For the purpose of economis. ing shipping faculties, the Gov- ernment has ordered reductions in the amount of paper im- ported into the British Isles. The restrictions have been met by the newspaper publishers to such an extent that ha:f-a- million tons of shipping was I avai!ab'e last year for other purposes. This is a matter in which readers of the Cambria Daily Leader" can assist matsriaity. The Government has been obliged to order a further re- stncticn, so that it is not possible to allow agents any- thing but the smaHest margin of papers on sate or return. This has led to disappoint- ment already, as a number of people have been mabie to obtain copies on accent of the agents having sold cut their supplies. Several of these people seem deposed to biame the news. r8-'lffie1PXipftp.Hx..2<J1!!g, p1m i l 116, immediate notice to meet any j, emergency demand. I Such a method must neces- ssri)y lead net cn!y to disap- pointment, but is also the cause of a very serious waste of paper. To avoid the former and pre. J vent the tatter, it is the wise and patriotic duty ot all "Cambria Daity Leader" < readers to piace without deiay a definite order with their news- agent to reserve or deliver a copy cf the "Leader" every evening.

A MAT!OMAL lENT- FOR THE DURATBOM." Were the submarines to be com- pletely defeated to-mc'rrow we wculd still Itavc to expect shortened supplies. Were the war to end to- morrow an. economic crisis would still liave to be faced. Much of the world's harvest of the field and thc workshop is at the bottom of the sea, and whatever happier condi- tions may presently come, however industriously the nations seek to make up for it, there is a largo per-! centage of dehnite toss. The world has to tighten its belt. There have been poor harvests, there have been fewer workers on the land, wide stretches on the Continent have been so ploughed by the war share that they are out of cultiva- tion. And the submarine has been busy at its devilish trade. Por these reasons, even were we to start life anew under peaceful condi- tions to-morrow, we would have to do without many things, But, as the Premier said in his som bre speech yesterday, the Gov- < eminent would be guilty of criminal'! ;? folly if it rested its action or policy on the tranquil anticipation of deal- ? ing effectively with the German sub- marines. Under the most favour- I aoie. circumstances we cannot liope for a speedy deliverance. One day! this week some journals put joy" headlines to a paragraph recording a short period of singular immunity from reports of submarine victims. Before the day was out, a. number of heavy losses had to be given, j There is no sovereign, remed y. We sigh for seme wonderful invention, sigh for sciiie NN-. on(lc-,rful inveiit,,oll, give us certain conrjuest over the! under-sea, enemy. But there is no!. absolute cure. v The Premier said i very candidly that it is impossible to achieve complete immunity from piratical attacks on ably a good deal more will be sunk i before the peril is overcome. And every ship sunk, every ship that bears to our shores fc'od cargoes, j means so much less for us. 11 The problem is very simple. The': home remedy is very plain. We ) must prepare for the worst. We must make up our minds to do without the hundred and one little ? things regarded in peace-time as! < part of the nation is already doing! ,0. The soldier on active service hag few luxuries. He has enough Locd to keep him in physical well- being, but when we read the corn- plicated recipes prepared by our rood and cookery experts, and the advice to housewives about this and that tasty dish, our mind flies over to France, where two millions of cur men are and healthily, on rations that woutd make many a home-bird think in t:erms of revolution. The cure for many a grouser over the limitation of liis dinner-course;- would be, to put him upon a menu of "bu!Iy" lor a week. It w'):'Id e-isc h' in-! dignation and soften his temper. The Premier announces many food restrictions. '\Ve are to have less fruit. We shall Im'e to do without table-waters. Half our supplies of canned salmon are to be cut on'. Tea iii; to be reduced. It is au extension of Lent—a National Lent for ttic, duration of the war. Ten million barrels of beer are' still to be brewed. That is a sup to the man who cannot do without t his glass of ale. these things will doubtless tell us how this allowance wcrhs out over ?. the country. The l'eductit)ll means. a saving of 600,000 tons of food- stuns, but it ir a pity tl)at tl (1:7"1 Premier could not see hi? way open ?

But it would have been a ) glorious deliverance had he been 1 able to discern a country willing to t go dry in order to increase war-) time einciency.

The house was bnrcly unished when he pntcrpd into occupation in November, and he heard nothing until the IMt Friday night in the old year. Since then 'he' and his wife had beard the (lull thuds," which could not be located, when they were alone in the house; others had heard thpn), and some, had heard them also when he or h!? wife. and sometimca both. were out of the room. This wa? a, point which led Mr. Bippin to explain that if any professional people came to the place to investigate he an<! Mrs. Rippi!! were quite willing, if nped be. to let them have the use of the reoiii, —and the house, for tli:it matter—and he and his wife would go out, if that was pre- ferred.
