CONSERVE SURPLUS
FOOD.

Increased planting of vege-
tables this year almost certainly
will mean an unprecedented
yield of fresh vegetables In the
Spring and summer.
This will mean plentiful sup
piles for summer tables and a
large surplus.
This surplus, to be useful to
America, must be conserved.
1t must be canned, dried,
brined, or stored in the homes
of America.
Home-conserved food means
that the home will be more
nearly self-sustaining and that
the burden on transportation
will be lightened.
Women who have never
canned should now learn how;
women who know how should
prepare to do more. - United
States department Of agricul-
ture.

Upon the women and girls, and boys,
too, in the homes Of America rests
the large and important responsibility
of making sure that the surplus Of
vegetables, berries, and fruits grown
this year is not wasted even in part.
It will be patriotic. service to can,

ONE BENEFIT TO GERMANS

The end Of the war brought ben
efits to the German people that they
themselves appreciate in the midst
Of a defeat. 1t has brought them po'
litical freedom - democracy - and
this will be Of inestimable value to
themselves and the world.
The ex-kaiser himself seems to
have had an inkling of the changed
orders benefits, for when he signed
the abdication paper he is said to
have remarked, that after all, his
action may be for the good of Ger
many.
! Free peoples are not "place-in-
suners," imperialists, and world con-
uuestors. They naturally prefer the
live-and -let-live principle. This like
wise will be the case with the Ger
man populace. They reached the
sunlight of liberty by climbing over
the heap of skulls of their own head.
By annihilating the menace OF
militarism and Germanic lust for
world conquest the Allies not only
saved themselves but also brought
Ihe light to the people Of our late
enemy nations.-Peoples Gazette.

thinks you are honoring yourself IN

this every day. Thanks are 50
scarce, particularly from supposedly
intelligent people, individuals of re
puted standing, we wonder if ingrat-
itude is possibly not virtue. In
war work, yes in conservation, meat,

they are first, the cause secondary;
they think the newspaper will &C.

PLIGHT OF THE GER
MAN PEOPLE.
Letter in the Times-Pacayune.

France and Belgium are in mourn
ing because of the destruction and
devastations wrought by the Huns
But they are doing their part in re-
building and rehabilitating the de-
vastated regions. But, however sad
the fate of the people of these out
ragged and afflicted countries, 1t is
a glorious fact that they have not
lost their souls, and the soul is the
life of a nation. They will come out
Of the fire through which they have
passed a purged and purified, yea, a
glorious people.
But what can one say for the
Germans2 For while their lands and
homes have been spared by the al
lies and while their women and
children have been spared the horri-
Bile degradations inflicted !. rlends
incarnate upon other people, thy
have suffered moral and spiritual
degradation a hundred times more
deplorable than anything endured
by their victims. Their church,
school, press, art, science, culture,
have lost their prestige and leader
ship because they have stood by the
egomaniac, the Kaiser, IN his insane,
INSCRIPTIONS plans for world domin-
ion and self ACKNOWLEDGMENT.
If the time should ever come when
the Germans learn that their soul
life has been outraged and prosti-
tuted, to whom shall they flee for
succor and guidance?
The brutes of soldiers returned to
their homes will carry with them
the stigma Systematically cultivated
by their superiors; their immoral
degradations will be indelibly in
-scribed on their foreheads.
Pitiful indeed is the fate of the
German people-their minds, their
souls, and morals a physical and
spiritual wreck, all because Of that
domineering, egomaniacal archfiend,
the assumed Kaiser.

The former is simetimes called the

dificult to sing until one has acquired
