oven this program means self.denial
by the Allies next year. They are
making this Hacrifice In the common
cause. We must maintain the health
and strength OF every human being
among them or they will DO unable to
put their full atrength alongside our
bwn in the supreme effort.
At the Presidents direction, Mr..
Hoover has promised them that "in this
common cause. we cat ct common
table," upon entering these
conferences in Europe we promised
Them that whatever their war-food pro.
gram called for from us we should
fulfill.
AT best the Allied table will be less
than ours. for the Allied people are
denying themselves more In order to
transport our soldiers. To provide
ships for our army. we have not only
10 build all that We can. but we must
have the help Of the Allied shipping.
In order that the Allies may provide
this, they must take food ships from
the moro distant markets and place
them upon the shorter run to the
United States. We can do no less than
all the ships they send tA. We must
decrease our imports Of sugar, coffee
and tropical fruitn.

had the pleasure of seeing quite Il

altho the hills are not SO high here,
but the roads are simply fine and we
never get tired hiking over them. l
like over here fine: in fact, all the

not worry about us. | havn't seen

say (and not from this fountain
pen) that W boys have the spirit and
pep TO put those Huns across the

is to buy Liberty Bonds, War Savings

will take care of the Huns. Remind the
