BE AN "ANTI"

There are anti-Americans and anti-Britishers. There are anti-in- dustrials and anti-foodsavers, con- scientious objectors and plain slack CTS. There are anti-Red Crossers and anti-Liberty Bonders, and some others who are simply willing to ''let George do it."
 If you are just plain American and are not anti-something, here's your chance. Register yourself in your own little memorandum book as an anti-Bellyacher. There are no dues, no assessments, no meet ings to attend, no buttons to wear, ani no window cards. The society has no offices, no paid officers and its sole purpose is propaganda.
 The members pledge themselves to discourage war time belly thing in all its forms. Their creed and pledge is:
 hereby avow the belief that even I could not run the war to please everybody.
 That war must necessarily inter fere with some peaceful occupations and pursuits.
 That all men and women should help as much as possible and "can" the bellyache until it's won.
 That all hundred-per cent Ameri- cans realize that we are in this be- cause we could not honorably stay out, and as we are in, it is our pur- pose to push as hard as we can; to root for the government with a large size megaphone; to glorify the army and navy and all their works and damn the man who throws sand in the gears.
 To swat the fault-finders and the calamity howlers, the woebetides and the sob sisters To discourage the individual who insists that his private affairs take precedence over the national necessities.

FILL THE SHIPS

Food means life. Lack of food means death. When you waste food you are wasting someone's life. Stringent measures have been taken abroad to drive home this fact to peoples minds. A woman in England was fined s100 recently and jailed for thirty days because she threw away one-half of a rice pudding. A baker was sent to jail for six months for throwing away two pies.
 Hard penalties, you say? But these people were wasting human lives. They are murderers. Scrupulous care is taken that every bit of food that comes into those homes across the sea is saved. For instance, every vessel in which food has been cooked has water poured into it. The water is strain ed and the food which originally ad- hered to the side of the vessel is saved and cooked again.
 This is just one example of the ways in which European housewives are economizing. We may be very sure that no food we send to Flu rope is wasted.
 ! Let's fill the big ships then, and send them back with their message
 of life and hope to those women
 across the water.
 . Wheat is the food most needed
 ROW. Let us do without it, so far
 as we altogether if we can
 and most of us are able to if we
 are in earnest. One way to do il
