THE FOOD CRISIS
Statement by Charles LathrOp Pack.
President National Emergency
Food Garden Commission, Mary
land Bldg, Washington, D. G.

The work of the National Emer-
gency Food Garden Commission aims
to assist in making food more plentl-
fuI in villapes, towns and cities.
There are great many associations
md clubs throughout the country IN
tcrcsac;; iii school gardens, nome gar
dens. backyard gardens, vacant lou
gardens, flower gardens, etc.
We believe that this year all these
associations and great many other
people should plant food gardens to
greater extent than ever before;
and flowers should in many cases
make way for vegetables.
The National Emergency Food Car
den Commission is undertaking to
intensity this sort of planting by
using IN large way the machinery
that already exists, by giving greater
publicity and efficiency to the move
mcnt and by coordinating in the work
The ArIcricanization of our coun-
try is proceeding at swift rate and
With the utmost thoroughness. A
war spirit is developing that looks to
a world cleaned of what we no"
know to be entirely evil. The ne"
patriotism is cosmopolitan for it has
found out that wickedness in power
in Europe is at our doors and within
our homes, both as a poison OF Tho
soul and as Il robbery OF life through
a price confiscation of life's ncccssl
ties. Let US fight this evil.
Patriotic words are empty air.
jPatriotc acts alone will help. Plant
a food garden and do your part TO-
wards the economic victory. = .
We expect to induce more than ont
million young people, women :: aInee
elderly men this year to plant foot
garden who have not done so DE
fore. This alone should add much
; more than two hundred and fifty
million dollars to the food value O.
this seasons crop. Those who have

breaches Against War With Germany
and Opposes Consumption.

New York, April 1O.-'I would
rather be right with Jesus Christ than
with Woodrow Wilson, said Rev. F
C. Doan, pastor Of the Unitarian
Universalist Church, of Summit, N
j., in a sermon. He also said he was
against war with Germany and would
oppose CONSUMPTION.
Yesterday man said to be United
States Secret Service agent visited the
minister. They were closeted for an
hour. Both refused to discuss the
nature of their meeting.
Trustees of the church will meet
this week to consider asking Mr..
Doan's resignation.

There were twelve couples from

MAYOR PIERPONT HAS
MADE SPLENDID RECORD

SAVANNAH, Ga, Oct. 20-Mayor
Pierpont closed his second year as
the head of the municipal government
this week. 1t was on October Is,
1915, that he was elected by council
and took the oath Of office. For some
months before that he had been act
ing mayor, from time to time, and,
accordingly, had had a grasp on mu
nlcipal affairs when he assumed
charge. He still has fifteen months
to serve before the expiration of the
four years term Whether he will
consent to be a candidate for another
term is not determinable, his friends
insist, until the time for nominations
come.
above all things" said the mayor
yesterday in discussing the opera
tions of the municipal government
during the last twenty-four months,
Il realize that Savannah is a much
cleaner city than it was two years
ago, a better city to live in because
OF the lessening of evils that adverse
ly affected life here When $50 bar
rooms are driven from a community
and it is cleansed in a large degree
from the misery, suffering, vice, cor
ruption and crime that inevitably flow
from such places, then that communi-
ty has taken great onward and up
ward step in its social and political
life and has been lifted to a higher
plane of existence If nothing else is
said to the credit of this adninitra-
ton than that it stood steadfast 70.

would feel that its services to Savan-
nah had not been in vain. Violations
OF the law still continue, as all laws
are violated, but, with fifteen months
yet before the administration in
which it will steadfastly pursue the
same policy, feel satisfied that when
its term of office expires Savannah
will be city almost free of the liqpor

Defective Eyesight in Children.


In the recent examination of school
children in the High and Grammar
schools of Americas, sixty-two of the
$50 examined were found to have eye
sight defects which are serious enough
to require corrections. This per-
centage is much lower than that found
at most other places where this work
has been done In New York city 80
per cent of school children were found
to be suffering from various kinds
of ocular defects serious enough to
require corrections. Of 100000 pupils
examined in the schools of Massa-
husetts, 81 900 had defective eye-sight.
In the school of Berkeley, California,
II per cent were found with visual
defects Serious enough to need correc-
ton These comparisons and figures
are given in order to show that the
figures for Americas are very con-
sentative. Parents who receive no
tees can be assured that the defect
exists Examinations were carefully
made.
Defects of vision increase as one
passes from the examination of the
lower to the higher grades. Most
defective eyes were found in the high
er grades
The defects most commonly found
are near sight, far sight, astigmatism,
cross eyes, infiamed eyes and granu-
lated lids
Eye strain results from various
kinds of defective sight and carries
with it sooner or later conditions
which may seriously affect the nerv-
Gus system. Many case of nervous
prostration has come to an individual
in later life from such uncorrecta1
faults of vision
Poor vision not only makes the ac-
quirement of an education work OF
great difficulty, but reacts upon the
health and ambition of the child in
the school and reduces his learning
power in later life.
In a recent visit to Cornell univer-
sity New York, l noticer that every
entering student is given a thorough
physical examination They realize
the fact that education means more
than simply filling the head with
lot of uncIassifed facts. Education
should mean systematical develop
Eent physically, mentally and morlly-
If the physical side is neglected the
mental and moral will surely suffer.
