WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 1918 ocial H ) on Nos orth Shore by Ruth Risley NOTHER WAR SLOGAN, which we may adopt, with just a little thought, is "Save Paper and Save Soldiers' Lives"! In these momentous days when every ounce of our energy, : when every cent of our money, when every life, if need be, | "4s dedicated to the defeat of the Teutonic powers, there is no single 'act of a private individual so unimportant as not to have a bearing on the outcome of the great enterprise we have undertaken. So closely are.all peoples in all Allied lands bound together, so. complete has the organization of our resources become, that we] are scarclely surprised now to have our government tell us that] we must save paper; and that by saving paper we can help save the | lives of our boys at the front. Do you know that every time you use a sheet of paper un-| necessarily you are depriving the government of caustic soda, sulphur, and potash, chemicals so sorely needed in the manufacture | of "I. N. T." the most powerful explosilve used in the war? Do] you know that when you destroy a pile of paper you are destroying the equivalent of several pounds of coal, for it takes from one to three pounds of coal to produce a pound of paper? The War In- | dustries Board has placed these facts before the people and has re- quested the nation to save paper, not only in a casual and superficial way, but to save systematically, intensively, with the sure knowledge that every scrap of paper so saved is a direct act of service to our army. The simplest rules are: use as little as you possibly can; write on both sides of a sheet instead of on only one; save the blank sheets of letters and circulars and use them in place of pads. Instead of throwing away or burning up your empty oat-meal box, or your sugar, coffee or corn starch boxes, save them together with vour old newspapers and worn-out paper bags and dispose of them to the Salvation Army or to the junk man. Above all don't burn vour waste paper or old rags. The government needs this co-operation on the part of the housewives. It needs all paper, for remanufacture into shell wrappings, questionnaires, for correspondence, for packing soldiers' food and clothing, and for soldiers' letters. EE SEI Announcement is made of the marriage of Miss Helen Collier and Lieutenant Glenn FE. Clark, both of Spokane, Wash. The wedding took place in Winnetka on October 29, at the home of Mrs. William E. Richardson, an aunt of the bride. Lieutenant Clark has been stationed at Fort Sheridan, but was called to Wash- ington, D. C., in the day of the wedding. They left for the east last Saturday. 5 > L 4 The parishioners of Christ church: Mr. and Mrs. are having a parish dinner and meet- Hubbard Woods, announce the en- ing on Saturday, November 16, at the | sagement of their daughter, M.

RR LLU ALLY LLL N SEVEN REASONS : FOR SAVING 77 Save for your country's sake, because it is now spending millions a day and must find most of the money out of sav- ings. Save for your own sake, be- cause work and wages are plentiful, and, as prices are high now, a dollar will buy more af- ter the war. Save, because when you spend you make other people work for you, and the work of every- one is needed now to win the war. Save. because by saving you make things cheaper for every- one, especially for those who are poorer than you. Save, because by doing with- out you relieve the strain on ships, docks, and railways, and make transportation cheaper and quicker. Save, because by saving you set an example that makes it easier for the next man to save. A saving nation is an earning nation. Save, because every time you save you help twice, first when you don't spend and again when you lend to the nation, --The Commonwealth.

Roswell. all IF YOU MUST BUY-- Buy only useful Christmas presents for everybody except children; then buy earlier than ever before and tell everybody else to do so. There are eighty-two buying days before Christmas. Fach one will be busier than the last. There will be no more clerks to serve customers 'on the eighty-second day than there "are now. There will be no more things to buy and no more hours to buy them in, and no more men to de- liver them than there are today. The merchants have promised it. And when you buy them, carry them home yourself. Above all buy them earlier. INCREASE IN MILK PRICES IS GRANTED DEALERS \ The United States food administra- tion has authorized an increase in price for pasteurized milk and culture buttermilk for November. The in- crease is one cent per quart bottle. Cream will remain at the same price as prevailed during October, but the quality will not be quite so good, as the percentage of butter fat is re- duced from 25 per cent to 20 per cent. The November prices for milk will be 14 cents per quart and 8 cents per pint, with buttermilk 10 cents per quart. The labor problem has now entered a really critical phase.

There is a crying need in all our camps for these things: Records for musical instruments, such as violins, guitars, mandolins, banjos, ukeleles, mouth organs, etc., which the men can take with them "over there"; and music to sing and so help pass away the lonesome, leis- {ure hours. Hunt up your seldgm-used {records and almost-forgotten instru- ments for the men who are going out to do battle for us, and constitute yourself a committee of one to can- vass your neighbors for like contri- butions. This movement is being carried out | under the direction of Mrs. | originated the "Music for the { Camps" idea, who has investigated lthe needs of ev ery camp in the coun- try and knows just where to place | every contribution to the best advan- | tage, and who has secured the co- i operation of the Y.

Edwin Stanley, secretary of the Illinois Maximum Savings club, show that 1077 'Illinois banks have been mem- bers by purchasing, as an investment, $1,000 worth, maturity value, of War Savings Stamps. The success in ob- taining the interest and co-operation of the bankers of the state in the sale of War Savings securities inspir- ed a letter of congratulation from Frank A. Vanderlip, chairman of the National War Savings committee which began the War Savings. work. Tt is expected that every bank in the state will have joined the Maximum club by the end of this month.
