Realize
when you buy shoes of
duality youbalways pay
a little more-but the
time between "whecn"
is what makes quality
ant economy.
Think This Over-
The wealthy are the on-
ly ones who can afford
to buy "cheap" foot-
wear-because it costs
more in the long walk.
The Truth Is?
We thave a reputation
for catering' to the bet-
ter dressed. The truth
is, they, are better
dressed because we
cater to them.
Another Truth-
The style of a shoe
will last as long as the
shoe looks good. That's
why quality shoes re-
main sty lish-their ap-
pearance lasts

Two recent orders of the govern-
ment show the necessity for conserv-
ing the supply of wheat, and at the
same time, of consuming the more
abundant articles.
The national food administration,
by suspending the meatless day regu-
lations for a period of 30 days, and
by ordering bakers to discontinue the
use of unauthorized substitutes in
the making of Victory bread, has ex-
pressed the extreme need of wheat
products among the Allies.
Hotel managers from all parts of
the country have pledged themselves
to eliminate wheat, and wheat pro-
ducts, from their menus as a result
of the food administrator's request.
Mr. Hoover said, "Every independent,
every well-to-do person in the United
States should abstain from wheat en-
tirely until the next harvest."
On the other hand, the government
requests that more corn and pota-
toes be consumed. The 1917 potato
crop has been so large, and the de-
mand relatively small that farmers
have found it necessary to feed large
quantities of potatoes to their stock.
All corn and corn products should
take the place of wheat.
That Hawaiian patriotism is as in-
tense at present as that within the
United States, is evidenced by the fine
manner in which that territory is co-
operating in all war measures. Food
ipledge drives and conservation cam-
paigns are being pushed as vigorous-
ly as in any of the states. More than
100 cases of Red Cross supplies were
sent to Europe from the islands dur-
ing January and February of this
year.
On one of the smaller islands, Mol-
okai, a leper colony is located. These
lepers, wishing to give evidence of
their patriotism, have raised a fund of
$250 which they have asked the Amer-
ican Red Cross to use for relief of suf-
fering in Europe.
Washington's birthday is always
commemorated with much zeal in the
various towns in the territory. This
year in many places the day was
marked by fairs and bazaars, the re-
ceipts being used for patriotic war
purposes.
In Honolulu the day was celebrated

ed yesterday. Reeves was formerly
located at Indianapolis.
Arthur M. Grant, '20, Benzonia, has
been rejected for service after three
operations. Grant left the University

of a physical defect which could be
corrected by an operation. Another
physical defect was discovered at the
second enlistment examination. He
was again operated on, but he failed to
pass another examination. Grant then
attempted a third operation. In-
flammatory rheumatism set in, due to
his weakened condition, after the last
operation. He is recovering. Grant is
a member of company L, First regi-
ment, R. 0. T. C.

Another undertaking on the Hawai-
ian Islands is the movement for edu-
cation in American citizenship which
was inaugurated about a year ago.
The aim is to educate the natives in
order that they may take out citizen-
ship papers, and the education of.
young foreigners who by right of their
birth in Hawaii will be come citizens
when they are of age. It is said that
the movement has met with splendid
success so far.
