millions of her citizens.
Germany, on the other hand, need
not figure in such map for Ameri-
cans because there is no present indi-
cation that we shall be called on at all
to take thought for the food needs of
Germany. Germany probably can care
for her own food problem if she is
given access to shipping and is enabled
to distribute food to the cities with
dense populations, which are the trOu-
bic centerS.
England, France, the Netherlands
and Portugal, all Of which have been
maintained from American supplies,
have sufficient food to meet immediate
needs, but their future presents seri-
Gus difficulties. The same is true of
Spain and the northern neutral coun-
tries-Norway, Sweden and Denmark

have been able to draw to some degree
upon foreign supplies.
Most of Russia is already In the

A food map OF Europe today shows
not a single country in which the fu-
ture does not hold threat of serious
difficulties and only small part which
is not rapidly approaching the famine
point. With the exception of the
Ukraine only those countries which
have maintained marine commerce
have sufficient food supplies to meet
actual needs until next harvest, and
even in the Ukraine, with stores accu-
mulated on the farms, there is famine
in the large centers of population.
Belgium and northern France, as
well as Serbia, appear on the hunger
map distinct from the rest of Europe
because they stand in different rela
tiOn from the other nations to the peO-
pie of the United States. America has
for four years maintained the small

France and is already making special
efforts to care for their increased

Finland
Bohemia, Serbia, Roumania and
Montenegro have already reached the
famine point and are suffering a heavy
toll of death. The Armenian popula-
tion is falling each week as hunger
takes its toll, and in Greece, Albania
and ROumania so serious are the food
shortages that famine is near Al
though starvation is not yet imminent,
Italy, Switzerland, Bulgaria and Tur-
key are in the thrOes of serious strin-
gencies.
In order to fulfill Americas pledge
in world relief we will have to export
every ton of food which can be han
died through our ports. This means at
the very least minimum of 20,000,000
tons compared with G,000,000 tons pre-
war exports and 11,S20,000 tons ex-
ported last year, when we were bound
by the ties Of war to the European
allies.
If we fail to tighten the black spots
on the hunger map or if we allow any
portions to become darker the very

inevitably follow famine. Should this
happen we will see in other parts Of

ELK'S ARRANGE
CLUB LUNCHEON
FOR MEMBERS

At the Elks' regular meeting
Thursday evening it was decided to
institute weekly luncheon, which
will be served at noon on Fridays at
the lodge rooms. The purpose of
the weekly event is to afford an ad-
,ditional opportunity for Elks and
their friends to meet and discuss mat
ters of interest to the order and to
the communities of the Valley as
well. Friday was selected because
it is law and motion day at the court
house and nearly all of the attorneys
of the Valley have business in Ell
Centre on that day. Nearly all the
attorneys are Elks.
Very likely the committee will ar
range for short programs at these
luncheons and when prominent visi-
tors come to Ell Centre they will be
invited to address the luncheon pa
irons.
New Years eve promises to be in
teresting at the Elks' Club. The old
year will be ushered out with appro-
pirate frivolity and much fun. The
committee appointed to take charge
of this event consists of Paul Black,
Charles N. Merralls and Fred Clan
ola. Further announcements will be
made concerning this event.

Miss Brady creates the dual roie
of Rosetta and Lola Gelardi, twin
sisters but radically different-phy-

eta is a sweet. reliant girl, blessed
with every virtue, who supports her
self and her aged father by learning
stenography and securing a position
first in a typist's agency and later
as the secretary to Aubrey Hapgood,
successful novelist. Her innocence
and gentility win his heart, and de-
spite the unfortunate incident of Ro-
,setta's innocently posing for risque
'bill-poster, he sees her true worth
and, at the close of the story, mar
ries her. Lola, her sister. is seen
as a member of the underwood. fel-
low conspirator of sharpers and con-
fidence men masquerading as foreign
nobility who seek to ensnare Aubrey,s
sister. Lola is venomous, revengeful,
impure and possessed of the basest
