Quite apart from our navy, which
has prevented an. German ship from
appearing on the ocean for the last
Is months, are the men in the air. Can
you conceive a man going through that
hellish life. $4,000 feet up. clothed in
electrically heated clothes and supplied
with oxygen to enable him to breathe
can you imagine him doing that on half
rations?
Can you imagine the boys in the
trenches surviving week If we had to
cut down their pork and beans and
the various things they have to eat?
And can you imagine the men and
women working In the factories and
mines, here and In Great Britain, going
short? These are some of the reasons
to which we in Great Britain attach
such enormous Importance in the con-
troll of the food Of the people.
The same considerations operate In
the United States to lead people to
save food that our soldiers. sailors,
aviators, fighting forces over there,
may have food.

OpportunitIeS.

In our individual life there come
opportunities, which we may miss be-
cause we have such false standards by
which we Judge things. We wait for

makes big splash in the world. Or,
when the trial comes we shrink from
It through false modesty, saying to
ourselves that some other more worthy
instrument should be chosen. If our
general attitude were right, we would
see the meaning Of all that Is called
