Fill the School Lunch Baskets With
ALAMO COTTAGE CHEESE
Sandwiches!
WHAT shall I fix for Sue’s and John's lunch today?” For nine
months in the year poor distracted Mother puts that question to
herself every morning!— and it is a problem. For the lunch
must be nourishing not heavy (else little minds cannot tackle their
school problems with clear heads after the noon gong sounds) and
it must look nice when the youngster opens it up.
Sandwiches made with ALAMO COTTAGE CHEESE will do
much to solve the question. For cheese is in the class with meat and
eggs in building bodies. Try these sandwiches for the lunch baskets:

secure honest men for enforcement
work. The politicians name officers
whom they know are out of sympathy
with the purposes of the prohibition
amendment. I know and so does
everyone else that honest officers
could be found. There are plenty of
men who respect the constitution of
our country.
“1 do say that it would be an asset
in enforcement work to be able to
turn in any community to a gronp
of women wbqm everyone knows arc
scrupulously honest. Women’s clubs
and church societies in every village
could name women no bribe offers
could reach. Those are the women
I believe should be named to carry
on this enforcement work.”
Job To Seek the Woman.
Mrs. Pinchot agreed that it was
very likely that among the first to
seek the job would be that class best
known as "lady bootleggers.” But
that would be an easy thing to check-
mate she insisted. What she would
do would be to have the position
seek the woman instead of the woman
seeking the position and those who
were anxious to get the job would be
ruled out of the running.
"The class of women I have in
mind.” she added “would regard en-
forcement work not as a political
plum but as a moral duty to be
performed even at the sacrifice of
home life.
“Women realize as every intelligent
person must that enforcement of the
Eighteenth Amendment is not a prob-
lem of prohibition alone. It concerns
the breakdown of all that is first in
our civilization for which women
have toiled and endured so long.
“The pass to which this breaking
down and utter disregard for the
constitution has come is dangerous to
our whole social fabric and every in-
stitution of civilization.
Would Be More Honest.
“Women too in addition to being
mere interested than many men and
more honest than Kiost of Iho agents
the politicians select know very much
better than men just how to enlist
publie opinion and harness it to what-
ever cause they may be pledged to.
“I desire to make it very plain
however that I am not advocating
the use of women exclusively in this
work. Nor do 1 think they ought
to he sent into the dives and holes
while the men appointed by political
preferment remain in the high places

permits and nullifying the sacrifices
of their women deputies by lack of
interest in the came.
"Instead. 1 suggest that men and
women should be used in equal num-
bers and on the basis of general equal-
| ity which prevails in other depart-
I ments of government work.”
