Daily Food Hint

Fish, the dish which combines reli-
gious observance with loyalty and
economy, is very popular now in the
Lenten season. At a time when we
are asked to use foods that require as
little preliminary caring for, prepara-
ton and transportation as possible,
fish is an ideal food.

MAKING BEGGARS BEGGARS

Begging is a habit. II one is in
dulged in his desire to ask aims Of the
passers-by, he will never quit begging.
1t happened on the streets of Co
lumbia that a young woman was ask
ing for money of the people Of the
town. Two men came along and were
stopped by the woman. Help me,
please" she said One of the men put
his hand in his pocket and gave the
woman 25 cents. The other man gave
her nothing, but questioned her.
Where do you live?" he asked. The
woman was confused for a moment
and then named a nearby small town.
why are you begging?" he continued.
The woman grew more confused and
then answered, 81 am trying to get
through school" This man directed
her to the Columbia Charity Organi-
zation Society. He turned to his
friend and asked, why did you give
her the money!" always give" he
answered. But do you do any good
to her" "Oh. it's such a small sum-"
1T is. But you encourage her in her
begging instead of trying to rid CO.
lumbia of her and her kind"
Later, the man who had refused to
help this woman found that she had
baggage at one of the hotels and had
left the town, dressed very beautifully
His questioning had made her afraid
Of investigation.
If anyone asks for help send him
or her to the Columbia Charity Or
ganization Society. There is no ex-
cuse for begging on the streets of Co
lumbia.

not knowing the reason why, are
silent. "They are not playing" said
the Swiss, because they have not the
strength to play" 1t matters not the
reasonl The light of heaven is hidden
in Germany and lightest day is even
as the darkest night.
To us it is a warning! Now while
we are at the beginning of the prepa-
rations for war let us not forget for
whom we are fighting. The battle is
not for democracy alone; 1t is for our
children. We owe our strength to the
little ones who shall grow up to in
herit our civilization of freedom and
equality for all. Let us keep the
children playing; let us keep the light
of heaven with us. Even as the dark
clouds hover over us let the ray of
light come through. Let us distinguish
between sincerity and seriousness.
Our sincerity should be as the play of
children. Let us not forget them. Let
us suffer little children to come unto
us and forbid them not"

THOSE WHO REMAIN AT HOME

When the neighbors' boys return
home from the training camp on a
furlough just before going to France
and when new stars are added to the
service flags nearby, it is time for us
who remain at home to ask ourselves
Are we worth fighting for? Are We
worth dying for?
These young men who have Joined
the Army to fight for American Ideals
have signified that they are willing
to make the supreme sacrifice so that
we who remain at home may live in
peace They go Overease to fight the
autocracy that would have come to
the United States, the greatest example
and exponent of democracy to crush
us. A small percentage, smaller than
most of us imagine, will be called up
on to make this supreme sacrifice. But
all who go to France are taking their
lives in their own hands so that we
may enjoy the liberty that democracy
gives.
But are we, who get the benefits of
this sacrifice, appreciative of what
these men are doing? No one thinks
lightly of the men who have gone to
war, but we do think lightly of our
part in the conflict. We are to apt to
think that all the fighting is done in
France and Flanders, that we have
only to enjoy what the soldiers are
fighting for. But we can do our share
here at home.
War asks for courage, fortitude,
obedience and goodwill. Cheerfulness
might be added to this list The men
in the trenches have these things
drilled into them but we who are at
home are likely to forget them, TO c'nl-
plain that too much is being asker: of
us, to be a trifie thoughtless of the
fact that we are at war AMI that We
must make personal sacrifices If the
boys who are prepared to make the
supreme sacrifice are to be properly
cared for
Every man soldier" has been sug-
gested as a slogan Tor the CEited
States. This does not mean that every
person must wear a uniform. but that
we who remain at home get the same
spirit that drives the soldiers forth to
battle. The man in the trenches does
his duty under the most trying cir
cumstances. We who remain at home
can show that we are worth fighting
for, worth dying for, by being willing
to make the same sacrifices as the
man in the field. Then and not until
then will the purposes of this war be
