Still Necessary to Conserve Food

Grocers are the latest to organize in
cooperation with the Federal Food
Administration of New Jersey, for the
intensive campaign of food saving soon
TO be launched throughout the country.
The grocers' organization will follow
out the system of decentralization in
vogue in all food administration activi-
ties. A represen tstive will be named
for each county and the latter will ap-
point local representatives for the lar
ger localities within his district.
The part which the grocer can play
in food saving is very important one.
AS outlined by State Administrator
Tyler, the grocers' committee will be
the connecting link between the food
administration and the grocery trade
in the conservation campaign.
The grocers have expressed desire
to do their part through their own or
ganization. officially recognized as a
which will operate through the chan
nels Of their own trade. The relation
with the food administration is recipro-
cal, as the food program contemplates
the necessity of a great food saving for
the coming year, If we are to win the
war. and on the top of the war pro-
grams to care for the millions of starv-
ing civilians who are being released as
our armies advance over reclaimed ter
ritory. The demands upon American
food supplies are therefore not only
greater than last year, but are increas-
ing with the success of the allied army,
thus requiring the patriotic considera-
tion of the American people.
Also, attention is called to the fact,
that although the peach season is over
the necessity for saving the pits Of
prunes and other fruits and nut shells
is just as great as ever.

Local Food Administrator.

The Soldiers and Sailors Club was
opened on Wednesday evening, and the
housewarming was an entire success.
About forty boys enjoyed the, hospital
ity of the club, and there were plenty
of pumpkin and apple pies, doughnuts
and coffee for all. Music and dancing
served to pass the evening pleasantly,
and the hostesses feel that the boys are
appreciative OF their efforts to establish
comfortable, well regulated and mod
erately priced quarters for their use
while on leave in Wildwood.
The committee desires to express its
appreciation to all who have contribu-
ted articles for the use of the club, and,
in particular of the fine response on the

over 100 pieces Of linen, besides other
useful articles. Mrs. Abe Konowitch
is the efficient head of this organiza-
ton.
