One of the most frequent groups OF
symbols seen in Chinese designs is
the Buddhist group. The Buddhist
knot is the sign of longevity. and also
stands for the eight Buddhist COM
mandments. Two fish denote domestic
felicity. These fish, or perch. go in
pairs and are always faithful to each
other. The umbrella of 10000 people
is presented TO mandarin on his leav-
ing district as token of the purity
of his administration. The canopy, like
the umbrella, is sign relating to Of

Minor Scales.

There are two forms of the minor

The former is simetimes called the

difficult to sing until one has acquired

BREAD CARDS IN FRANCE
Even Babies Limited Because Of SCI

Even Babies Limited Because Of SerI.
Gus Shortage Abroad.
France has Just established new
regime of bread consumption. From
now Oh bread will be strictly ratiOned
through all OF France on the follow
ing basis:
Children less than three years old,
Sh ounces per day.
Children from three to thirteen
years old, Z ounces.
Persons from thirteen to sixty years
old, 1917 ounces. (Hard workers ip
this age class receive 81 ounces
nore).
Persons over sixty years old. J
ounces.
This ration is about two-thirds Of
the bread allowance heretofore main
tanned. The fact that bread cOnsti-
tutes over one-half the diet of the
French nation and the further fact
that the price of meat is such as prac-
t:cally to prohibit it's use by large
part of the population make these
figures highly significant of the ex-
tent to which the French people are
going in their efforts to restrict food
consumption.

EAT POTATOES
and Save WHEAT
Decrease in Grain Shipments
Puts Allies Soldiers in PERIL
Be 4 STOMACH" PATRIOT
Lets Use the Tubers Now, Export the
Cereal and Lick the Kaiser.

Lets Use the Tubers Now, Export the
Cereal and Lick the Kaiser.
America has fallen behind III its
shipments of food to Europe. We
must make up our obligations now by
sending more cereals, especially, wheat.
Eating potatoes is one way to in
crease the supply Of wheat.
We have the potatoes millions OF
bushels are available now; they
won't be as good three months from
now. To conserve both wheat and
potatoes-eat potatoes now-and get
such an enthusiasm for potatoes that
next years production will beat this
years.
Our comrades across the sea need
wheat. They need every bit we have
in this country. What would Germany
do under these circumstances? If the
Hohenzollern family demanded wheat
for the preservation of autocracy the
German people would be compelled to
send the last grain and they would
be compelled in the name Of auto
cracy to eat potatoes.
We can improve on that. OF our
own free will we can send wheat for
liberty; out of love for our fellows
we can eat potatoes for democracy.
No able-bodied true American will
object to potatoes as substitute at
the noon or evening meal. A popping
baked potato, hot, dry, boiled pOta-
to, a mound Of creamy mashed ,pota-
toes, a rich, brown potato cake, or a
well-seasoned stuffed potato will salts
fy any normal person. Substitute now
cheerfully, for the time is not far dis
tant when you must sacrifice whether
you will or no. Therefore, take the
training.
