Violation of Belgium's
Neutrality BY Germany

Belgium is so situated that it's own
er, if powerful state, might endanger
the safety of England, France, or Ger
many, and dominate the Rhine and
the English Channel. Largely because
of this a special treaty, signed April
10, 1889, by Austria, France, Great
Britain, Prussia. and Russia, as well
as Belgium, guaranteed that Belgium
should form an Independent and per-
petually neutral state. 1t shall be
bound to observe such neutrality to-
ward all other states"
On Aug. 9, 1879, Prussia reaffirmed
it's fixed determination to respect the
neutrality of Belgium so long as the
same shall! be respected by France"
and agreed with Great Britain "for
the (joinD defense of the same" in
case it should be violated by France.
Despite these guarantees Germany
made military plans to attack France
by way of Belgium, and after 1906 be-
gan to construct startegic railways to
the Belgian frontier, and the fears of
the Belgians as well as of the French
were aroused. But the German chan
cellOr, when questioned in the Reich
stag, reiterated Germany's determine,
ton to abide by her solemn promise,
and positive assurances were given
the Belgian government. as late as
1913. that Germany would respect the
neutrality she had guaranteed.

organized which did much to relieve
men from the fields and help other
women with their gardens. Gardens
were started in town and in the coun-
try on larger scale than ever before.
Even the children had gardens. So
much foodstuff never was produced
before in Wayne county.
There was call for sorghum and
farmers raised sorghum in such large
quantities that several mills were put
up for grinding the cane. Food pro-
duction supplemented the work of the
food clubs and home economies in
that it instructed the women in the
raising of the products which they
were instructed in. canning, conserv-
ing and substituting. Poultry and
bees were also raised in larger guam
titles under the direction of the food
production division.
While a great deal of gardening
was done in town the burden of food
production fell upon the women OF
the township. The work was greatly
assisted by the 14-minute women who
made speeches in behalf of conserva-
ton and production than on any other
subjects.
c. E. Hutchens, one of the six state
food inspectors under DR.. Barnard
said that Wayne county was one OF
the first and one of the best organized
of all the counties which was a trib-
ute paid not to Wayne county but to
the women.

Food Conservation Necessary;
Women Learn TO Use Substitutes

tributed the leaflets sent out from In
dianapolis.
Then the food clubs were organized.
There were between 20 and 80 clubs
started, one in ecah of the Is town
ships, in Wayne township, and many
in the city wards. Each club had it's
chairman and helpers. Demonstra-
tons in cooking and canning were Civ
en- to. the club and women were in
structed in the use of substitutes and
recipes distributed to them. One of
the most famed of the war recipes
was the Marshall bread" which was
acclaimed 'the only digestible war
bread"
Mrs. Ebert Walker Shirk was vice
chairman of the food clubs and a
splendid organizer and tireless work
er. Three of the clubs, one of them
colored club, are still in existence
under different names.
Throughout the war women learned
how to use substitutes so that wheat
could be saved and shipped abroad for
the use of the soldiers. All the time
the newspapers were publishing illu-
strated canning instructions and rec
ipes which taught how to conserve and
can the much needed foodstuffs.
Enough could never be said for the
part played by the school teachers in
the conservation program. Through
out the county they taught conserva-
ton to the children and gave demon
STATIONS in cooking and canning be-
sides offering every encouragement in
the war garden movement.
Increase Production.
Food conservation alone was not
enough in itself but there had to be
increased food production as well.
Mrs. D. w. Scott, chairman of Food
Production headed the work in Wayne
county. AS in all other drives, the
women in the townships responded
wonderfully to the call for increased
food production. Hoeing clubs were

school garden army. In similar way
the commissions book on canning and
drying, was distributed and given Of
fetal recognition in the educational
world.
Officials in charge of the war gar
den enterprises expressed their graft
fication at the success of the garden
movement among the school children
OF America. The interest thus awak-
ened and the practical knowledge thus
acquired by the young gardeners, they
regarded as one of the most impor-
tant national benefits of the war, and
one which will be of Unreasonable
worth in it's influence on American
citizenship. "-..
