M" uountree a Bride.
The following from Wednesday's
Wilmington Morning Star will be of
much interest in this iCity, the bride
having extensive and prominent fam
ily connections here:
"Of pleasing interest to a ho3t of
friends in Wilmington and elsewhere
throughout the State where both arc
socially prominent, will be the an
nouncement of the marriage of Miss
Cynthia . Polk .Rpuntree, daughter of
Judge (and Mns. , George Rountree",
and Lieut Sidney G. MacMillan,
Company L, Seventh Infantry, U. S.
A., 'now stationed at Camp Greene,
Charlotte, N..C. .
"The wedding was solemnized at
half after nine o'clock last night in
St. James' Protestant Episcopal
Church in the presence of relatives
and ' a few intimate friends, the
Rev. Wm. II. Milton, b. I)., rector
of the parish, officiating. The cere
mony took iplace earlier than had
been appointed on account of the
fact that Lieutenant MaoMillan's fur

short by an urgent telegram, recall

announcement will come with some

and acquaintances of the young peo

highest esteem in a wide circle of ac
quaintances here and throughout the
State. Both are members of leading
North Carolina families and were
born and reared in tbis city.
"The wedding was very quiet,

A Warsaw special gives the fol
lowing account of the wedding at
that Duplin County town recently of
Miss Anna Peirce and Mr. James
Hines of Greenville, son of Mr. Lovit
Ilines of Kinston and a well-known
former resident of this City:
"Of interest to many in several
states was the marriage, marked by
olegant simplicity and informality,
no cards being issued, which was
solemnized at 7:30 o'clock in the
Kiiiot Presbyterian Church on the
evening of New Year's Day, when
Miss Anna Peirce became the bride
of James Murphy Hines, of Green
ville. "The architectural arrangement of
the church added effectively to the
decorations of smilax, mistletoe and
Southern pine, the chancel being bril
liantly illuminated with numberless
wax tapers. ' On each side of the al
tar, were tall white pedestals, en
twined with smilax and surmounted
with silver candelabra.
"Mrs. James Hicks Peirce render
ed a musical program of beautiful
selections, prior to the ceremony,
while the 'Bridal Chorus' from "The
Rose-Maiden' was sung by a chorus
of voices, as the wedding party en
tered in' the following order: First,
the ushers, H. Faison, Peirce, Thomas
B. reirce, of Durham; John B. Hill,
Phil Hines, and Henry Tull, of Kins-
ton, and Dr. James Williams. These

ation' of cerise taffeta anil silver-embroidered
lace, carrying shower bo
quet o valley lilies and orchids.
Then cK-me the matron of honor, Mrs.
Erie Best, dressed in white georg
ette, embroidered with crystal beads,
with corsage of violets. Immediate.
!y preceding the bride was Master
James Hicks Peirce, Jr., carrying the
ring in the heart of a rose.
"The bride, handsome in a Paquin
model of white duchess satin, with
court-ttajn, and embellished with,
opalescent and peart trimming, the
wedding veil of tulle being fastened
with wreath of orange blossoms,
while she carried a shower bouquet
of lilks of the valley, entered on the
arm of her brother, Jas. II. Peirce,
who gave her in marriage. She was
followed by the little train-bearer,
Miss Lewellyn L'est, lovely in a frock
of pink tulle. She was met at the al
tar by the groom with his brother,
Harvey Hines, of Kinston, who acted
as best man. Here the vows were
spoken, Rev. George iMathis, pastor
of the bride, officiating.
"Mr. and Mrs. Hines left on the
Noithbound train for New York and
other Northern cities for a honey
moon trip, after which they will be'
at home in Greenville, where Mr.
Hines is engaged in business.
Mrs. Hines is the youngest daugh
ter of Mrs. T. B. Peirce, and is an
attractive and talented young lady,
deservedly popular with a host of

