every family in Indiana almost over
night.
The first club in Indiana was
formed the other day near Rockport-
II will be known as United States
Food Club No. L. In territory it will
cover, for the present, about two
square miles Of Ohio township, IN
Spencer county, and the clubhouse
will be the S~ilverdale schoolhouse, IN
which the charter will be hung. The
first county president to be appointed
in the new movement is Mrs. Howard
s. Cottey, Of Kokomo, who will head
the clubs IN Howard county.
The food situaion changes, in some
of its phases, very rapidly, and the
food administration will often find it
necessary TO change its recommended
tons quickly. Just a few days ago
it was decided that il would be wise
to eliminate "porkless Saturday" and
the one-meatless-meal-a-day rule and
reduce the meat conservation pro-
gram to "meatless Tuesday" On &C
count of the success of the meat con-
servation program and because of GER
tain transportation conditions the
storehouses w0e becoming tempo
rarily overfilled with meat.
At the same time the wheat short
age was becoming more acute. So
the food administration said, virtu-
ally, Eat a little more meat and "a
still further on wheat" Some day
the word must be passed around again
to go back to a stricter program Of
meat saving. Through the food clubs
such hints may be given without loss
of time, and given in such a way as
to insure an immediate and universal
response.
The food administration has many
pamphlets, leaflets, receipts and con-
servation circulars TO pass out, and
all these will be distributed to mem
bers Of the food clubs.
At the monthly meetings, demon
~strations will be given of best ways to
prepare foods that are plentiful and
save foods thai are. scarce, neighbers
will exchange conservation receipts
and ideas, slackers will be dragged
out into the limelight, store keepers
and restaurant keepers who show "A
patriotic t~enaeacies will be discussed,
profteers viii get thk4Sa." paerfetic
gardens will BE-, encouraged; papers
from the national and state and
county food administrators win be
read, patriotic lecturers will speak, q
question box will be conducted, and
ways and means to further produc-
ton and conservation will be thrashed
out, The clubs may serve as a labor
exchange, and perhaps later, even as
a produce exchange. City and rural
clubs may cooperate in this respect.
A spirit of battle and Of standing
together will be put into every club.
Fight. with food" will be thu slogan.
Sackers will be lined up OF. scorched.
Gsrmany>will be out-G ermanied here
in effectiveness and solidarity Of err
~ganizatiOn.
Joining your neighborksod food
club is just n of the patriotic
things there are to do. it is true
(joining and pushing), but it is n
thing that you should positively not
neglect 10 do. For "foed will win the

of preventing the complete rout of
General Won Hutiers army which re-
treated from the Montdidier salient
early Saturday. Aviators report
heavy movements of troops and trans
port toward the east.
All the railroad lines leading out Of
Roye now are within easy cannon
range of Allied guns and French
troops are at Andechy, three miles to
the west and within less than four
miles from the southwest where they
have crossed the last barrier of hills.
Lasigny, between Roye and Noyon, is
within two and one-half miles of the
French on the west and south. 1t is
an important position. South of No
van the French are fighting their way
up the Disc and are within five miles
of the town.
Noyon is important not only in its
relation to the present battle line, but
to the German position eastward to-
ward Rheims and the enemy is fight
ing desperately to stay the French
advance toward it. The fall Of Noyon
undoubtedly would compel rear

Unofficially, the Allies have taken

vITALANO HELD
BY POLICE ON A
SERIOUS CHARGE
Accused Of Assault With In
tent to Kill His Wife July
"a Last in This City.

Frank Vftalan of Trumbull road
was arrested today by Detective Jack
Clarity and Matthew Kane on the
charge of assault with intent to kill
and is being held for appearance be-
fore the city court tomorrow fore
noon under bonds of $1,000.
The arrest of Vitalano followed his
return to Bridgeport from Utica, New
York, to which city he fed after he
had beaten his wife Annuzia almost to
death with q hammer July "a. By a
clever trick employed by the Bridge
port detective bureau the would-be
assassin was induced to return to this
city in hurry only to walk into the
arms of the detectives when he
emerged from his home this fore
noon.
According to information Vitolano
made a practice of beating his wife.
On the afternoon of July "a, it is said,
he dug hole in the yard and drag
cling his wife out to see it. told her
that it was her grave he had dug
and that he would proceed to beat her
DTaluS OUT VIII d IdluLltIs
This he started to do, but appar-
emily did not complete the operation,
but thinking that he had killed her
he fed from the house and left the
city. Mrs. Vitolano lowered between
life and death for days but finally the
surgeons expressed a hope that she
would live. Gradually she regained
strength until now she is out of dan
ger although still suffering from the
effects of the brutal and murderouE
assault
In her complaint Mrs Vitolano told
story of unprecedented cruelty OF
the part of her husband and beatingE
apparently were the order of the day
in her married life. She lived in con-
slant fear and dread OF her husband
who would club or beat her with any
weapon that came handy without
provocation. She was so terrified thai
she did not appeal to the police fol
protection until this last time wher
her condition was SO serious that the
authorities did not think she would
survive the terrible mauling with the
heavy hammer which her brutal hus-
band welded.
