HOW TO ADDRESS SOLDIERS
Post Office Department Advises
Utmost Care

Persons who send mail to men,
Ibers of the ExpeditiOnary Forces
are particularly requested, in a
statement issued by the Post Of
fee Department, to use ink only
| in writing the addresses. Every
piece of mail matter should also
bear the name and address of the
sender.
Heavy paper, canvass, or cloth
should be used for wrapping pack
ages. When canvas or cloth is
used the address should be writ
ten on a shipping tag, with the
name and address of the sender
ON the reverse side.
Given names should be written
in full, instead Of initials. The IL
tie of the addressee and the full
name of the unit or organization
to which he is assigned should be
added, it being sufficient in the
way of further address to use the
words American Expeditionary
Forces. Official Bulletin.
The author of the above should
know that nobody knows what a
military "unit" is, and so we Will
add:
In the address, give branch of
service, whether field artillery, en-
gineers oT infantry; number of the
regiment and number of the conn
pany of the regiment to which the

Careful About Salt You Buy

The Bureau of Chemistry, u
nited States Department of Agri-
culture, warns consumers against
buying table salt from peddlers or
other persons whose reliability is
not established. Salt recently Of
fered by a peddler in Washington
was found to contain serious a.
mounts of arsenic. The opinion is
expressed that the salt possibly
was recovered from refriger-
ating plant or may have been the
sweepings from a warehouse. 9th
er low-grade or by-product salt
contains sufficient barium chloride
to be poisonous and dangerous if
used in food. Such salt, under the
Food and Drugs Act, must be la
beled or invoiced "Not for food
purposes. /" Irresponsible dealers,
however, may offer it for sale for
human consumption. Such sale is,
of course, in violation of State or
Federal laws, and renders the
dealer, if caught, liable to prose-
cution. The attention of the pub
lie is called to the need of great
care in the purchase of low grade
food products offered at bargain
prices.

PRACTICE SELF-CONTROL

COLUMBUS. Ohio, Feb. 12. The Ohio War Board says today;
 Today marks the beginning of the season of Lent good time for everybody to give up eXtravagant habits of eating and to practice self control in eating.
 Every person is expected to eat sufficient amount of food to maintain health and strength, but there are many who are eating more than is necessary.
 Belgium today is existing on half rations, depending almost entirely on the Commission for Relief of Belgium for their food.
 Women and children in France have given up a part of their daily ration in order that their men who must have strength for the work in the factories and the mines and the men in the trenches may be fed. Little children are starving in Armenia.
 All of the countries of our allies and the neutral cOun- tries look to America for food.
 Each pound of food saved by each American citizen is pound given to the support of our armies, the allies and the friendly neutrals.
 Herbert Hoover says: Now is the hour of our testing. Let us make it the hour of our victory; victory over the enemy of freedom"
