because we havs.so long
accustomed ourselves to plenty
and to let balance go to waste
that it seems strange that a food
scare should confront others.
1t is this going to waste that
is attracting the attention of
those whose duty it will be to
feed our armies and those of our
allies for -maybe-several years.
In older countries fruit and veg
etables are not permitted to rot
on the ground because of no sale
for them. America has not yet
reached the state of congested
foreign countries when waste
had to be stopped hundreds of
years ago. But we are entering
that state and new demands
have FASTENED the necessity for
the saving of all food if two
thirds of our population are to
be fed at reasonable cost. Amer
lea will have to feed half the
world next year-and the next.
No farmer should buy a single
can of fruit or vegetable until the
war is over. He should have his
own home product stored for use
so that factory goods will be
spared for those less fortunate.
The lady who gave the canning
demonstration in Fulton county
last week did not have so much
in mind the teaching of methods
of food preservation, but her err
rand was largely to awaken in
our people a sense of patriot duty
to stop buying factory goods and
to encourage home canning and
preserving.
Why are Americans asked to
reduce on the use of wheat flour
and to use more corn? 1t is be-
cause our foreign allies do not
know the use of corn on the ia
BILE in the form Of puddings,
bread, mullins, &c. They must
have wheat, and as our armies
will soon be fighting side by side
with the French and English,
their bread must be Of wheat
too.

the profusion of fall flowers are
in bloom.

not whether you personally may

can not afford to have any food
wasted by anybody.
Not another drop of whiskey

eminent may be of use in our
secondary schools may be ques-
toned, tho it works admirably
in college. Still there is no
doubt in the minds of some edu-
Gators of its success in the hands
Of a tactful teacher even in our
elementary school.
Political duty can be changed
to Patriotism by fostering of love
for Love of Country,
There is so much patriotism in
endeavoring to elect competent
man to be school director as in
choosing the president of the
United States
The man who lays all business
aside that he may go to the polls
and vote is a patriot, just as
much as he who shoulders his
gun and faces the enemy of his
country's flag.
Thru teaching of these facts,
children should be brought to see
that obedience at home, and in
school lead them to become law
abiding citizens, True patriot
ism can be best taught by a
personal appeal to those qualities
which ought to characterize A.
merican citizenship.
Children should very early be
taught to be proud of the land,
the nation. the city, the location
in which they live. Thus geo.
graphy instruction may become a
lesson in patriotism. They may
be made to understand their own
nationality and be made acquaint
ed with its own resources, growth
and possibilities. In history they
may be made to understand what
has been done for them by pion.'
GERS, adventures, settlers, state
men and heroes, and thru them
they are enabled to enter into a
precious heritage.
They come to understand how
governments, national and local
are administered: and what is
actually being done under the
leadership of legislators in ma
tional and state councils, in city
halls. and in their own town
meetings.

As years increase We notice the

and when it lie made plain that @

Aristotle long ago defined man
as a political animal. The great
philosopher meant man is By AZ
ture a political being.
Almost as far back as we can
trace human history we find man
existing not only in groups but
under some form of political or
fanization, which in its highest
form we call the State. The SUI
preme end for which a state ex-
lists, is, for the welfare OF its
people. And thru its laws, pro-
hibitory and mandatory it proves
TO be a tremendous moralizing
force, and anything that can be
done to promote its highest in-
terest should be done.
The public schools are in Q
measure training schools for citi-
zenship. And as they are sup
ported by the public. their prim.
airy aim should be training for
good citizenship.
And in our public schools is
where individuals should be in
structed in those virtues which
make for the public That right
eousness which exalteth q ma.
tion." Any school which fails
to realize it's duty in this regard,
fails in one of its most funda-
mental obligations.
What then are these virtues?
and how can we best instill them
in the pupil?
The foundation virtue on which
all discipline is based, whether
home or in school, domestic, aca-
demic, or political, is obedience.
And the degree to which it is
employed rests the success or
failure of all organizations
In early childhood the only
basis of obedience is authority.
