all morning nursing sore throat. Ted
Is n sufferer from severe attacks OF
quipsey and was doing hi best today
TO ward off one of these spells, that
usually lays him up for some time
when It does come.
Some sort of physical misfortune

uty Cantwell injured his knee and is
lLmping around surrounded by sui
phur and birthstone.

cieraymen in Washington have
asked Senator Jones to ask the pres
ident, through the senate. to ask the
British and French governments ito
forbid their people to sell or give
vine or beer to American soldiers"
With excellent common sense the
clergymen's federation also asks the
president to ask Great Britain and
France to go on the water wagan so
that our American grain sent abroad
may not be used to make beer for
foreigners"
The whole great problem OF win.
ming the war rests primarily on one
thing: The loyalty and sacrifice of
the American people in the matter of
food. II Is not a government re-
sponsibility. 1t is the responsibility OF
each individual. Each pound of food
saved by each American citizen Is a
pound given to the support OF our ar.
my, the allies and the friendly neu.
trails. Each pound wasted or eaten
unnecessarily Is pound withheld
from them. II Is a direct personal
obligation on the part OF each Of us
TO some one in Europe whom we are
bound to help.
