lre FOOD CARD.
Food cards will be next In our in
trinsic scheme of existence, If present
plans hit on all twelve cylinders in
perfect rotation and rythm, which will,
in a manner of speaking, put crimp
In the old nose bag.
Food cards are in use in England.
and they cause distress to only one
class of people-those who read the
comic jokes about them in Punch
and "Tit-Bits." 1t seems when food
cards came out several persons tried
to eat them, don't you know, thinking
from the name that was what they
were for (haw-haw) and all that TOM
myrot.
A food card really should be taken
seriously, for it is a serious institution.
A man learns this when he goes on a
trip without one and has nothing to
eat but his words. But certain family
arrangements may be made which re-
lieve the difficulties. If you are fond
of meat, have mother-in-law who is
a vegetarian and use her meat card.
T"'-e FOOD care of this mother-in-law
and don't let her go and live with
anybody else.
1t is also a wise precauion to raise
all the children to be vegetarians.
Their meat cards will help keep father
going. Summing up the entire situa-
ton, if people stick to the food cards,
they will not eat more than twice as
much as is good for them. and lot
of indigestion and govt specialists will
have to go out of business.
The food card, long may it wave.
