THOSE WHO DON'T BELONG"

We are using the larder of France
for a battle ground; that's why there
is twenty per cent of substitute in
wheat flour and the local beef supply
is temporarily restricted.
To eat more than your allotted
share Of meat, to insist upon old
fashioned white bread, is to take it
from a soldiers ration or his little
ones plate.
IL that knowledge can't govern a
captious appetite, nothing will.
This war has reached our hearts,
lightly touched our purses, and left
us with all reasonable comforts.
Thus far, the coal bin alone has
gone hungry.
Ostentation and extravaganza are
cruelty vulgar, while every spare coin
can do so much TO alleviate distress in
foreign lands.
Only the simplest entertainment is
good form at the moment.
You can tell the folks who "don't
belong" by their clothes and dinners.
Those who can most afford to be
regardless are always moderate.
