HOW TO OBTAIN SUGAR.
Certificate System Went Into Effect
July 1.

Columbia, June 30.-There will be
enough sugar to supply the public
needs during the next six months
only if luxuries are cut down ana
waste is eliminated. This is the
significant statement of the food ad-
ministration, which has just perfected
regulations to govern the distribution
of sugar in order that the acute
shortage at the present time may not
later develop into sugar famine.
There is not spoonful of sugar to
be wasted. The 100000 tons in
sight will tide over the next six
months, until January 1, 1919, if the
strictest economy is practiced accord
ing to the food administration pro-
gramme, which includes an appeal to
the people of South Carolina to con-
fine their consumption of sugar to
three pounds per person per month.
This apportionment is about double
the compulsory sugar ration of Eng
land, France and Italy, and is uniform
throughout the United States.
The cooperation of the housewife
is depended upon by the food admin
istration. Purchases of sugar, by in
dividuals, except for canning, are lin
tied to two pounds to persons resid-
ing in cities and towns and to five
pounds to persons living in rural Sec
tions. After signing Home Gamers
Sugar certificates, persons may buy
twenty-five pounds of sugar per cal
endar month for canning fruit. Only
individuals who purchase sugar for
household use or for canning can Sc
cure sugar in any quantity after JViy
1, except under a certificate system,
which absolutely limits the total
amount of sugar any manufacturer,
public eating place, baker or retailer
can buy.
Even the dealers in sugar are linn
tied. Under the certificate system,
which has been announced, manufac-
turers using sugar, soda water foun-
tain users, and, in fact, all CONNER
'cial users of sugar, are limited to SO
per cent. of their normal supply. In
order to secure this they are required
to make statements to the food ad-
ministration of amounts of sugar used
~ them heretofore, and on this state
ment sugar certificates will be issued.
In order to be able to buy sugar
the commercial users are required to
surrender these certificates to the,
dealer, and when the certificates are
exhausted no nSbre sugar can be
bought,
Hotels, restaurants, clubs, dining
cars and boarding houses serving
twenty-five or more persons must
likewise apply for sugar certificates
to the food administration, and will
be permitted to purchase sugar on
the basis of three pounds for each
ninety meals served.
Only the individuals who secure
sugar for household use, It will be
seen then are exempt from the certifi-
cate system, but the housewives are
expected to voluntarily comply with
the regulations of three pounds per
person per month.
For canning purposes twenty-five
pounds per month can be obtained by
signing Home Gamers Sugar certifi-
Gates, in the hands of the dealers, but
the sugar must be used exclusively
for canning.
ALI commercial users Of sugar who
have not secured their certificates
should do so at once, since they will
be unable to secure sugar in quantity
after July 1 without these certifi-
Gates.

A MOST PROPER TAX.

There probably will be no effective organized
opposition to the tentative proposition of the
ways and means committee to tax brass knuck-
les one hundred per cent. There had seemed
some reason for believing that the manufacture
of this modern cestus might be interdicted
along with that of poker chips, for the period of
the war as a non-essential industry. But this
has not been done, and its production has not
been interfered with, as far as the public is in
formed. 1t does not appear whether the com
mittee Classics the article luxury or ne
cessity. Neither are any figures given forth as
to the magnitude of the industry or the revenue
the tax is expected to produce. Presumably
however, it is not southern product or in gen
eral use by the dominant race in the cotton
states; for Chairman Kitchen appears to have
had no hesitation in subjecting it to a heavy
mot to say prohibitive, tax. 1t is possible also
\that the disfranchised element in the south NAV

THE SACRIFICING SEX.

News comes from Paris that skirts must be
shorter and tighter than ever before, and the
we'll known ardent patriotism of American
women leaves no room for doubt that thy will
cheerfully make this further sacrifice in order
to help win the war.
1t cannot be denied that the women OF our
country as whole have been reader thin the
men to economic in textile fabrics to an extent
demanded by the crisis on the world. Loyal
and devoted as the Canadian women are, they
have not as yet gone so far in this respect as
their sisters ON this side of the line Undoubt-
eddy they sacrifice in other and probably equal
ways; but they have not felt it incumbent on
them as yet to brave the rigors of their in lie
ment climate in the rudimentary gowns that are
in evidence here Neither have the men Of
America shown a willingness to scant their gar
ments comparable to that of the sacrificing *.
Where do we find a businessman upon our
streets whose trousers barely suffice to hide his
knees7 Comfort-loving, unwilling to incom
mode himself and fearful of the speech of PEG
pie, his neither garments are as ample and
wasteful as ever; while his wife and daughter
not infrequently shame him by their unhesi-
tating willingness to scrimp and curtail for the
public good Who can doubt that when it
comes to personal sacrifice and to Drawing pub
lie opinion in the matter where duty is concern
ed that the women Of America are more intrep-
id and unflinching than the men?
