thing has been very emphatic and conspicuous this yea Iho vast products of the soil arising from the campaign of food in augurated last spring by the au thorities add carried on at high speed by the

war appears in the De cember issue of Good where tho celebrated food specialist Dr Harvey W Wiley writing on Paying for tho War declares that a nation is unconquerable only so long its women are unsubdued To quote The housewife is the one who seems to be most keenly af fected I am writing this war article in the hope that in view of the facts which condition tho present slate of affairs who will hereafter not grumble at the in creased prices- which she is now called upon to pay It is not good for the country to have any large class of our people com plaining Patriotism means more than taking off ones hat to the flag standing up when The Banner is played and shouting oneself hoarse at a passing procession This Is the ebullition not patriotism True patriotism consists in doing something which is a sacrifice or something that touches us both in and in sentiment in behalf of our country In my mind there is no ques tion of the constitutionality of the Food Administration Act If iho government can run the postof fice control the militia and re quisition our soldiers and sailors for service under the constitu tion then the same principle can be applied to every material thing The great danger of our pres ent law is hat it is discriminat ory Such things as food fuel and beverage arc now to be na tionally controlled A law of this kind should apply to every com modity so that no class of our citizens could enjoy any advan tage over another I have just read what seems to be reliable statistics showing that he actual deathrate on the battle front is only about cent of all who are engaged It is true that that one may be the one that some one of us loves Op the other hand if for every man who dies in battle a dozon lose their lives at home by rea son of famine or Insufficient food and especially if his be children then the desolation is appalling It is difficult to re alize that our battles are fought at home we hardly realize that it is the women of the world who are really its fighters We do not understand as fully as we should that a nation is unconquerable only so long as its women are un subdued sight of the little known Russian pooplo themselves the

scien ces The doctor seemed to feel that he would lose part of his authority if lie look the layman into his confidence instead of nodding wisely and saying no thing Even today in some quarters lingers tho prejudice against the proclamation of a medical discovery in the popular as opposed to the technical press Bui such an altitude is anomalous in science and is doomed to extinction is rap idly becoming a disgrace for the intelligent layman to be ignorant concerning his own body in and illness and Magazine believes that the peo- have a right to the fullest and latest information on a sub ject of such vital import to them as the character and cure of dis ease In the December number Dr Henry Smith Williams tells in simple clear and accurate language the story of pneu monia and tuberculosis a story as important and exciting as the war news For the battlefield of the bacilli is as thickly strewn with corpses as full of heroism and strategy as are the battle fields If reports were to come from somewhere in France writes Dr Williams that six thousand American sol diers had been killed outright in the current week we should all listen with bated breath But the death of a corresponding number hero at home this week and last week and every week year in and year out causes no comment whatever The Ameri can people have been partially roused to the danger and im portance of this malady but they are by no means fully awake yet The ravages of tuberculosis are brought home to us in a vivid and terrible fashion by the statistics cited by Dr Williams If he stopped here the outlook would appear discouraging indeed But he does more than describe He holds out a new hope in the dis covery of a of treatment that has already been tested and has met with spectacular suc cess

retail merchants throughout Canada especially in the smaller towns and villages who would gladly Bub- scribe or subscribe more for Victory Bonds if it were not for the amount of money they are carrying on their books and the uncertain- as to when much of it will be paid The farmers who deal with these local merchants are not the least blameable in this respect for they are apt to let their accounts run until convenient to payi them while the merchant knowing that payment ultimately is certain is unwilling to press them If everyone luring the last week of cam paign would make an effort to pay his bill to the local merchant the latter would be glad to increase his Victory Loan subscription Thousands of farmers have received substan tial sums of money for their crops and are able to pay their accounts before December 1st just as well as afterward If you are one of them see that you pay up during the last week in November and thus give your merchant the opportunity he no doubt desires to subscribe for the Victory Bonds that he possibly can and do not forget to subscribe yourself to the utmost of your power Patriotism demands it and so does selfinterest for only by a heavy
