HIGH COST OF LIVING
 HERE AND LOVER
 THERE" COMPARED

Next to the latest news of the war, the most popular subject of conver- sation is the high cost of living.
 "Yes," complained woman both of whose hands were loaded with dia- monds, 'The Food Administration asks us to save wheat, but many of the sub stitutes are more expensive and in these days of the high cost of living every penny counts
 It is true that some of the wheat substitutes do cost cent or two per pound more than wheat, but this can net be helped for they cost more to mill.
 If they sold for twice. three times, yes even if other cereals sold for ten times more than wheat, however, the Food Administration would still urge the patriotic housewives of America to use them. for it's purpose in doing so is not to show how cheaply you can run your household, but how to help win the war by saving the food the Allies need.
 Let the American woman, who con- plains of the high cost of living and hes:tates to pay these few extra cents that possibly some of the wheat sub- stitutes cost her. read the following letter which was received by the Bel gian High Commission of the United Statess, from Malines. in the occupied portion of Belgium.
 We are all we'll We have told you about the heightened cost of living, but what will you say to this: Butter 22 francs (s4.40) kilo (22 pounds.) ) meat Ii francs $2.S0); bacon 21 francs (s4.00); eggs l franc 10 cen times (22 cents) each; bag of pota tees 125 francs $25.O0D"

SLAV REDS DECREE
 IS MOST SHOCKING
 CREED IN HISTORY
Seattle Star June 6)

What is probably the most shock ing creed in history is reported to have been promulgated by the anarch- ist soviet in control of Saratov, Rus sia. The decree virtually annuls mar riage. and subjects women between IT and 32 to community rules. Infants are to be taken from their mothers and reared in institutions.
 Following is part of the alleged de- cree of anarchists at SaratOv, Rus sia, which calls for the socialization of women:
 This decree is proclaimed by the Free Association of Anarchists of Saratov, Russia:
 DECREE-The private possession of women is hereby abolished.
 NOTIVE-Since the most beautiful specimens of the fair sex have in the 1 past been limited by marriage to the possession of the bourgeois man, the correct continuation of the human
 race has been greatly impeded, and
 great injustice and inequalities have resulted. Such weighty arguments
 have induced the anarchists to pro- claim the following decree:
 ARTICLE No. 1.-After March l,
 1918, the right of man to possess a
 woman between the ages of 17 and
 32 is hereby abolished. The age of
 women shall be certified by birth cer-
 tifcates or passports, and in the case of failure to produce these documents, , the age of the woman will be judged by block committee" according to the appearance of the woman and the ! testimony of witnesses.
 ARTICLE No 2.-This decree does i not affect women having more than ] five children.
 i ARTICLE No. 3.-The former hus tand shall release his wife from per i sonal ownership, but may call upor 1, Ter whenever She wishes. In case O ]. :, asistanA by the husband to this de ; cree, he shall forfeit his right accord l ci by this decree.

EAT ENOUGH BUT NO MORE

The war time definition of cOnser- vation should include actual reduction in consumption.
 But this is no time to endanger ones health" war worker was heard to argue.
 Quite right. Full working strength of every man ana woman is needed during these days of national stress as never before. It is not, however, a question of suddenly eating less than is actually needed to sustain life and health but of discovering the facts that the American man and woman has long eaten more than is necessary or wholesome.
 1 As an experiment. group of war workers deliberately reduced their diet 2OGe below the nutritional stand ard of 100 grams protein and 5000 cal ories every "A hours. In period cov- ering six months they found their powers of endurance and their physi- cal strength did not suffer, but actu- ally increased. They lost surplus fat, but that was all.
 i During this time one of the number had typhoid fever and his illness was regarded with extraordinary interest in the light of this reduced diet. His case proved to be a perfectly normal che, his recovery no slower than usual and he immediately resumed the self imposed diet.
 Food saving should imply cutting of
 all unnecessary consumption.
