force the rule that children under
the age Of four years shall not he
reckoned in the family allotment Of
three pounds Of sugar per person per
month. Expert dietitians state that
over three quarters of a pcunl Of
sugar per month for a child Of that
age is not only unnecessary but IL
furious TO health. In view Of the
sugar stringency and the liberal al
lotment to adults. it seems that the
sacrifice asked of the parents is not
unreasonable. Parents are asked to
bear this rule in. mind when making
out applications for sugar cards.
Consumers living in the towns sur-
rounding Augusta but accustomed TO
purchase sugar in Augusta are ASK
cd to purchase sugar in their home
towns, if possible. Augusta dealers
will sell TO out-of-town pu1chs scr )
only if they are regular customers.
The issuing Of cards to out 'o--town
people will. of course, be reported 20
local administrators and deai ,r3 IN

Local dealers are urged 70 get we
