I'OOD AMI MOItAL SI ASIOX Earlv In the month of August. , 1917, the Food Administration came Into official being. 1.,'ito in that iume, month tho ministers of every nomination In the country wore In Washington orferlng to do whatevor .hey could to help. Their ofrers were gladly accepted ind thev returned homo three days later armed with Inspiration", a re- oubled eagerness and a very defin ite campaign program. If there war, any church member who 'did not know why and how to invc fond, It was his own fault and not that "f the minister, for If ever gospel ns widely and sincerely prenrhfd thin one certainly was. And the ministers asked of their rongregations even more than mere ly to s;ive fund; they asked them to keep a weekly record of the food laved. These reports were most in dicate upd detailed and asked for a record of the iliffeient foods con tinued, not :vs a whole and by the week, hut rarh ns a s pa rate food md meal by meal, and person by person. To get an i:by.dutcly uccur ite account of food i used, saved and wasted Is practically impossible, but tbce reports come a near ns pos sible to doing It, ami furthermore they come from suhsl.'iutlnl, repre sentative American homos. During the first three months 20. 000 rhilrc lies took part ill this '"Food Will Win the War; Don't Waste It." campaign, and for the lad two months a check was k. pt on the re mits ncconipli'-hed.
