WILL BUY NO WHEAT FLOUR.
Club Women OF South Carolina
Adopt Patriotic Resolution. But
They Could Have Made it Stronger
by Pledging Themselves to Eat No
Wheat Bread.

Columbia, April 29.-In u splendid
spirit of patriotism, the club women
of South Carolina will buy no more
wheat -four until another harvest.
The soldiers of America and the peo-
pie Of Allied European countries and
their soldiers will have the flour saw
ed through the South Carolina club
women and their families going on
wheatless ration.
At the final session of the twentieth
annual convention of the South Car
olina Federation of Women's Clubs.
held in Aiken this week, this action
was unanimously taken, and the adop-
ton Of a resolution, which, in effect,
pledges the club women to such q
far-reaching program of flour saving.
was greeted with patriotic applause.
There are in South Carolina more
than one hundred and twenty-five
federated clubs, comprising a MEM
bership of upwards of 5000 women.
Perhaps the larger proportion of those
are married women, controlling the
family purchases and directing the
households over which they preside
1t Is believed by the Food Administra
ton, however, that even more far
reaching will be the effect of this ac-
ton of the club women in setting the
example for the whole people of the
State to follow.
William Elliott, food administrator
for South Carolina, sent a telegram
to the club women, in convention at
Aiken. Thursday, setting forth the
urgent need of cutting down the con-
sumption of wheat flour so that Amer
lea may fulfill her obligation to the
Allies and requesting that, in view of
the desperate need of the Allies for
wheat, the club women of South Car
olina buy no more wheat flour until
the next harvest. In his address be-
fore the convention Thursday night,
Gov. Manning urged that Mr.. Elliott's
suggestion be acted upon, and it was
with eagerness that the delegates
waited until the final session Friday
afternoon so that they might, by their
vote. pledge themselves and their in
dividual organization memberships to
this program. This action Is in line
with the program Of the Total Alb
stainers Clubs formed in Ohio and in
Texas and in other parts of the
country. At Montgomery. Ala, the
Chamber of Commerce recently
pledged six hundred homes of that
city to wheatless program until the
next harvest. But so far as is known,
the action just taken by the club wo-
men Of South Carolina is the biggest
wheat-saving plan yet determined up
on, with the possible exception of the
action of patriotic hotel proprietors in
many Of the largest cities Of the coun-
try who recently pledged themselves
to Herbert Hoover to serve no more
wheat bread on their menus until the
shortage in wheat for the comrades OF
Americans in Europe has been reliev-
ed by the new crops.

'The Peoples Voice."

Darling, when I am far away
From you-somewhere in France.
l ask you to always think of me
And pray that 1 have a chance,
To leave you, dear, was hard,
The hardest thing of all
But 1 am no Stacker,
When 1 hear my country call.
To be at home with you, little girl
Is happiness that is true,
But 1 cannot see the enemy
Down the Red, White and Blue!
l used to be with you often
Those beautiful happy days,
But it makes me blue to think
That we are so FAR away.
Some day in the near future
This great conflict will end,
And the soldier boy who loves you
Will come back to you.
l told you when I kissed
Those lips of yours so sweet,
That I was going to leave you
And again we may never meet
Don't give up, my darling,
If you love me you will wait,
If we don't meet on earth again
We will meet at the Golden Gates
Some girls are not patient
Who will not wait so long.
Will go and love Stacker,
When their soldier boy has gone.
When he goes to fight the battle,
For his country and for you
His thoughts are always resting
On the one he thinks is true.
When he returns in years to come,
And finds you false
His whole life will be ruined
And his happiness lost.
Don't bear this stain, little girl,
Make your love be true;
Greet the boy in khaki
When he comes marching back tc
you.
Do not respect a Stacker;
They deserve not even a chance.
The boys whom you should honor,
Are the boys who go to France.
will close this letter. hoping
You will be mine some day,
AS bid you goodbye for this hour,
And goodbye for the day.
If it is goodbye for a month,
He loves YOU true as ever,
And perhaps forever.
