Especial to The Bulletin.)
 Washington. March 21.--At the re- cent conference of the home economies directors, which was held at the Unit |ed States Food Administration. in Washington, the state of Connecticut vas represented by Miss NJ. EstelIa. sprague. of the Connecticut Agricul- tlral College.
 Miss Sprague had a story to tell of food conservation work that revealed such energy and ingenuity as to make che think of Connecticut as an ex- ceedingly- live wire in home economies work. In the first place. the food forces or Connecticut have been especially well organized, and in the second place, these organizations are really lighting and working. As a matter of fact, four of the most actively and highly organized agencies in the state i are working on food conservation, ] mainly through one office so that there | is no scattering or duplication of ef- l fort Each town las its orga aizatior committee which works with the coun- 1 ty committee, while the county com rnittee works with the state commit tee. The county chairnen also werl with the chairman of the farm bu. reau, and in this way "I'v. rural ano state work are all effectively linked together
 One of the most interesting activi- ties Miss Sprague told about was tht canning schools.
 We had these schools for sever iweeks,' she explained, "devoting on, week to each class, and we had al average of eighty pupils in each 0 these classes. The women who at tended them came from all parts o our cities and ranged from the riches to the poorest At the end of tha time there were released for servic between 500 and 500 demonstrator who worked all summer demonstrat ing canning at stores markets am fairs. We see now that we will hay to arrange for still more of thes training schools to prepare demonstra tors, as there is going to be still nor urgent need for them. These demon strators, of course, are women wh know the subject of cooking thorough ly to stort with. Our instruction however, enabled them to make thei knowledge the basis of food conserva tion- work
 "Early last August the food conser vation committee and the home dem onstration agents met at the state col lege and there outlined our winter work. arranging it on lines laid dow by the food administration. We shal probobly adopt this same plan thi year, adapting to meet whatever ney situation may arist"
 We have a food administratio agent in each county. We conside

SOLDIERS AND SAILORS What Eastern Connecticut Boys Are. Doing In Various Branches of the Service.
soIdiers Want Rriaht Letters.


 Walter Ray Veitch, former Besse- navy somewhere along the French coast, suggests that relatives of the men in this country, and particularly mothers, write more cheerful letters to the soldiers lover there;" this appeal being an extract from a letter written by him to a prominent minister. His brother has sent 8 copy to a Norwich woman,
 The depressing letters received by the men in the army and navy are in such sharp contrast to the sunshiny letters his mother, Mrs. James Wea- yer, writes to him that the deplorable effect on the men has made a deep impression.
 Mrs. Weaver has three sons in the service. The letter follows: "After two months of weary wait | ing, I have at last heard from my be- | loved mother. As you can well inas- | inc, it was a great relief to me. She tells me of your kindness and the prayers you give for my brothers and self, and I wish to assure you of our appreciation.
 q realize that it is hard on mothers with boys in the service, and partic- ularly hard on my mother, who has three boys in the navy. She is a very brave mamma, and writes me such cheerful letters. I am so glad of that! l. would be very hard on me if she should despair. All mothers can help their boys wonderfully if they will write cheerful letters. Some of them that I know of do not"

UNITED LENrEN SERMON.
Sermon Delivered By Rev. M.
 Thompson of Greenwich.

The sixth Lenten service of Christ and Trinity Episcopal churches was held at Trinity church Thursday .ev- ening with a good representation of each church present. The speaker of the evening was Rev. Nj. G. Thompson, rector of Christ church, of Green wich, Conn Rev. MT. Thompson took his text from the fifth chapter of St. John, the 43rd verse, T am come in the name of my Father" Rev. MT. Thompson said in part:
 What w. need now is not new truths but a revival of the old ones. The first great truth is the truth of God. It was to show this truth to the people of the world that Christ came to the t-orld an dtaught of the kingdom of God. Many of us have have let our vision of God become dinamed and we must get a clearer vision of the AL mighty Father and live as the chill dren of God. God is the great Eternal Father and man must come to have a great knowledge of God. God does | not change but it is man who does 1 the changing. Man either has a | clearer vision of God or he lets his vision become dimmed. He is always changing. Christ taught men about | God and showed them that God is the
 
 Christ. On Calvary Christ died te atone for the sins of man and he rose l from the dead to give promise to mar l of eternal life. When we come to know | that God is our father we begin tc realize the divine truth and our bur. | lens become lighter and our spirit i! | gladened by this great knowledge o. course we will have our difficulties but it is worth the price God look: | upon man not as a family but as al | individual and he places a value upoI every one of us. The value placed up on man is illustrated in the Bible il many places. It is because of the valu that God has placed upon man tha Christ hated sin and was grievet when he saw a man following tn ways of iniquity.
 Christ was full of fire and enthu isiasm. He had the vision of God a the Father and it was his purpose t fight for His Fathers Kingdom Many lose sight of God through tn fact that vision has become dimme by the works of Satan. ThS sam thing is in the world today and is i this very war. Has not that powe
 which we are fighting against use
 intrigue to dull our vision and brea
 down that vision of world peace? Tn
 devil has done the same as the kaise and is trying to break our vision ( God. We must get the enthusiasm ( ll Christ and try to win the world 1 , | the Kingdom of God.

WAR SAVINGS SOCIETIES
 IN EVERY TOWN
Campaign Is Under Direction of State
 Director.

A campaign for the formation of war savings societies in every city and town in Connecticut is now under the direction of the state director of war savings and progress is reported in many localities. The following salient facts regarding these societies have been issued by the state direc- tor.
 Have I purchased war savings certificate or a thrift stamp this week? Why Not? Because no one came and reminded me of my intention to buy.
 Have I pledged myself to buy week ly? Have I made good? No, becouse it was a matter of intention rather than definite agreement.
 How may avoid depending on good intentions? By signing as member of a war savings society, by which l will be reminded of my pledge.
 Why shouldl I do this? Because some of the group with which I as- sociate are now in service. l want to get behind them. I want them to know we are supporting them.
 Must l form a new society? No the old one will do. Bring this pro- position before your society or lodge
 What can a society do that an indi- vidual cannot? It can provide ma chinery necessary for collections. Ii can induce members to do their best It can induce us all to save. Why is group saving more effective than individual? Becouse you pattern your expenditures in the fashion o1 your associates.
 What is back of the war saving: l campaign? Saving and serving. Un. cle Sam expects every citizen to serve by releasing his command of labor ant materials and putting them back O our boys in the trenches. The cam paign means universal service and en listment of all in the war.
 How may start a society. By get ting ten or more persons to appl! through your local war savings chair man to be affiliated with the nationa committee. He will do the rest.
