SHOULD INTEREST WOKEN. Every woman should be acutely interested in the food situation, art should have an equal interest in the heisl hi problem involving the welfare of the family. While the. widespread advice from the food administration has. led many to change their ways of pnpar-ing food and conserving it, no fu apathy should be tolerated if we to fit ourselves to nourish a natioi: in the days of war and A third pamphlet issued by the bureau of dietitians service is one which fallows up the Montessori method of having a child combine his playtime exercises with some demand for homeife.

Surely, two hours a child's day could be used at different times to instruct him in regard to foods and nutrition. The Red Cross division offices will fcrj-vide the gui.ie for this elementary instruction, as they see fit. The circulation will not be wide unless the needj is definitely expressed in enough locali-' ties, as there is no intention that these few lessons- should be put before the children in quite the same way that food economics is taught in It will he possible for any echool teacher, with reference reading and possibly the assistance of some practical housewife, to give children the information suggested by this course. The work can be done by demonstration, if individual work In the group Is practicable. i 4 By JANE DELANO, Director of the Department of Nursing, American Red Cross.

The Red Cross, through its early Intel est in' conserving healtn at home as i. went forward with the work of relief abroad, completed a plan early in 1917 for teaching women elementary facts in household economics in their own homes. A text book on Home Dietetics was compiled by the department of nursing as a guide in this, and has been used by many groups of women throughout the country. When our country entered the war, the Red Cross met the need of trained dietitians to send with our doctors and nurses overseas. When camp hospitals were established in the United States, dietitians again were supplied.

Because of these two activities, a bureau of dietitians' service was formed under the department of nursing at KeJ Cross headquarters, and has become a recruiting agency for the dietary departments of the army and navy hospitals. So necessary did it seem to the Red 5L i -a i If1' (f i i 4 i I Xi I 3 i vS- jo EAST El FIRE 5L Cross to develop this bureau of dieti- tians' service, that before attempting DISTRICT HAS the work, the department of nursing got the advice of the leading dietitians of the country through the co-operation of the committee on dietitians' service fo: the Red Cross. Miss Edna N. White, director of household economics Z. X' 7r-JZ'JLJL.

George, a member of the committee, who has 24-STAR FLAB Vvx vht Generoua Americana of the Pittsburgh district and elsewhere continue the 'adoption' of French war orphans through the fatherless children of Trance, both as organizations and individuals. The plant of "adoption" is so simple that it is all the more attractive. The subscriber pledges himself to pay 10 tents per day for a period of one or years, payable monthly, quarterly or annually as he may desiie.

and upan receipt of the first payment is given the name and address of the orphan as-fcigned to him who is given the name and address of his benefactor in America. The orphan is thereby assured of home influence, in most cases in the care of the mother, with all the cherished traditions of the family and now made mora encred through the death of the father. One of our boys In France writing home recently said: 'tlod bless and prosper that splendid organization, the Fatherless Children of France, for it is bringing sunshine and new hope into many a darkened home." Subscribers are more' than repaid by the grateful letters received from their wards which uniformly show how much even this small amount means to them. Subscriptions should be sent to the local treasurer, C. E.
