and bloody struggle it certainly
does seem good to know that we
are to have at least a breathing

If we had any assurance that
the Peace which has now come
would be permanent, and that it
meant the final end Of all war,
it certainly would be great stuff.
But we have no such assurance.

Yes-sir-ee-Bob, | would be the
tickledest feller in seven states

are strong reasons why I can't

Of course this Peace is all

2 POUNDS SUGAR PER MONTH.
Hoover Takes Off Pound the First
of August.

Washington, July 25.-The Ameri-
can republic was asked by the food
administration today to go on a
sugar ration of two pounds per capita
monthly, beginning August l, to
meet a world shortage in this COM
modify, and to care for immediate
demands of the Allies and American
military forces.
The American public is at present
on a three-pound per capita ration
monthly, under request issued by
the food administration month ago.
Household rationing will be volun-
tary at present, but public eating
places will be required to observe
new regulations effective August g.,
permitting the use of two pounds of
sugar for every ninety meals served,
instead of three pounds under ex-
listing regulations.
Unless the consumption of sugar is
reduced both by householders and the
public generally, the food administra-
tion gave warning today, supplies for
Belgium, the Red Cross, Y. NJ. G. A.,
knights of Columbus, Salvation Army
and other organizations working for

N'OMEN ASK FOR

The women of America, who are
anxious to do their great part in the
winning of the war, are now, as
whole. familiar with the most impor
tant aspects of food conservation Inc

and in the revised edition for 1919,
which provides for two wheatless days.

to wheatless meal every day, has Deen
placed by the Food Administration art
er vigorous campaign in lO,OOOooV
American homes. An intelligent anu
conscientious observance OF the Rome
Cards requirements is all the Fooo
Administration asks of the housewives
of the country.
The Food Administration has had
great many requests. however. particu-
larly from the homes of the well-to-do,
that it should issue worked out plan
for a voluntary system of rationing.
This desire for a voluntary ration
springs from two csuses-first, be-
cause it is far simpler for the house
wife to save food when she has con-
crete working plan by which to pro-
coed, and, second, because the loyal
women of America desire, unselffshly,
to put themselves on the same basis
as the women OF the Allied countries.
The ration proposed by the Food Ad-
ministration is almost the same as
that adopted In England for voluntary
observance. All over the United King

hangs in the front window card with
the stirring pledge, AIN HONOR

The ration recommended by the
Food Administration, and adopted first
in New York city, whence the idea has
spread through the entire country, is
the following:

serving) -............... 4 10.
The items listed above are the only
ones which are definitely limited. In
the case of milk and cream, as much
may be used as necessary, and chill
dren, of course, must have their full
allowance of whole milk. Fish and
poultry, any cereal other than wheat,
vegetables and fruits and cheese may
be used as freely as is desired
