Carolyn May did not hear this, but
disappeared after the fowls around
the corner of the wide, vine-draped
porch. The pleasant back yard was
full Of sunshine. On the gravel path
beyond the old well, with its long
sweep and bucket. half a hundred
chickens, some guineas and flock of
turkeys scuffied for grain which was
being thrown to them from an open
pan.
That pan was held in the plump

There Is not much to say of the war
on the Italian. Albanian and Greek
fronts. Small engagements are nu-
merous, but no decisive operations have
been started lately. In Albania the
retirement of the allied line for "a short
distance is explained by the necessity
Of preparing for winter by occupying
certain dominating heights. Austria
has not attempted anything important
In Italy, possibly because she is too
busy trying to settle her internal tr0u-
bleS, or because of the call on her for
troops to help out the sorely- pressed
Germans IN France. Several Austrian
divisions have been identified on the
west front. Meanwhile the Italian
airmen. aided by American flyers have
been doing lot of bombing of Aus
trian towns, railways and naval sta
lions.

Is 1t Too Much?

Some people use the wrong end
of their mental spyglass in looking
at the misery and suffering in
Europe, so that the hungry people
over there seem as remote and as
unreal as the Lilliputians looked to
Gulliver.
But, if some of these starving
mothers, hungry little children and
tired war-weary fathers of Europe
could come over here they would
not even have to ask us for food.
There is hardly a woman in America
but who on seeing them, would not
take as many as she could home
with her and give them such a meal
as they had not had for four long,
weary years of war.
There would be chicken or per-
haps u juicy roast with rich brown
gravy, creamy mashed potatoes, peas
and corn canned from your own
garden, a fruit salad made as only
you know how to make 1t, and last
of all, just to hear the "Ohs" and
Abs" of the children and see their
eyes shine, you would bring in a
chocolate layer cake with frosting
thick as candy"
You would feed these people not
once. but many times. AS often, in
TACT, as you had any food to give
them. You would count the cost
neither in labor nor money. You
would do 1t because you are human
being and a woman.
But all this is, of course, impos-
sible. You cannot see the starving
people of Europe, fiocking your
streets. You cannot take some of
them home and feed them at your
own table. Nor do they ask or expect
80 much.
How much'less is what they ask of
you in reality. No extra work in
preparing the food for
them or serving them. No extra ex-
pense to you. No giving. of your food
until you yourself have none.
All that these 30O,000.000 hungry
of Europe ask of you is that
for their sakes you will live as
simply as possible; that you will not
eat more than you really need. and
that no food In your household will
be wasted.
Is this asking too much?
