EAT ENOUGH BUT NO MORE.
The war time definition of conserva-
tion should include an actual reduction
in consumption. _
But this is no time to endanger
one’s healthfi’ a war worker was heard
to argue. '
Quite right. The full working
strength of every man and woman is
needed during these days of national
stress as never before. It is not, how-
ever, a question of suddenly eating
less thou is actually needed to sustain
life and health but of discovering the
fact that the American man and wom-
an has long eaten more than is neces'
aary or wholesome. fig in,
As an experiment a group of war
workers deliberately reduced their diet
20 per cent below the nutritional
standard of 100 grams protein ‘and
3,000 calories every 24 hours. in a pe-
riod covering six months they found
their powers of endurance and their
physical strength did not sufi’er, but
actually increased. They lost surplus
fat, but that was all. ‘
During this time one ofrtbe number
had typhoid fever and his illness was
regarded with extraordinary interest
in the light of this reduced diet. His
case proved to be‘n'perf’ectly normal
one, his recovery no‘ slower than usual.
and he immedia'teiy’r‘éttumed the self-
imposed diet. '4 '
Food saving should imply cutting off
all unnecessary consumption.

If anything had been needed to en-
sure the success of the New Eilgland
conference of the National \i'onlanii
Party, it was supplied by the news of
the postponement of the vote in the
Senate last Friday. The statement
that the amendment is imperilicd by
the lack of two votes has aroused the
‘Suffritglstsof the. whole country, and
’ofiers of help have poured in at the
headquarters of the Connecticut
Branch of the National Woman's party.
The conference, which is to be held on
May 29th, is not exclusively a Connec-

women who are responsible for all the
arrangements, and Miss Catherine

We arrived in due time on that. beautiful shore,
Where sinners and saints have landed before;
With clamhooks and baskets, there down by the sea,
We looked for those places where clams ought to be
Success crowned’our efforts; soon punctures \vcre found,
Presumably made by the clams in the ground.
We dug for two hours. through rlonos, dirt and sand,
When Fletcher discovered the Week ofa clam.
He picked it up gently. then threw it away,
As the odor spread over Ram's island Bay.
