CHANGING HABITS

If we are slaves of our habits, we
are willing to sacrifice a great deal
to our masters. We are willing to
let the women and children of France
and the men who are fighting for us
GO hungry rather than break the
bends of our habits. We are willing
to go on eating bread rather than
treat our well-established habits un-
kindly. We would rather satisfy our
customary observance of toast for
breakfast, bread for lunch, hot rolls
for dinner, then contribute the am
munition of wheat to our army and
cur associates in this war.
II we care nothing at all fer the
superficial habits of our peace-time
customs and everything for the win.
ming of this war, then we. are going
to make every effort of which our
bodies and our minds are capable to
help win it. We are going to face
the issue with honesty. We are going
TO consider our habits the least pre-
cious Of all the things which we will
sacrifice in our great emergency. We
are going to look at the true value
o. things. We are going to put vic
tory above the joy of eating pies,
cakes, pastries and wheat breads.
We shall help or hinder the win
ming of this war by the way we de
fer to or conquer our habits.

WHAT CAN YOU DO!

How do we liver writes woman
IN Belgium. You can not form any
idea. Butter sells at So pound. Po-
tatoes at $40 a sack. These are not
exceptions. They are only examples.
Our hearts break in contemplating all
the misery that we see about Us; but
we are proud nevertheless, to prove
that we can endure it all without hes ;
itating or wavering. We have too
much to die, too little to live. We are
becoming skeletons, but hope sus-
tains."
This hope is America. From the
moment when we first heard Of brave
little Belgium's sacrifice, we opened
UP our hearts and pocketbooks e
her. American money, American
clothes, and American food have
helped her. We are Belgium's hope
and we cannot fail her.
Perhaps circumstances prevent you
from going as far as your heart would
like in giving money or clothes to this
heroic little nation who sacrificed
herself rather than let the Hun 60
farther in his wild onrush on civili-
cation. But no matter what your cir
lcumstances are, you can give Belgium
bread, which is, after all, her most
vital need, by eating more potatoes
and less bread yourself.
Potatoes are plentiful, cheap and a
satisfactory substitute for bread from
every standpoint. One medium-sizeo
potato is about equal in nourishmen,
to one large slice of wheat bread; so
by having the following Potato Fish
loaf, for instance, you can satisfy all
hungering for bread and at the samt
time give your body as much nourish
ment as if you had eaten pure whea
bread with your meal:

went to the registration desk and
had his card filled out.

He gave his occupation as a
farmer, with II years Of experience
as farm laborer. He said the only
thing that would prevent him from
helping win the war by agricultural
work for sustained period was old
age.
He signifed that he was wiling to
90 harvest work, haying, threshing, and
corn husking and that he had no
objections whatever to being called.
Mr.. Alden was resident Of Alden.
