WHY WE MUST SAVE FOOD.


The 1917 wheat crop In France was
less than half normal. using the crop
of 1918 as basis of comparison.
There was Il shortage of 178,0O0,OOO
bushels, or 53.3 per cent. The potato
crop was only within one-third of nor
mai. The sugar beet crop showed n
deficit Of go per cent. Her meat
herds In the early fall showed short.
age Of 100000 animals.
Those are few of the reasons
America must feed her associates In
the war. They are no longer able to
feed themselves, and unless we come
to the rescue are face TO face with
starvation. And starvation means de-
feat In the war.

oh. Hoover, whose Dont's have

dinners, since first your words fell,
have been wheatless and meatless
and eatless as well! There's less on
the pIates-the portions grow small
but the clearinghouse rates
haven't dwindled at all!
This brings me at length to the
theme of my song. Two people once
met In a clearinghouse throng.
Miss Daisey Devere met young
Ferdinand White. It was one those
cases of Love at First Sight Miss
palsy was dainty and dImpled and

white sort of guy.

explain. In any event, Ferd passed
her the bread and she gave him a

with a rapturous look. TN cook what

And so they were mar lied, and
left that old shack without once
looking back after taking the track.
Brave FerdIe was sure that the
light of his life wouldn't eat half
as much as the average wife. And
Daisy was sure that her cooking
would do after all OF the hardships
the two had gone through.

Puss in Boots
Jr.
BY David Cory.

w JzLL, Puss Junior spent two
A or three days at the
wv Scarecrow's house. and
then, bidding him and his
wife good-by, continued his journey
of adventure. And by and by. after
q while, he came to q cobbler's shop.
And il was very lucky for him that
he did, for his top boots were wen
worn and one OF his toes was peek
ing through hole.
Now the cobbler was sitting out
side his little shop smoking his
pipe, and when Puss asked him II
he could make a pair OF red top
boots, the cobbler replied:
"Yes. indeed, Sir Cat In fact! II
you will sit down beside me. viii
tell you an interesting tale. for
see you are q traveller and IN search
of adventure"
So Puss seated himself on the
other end Of the bench. and then
the cobbler began his story:
"One night after a hard days
work left two pairs OF shoes cut
out ready to be sewn. but you can
imagine my surprise when looked
for them in the morning. to ind
that they had been already sewn
together. So that night left two
more pairs cut out, and when i
looked for them in the morning. 10
and behold. they, too. were made
I'D as nicely as you please. So that
night I crept down from my bed
room to see who was my good
friend who made my shoes while I
slept, and would you believe II,
there on my bench sat two little
elves sewing on my shoes. and
while they worked they sang this
Fong:
stitch, stitch. stitch,
And hammer here q peg
And soon q shoe we1l have for Lou
And maybe one for Meg"
well, this sort OF thing went on
for some time, till one day the king
rode by and said to me:
"Cobbler, in one OF the boots you
sold to me I found letter. which
said that my Iong-lost boy was
with the elves In the forest HOW
came that letter in the boot you
sold me2"
$50 then I related to the king
all that had happened, and would
you believe il, the very next day
he went into the woods and found
his long-lost child
Is very strange"
yes" said the cobbler, scratch
ing his head, at seems that the lit
tie child had wandered from the
castle and had lost his way In the
forest, and would have starved had
not the kind Little Men OF the
Wood taken care of him. But.
come, Sir Cat, let me take your
measure and will cut out the
leather. Maybe the elves Will come
tonight II leave them unfinished
on my table"
So the cobbler measured Pusss for
the boots and after he had cut the
leather into the proper shape he
left It on his bench, and then he
and Puss went into the house for
supper. And when It was time for
bed, they went up stairs, and what
happened after that you must wait
to hear in the next story.
