VOCATION EDUCATION
THEME AT DAY SESSION

Vocational education formed the
theme of DIR. Harry Clark of the
University of Tennessee at the In
stitute yesterday morning and proved
one of the most interesting lectures
so far given.
DIR. Clark opened his address with
a reference to his talk of the day
before, stating that he knew it was
crude for him to talk to them in
terms of dollars and cents again. but
that money was talking to them if
they would only get out of the rut.
"As life gorws more complex he
said, new professions are opening
for you, and if you will but take adj
vantage of them, new opportunities
will be given to you,
at is tragedy" he asserted, "for
fathers and mothers to force their
children into occupations where they
do not belong. We can't afford to
let girls and boys founder and waste
their lives. Vocational councillors are
what we need right here, and tell
you that the woman who qualities
for such position could have as fine
a place as any minister in this

PATRIOTIC PEOPLE
EATING LITTLE BEEF
Public Eating Places Restricted and
HousehoIders are Expected to
Restrict Themselves.

Colunbia.-Beefstea has disap
peared from the menus and bills OF
fare of hotels, restaurants and public
eating places throughout South Caro-
lima. Roast beef has likewise been
eliminated. These meats are serv.
ed only lay week, under order Of the
Food Administration, and in many
public eating places beef is not serv-
ed at all. Patriotic people through
out the state are expected by the
Food Administration to voluntarily
restrict themselves in the consump-
tion of beef and to observe the re-
strictions as rigidly on their home ta-
bles as the rule is being enforced in
public eating places. The demand for
beef for the army and the allied arm
les and their civil population for this
summer makes 1t necessary that the
people who stay at home practically
give IN beef By-products of beef. such
as oX-tails, livars. tongues. sweet.
breads. hearts, kidneys, brains and
tripe ma be served at any time. as
the regulations Go not apply to these.

FARMERS NAY USE
HOME IE|-GR0'HH WHEAT
Food Administration Order Permits
the Grinding of Wheat on Liberal
Basis, But Continued Use of Wheat
Substitutes is important Require.
ment.

Columbia. The thirty day rule,
which provided that farmers could
have ground into -four for their own
use no more home grown wheat than
would be required for their families
for a period OF thirty days, has been
suspended by the Food Administration
and regulations governing the grind
ing of whea thave been issued.
Under the new regulations, farm
ers are permitted to draw their year S
supply Of -four from the mill or in ex-
change for their own wheat, but for
the present they must draw only for
a three months period, or from the
time of grinding to October l. They
cannot draw this from mills in excess
of twelve pounds of -four per person
per month for use OF their households
and tenants, and they should continue
in respect to the use Of substitutes on
the present basis until such time as
the general substitute program for the
whole country shall be changed. This
means simply that farmers who have
grown their own wheat are expected
to use wheat substitutes, with wheat
-four. the same az heretofore, on the
fifty-ffty basis.
The mills of South Carolina are BE-
ing notified by the Food Administra'
tion of the new regulations.
Mills must not grind for farmers
more than enough wheat to supply the
farmers and their families and ten.
ants from the date of grinding to Octo-
Der 1. The amount ground should be
estimated upon the basis Of twelve
pounds per person per month.
Until the new rules in regard to
wheat substitutes are enacted. mills
must not deliver any -four to farmers
unless they sign the pledge card,
agreeing to use one pound OF flour
substitutes for every pound Of -four
used.
Bakers, retailers and the general
public are not released from the regu-
lar program, already announced by
this new regulation, which applies
only to farmers who have grown their
own wheat.

CONSERVE SUGAR
EVEN IN PRESERVING
Rich Preserves and JelIies Should Not
Be Attempted-Sugar for Canning
and Preserving 10 Limited.

Columbia.-Because Of the acute
ness of the shortage in sugar, house
keepers are urged by the Food Admin
istration, as far as it is practical to
preserve fruits this summer in other
ways than preserves and jellies,
which require a great deal Of sugar.
A light syrup allows the flavor Of the
frsit to predominant and gives a sauce
that is both wholesome and palatable.
Honey is an excellent sweetening for
certain fruits. Housekeepers should
not at this time attemrt to furnish
canned goods for the s nment, but
they can take care Of the local supply
of fruits and vegetables, thus reliev-
ing the demand upon the commercial
stock which may be used by the gov
ernment next winter. Although the
situation as regards the supply OF
sugar is serious, provision has been
made by the Food Administration to
supply ample sugar for canning and
preserving, provided, Of course, that it
is used in reason, for it Is regarded
as important that as much as possible
of the perishable products be conserv-
ed. Sugar for canning and preserving
can be obtained in quantities OF rs
pounds per month per person upon
the signing of a pledge that the sugar
so obtained will be used for that pur.
pose only. Dealers throughout the
state have been furnished with Ger.
'ifcates.
