MEAT SHORTAGE

Referring to the meat shortage, Lord Rhondda said he did not want 10 threat cn he did not want to coTmahueer cat tle. but the machinery would be there to carry the cattle to market when the time came.
 There was going to be great short age of meat during the next couple or weeks, but after that he hoped the po- sition would improve considerably.
 Before the war 40 per cent. or the meat consumed by civilians was inl- ported from abroad; today a large part of the imported meat went to the army, leaving less than 10 per cent for civil ians. There was, however no great de- pletion in cattle in the country. It was leaner cattle, but there was large sup

COMMUNAL KITCHENS

Food" said Lord Rhondda, in my opinion, should have priority of tonnage and finance. There has been -an enor- nous increase in Wages, aggregating 100000 O00 sterling a year, and this in- creases the difficulty of getting down the price of food"
 The food controller strongly supported communal kitchens and said that gov ernment grants would be made where necessary to establish them. He incl dentally disclosed the fact that Lady iRhondda obtained the Christmas dinner for her family from one of these kitch- ems, and added:

HI DAY OF JUDGMENT


Soon or late comes the Day of Judgment.
Whether there is to be a great courtroom Scene after the moon has

Before the eve ac mems activities. their plans. ambitions. wars,
government, and institutions. Concealed, deep hidden, where only
the eye Of wisdom can see them, are the imnutablc laws Of God. the
sluggish yet irresistible movements of destiny, whose path IS progress
whose direction is righteousness, whose end is justice.
When by and 10y the Vaccinations of men have reached the sum
of their iniquity, the mark OF limft fate has decrecd for them, and are

And now comes the latest monster. trying the fatuous task of
overcoming by the might and craft of man the everlasting equities OF

Continues
Drive for Jewish War Relief Fund
May Extend Into Next Week II
Present Weather Conditions Keep
On-Subecripdons Coming in Well.

The campaign to raise money for
the Jewish war relief fund in Grand
Forks county is still under way. 1t Is
hoped by the committee that h cam
paign will close this week or the first
part of next week.
Subscriptions have been coming in
from city and out-of-town subscribers.
and the committee expects to make
an extended canvass Of points no yet
reached during the week. A tour has
been planned to reach the towns and
rural districts of the county by auto,
but this will not be undertaken until
the condition Of the roads permits. If
the present weather conditions con-
tinue, it is probable that the closing of
the campaign will be delayed until
next week.
Although the drive has been sched-
uled to close this week, the committee
will continue with its campaign until
all its campaign plans have been real
lied. The drive program includes a
thorough c~anvassing by mail or in
person Of all Of the districts of the
county, and. the committee believes
that the outcome will come up to
their original expectations.
No definite report of (the amount
already in the hands of the treasury
can be given out, but subscriptions
have been coming in steadily.

THAYER WEARS
MANY BADGES
In Last Two Years He Has
Made Great Record in
.
Fighting with Marines.

Paris, Sept. 22.-(Correspondence Of
the Associated Press. )-The only dec
orations worn by Private Luke Thayer;
Jr., Of the United States marines up
to two years ago were those received
about his optics when he settled his
disputes in the good old Yankee way.
Today Luke. who is a trifle over
nineteen years old, wears three CAM
paign ribbons, a croix de guerre with
other stripes indicating a years serv-
ice i'm France.
Incidentally he is wearing half a
dozen scars from Boche' shrapneli and
bullets.
Luke is the son Of the chief Of po-
lice of Georgetown. Pa. He was living
at 1907 Arch street, Philadelphia,
when a recruiting poster caught his
eye and he decided to see the world
through the medium Of the u. S. ma
rine corps tr1vel agency. BY stretch
ing his five feet six to the full limit
and by looking the recruiting officer
in the eye without blushing while he
swore he was within h legal age
limit for enlisting, Luke got into the
Soldiers of the Sea-" 4
The story of Luke's adventures since
that date came out in this city when,
while convalescing in a large military
hospital, he got permission to visit the
headquarters of the Knights of Col
umbus so that he could obtain free
smokes and entertainment. He got
both and I got his story.
Within a<few months after Luke en-
listed he earned his first campaign
ribbon by helping to impress the
might Of Uncle Sam on some Of the
natives of San Domingo. A jaunt to
Haiti xuoo nnvf IN nrSor wh0rn ho
acquired another ribbon.
1t was at Belleau woods that Luke
earned the right to wear the war cross
with a palm. A detachment Of the
marines was with q French regiment
at the time. On a little hilock well
c~amoufaged by a clump of bushes,
two German machine guns were spit
ting death into the ranks OF the
French and the marines. Twelve vol
unteers were called for to storm the
two nests. and Luke was n of the
twelve.
The twelve divided into two bodies,
but Of the five with Luke, only one got
as far as the objective with him. The
others were either killed or wounded.
Three grenades well placed by the
boy from Pennsylvania finished up the
crew of the gun he was after.
Over on the other part Of the hill
lock Luke noticed his ""pals" were
having a tough time. He turned the
gun he captured on the Germans still
fighting with the other bullet spit
ter" and not only finished them quick
ly, but routed a counter attack made
by about thirty of the Boche. Aid
arrived a little later, but before that
time fragments Of a she'll had put
Thayer out Of action temporarily.
Since that time he's recovered enough
to have had the wal cross pinned on
him, and he's happy, for the surgeons
ton soon. ta 49, r
"This wouldn't be such a bad old
war;" said Thayer, 'if only those
French generals wouldn't insist on
