this meat-waste route.
But-every household doesn't waste
an ounce Of meat or fat every day?
Very weu-make it one out Of a hun.
dred families, but keep in mind that
all meat allowed to spoil and all meat
and fat rendered inedible by improper
cooking, scorching or burning must
be counted as waste. Make it an
ounce every other day or one a
month. Such waste still would be
uncomfortable, when meat is scarce and
when fat is of such vital food import
ance to many nations.
Waste of meat or fat is inexcusable.
Every bit of lean meat can be used in
soups, stews, or in combination wit,
cereals; every spoonful of fat can be
employed In cookery; every bit of
drippings and gravy can be saved 81
easily and used to add flavor ana
nourishment to other dishes.

WASHINGTON, D. c., June 11.-An
ounce Of edible meat-lean meat, fat
and lean, suet or fat trimmed from,
steak, chop, or reast-seems hardly
worth saving.
Many households take just this view
of the matter-do not trouble to put
such an insignificant scrap into the
Ice box or soup pot-do not bother to
save for cookery spoonful or two OF
adrippiugs or tiny bit of suet or fat.
3 Yet IL every one of our 10000, 900
American families on the average
wastes each day only one ounce OF
edible meat or fat, it means a daily
waste of 125o,000 pounds of animal
food-456,0 100000 pounds of valuable
animal food a year.
At average dressed weights, it would
take the gross weight of over 875, 600
steers, or over 100000 hogs-bones
and ALTO provide this weight Of
meat or fat for each garbage pail or
kitchen sink. IL the bones and
butchers waste are eliminated, these
figures would be increased to 1,150, 900
cattle and 100000 hogs.
Or, again, If the waste were distrib-

WOMEN ARE BLAMED
FOR FOOD SCARCITY

NEW YORK, N. Y.-The American
woman Is in a large measure respon-
sible for the high price and scarcity
of food, James w. Gerard, former am
bassador to Germany, asserted in an
address before the New York Acade-
my of Medicine at a meeting called
to discuss the food supply In war.
We should make it fashionable for
women to 60 to market and buy for
the family said Mr.. Gerard. The
credit system and the use Of the tele-
phone Is responsible for the ever In
creasing cost Of food TO the con-

WARNING TO FISHERMEN

The Maryland State Conservation
Commission has sent out bulletin to
the fishermen of the State which says:
The State is now Matching fish at
great expense in order to restock the
waters and increase the food supply, as
we'll as to improve the fisherman's op-
portunities.
''In face of this some thoughtless
fishermen continue the destruction of
small fish by culling their catch where
and in such manner as to prevent the
return of the return of the small fish to
the waters alive.
mot only is this wanton destruction
causing damage to the fishermen's own
interests, but it is contrary to the ur-
gent demand for conserving and in
creasing all food supplies now being
urged by the President of the United
States, and it is useless for the State to
attempt to hatch fish to replenish such
willful waste.
"The Commission therefore calls upon
all fishermen to help conserve the fish
supply, to cooperate in securing an OBJ
servance Of this among their neighbors
and to report all willful violators.
: ''The law prescribes penalty of $25

RIOT to go so far back as 490 B. c.
~ when NIiltiades and his handful of
heroic Greeks saved Grecian and later
civilizations from the Persian barbaric
inundation, Europe and the world have
since been thrice saved from conquests
which would have enthroned barbariSm
upon the ruins of civilization
1st, in 45l, when Aetius at Chalons,
France. defeated the savage Huns under
Ati4a, ''The Scourge of God;" I'd, in
732 when Charles Martel, at Tours,
France, overthrow the Saracens, and
saved Christian Europe from Moslem
barbarism; Sd, in 1914, at the Marne,
France, when the onrushing tide of Ger
many's Huns was turned back to meet
thereafter final and utter overthrow.
1t is a noteworthy fact that all of
these decisive battles in the worlds his
tory, save that of the Greeks, were
fought on the soil of France.
But this great victory at the Marne,
chiefly Frances, was made possible by
three other Nations, Belgium, England,
and America That is, Germany's now
assured defeat will have been due to
these three Nations, acting at three
successive stages of the great conflict.
First, the heroic Belgians at fearful
cost, for three weeks kept back Ger
mahyE noats until the French had time
to gather and arm, and with some help
of the English, win at the Marne.
Second, year and half after the
Marne, England's millions came to the
rescue of the brave and decimated armies
of France, and with them are now driv-
ing the Teutonic barbarians pelImell
back into their lair Now, finally, when
Germany's deadly submarine threatens
the marine of all Europe with extinc-
ton, England with famine and the Allies
with disaster for want of food and war
munitions, America, stepping into "the
deadly and imminent BREACH with
ships, supplies and men is about to make
secure all these earlier victories.
So it is proper to say that Belgium
first saved modern civilization from
German barbarism; that France saved
it next, then England, and finally,
America