that the famous old root and herb

From Mr. Hoover Vital
" SugfffestMWU Given Food
Instruction, Card for Every
Housebo in Entire State.
Raleigh, Pee. 22. The State Food
Administration. has Jut let contracts
for the printing . ot 400.000 supplemen
tary home ln,aructlon cards to be dis
tributed one for each household In the
entire State. The Issuance of these
additional Instruction cards Is prompt
ed by the Increased seriousness of the
food situation lh Europe both from tho
standpoint ot military, necessity and
(or the relief of hundreds of thou
sands ot Europeans who are threaten
ed with starvation unless Immediate
relief can be given them.
The supplementary instruction card
calls for a "porkles" day each week
in addition to "Meatless" and "Wheat
less" days, and for a wheatless and
meatless meal each day. The con
sumer is urged) to. use sugar on a basis
of not more than three pounds per per
son per nionthMr. Hoover, on one
side of the card, frankly and Impres
sively presents the food situation ai
it is.
"As a nation we ear. and waste 80
per cent more protein than we require
to maintain health," the directions de
clare. "Therefore, we can reduce the
amount of mfaf we eat without harm.
We eat and waste 240 per cent mora
fat than Is accessary."
What Is Called for Now.
Aside from the general directions
contained Irf'tneflrst hpme instruction
card tho new card nsks everyone, to
maintain riglireeonomy of at least:
ONK WHEATLESS day each week
and one WHEATLESS MEAL each
day, the' wheatless day to bo Wednes
day, By wheatless we mean to eat
no wheat products. ..
ONE MEALEBS DAY each week,
which shall be Tuesday and one meat
less meal eachvday. By meatless wo
mean to eat .no red. meat beef, pork,
mutton, veal." lambjljno preserved
meat beef, bacon, ham or lard.
ONE PORKLESS iay each week In
addition to Tuesday, which shall be
Saturday. By,nqrkless we mean no
fresh or salted jork, bacon, lard or
ham.
SUGAR Ton can" materially reduce
sugar by reducing the use of candy
and sweet drinks. We will make ev
ery endeavor to see that the country is
provided with a supply of household
sugar on the basis of three pounds of
sugar for each; person per month. Do
not consume more.
We Are Wasteful People.
Human foodstuffs comprise three
principal elements:
PROTEIN; jMalnly present In meat,
beans, fish, poultry, milk, and to some
extent in grains,'
FATS: that Is, butter, cream, lard,
bacon, margarine, cooking fats, beans,
cotton seed oil and . other vegetable
Oils. , :
CARBOHYDRATES: Grainsugar,
potatoes and other vegetables.
As a nation we eat and waste 80 per
cent more protein thui we require to
maintain health. -Therefore, we can
reduce the amount of meat we eat
without harm. .
We eat and, waste 240 per cent more
fat than Is necessary.
Of the cartoydrat we can Just
as well coniuije corn,' oats and other
cereals as wheat and we have abund
ant supplies of potatoes and vegeta-

