Leimbacher of Fargo. chairman of
the Restaurant and Hotelmen's as
ISOLATION of North Dakota, speaking
before the North Dakota Hotelmen's
convention in session here today, de-
clared that the problem Of the
keeper of a public eating establish

that Of the housewife.

that we can scarcely expect to do

Cessity of food conservation.
The majority Of hotelkeepers are
assisting in all ways possible by the
regular maintenance Of meatless and
wheatless days and by the elimi-

THE ORPHEUM

Sirens of the Sea- opens at the
Orpheum today for a three-d day run
The play features Louise Lovely and
Carmel Myers in an all-star cast,
and was produced by Allen Holubar.
The play synopsis follows:
It's an enchanted island and over
yonder sit Lorelei and her sirens.
Destruction or not, I'm going to
Lorelei," exclaims the handsome
young yachtsmsn, Gerald Waldron,
to Hartley Boyce as they sail past a
rock bound island, where Sybil, an
exquisitely beautiful maiden, and
her girl companions, all donned in
sea-weed in lieu of bathing suits,
are playing ukuleles and dancing
shelter as the young men make a
landing and rush after them.
Gerald and Hartley both become
enamoured of the golden haired
Sybil. Trouble ensues when Julia, a
captivating brunette, consumed with
jealousy conspires with Hartley for
the undoing of Sybil, who, to elude
Hartley's desperate pursuit, throws
herself into the sea. Gerald rows
about all night and falls asleep at
dawn, dreaming of Sybil as Lorelei.
A thrilling drama based On the
''Lorelei' legend is then visualized
on the screen with picturesque set
tings and magnificent water witch
scenes of dazing splendor, the sea
swarming with a huge ensemble OF
alluring water sprites performing
sensational swimming and diving
feats that have never been surpassed.

fish, poultry and other protein foods.
Suggests Stacker List"
Just a few days ago, had a LETT
ter from a hotel man in the state,
complaining of the fact that his and
one other restaurant in the city were
the only ones observing meatless
Tuesday and wheatless Wednesday,
and that his business was being
drawn to the eating places which
were serving foods as usual. Com
ment upon the lack Of patriotism of
both restaurants and patrons is I'M
necessary but believe that some
once to prevent such Stacking. A
slacker's list, to be published for all
to read, might assist in restoring
patriotic sense to both patrons and
their feeders.
The conservation problem as put
up to the private household differs
somewhat from that which confronts
the hotel and restaurant keeper
Mrs. Brown has been accustomed to
spend say $50 a week to feed her
family Of five. She must now, If she
has not before, study food principles,
discover what she may substitute
for meat and for wheat flour, how
she can induce little James to eat
and big James to use less sugar in
his morning coffee. If she is so sit
uated that she cannot possibly spend
more than the average of $40, she
has the further problem of procur-
ing substitutes that are cheap and
at the same time nutritive. The
private household Of today, in other
words, must be as patriotic as it can
afford to be and must strain a pointl
after that.
I'VE have learned that conserva-
ton of food does not mean economy
Of money. The fact is none too cheer |
'ul but it remains a fact and must i
be met as such. If the housewife is !
patriotic she will not waiver when
she discovers that fish costs more |
than beef or that vegetable oils cost
more than butter. She will use them
10 the best of her financial ability
and thereby do her bit"
