When you are asked to have a beef- ess meal each day and cut down Your allowance of sugar to one lump for Cup of tea. or coffee you scarcely realize what it means. When you He asked to eat fish instead of beef and substitutes for wheat it look-s a1-- linost like trifling with a big subject. é'mle average man’s idea, if you are going to save in a big way. is to cut out everything you don't want him to eat. Canada's Food Controller start- ed out with the idea of Educating: the people to save, not to do without alto- gether, and there is vast difference in the principle. You can only judge of the results of saving by waiting for a period and adding up your savings. The wealth of the French nation be- fore the war largely consisted in the savings the peeple deposited in their banks, which aggregated a huge ‘amount. I1: was out of these small savings that the huge indemnity after the Frencoâ€"Prus-sian war was paid. Calculations on the basis of returns actually received show that the sav-. ings in December in the United States’ were for meats 22,733,000 pounds, and these had increased in January to' 24,418,000 pounds. In wheat flour, the saving was 9,089,000 pounds which ' in January had increased to 12,790,000 ‘ bounds. The US. Food Administta-; tion beh'eves that the saving of wheat, flour during the month of February amounted to considerably over 15,000,- 000 pound-s. Multiply these figures iby twelve and you get a fairly good yidea what was saved m be sent to the EAl‘lies, and how many soldiers were‘ tied on account of it. And nobody inl :the United States suffered from it. ,The same is true of Canada. ’From geturns so far as they have been re- celv'ed show in public eating houses savings from 25 to 60 per cent. The use of fish has increased considerably over 100 per cent. That means that ‘rnn equivalent in beef and pork was sent overseas. The moral is never mind what your neighbor does, do it yourself. If you have to come to rationing it will be time enough to call your neighbor to account. Keep Household Accounts. . Since the cost of living has advanc- led so rapidly in the last few years, much attention has been paid to re- itlucing' éertain items of expenditure. iSuch efforts are more or less futile unless we are able to draw deductions he aid us in the future. 3 I believe every housewife should keep acoun‘ts. She should know just {what is spent each month for food pro- ducts. The bud-get is a practical means of reducing expense. There is a great advantage in mar-l sting in person, and there is nothing More important than the utilizing of the leftovers in planning the meals for the day. It goes without saying that the selection of foods that give the greatest nutritive va'ue for the east outlay is a step in the direction (of rgeonofiiy. - This tends toward the keeping of rbudgets, and is the means of regulat- {ing family expenditures, as opposed We the haphazard methods of the past.

The Buyingol‘a single pair of shoes is an event that occupies a person but a few moments two or three times a yearâ€"but to meet the accumulated demand of a nation's individuals. it requires. the whole resources of a gigantic industry. Arnes Holden cCrcady are truly "Shoemakers to the Nation." It is a title justified by their size and the importance of their business. It may bé a. revelation :0 many Canadians to know that to supply them with proper footwear, this firm maintains huge factories each with many acres of floor space, and hun- dreds of intricate, almost human. n1a~ chinesâ€"facilities and equipmpnt suffi- cient to turn out 8.000 pairs of shoes every working day.
