Page who has just, returned from a conference of State Food Adminis trators with Mr. Hoover and his staft at Washington. “There must be a reconstructicn cf our personal relations and of out attitude. Our relations and attitude must be determined by a consideration of their influence upon the winning of the war. “There must be intensified effort in every phase of life. “We must not only substitute but we must economize. We must eal less, wezw less, spend less money for non-essentials, conserve not only food stuffs and clothing but labor as well. Every hour of man-power should be made to profiuce as nearly as possible 100 per cent efficiency toward the win ning of the war. “This war consciousness must come. If it doesn’t com« before, it 'will come when our casualty lists begin to come in showing a loss of several hun dred brave American boys each day. If not before. It will come when a large proportion of women you see on the streets will be wearing black for boys who have fallen ‘Over there.’ “And then, America will begin to fight—as England and France are tag today." vitt d to send their coutrihutious to Mrs. H.
