DON'T sT1NTf THE CHILD -
TO SAVE ANY FOOD

The United States food admins.
tration has two great command
ments: I-"Save Food" II-'Use
Food Wisely"
The second rule should be of par
ticular emphasis in the feeding of
children.
There is danger that homemakers,
in their zeal to serve the nation and
conserve food may forget that, as
the food administration points out
ga child can no more fit into food
conservation program suitable for
q grownup than it can comfortably
wear the clothes of a man."
Children are the future life of
the nation and do least fraction of
their cheney. The food of children
is for one big purpose-to make
them grow.
Children are the future life of
their physical fitness to meet the
problems of the future must be sac
rifced in the name of present eco
nomy.
Certain foods on which grown-ups
reduce their rations must be pre-
served intact in the child's diet be-
cause they are the bone and muscle
builders for which there is no salts
factory substitute. Milk, butter and
eggs are among these foods and they
must be provided for the child even
at the expense of their almost to-
tai elimination from the diet of the
older members of the family.
Every growing boy and girl should
be fed from a pint to quart of
whole milk each day, either as a
drink, in soups, or with cereals and
puddings.
" Every child's food for each day
should contain one food from each
Of five classes: I. Milk and dishes
made of milk and eggs, meat, fish,
poultry and meat substitute. 2. Ce-
reals, foods and bread. 8. Whole
some fat, butter, if possible-no
fried foods. 4. Fruits and vegeta-
bfes. 5. Simple sweets-jellies, jam
homemade candy or maple sugar
and honey.
To mothers of families the food
pledge should have one additional
rule: Stint not the child lest ye
spoil the man-Observer.

RAISED TO Is CENTS
Banana Royals Cost 20 Cent-Ice
Cream Sodas and Plain Ice Cream
Remain at 10 Cents.

College ices have advanced so per
cent in Brattleboro. The druggists and
other proprietors of soda fountains have
been serving them for 10 cents, but
hereafter they will cost Is cents. Ba-
mana royals will cost 20 cents, an ad-
vance of 5 cents, but ice cream sodas
and plain ice cream remain at 10 cents.
The dealers say there is an increasing
tendency for customers TO ask for sew
eral varieties of dressing with each
helping of ice cream, which in part
necessitated the advance. They say
also that this town is behind most towns
in the matter of charging Is cents for

WASHINGTON, March l4.-Further in
dications that Leon Trotzky, the former
Russian foreign minister, will oppose rati-

peace terms and that he will advocate re-
organization and use OF the army in de-
Tending Russia are contained in a despatch
to the state department today from Am
bassador Francis at Vologda.
The ambassador reported a conversation
that Trotsky had with someone as late as
March IL in which he said he considered
war unavoidable and advocated an iron
discipline for the army.
The ambassador added that this might OF
might not be significant. The former
foreign minister expressed great interest il
the report that Siberia was about to be in
vadcd by Japan either in conjuction with
the armies of other powers or alone an(
appeared somewhat sensitive regarding it.
