Vision Your Sons, Mothers of Ctna
Vision them at early morning when
through the rising mists, there bursts a
hurricane of fire ---
See your valiant boys ---calm, grim,
but cheerful, "stand -to -arms" until the
Hun's "morning hate" dies away.
Picture them at breakfast, the meal
that must bring them the bodily sus-
tenance to - carry them through the
strain of another day.
Then think what might happen if,
one morning, there was no breakfast
---no food, and word went down the
lines that Canada had failed- them.
Vision all these things, and then ---
as Women of Canada --- Mothers of
Men ---Answer this Call to Service.
Canada must send to Her Own, and
to. the Allies. Fighting Forces, more
wheat, more beef, more bacon, and
more of such other foods as are non-
perishable and easily exported.
Thry Must
Statistics show that, everyday, in Canada, sufficient food is
thrown into garbage bans to feed the entire Canadian Overseas
Army:
'Travellers have often remarked that many a European
family would live well upon the quantity and quality of food
wasted in some Canadian homes.
Such waste is shameful at any time, but in these
times it is criminal.
Canada can do this without depriv-
ing her own population of a fair share
of any of these foods if You Women
Will but help.
All we ask of you is, that instead of
buying so much white flour (if you do
your own baking) you vary your baking
by using one-third oatmeal, corn, bar-
ley or'rye ' flour. Cr, if you buy your
bread, that you order a certain pro'
portion of brown bread each day.
Second, instead of using as much
beef and bacon as formerly, you vary
your family's diet, by substituting for
beef and bacon such equally nutritious
foods a's fish, peas, lentils, potatoes,
nuts, bananas, etc. -
Third, and this is most important,
--positively prevent the Wsa! e of a
single ounce of food in your house-
hold.
Be Fed
Our only hope is that with these truths before you, and in
view of the vital issues at stake, we may count upon your
earnest co-operation in ;stopping this appalling waste;. and in
substituting other foods for the wheat, beef and bac?I1 that
must be sent overseas,
Next week a Food Service Pledgee and Window Card will he
delivered to you. It is your Dedication. to War Service. The
Window Card is your Emblem of Honour.