best new National song. Contest
started by N. A. and nine other
papers. "-Norh american.
TT is very unfortunate that the Star
Spangled Banner, our officially rec
ognized National song, is both harsh in
meter and hard to sing. Tho filled with
noble sentiments Of burning patriotism,
and conceived in lofty poesy, it is lack
ing in those flowing numbers that make
song at once easy to commit to mem
ory and easy to sing.
Unfortunately, too, the tune to which
it is set, an old English air, ''Anacreon
in Heaven" is very hard to sing, start
ing as it does one and half ledger lines
below the treble clef that is, 81 below
on the scale of c, and running up to ia,
twelve notes in all, or one octave and
half, a compass beyond the ordinary
voice.
But the historic association of its
composing, coupled with the dignity
and patriotic ardor, not to say piety, of
its language, have won for it an estab-
lshed position as our National air, and
no later rival has been able so far to
displace it, and none, probably ever
will.
This prize offer will certainly fail, for
no great National song, in fact, little or
no great poetry of any sort, ever had
its birth in this mercenary, commercial
way.
Most of such national airs, like our
own have been associated with some
great event or occasion in the Nation 8
history that has broken up the poetical
deeps in the soul Of the author, and the
.fierv words of their own free will have
rushed forth, the poets utterances
goicing the sentiments Of millions of
aroused patriot hearts.

in 1892 Of French Revolutionists, and in
burst of enthusiasm singing for.his
compatriots his now worldwide famous
song of liberty known as the Marseil-
laise. This universal freedom song,
which is sung in almost every language
in the world, sprang hot and glowing
from the soul of this French captain Of
engineers when his Nation was in the
throes of new birth of liberty.
This truth finds another illustration in
the circumstances under which Mrs.
Julia Ward Howe composed her immor
tai "Battle Hymn of The Republic" a
noble war song perfect in rhythm,
beautiful in language and sublime in
sentiment.
One evening, early in the Civil War,
when the very air Of the North, was
vibrant with patriotic ardor, her train
as it neared Washington, passed large
military camp, and then and there Tin
the watch fires of a hundred circling
camps that great soul of hers caught
fire and like Sheley's skylark poured
forth Sin strains of unprecedented art
this magnificent Battle Hymn Of patri-
otism, religious ardor and poetry tha t
has immortalized her name.
Every school boy knows the genesis
of the Star Spangled Banner. It's au-
thor. Francis Scott Key was prisoner
in the hold of British warship on that
momentous September night in 1914
anu witnessed the bombardment Of Fort
McHenry.
''And the rockets red glare, the
bombs bursting in air gave proof
thru the night that our flag was
still there
the flag he had $50 proudly hailed a
the twilight's last cleaning And q
he saw its "broad stripes and fright
stars catch the CLEAN Of the morn
ing's first BEAM" his heart, fired
with whole scene, found expression
in the graphic, imperishable verse Of
''The Star Spangled Banner" a
song whose patriot glow for over a
century has stirred the hearts Of his
countrymen, and will thus stir the
hearts of unborn millions, and whose
composition will forever keep his
name bright in Fames pantheon.
AS showing its off-hand compositi on,
it is said, that like Lincoln's famous
Gettysburg Grafton, Keys ode was
written on the back Of an old envelope.
SO will it ever be. There are many things
money cannot buy-a great National
air is one of them It's birth must be
coeval with that of some mighty event
irresstably appealing to the deepest
sentiments of the patriot soul composing
it. 1t is idle to think that Patriotism
and Poetry, two of the divinest emotions
that can move the human soul, are to be
hailed into being at the vulgar chink Of
the dollar
