Mary Had a Little Lamb
By HILDEGAKDE HAWTHORNE of the Vigilantes
We ae being asked to save; but to
save Iran odd way. We are not to
cut do'n on luxuries; we are not to
htop uying the pretty things, the
interring things, the frou-frou and
the ispiration of life, laces, Jewels,
book' pictures, old furniture, charm
ing egligees, automobiles; the list is
onethat can be lengthened indefi
nite'- No! If we should cut down
th list on all these luxuries the na
ti/i might find itself in considerable
♦>uble, with many people out of
c'inploy and many businesses on the
rocks. But when it comes to neces
sities, then indeed. . . .
Yes, we are asked to save on ne
cessities. And the first necessity is
food.
There is a song we have known
since childhood whose first line runs;
"Mary had a little lamb."
As it happened, Mary was satisfied
with what she had. But let us study
the case of Uncle Sam. He, too, has
a little lamb—and a little beef, and
a little pork! Less than he used to
have, with infinitely more demand.
Uncle Sam is not satisfied.
Are you one of the Americans
who eats meat twice, or even three
times, a day? There are such Ameri
cans, and the time has come when
they will be doing the country a
great service by cutting down meat
to one service a day. The farmers'

FRIDAY EVENING, n
stock of food animals is lower than
it should be; the world needs meat
as well as bread. But no one, not
oven a husky n.an working at some
bodily task for eight hours out of
the twenty-four, needs meat three
times a day.
There are two ways of increasing
the world's stock of meat. One is to
breed more animals for slaughter
ing. The other is to cut down un
necessary consumption and to elimi
nate all waste.
Mary's little lamb followed her to
school. Uncle Sam's little lamb can
lead us to school. It can teach us
that meat once a day is healthful,
oftener than that it is likely to bring
a host of stomach troubles, to harden
arteries, to endanger the heart ac
tion, to put unnecessary labor on
the kidneys.
To us women falls the duty of sav.
ing so that the world's meat stock
may be increased in so far that it
will be made to go further. To the
farmer and the stockman falls the
duty of breeding more sheep and
more beeves and more hogs. Let
every woman pledge herself not to
serve meat more than once a day nt
her table, bess often would, be bet
ter still. Let her study the use of
meat substitutes, the delicious cheese
dishes, the thick bean and lentil
scups that can be mado so tasty and
are so nourishing.
No part of the meat should be
thrown away. There comes in an
other saving. Be careful with the
scraps of steak, the ends of ham
bones, the remainder of the cold
lamb or beef. Every cookbook is
full of excellent receipts for the use
of these portions. It is more trouble,
of course, to save and use the frag
ments than to order a new roast.
But it is not so much of a sacrifice
as it is to serve your country in a
trench or a ship or an aeroplane.
And it is, in its way, as important.
Remember, when you save on lux
uries you may be doing harm. When
you save on necessities you are help
ing win the war. You are releasing
what you do not require and what
you' have perhaps been wasting for
the use of men and women and chil
dren who are starving.
Be like Mary. Have a little lamb,
and be satisfied with it. It only
needs proper management, a little
planning, closer study of the cook
book and some change in our waste
ful, habit of eating. It
you cut your consumption of meat
in half, that half will go to someone
who needs it. There is only just so

nuieh meat to be had. It is enough,
if it is carefully and wisely handled.
The breeders will do their share in
increasing this amount, but that is
a slow process. For th! next year or
two it depends on you, the women of
the nation, to make what there is go
as far as possible. There will be no
trouble in finding a market for the
meat you do not eat, nor for the
other necessities on which you man
age to save. The world is clamoring
for them.

DECEDENT CODE
GIVEN APPROVAL
Monumental Work of Com
mission Appointed* by Gov
ernor During 1915
Governor Brumbaugh late yester
day announced his approval of the
new code of laws relatft-e to de
cedents' estates, which was drafted
by the State Decedents Law Com
mission and presented in the House
by Mr. Swartz, Dauphin. The com
mission was composed of Judges
John Marshall Gest, Philadelphia,
and Thomas J. Baldridge, Blair, and
ex-Speaker George E. Alter, Alle
gheny.
Seven bills comprise the code, in
cluding bills relative to intestacy,
which takes effect December 31,
1917; wills also effective on the last
day of this year and applying to
wills of persons dying on that day;
fiduciaries, partitions, revised prices,

ies for many years can be pen
