A CALL TO ARMS TO THE
WOMEN OF AMERICUS.

The bugle has sounded for you, Mrs.
American Housekeeper! Whether you
live on a farm or in city apartment.
in a cottage or avenue residence, I'M
Gle Sam is modifying you to do your
Bit
And this "bit" must be done imme>
diately. No three months in training
camp before you go to the front. But
now, today, Immediately, eveyr house
keeper in America is called to the
,colors.
On her banner are three words:
Serve By Saving!" Her ammunition
! is food Her uniform is a kitchen
apron.
This great patriotic task can never
be sbouldered by one group of women
working alone. Every housekeeper in
] America, no matter how large or small
her family or pocketbook, must COOP
erate-must mobilize.
4 Her campaign is not to ask her fam.
lily or community to starye themselves
but rather to teach them to eat less
meat, sugar, fat and wheat by substi-
tuting other foods that are equally
good, but that cannot be sent abroad.
OF course every woman will have her
own difficulties to overcome. Our SUP
ply of food depends so much on the To-
cality in which we live, What would
he extravagant for one to eat would be
the most economical food for another
Then, too-and this is the most per-
| picking problem of all-our Johns and
little Marys and Jacks are not the
same. Each household offers sepe-
rate problem
Your task of feeding your family ir
the most economical way will be great
~ lightened, however, if now, in a
moment Of leisure, you will map our
your campaign in the following way:
L. Try to discover and stop the
small wastes-those little leaks that
have formerly seemed too trivial to
bother about
Decide on the things that must be
done Immediately; for instance, the
preserving of any perishable fruits and
vegetables that may still be plentiful
and cheap,
| 3. Learn how to make delicious
dishes out of left-overs and serve as
far as possible food raised in Your
own locality. This will save transport
tation.
All this does not seem much for I'm
Gle Sam to ask of you, does it? And
yet every woman who does this cons
cientiously from day to day will be as
good soldier as any fighting man in
! e trenches.

All! Since you came and took your

have grown
In wild luxuriance there; and these

Their perfume all about. Your
smile has been,
Dear one, like olden wine, and life to

Is hedged about with Loves captivity.

The stronger chains you forge about

Are welcome, for they hold me close

Near to the holy place where you must

Take all my dreams of other years

And these upon the restless waters

I want but this: my servitude for you
Behold my lips are passioned for
your kiss.
I have known freedom, but how dull
now seem
Those years of liberty, before you
came
even knew the petted touch of

But these dissolve like some forgotten
dream
Before the glory which your love has
brought,
And these strong chains your little
hands have wrought.
