Capital employed, how? In making
a display; trying to keep the appear

paying dividends. The Eastern and
Middle states people know the mean
ing of this word dividends. The re-
suit Of capital joined with knowledge
and common honesty working at the
f7vorite American past time Of max
ing money. What a pleasant past
time if you 40 not make a task of it.
Are you really in the game, or are
you uncertain as to whether it is real
or imaginary? There is but one way
to get in right, save and invest, save
and invest until your income exceeds
your saving Then you are a capi-
taIst, and to be one Of these, is a
nest pleasant situation. Not all can
be a capitalist. Some ask the butcher

Sales Of War Savings and
Thrift Stamps in Vermont
j to June s, 1918 /
Treasury Department,
Washington, May 16, 1918,

1t is essential that the American
people economic and save in order to
make available to their Government
the money indispensably needed for
the war and to release supplies and
labor required for the production of
things necessary for our own mill
tary forces and for the military forces
Of the nations associated with US.
One of the best methods of bringing
about this result is for everyone to
pledge himself to economic and save
and to purchase, at definite periods
a specific amount of War Savings
Stamps, thus giving concrete evidence
of his support of the practice of War
Savings.
To achieve this object, there will
be conducted, under the direction Of
the Treasury Department, cam
paign for pledges, eliminating on
June 2Sth, when loyal Americans
throughout the country will be asked
to commit themselves to this program.
The progress of the war demands
constant and increasing sacrifices.
We are sending our young manhood
to represent US on foreign battle
fields, where they are called upon to
sacrifice not only their personal COM
fort and material interests but their
lives as well. 1t is appropriate, there
fore for the American people who are
privileged to remain in safety and
comfort at home to consider their
sacred obligation to support our gal
earnestly to save and economic in
order that our soldiers and sailors
may have the food and clothing and
the arms and ammunition without
which they cannot fight.
To the end that this intensive cam
paign may be most effective, l earn
estly bespeak the cooperation of all
the organizations and institutions of
'fuence and active support, can fur
Their this work. 1t is desirable that the
attention of the entire people be cen
tered on their obligation to pledge
the Government this kind of support
for the winning of the war, and with
this object in view, that June 2Sth,
1918, be observed as National War
Savings Day.
With adequate preparation for a
National War Savings Day on June
2Sth, am sure that the American
people will be glad to participate and
t. pie dge themselves to become war
savers, thereby giving concrete evil
dence If their devotion to their coun-
try's welfare and of their inf1exible
purpose to fight until a triumphant
victory for liberty is secured.

FUEL and FOOD
Situation i'm the u. s. Serious
Sugar Ration Lowered.

In talk given in Burlington June 81
federal food director for Vermont, Frank
H. Brooks of st. Johnsbury, presented
the situation as follows:
He said we need to wake up and real
ize the seriousness of the situation as re-
CARDS fuel and food.
The destruction of shipping by the
German submarine is a serious men
ace. Sugar is a precious commodity and
there is a lot of it, but we cannot get it.
The domestic supply will be taken
care of in two pound lots to the con-
sumner, if this is possible. But it is
serious.
The card system is adopted by some
communities, but it must be adjusted
to the latest regulations from Washing
ton.
The Hoover system is absolutely
democratic in its theory and conservation
is voluntary, but it must be made.
Dealer in sugar must look out for his
customers. He should not sell to out
siders or the community supply will sure
ly be exhausted.
Ice cream, now in the 100 per cent
class, will likely be cut down soon.
Candy and soda water must also be cut
down. Sugar is non-essential, must be
cut out,
Sugar for canning purposes is checked
up closely and if boarding is practiced by
any one the penalty will be imposed.
1t is not the amount boarded, but
it is the fact it is boarded, that counts
most.
The speaker emphasized the duty of
loyal citizen to report any act of dis
loyalty to the government; and this is
true of the food boarded, as we'll, Food
boarding is disloyal.
Discussing the wheat situation Mr..
Brooks laid stress upon the untold value
vi blllS plOuuCO, DIS dDoOlutCiy llcCCooebiy w
life of the world. A hundred and thirty
million bushels were shipped across from
this country up to April l. But needs of
the world must be met hence the wheat
less pledge.
If the food ships should stop going
across from this country for three days,
our soldiers would face absolute starva-
ton.
The substitute game has come to stay
said the food administrator. 1t is neces-
sary and will be.
Speaking on the meat situation he
made the startling statement that the
country has just three days beef ahead
: of present supply. We must give w
beef. We have plenty of pork and other
meats.
Milk, eggs and vegetables must bt
used. They are plentiful,
We in the third line Of defense at home
must be as heroic as the men at the
front. Stand with fighting France. |
we are true, food will win the war.
