'An vory frequently -happens the
war news Voports do not entirely
co-ordlnaio nnd ranch tlio definite
iiosh Hint all would like, but the
period muy be descrlbod n "crlti.v
al." That is to Bay it is critical as
far as thn Crown J'rlnce's Arniy la
concornod. Ilctwcon tho statement
that Hie retreating Cormnns have
decided on an oxuet reverse move
nienit and will right Instead of run,
and the othor reports that tho al
lies iro gaining ground nnd that
but ono railroad is left either for
tho purpose ol forwarding supplies
or effecting n ratont, the exact sit
uation becomes complex and inde
finite an far as tho enemy is coit
cernod. -'
It Is vory plnuslble that the Gor
man army cannot well rollout and
face the scorn that would fall upon
it from the Roririan people, nnd
when surrounded as they nro on
tbreo sides, they cannot very well
advance. Their chnnco for ad
vancement has diminished every
minute einoo tho allied aggression
began. Thoir condition Is Indeed
"critical." . ,
Tho only explanaton to bo accept

THE TRUTH ABOUT CANDY.
HOW MUCH CANDY
CAN WE EAT?
"Where Shall We Stop, to Stay
Within the Bounds of Patriotism?"
That's a question which puzzles many of us.
We nil know that we must "go easy" on smtar, as it is our
duty to conserve.
And candy contains some sujrnr.
So how can we know how much to eat.
In the first place, we must not forirot that our system needs
some sujrnr, and this the Food Administration rccojrniy.es.
We must rcmcmbervioo, that some people like their sujrar in
coffee, some in fruit ami some in other wnys. If you like yours
in tho form of y'andy, lit some candy as much as the Fond
Administration pyrmits-la certain share is yours.
The Food Administration is keeping in close touch with the
suirar situation nl nllotlnpr the candy nuinufncUirers as much
ns it can see its wi clenilto nllot.

Put that which
because the Food AiluViii ration recognize randy as a food and
is willing to permit it TV be made nnd sold. It also knows that
the candv makinc induslTV is a biff national industry and that ii
is the duty of everyone to help keep industries Roinjr at home at
the same time that we are winning the war.
So the candy manufacturers nre p rmiltcd to make a certain
nmount of candy and offer it far sale to you. I'.ut the Food
Administration says how much that will be. When the smrar
is used up, no more can be had. So vou know that the candy
vou see on sale is there with the jiermision and sanction of the
Food Administration. And that enndv you can enjoy to the
fullest. And .hile you cat it, or seijd it away 4o a soldier, if
you prefer, you may know ihat every pound is hich in food value
good.wholcsoiric food, supplying the system with carbohydrates
(fuel for the body).
In normal times the candy industry uses only 8 per
cent of the sugar used per ccpita in this country.
Uiglit now this amount has been cut Fipiarely in two.
