CHANGING
OUR STAFF

YF ones taste in food could be Orien-
talized overnight. 1t seems as If we
would be better patriots for il. or at
least our patriotic attitude oward food
would be more easily achieved. Recent
changes in the Hoover schedule that
have made the meatles meal and the
porkless Saturday no longer essential
nave let up not one whit regarding
the use OF wheat and for a week we
have not been allowed to regard rye as
a wheat substitute. The gist of the
matter is that we have to change our
staff of life. and this cannot be done
all at once when for many centuries We
nave been a bread eating race. II we
could eat rice our main starch foods

for wheat bread. and what eventually

shall substitute rice or potatoes or

That IS. il will probably he easier for
us to get in the habit of eating no
bread at all for dinner than Il ever viii
be for bakers TO make bread without
wheat or with little enough wheat TO
make the desired results in the saving
of this grain. II might have been
easier for the children Of Israel 20
build their houses out Of wood than
TO make bricks without straw. which is
JUST another way Of saying the same
thing.

really be no pace for bread unless II
were served rs an hors d'oeuvre, and
We're then removed from the plates.
But this is the French luncheon style.
The English prefer breadleSs dinner
and needless 10 say many we'll do

Possibly the Englih dinner suffers
for lack OF starch because OF this--the
required amount no doubt is made up

say that the Chinese hreadless meal
is lacking in starch And no one who
knows anything about dietetics could
say that starch as il IS found in the
rice OF a Chinese meal is not a 5 satis-

TRIMMING
NOTES

INGENIOUS In the extreme are the
trimmings OF this season. Conser-
walton has seen no better disciples
in any field Of activity than in that Of
trimming. And the results are really
gorgeous and don't in the least suggest
thriftiness or skimping. In France the
woman managed to make the most brill
liant metallic trimming from scraps
that We're left and were perfectly use
less after the making or ammunition
The result was one of harbaric splen-
dor. Every one felt admiration for the
ingenious French woman who made
this little invention. But IL really
seems as II the American who learned
that the most luscious looking fruit
could he made out Of sawdust really
'put something over" on the French
inventor. Oranges and plums and
gooseherries. lemons. apples and
peaches have their places on the new
hats
This fruit that IS more appealing
than any fruit that has ever before
been used as hat trimming was first
made in a designing room or a mill:-
merry establishment by acc!dent-that
is. the clever one who moulded the
sawdust into fruit shapes did not
know what a boon she was making
for the miliiners. or what contribu-
tion 10 national conservation. II is

Box pieats are in high favor in
