QUENTIN ROOSEVELT. = s In the last two or three weeks the name of Quentin Roose- velt has sounded loudly in our ears. Beyond the prejudices born of political creeds, we see in thé death of this young aviator a significance which is neither modified nor emphasized by our mental attitude toward the policies which we have learned to connect inseparably with the Roosevelt name. iy Democracy offers to its leaders no immunity from personal obligation for thMemseives or for their children, nor can any nan here accept it as a prequisite of high office. The Roosevelt family is well trained in this school, and it is with pride that we point to a quality in our national make-up which we share with those other democracies on whose side we fight. The number of deputies elected to the French chambers who have fallen in battle furnishes a roster which would be appalling, were it less glorious; and the same condition exists in England, which is a republic in everything but name, with the title of king preserved as a mediaeval survival to be used occasionally as a rubber stamp. Two of England’s ex-premiers have lost sons on the battlefield, and both houses of parliament have seen among their own ranks how great a price in human life must be paid for the perpetuation of the democratic principles. But are there any gaps yét made in the family of the Potsdam despot? —_—0 » HERE IS THE VIEWPOINT OF ONE WIDE-AWAKE. ' We got the “other side” in a letter of correspondence for the Weekly Pioneer, yesterday, and it threw a new light on a subjéct that at present seems to be paramount in many minds. Reference is made to berry-picking. “For some unknown reason, scores upon scores of individuals swarm farms and lands belonging to farmers and without the least invitation flock over the holdings of the industrious farmers and help themselves to the berries, seeming to believe the farmers have no use for them and that they are valueless to a farm family. ; The correspondent naively says such berries cost taxes-to a farmer, same as stock on a merchant’s shelves, and that the farmers wouldn’t think of coming to Bemidji and helping themselves to whatever they desired in stores and walk out. Not a bad observation at that. —_0 SEEMS TO US' INJUDICIOUS. Three men have just been arrested in New Jersey for trying to blow up munition plants. Two of them were caught red- handed, yet all three have been granted bail. The bail is, of course, heavy, but when a miscreant is caught in the act it gseems hardly logical to grant bail at all. There is always un- limited pro-German money ready to guarantee the re-appear- ance of the accused, and those who furnish it consider the offer an act of patriotic sacrifice. There is a possibility that in- judicious leniency might tend to encourage further acts of sabotage. : s Now Prince Lichnowsky has been expelled from the Ger- man parliament because he has told the truth—the most heinous of crimes in the judgment of the Hun. 0. Do not fail to put in your coal. If you wait until you need .it next winter, you are likely to find black diamonds as scarce and hard to get as the blue-white ones. ——O America is pouring out her money and her blood like water, to the end that there shall never another Hohenzollern sit on the throne of the German empire. o Overeating kills people physically, procrastination kills them financially, and dissipation kills them morally. In either case they are “some dead.” —_—— There is nothing wrong with either the morale or the morals of the American army. V) — The Russian situation may be described as confusion worse and worse confounded. 0. The German “peace offensive” will never lead to a peace offensive to the allies. = EVERY HOME ‘ MUST SERVE BEGIN IN THE [KITCHEN FOOD osaw caemer DS TALK IT OVER BEMIDJI GAS €O, ™" FUEL i TELEPHONE 9322 s ] Entered at the postoffice’at Bemidjl, Minn., as: second:class® matter THE BEMIDJI =¥ n IQUESTIONS ANSWERED . - CONSERVATION What does conservation- mean?” - | ~“The preservation of- our. natural ‘resources for economical use, 50 as to secure-the-greatest: good: to the greatest number.” How_can we conserve food? By reducing consumption; by cut- ting out waste; by.using’some-other . foods in place of the foods we.are asked to:save; by using local prod- [ ucts and thus:saving-transportation. It. is true that many people eat too- much? { Probably 30 per cent of American people either eat or take into their. kitcheus' much more- food than is necessary. ‘Does the Food Administration ob- ject to teas and refreshments at parties? = Not if conservation rules are ob- served; but' as”a general principle of thrift it does not encourage the habit of eating between meals. How can those people who neither waste nor- eat too much help the » Food ‘Administration? By substituting: foods that are plentiful for the wheat, meat, fats, and sugar that are needed for ship- ping “overseas, y How-can I find out about these prob- lems? By writing to the Federal Food Administrator in your state for the free publications: of the United -~ States Food Administration. What are these publications? “A’list-of them is givem:at:the end of this primer. . 18 food .conservation really necessary? So necessary that we may lose the war unless we conserve. Why is food conservation necessary? Because men have been with- drawn from farm and fleld in Eu- rope to fight; because bad weather had made bad crops; because great food supplies have been sunk. by submarines; because there is vastly increased demand for food for sol- diers, and people workiug in war supplies. How has the wheat crop in France been, affected? It has fallen off more than half. What is the bread ration in France? 10% ounces daily per person, with constant possibility of being' low- ered. \ What is the situation in France in re- gard to other supplies? France is producing 1 gallon of milk where shc formerly produced 21%. Oils, fats, eggs, and meat are scarce. ) What is the present situation in Italy? There is extreme need of cereals, meat, and fats. p How dependent is England on foreign countries: for cereals? < She has to import three-fifths ot \the cereals needed. What are the present needs in Eng- land? P Meats, fats, and cereals are ur- gently needed. Why is American help vitally neces- sary? Because America is nearest and)| best able to supply food with the least exposure to submarines Is not the seriousness of the food sit- uation exaggerated? It 'is not; food is essential to win- ning the war. A 1l-ounce slice of bread wasted is a bullet thrown away; to waste food is treason to causé®and country. Have the other warring nations been forced to practice food conserva- tion? Yes; if Germany had not done so she would be defeated today. Why is the housekecper asked to shoulder the burden of _conserva- tion? Because 80 large an amount of the food raised in this country passes through her hands. How can the little that one person can do help? b The little that one person can do, multiplied by the millions of help- ers, mounts up to vast sums. What are some figures showing the re- sults from small daily savings? One l-ounce slice of bread saved each day in the 22,000,000 homes of| the country would tota! 9,625,000 pound loaves saved a week—approx- imately 35,648 barrels of flour saved. One ounce of sugar saved a day would total about 26,736 barrels saved a week. Will the small individual savings ac- tually get to the Allles and help win the war? Unquestionably, yes. Every time you eat a wheat substitute it is ®x- actly as if you stretched out your hand and gave the wheat you have saved to some fighter or worker in trench or fleld or factory “over there.” . Why does the Food Administration ask a person with plenty of money to refrain from buying more food than is absolutely necessary “~for health? Because it is a patriotic duty to eat only what is necded for health so that food may be saved to help win the war. What are the foods which we must especially save? ‘Wheat—Meat—Sugar—Fats. Why must we send these particular foods? Because they contain the most concentrated nourishment in the most easily shippable form. The cost of the United States Food Administration for its first year's work has been less than two cents for every person in the United States. DAILY PIONEER e . the condition of/your teeth.
