Editorial

We were very much surprised
last Sunday morning upon pick
ing up the paper to find letter
or advertisement Of thanks from
our employees.
Such an expression Of graft
tude gave US a feeling of salts
faction. We want to do still more
for our co-workers who so ap-
preciate the things that we have
done for them. And, We came
to work yesterday morning with
a new determination to strive
the harder to help the good folks
Of our organization who are
laboring so hard just now
in bearing the great burden of
extra work that is thrust upon
them because of present condi-
tons.
Won't you assist US in max
ing the work as easy as posi-
BILE? A little smile, a word of
appreciation or a little patience
WILL help a lot.

en- refuse Of 1917. The second fac
ttor. which would lead us to expect
an increase instead Of decrease this
year. is the fact that in practically
every butcher shop in the country.
the scraps Of fat and bones, which
were formerly thrown under the
counter to be sold to rendering COM

customer. Figures from the render

Under these conditions. the re-
port that the quantity Of garbage
collected during the first nine
months Of 1917 in eishty-ons cities
showed . decrease Of twelve to fif-
teen per cent over the collections Of
1915 Is nothing short Of marvellous.
this means that the
housekeeper who used to put seven
or eight pounds Of material into her
garbage pail every week has not
added q pound Or two; as might be
on account Of her larger
use Of perishable foodstuffs and the

actually withheld one pound out Of
