TEACHING CONSERVATION
TO FOREIGNERS A BIG JOB

Teaching the women of the foreign
districts how to save food, is one Of
the most interesting tasks undertaken
by food conservation workers in Colo
rado, according to recent report Of
the Home Economics Director for
this state. The Spanish postmistress,
priests, local food administrators, visi-
ting nurses and even the school child
rem were among those pressed into
service to teach the women of the for
eign districts that it was far more
patriotic to eat certain cereals for
breakfast than it was to feed them
to the family cow.
Neighboring meetings were held ut
different times, and the women were
given lessons in bread making, and
were taught how to save certain
foods which are especially needed for
overseas duty. In many cases the
Interpreting had to be done by school
children from the foreign districts.
Was it worth while! Well, most
decidedly it was. These people Of the
