Chief among those of the eastern

Pointe aux Barques."
IL Was Royal Trip
The whole trip to the Illinois met
ropolis was educational besides be-
ing full of pleasure. II showed that
big men are broad in their views and
plans and that big institutions are
made possible by cooperation. The
hosts were lavish at all times, giving
their guests the fat of the land and
according them the best positions at
all entertainment places.
Just before starting on the trip the
Valley City Milling company Of
Grand Rapids gave each tourist a
badge which entitled the wearer to
GO anywhere in trains, hotels, steam
ers, etc. They were in keeping with
the day, patriotic, a small celluoid
flag attached to a blue ribbon with
lettering in gold.
President Ernest B. Blett and Sec
rotary Treasurer Mrs. K. C. Apsey of
Grand Rapids, had charge of the
tour, assisted by the executive COM
mittee of newspaper men. Every lit
tie detail was worked out in advance,
so the program of three days was
pulled off with as much system and
regularity as the ticking of clock.

Be a Thrift Woman.

Be a loyal Wolverine and talk,
study, and practice thrift. Be proud
to be known as a thrifty woman.
shake saving, rather than spending
your social standard"
Tackle your job as a patriotic
duty. The world needs food. Are
you using more than you need? Are
you wasting any food by throwing
away left-overs? Do your store
your food in such way that it new
er spells? Are yon using some
cheap substitutes Tor expensive
foods? Do you ever waste food by
careless cooking?
Help train yourself. Tell others
of your successes in thrift. Teach
III, sc who know less than you Go.
Take food saving seriously: Enlist
ct once in the army for food cor ser
Nation.
Resolve to save en- food experl;-
lures: by using less meat and che. per
Gus, and more milk cheese, fish ard
ruts in place of meats; by using
more cereals, especially corn products,
oatmeal and rice; Ivy using some
dried fruits; by using the cheaper
vegetables such as 1urnips, carrots
and greens; by omltting some lux
urIcs.
Inquire diligently as to the best
and wisest ways of economiZing. Do
not, for example, if you omit meat on
some days, expect starch to replace it.
Use milk, cheese, beans or peas, eggs,
or fish.
Free yourself from food prejudice.
Sirloin steak may taste good, but it
must be as cheap as 10 cents a pound
if it is to supply bodybuilding food
(protein) as cheaply as milk at cents
a quart. One quart of milk builds as
much body tissue as ounces of sir
loin steak. Cease to say don't like"
or "can't eat"
Try definitely to eliminate waste.
Milk: Do you use the last quarter
cup? Do you use buttermilk, sour
milk, and skinned milk? Do you
make cottage cheese out of leftover
milk?
Fats: Do you save every bit of
bacon fat, beef fat and other fats F?
Do you know how to use mutton fat?
Breadstuffs: Do you store cereals
and -four so that insects cannot get
into them? Do you use leftover
crusts and stale bread? Is your
bread always good? If not, do you
know why not? Do you scrape out
your mixing bowls thoroughly?
Fruits: Do you know how to store
them? Do you buy more than you
care to use so that some wither or
spoil? Do you throw away the water
in which they are cooked instead of
using it for soups? Do you let cooked
left-overs spoil? Do you pare care
fully so as not to waste? Do you
know how to can vegetables?
Meats: Do you store carefully to
prevent spelling? Do you ever over
sock meat and so waste it by making
it inedible? Do yous use more than
you need? Do you save and use all
trimmings, bones and fat? If your
family numbers five( do you buy 3
quarts of milk before you buy pound
of meat?
