It lies in yourself. The trouble is that most of our plans end in talk. Most people haven't got the will power to act, where their pampered appetites are concerned. They talk about boycott- ing eggs and boycotting other high- priced things. Having breathed ter- rible threats against the wicked food boosters, they go home and, over a sumptuous meal of high-priced foods, to do. Oh, but we are a weak-necked peo- ple when it comes to our personal comforts and luxuries. In bright lexicon the word “self-denial” is not found. Many of us rather pride ourselves on having what we want. Money no object, you know. We want what we want when we want it Thrift is rather a disgrace nowa- days. We want to be “sports.” Would we pinch a nickel? I guess not. We wouldn’t even pinch a dollar, even those of us who only make twelve or fiftcen of them in a week. No, sir. We're sports, good spenders. spenders” generally keep the milkman and are the despair of bill collectors? The French can teach us some- thing on this subject. The most pol- ished people and at the same time the most thrifty people in the world are the French. Before the war they had almost twice as much money per capita saved as we. The Frenchman will “pinch” a centime and he isn’t ashamed of it. When he thinks a thing is too high he isn’t afraid to say so. But he is a real “sport.” When it comes to helping the less fortunate he is right there. Today, in the hour of his country’s need, he is cheerfully paying the expense of the war out of his enormous savings. A French housewife would no more think of throwing away a loaf of bread becavse it is stale than she would think of buying spmething that she thinks is a couple of sous too high. We need more individuality, more real pride and less “tinhorn sport” pride which compels some men to give a waiter an exorbitant tip for fear the waiter will consider him a cheap skate. The Frenchman eats a 40-cent meal and gives a 4-cent tip, for which he gets a bow and hearty thanks. We need to cultivate the virtue of self-denial. If we think eggs are too high we ought to have the gump- tion to say to our appetite, “Nothing doing, old boy, till eggs get cheaper.” Then the “egg king” in Chicago would soon be lying awake nights worrying about his 1,000,000,000 eggs in cold storage. And soon he would be “broke,” as he deserves to be, by the wrath of a strong people, capable of the old-fashioned virtues of self- denial and thrift. We would be better off, physically and financially, if we cut out the high- priced foods, and cut down on the amount of our food, too. We eat too much.
