LESS SUGAR

Fifty million pounds of sugar
have been lost by submarine sink
ings elf the Atlantic coast. Tha: Is
about half ponnl apiece for AM
orleans at homo. The crops from
Louisiana cane and from beels in
other states have been disappointing.
Porto Rico has produced less than
was expected. Sugar from Java and
other far places can not be trans
ported because our ships are needed
to get troops and supplies to Europe
These are some of the reasons why
the food administration asks Amer
leans to go on sugar ration OF two
pounds per month per person until
further notice. 1t may be a little
hard for us. 1t means giving up lux
uries. But it means winning the
war. and that is what every Ameri-
can is determined to do.
Two pounds of sugar per person
per month means slightly less than
half pound week Our allies are
doing with less than that. That is
plenty to use in tea, coffee and In
cooking. Where sugar can be saved
to great advantage is in the luxuries
In which 1t forms so great a part.
Less sugar can be put in ice cream.
and less ice cream can be eaten be-
tween meals. Just as it has improv.
ed the nations health to eat less
meat, so less candy will give an.
other boost. Some people, undoubt
edly. need to eat more candy. But
the people who indulge in II most
freely are without question the peo.
pie who need 1t least.
The young woman who used t.
spend her afternoons with a move
and a box Of chocolates is nearly ex
tinct, and should become wholly so
She has to help with the houseworl
because the maids are working II
factories, and her idle time Is given
not to novels and chocolates, but Il
the Red Cross. Children who's,
every penny has been going 70,
cheap sweets may much better b,
eating fruit between meals. Tel
them that apple sauce with dates ol
raisins, that Drunes without sugar
will help win the war, and watch the
,prune cult sweep over the neighbor
hood.
As for the grown-ups, abstinence
from the accustomed amount Of
sugar is going to mean a real sacri
flee. There is no use pretending il
will not. But it is sacrifice for a
cause to which we are pledged. M
true American will refuse to make
it.

TUAM'S NEW ARCHBISHOP

The new Archbishop of Tuam. Most
Rev. DR.. Gilmartin, has just taken pos
session of his sea see which has
an unbroken line of Bishops from the
time of st. Jarlath, fifteen hundred
years ago. He was received by pro-
cession at the railway station which
conducted him through decorated
streets, where all business was sus-
pended, to the cathedral, where the
Papal Bull Of his appointment was
read. Afterwards the Archbishop went
to st. Jarlath's College. where he re-
ceived number of addresses. In re-
spouse he said he was warm advo-
cate of impartiality, which was essen
tial to just government, and he wished
that every priest in his diocese would
speak the Gaelic tongue.

OUR TROUBLES

Our troubles come like storms, and
like storms they pass away.
With the sunshine sparkling round us
in the glory of the day.
They seem to threaten danger,
And the darkness brings US fear;
But we rise up in the morning
To a sky that's sweet and clear
We cringe before the tempest and we
shrink in fear and dread,
But ere we seem to know it there's
rainbow overhead.
Our troubles fee like shadows
When we least expect them to,
And the storms have left the
heavens
And the bonny skies are blue.
The love that reaches patience gives
us strength to trust with smile
In the passing of the tempest and the
calm, sweet afterwhile.
And that's the way with trouble,
When we most expect the blow,
The storm is but bubble
And away the shadows go.

IN A CONVENT.

From dawn to dark the day has run,
And they who rose up ere the sun,
Return at eventide,
Through chapel door, at sound of bell,
The Sisters came their prayers to tell,
Where Jesus doth abide.
Through all the day they worked for
Him
In many ways with earnest vim
They did His blessed Will.
But when the day is nearly DER,
The Sisters come through chapel door
To do their best work still.
The painted angels on the wall
Are not more still-as each and all
Their evening homage pay,
And one there is who prays for me.
That from all sin may be free,
On each and every day.

and we have dry goods dealers who

DO YOU DO THESE THINGS?

Make your mother your best FRIEND
and treat her as politely as if she were
strange lady who did not spend her
life in your service.
Give your confidence to your mother
and your teachers.
Be generous and good natured with
your playmates.
Put away your playthings when you
are through with them. Do not leave
them scattered about for others to pick
up or stumble over.
Do not take the easiest chair when
there are older people in the room.
Do not grumble or refuse to render
service when requested.
Never tease.
Never lie.
Express your gratitude on leaving

for her kindness.
Have great regard for holy things.
Never ridicule the religion of anv

CHAPLAlN'S LIFE HAS ITS PLEAS
ANIRIES.


Although the military chaplains at
the front are facing death most of the
time, their life is not without the
pleasantries, as the following story
shows. There were several Church
of England men and two Catholics to
be buried rather hurriedly. The
Catholic chaplain could not get up to
the burial place in time, and the
Church of England chaplains buried
the Catholics with the others. At
the chaplains' mess, later on, he gave
a faltering explanation of the situa-
ton and what he had done. The Cath
Ollie chaplain, who was present at
mess, was silent, but it was noticed
that at the first opportunity he found
his way to the gaveside and, stand
ing at attention, cried out in tone
of command: GAS you were!" Then
he proceeded to read the Catholic
burial service over the men who had
been buried by the Protestant chap
lain.
