have meatless Tuesdays and Fridays, wheatless
Wednesdays, porkless Saturdays and an absolute
abandonment of the use of bacon.
Horace Ellis state superintendent of public
instruction, has endorsed the innovation. Promi-
nent school men in the state are cooperating.
We believe the surest and best way of teach
ing food conservation to the American people is
through the schools Children will learn price
less lessons of food economy that will be reflected
in their careers when they become adults. They
will bring home the reasons for conservation to
many parents who have not been reached by the
press or influenced by the appeals of patriotic
men and women.
The example of child in refusing to eat pro-
hibited food on days set apart for its conserva-
ton will be spur melting parents to quit the
practice and a lesson in general food economy.
The conservation propaganda of the last six
months will be reflected in the men and women
of the next generation. The lessons inculcated
during the war period will change the whole
method of our living. Extravagant and waste

Teachers can do patriotic service by instructing
the boys and girls how they may live comfortably
and happily without wasting and squandering. 1t
is gratifying to note that the school authorities
are not overlooking the vital principles involved
in the food conservation problem.

Lieutenant Williams wears two

in which the Germans were all killed

at the hips. Both arms were wounded
and a bayonet was thrust through his

Bread and Newspapers
Oliver Wendell Holmes.

Oliver Wendell Holmes.
We must have something to eat and the pa
pers to read. Everything else we can give up. IT
we live in small way, there are at least new
dresses and bonnets and everyday luxuries which
we can dispense with. If the young zouave OF the
family looks smart in his new uniform, its re-
spectacle head is content, though he himself grow
seedy as car-away -umbel late in the season. He
will cheerfuly calm the perturbed nap of his old
beaver by patient brushing in place of buying a
new one, if only the lieutenant's jaunty cap is
what it should be. We all take pride in shar-
ing the epidemic economy of the time. Only
bread and the newspaper we must have, whatever
else we do without.
What an abundance of truth in the sage's
opinion!
Bread and newspapers are the necessities of
life. We are hungry if we miss them We starve
physically and Intellectually, if they are denied
us permanently. Our system Graves for both of
them. We may almost say that our lives depend
upon them.
We do not appreciate how newspapers contri-
butte to our happiness until they fail to reach US
for a few days. Then we discover that we cannot
get along without them. Robinson Crusoe was not
cut off from the world more effectively than the
modern man is if he cannot buy his newspaper.
The newspaper has such hold on us that we
cannot go to bed until we have read the events of
the last twenty -four hours If our paper is late
in arriving we telephone to the office to find out
the cause of the delay.
In republic that guarantees a free and an
uninspired press. newspaper is prime neces-
sity. 1t is the medium by which our habits of
thought and our opinions are formed. 1t gives
us the facts on which we base our opposition to
or our support Of men and issues. That is one
reason why the American people opposed cen
sorship law that would have permitted officials
in Washington to control the press.
The government itself depends upon the news
papers for the publication of information neces-
sary for the national existence. The food cam
paign, the Red Cross propaganda and the selec-
tive CONSUMPTION law, were given such generous
and constructive publicity by the press that their
success was assured. Facts and information of
paramount Importance to national interest
are given to the press by the government for dis
semnation throughout the country. Officials
know that people read the newspapers, that they
are necessities of life, that hundred million
people can be reached every day. Hence, they
use this medium to scatter information which
otherwise would not reach the masses for weeks
and weeks.
