It follows: “The appeals of recent months to the American people for such a con- servation of food as would enable us to fulfill our obligations to our own soldiers and our allies abroad have fallen upon willing ears and the re sponse in patriotism and self-denial has been worthy of the best traditions of this great free nation, “Notwithstanding, however, our un- doubtedly great saving of important food staples, and particularly of wheat the disappointing crops of the 1917 Beason and an over-seas demand great er, through the exigencies of war, than we had expected, has brought us to the verge of a grave crisis in the wheat situation that can be overcome by a more vigorous self-denial, a far greater degree of saving by the sub- When: ha sayining we ave elo an ng we hay Tr undertaken. ing 4 ay spaghetti, macaroni, noodles, pastry, cake or bread. | “These meals should be preferably { the evening meals, but that is ene { tirely to the judgment of each indi vidual family. he only exception that should be recognized is the case of invalids or small children. At meals, we can substitute bread made wholly from corn meal, rye, buckwheat or some other cereal or we can use oat meal, bread. tf eit rice or vegetables in place of Substitutes Will Help. “Mr. Hoover also asks that in ad dition to the saving by adoption of seven wheatless meals, we make a further saving in wheat by using as much as possible bread made from a mixture of wheat and other cereals. An appeal therefore, is made in the pame of President Wilson and Mr, Hoover to every man, woman and child and to every Pennsylvania home in which the spirit of patriotism lives to adopt these rules in their dally home {ife and to fulfill them faith- fully and thus discharge the present sacred obligation.” ALL BIG FOOD DEALERS = this YOUR Bank ?
