 IL is almost impossible to approXi- mate the percentage of savings for the public eating places of the coun- try as a whole. One big hotel re- ported a weekly flour saving of al most 50 per cent The same estab- lishment has reported Q saving of more than 10 per cent in meat
 The elimination of waste has been far greater than the actual savings would indicate Hotel and restaurant men have reported tfat there is now practically no waste in their kitchens. Everything is served or sayed-even he enrails of chickens are sold to soap makers Garbage cans are be- ing starved, getting their just deserts but no more.

 The foregoing is Herbert C.

The figures were contained in a report of partial returns obtained from various s'ltes in the union, and in view of the fact that today is meatless Tuesday and tomorrow will call for an observance of wheatless Wednesday, the figures are both timel wand interesting.
 Reports from only a few sections of the country indicate that the pub lie eating places-hote clubs, res taurants and dining car services are saving immense quantities of meats and wheat through voluntary adop- tion of meatless Tuesdays and wheat Iaeu [EnIracTavg r. s, 3r,,,or-tt, f., at present 10 estimate the savings of the entire country, but figures from New York City and the states of Massachusetts, Colorado, Nebraska Michigan.

Commodore Decatur's brilliant
career was ended in a duel with
James Barron, a former naval officer
whose reinstatement he had fought.
Decatur refused to shoot to kill Bar
ron, who sent a fatal bullet into the
commodore. The duel took place near
Washington. March %, 1920. AS he
lay on the field of death Decatur ex-
claimed:
Il am mortally wounded, at least
believe so, and wish had fallen in
defence of my country"
or the forty-two years of his life
twenty-five had been spent in the
naval service of his country. And
throughout that ca eer his record
had been one OF splendid achieve
ment, daring, and an intense love of
country.
His name is even now, almost a
century after his death, on the rolls.
In the world conflict is a destroyer
that bears his name. Deeds as heroic
as those that were recorded opposite
his name will be performed in the
present war. and it may fall to the
lot of the young officers and crews
aboard the Destroyer Decatur to
have share Of the plaudits.
If tradition counts for anything
and it has been rated as having a
high place in keeping the navy up to
standard second to none-then the

heard from before peace comes to

officer of the captured ship for per-
mission to run ashore to the frigate,
as they had lost their anchors in the

Decatur quietly ordered a boat