Do not limit ;jeur supplies ef milk
and table butterrlmt -ceasume It all.
Don't waste any. ir
You can reduce the consumption ot
fats by redaoUf Pastry and fried
foods. ''!
Remember le. Gospel of the Clean
Plate, the serving of small portions,
the purchase ef less suapUea.
What Heardlng Doea.
Any person la the United States who
boy more foodstuffs than he custom
arily keeps at home in peace times is
defeating the Food Administration iu
its purposeJa ecure a Just distribu
tion of feod and in its great endeav
ors to reauce prices. The hoarding ot
food la fcauseholds is not only unnec
erEary, as the government is protect
lag Uia toad rtpply of our people, but
It Is selhsU anbHa a rmw-oF-irgfc
price.
Such ' actions multiplied by thou
sands lncrcare the demands upon our
railways for cars and already, becaune
of our military demands, it is with ex
treme dilTUulty we ran now move the
vttully B6t'i-ui)' food to iiiarRcl.
There is mm h Insidious propsnanda
In the country acslnst conservation
and increased production. All oppo
sition to thene servlres Is direct as
sistance tJ the enemy. ,
The Situation Grave.
The reverse aide ot the card carries
a message to thoso who have signed
the pledge card ot the Food Adminis
tration. It Is as follows: ,
To Members of tho United States
Food Administration:
The food Ituation In Europe la far
graver than when the preliminary sur
vey ot the food supply ot tho world
for this year wae made. We have an
abundance tor ourselves, and it Is the
firm policy of the Food Admlnlstra-
lion, vj lav proTeutiuu vi ryuii, w j
retain for our people an ample supply i
of every essential foodAtuffff. The har
vests of our Allies have proved lean
than we had contemplated, and the
great curtailment of shipping by tho
submarines during the last tew
mouths has further prevented them
from access to more remote markets.
Beyond the demands of tho AUI.-s
there is a call upon us by the friendly
neutrals, for food supplies, and it wa
cannot at least in part respond to
these neutral calls, starvation on an
unparalleled scale must ensue.
Greater Sacrifice Necessary.
Food has now taken a dominant po
sition in the war, and we must ask
the American people to sacrifice far
more than was at first thought neces
sary. We have exported tho whole of
the surplus of the wheat from this
harvest after reserving to ourselves an
amount sufficient for our normal con
sumption of seed and flour until the
next harvest, and therefore the amount
ot wheat flour that the United States
can contribute to mix with the war
bread ot our Allies during this .winter
will be simply the amount that our
people reduce their consumption
month by ' month. In other wordsJ
every grain ot wheat or . Its products
that the AU'es receive from the Uni
ted States from now until the next
harvest wjlll be exactly the amount
which oiijr people have saved each
month on their behalf.
The Allies today ask for 25 per cent
more meat and fats (pork, dairy prod
ucts and vegetable oils) than we con
sider our monthly production permits
ns to send them without trenching on
our own supplies, or, on tho other
hand, unless we can consume less. Due
to the shortage in shipping, our avail
able sugar supplies must be. less than
normal from the present time forward.
, every Particle Saved Will CPuntj,
.Thus, every particle of diminished
consumption by the American people
lS one particle more, for the soldiors,
men, women and children of our Al
lies and for the starving people in oth
er countries. This is a personal obli
gation upon-every one of us toward
some Individual abroad ,who will suf
fer privation to the extent of our own
individual negligence.
If we are to reduce the consump
tion of the few products which we
should export abroad we will need to
eat a larger proportion of many dif
ferent foodstuffs which we cannot ex
port and which we have at home. For
this reason we MUST NOT waste ANY
foodstuffs. A great many Individuals
In our population eat far more food
than is necessary to maintain their
health and strength. In this eraergen
vy only the simplest ot living is patri
otic. We want no person in the Uni
ted States to eat less than is required
for good health and full strength, for
in this emergency America requires
every atom of the productive power of
our people. While many can eat less,
all of our population can substitute
other foodstuffs for the few that are
vitally needed for export.
We must not- overlook the fact Hint
Russia collapsed not becauso of. the
Germans on her borders but largely
because of the failure to organize and
feed her own citizens, and, IP WE
ARE TO emerge victorious from this
war, we cannot risk the collapse of
another of our Allies from this same
cause. There is no waste of food
among any of our Allies there Is the
most drastic reduction in their con
sumption; there is actual privation
among their women and children;
there Is starvation in Belgium.
Problem far Individual.
We hare already Issued a series of
suggestions in the Home Card a card
that is now hanging in over ten mil
lions ot homes. These suggestions
have already shown important results,
and to these we now add others. The
problem of saving in food is a local
and Individual one, so that more pre
cise and definite rules just to all can
not be formulated. It is a matter for
the conscientious consideration of
every individual that he or she should
eat only that which Is necessary to
maintain bodily health and jtreugth
and unselfishly to select those food
stuffs the use of which relieves Inter
national necessities. In this winter
of 191S lies the period when there will
be tested in this great tree country of
outs the question as to whether or not
our people are capable of veluntsry
Individual self-sacrifice to save Ue
world. ; . ' .'
