Wilson Endorses Beckham
And Camden.

President Woodrow Wilson considered
the Maine election so important in its
relation to National Politics that at his
personal request Senator Ollie James
made numbe of speeches in that
State. Congressman Barkley, of Ken
lucky. was also on the stump in Maine
and number of other powerful friends
of the administration lent their efforts
to promoting the Democratic cause. The
success of the Democratic ticket in
Maine was most gratifying to President
Wilson, as it was to Democrats every
where. There is an old saying That as
Maine goes, so goes the Union" and it
is certain as anything can be in politics,
that as Maine has gone this year, so will
the whole Union go this year-over-
whelmingly Democratic.
President Wilson is as much interest
ed in the election of two Democratic
Senators in Kentucky this year as ne
was in the Maine election. AT the meet
ing of the Democratic State Central and
Executive Committees in Louisville re.
Gently, a telegram was received by Sen.
tor James from President Wilson urging
the election of Beckham and Camden to
the Senate. 1t is absolutely necessary
that the Democratic vote in the Senate
be strengthened and that the work Of
administration be upheld. The loss of
Democratic Senator at this time would
be disastrous to the Democratic party,
and realizing the gravity of the National
situation the President is taking a per-
sonal interest in the Kentucky campaign
this fall.
He has said to his friends that he
would be glad TO make speech in Ken
lucky for the ticket, but on account of
the International complications, he has
decided not to make any public address
es at this time. A little later, however,
he will issue several statements, setting
forth the work done by the Democratic
administrator aud appealing to the peo-
pie of the whole country to support him
and his party i'll the patriotic work they
are performing.
Governo Beckham and Senator Cam
den stand shoulder to shoulder with the
President on all public questions. SEN
ator James has done giants work in
fighting the Presidents battles in the
Senate and has had excellent support
from Senator Camden. When Senator
Camden's term expires, Governor Beck
ham will be ready to cooperate with the
President in solving those great prob
lens that now confront the party and
the Nation.
Every Democrat in Kentucky should
go to the polls in November and cast his
vote for Governor Beckham and Senator
Camden and thus endorse that great
statesman and patriot-Woodrow Will
son.

Eastern Normal and the Stanford High

for Eastern. The game was closely con-
tested from the beginning of the first
half to the close of the second, the final
score standing Z to 6 in favor of STAN

seasons met but one defeat, and while
they are much lighter eleven, they

spirit shown by Mr.. Oldham in giving
her people such an entertaining and
distinctive treat.

DIET AND COLOR.
What Man Eats Seems to Determine
the Shade of His skin.

What you eat determines your color,
according to Bergtield. a German inves-
tiGator-not necessarily that you your
self could effect any change Of color,
but your ancestors for thousands of
years have unconsciously been infu-
enced by the food they have eaten and
the drinks they have drunk.
For Instance. the original men were
black. says Berg6eld. Their chief diet
was of vegetables and fruits, he ex-
plains, and these same foods contain
mauganateS that are not unlike iron.
Dark browns and blacks result from
this combination. 1t is scientific fact
that negroes who drink milk and eat
meat are never as dark as those who
eat vegetables.
He goes on 10 add that the Indian Is
red because for hundreds and perhaps
thousands OF years he has taken into
his system the baemoglobin or red ma
terial in the blood of animals which
he has killed for their food.
Again. Mongols are yellow because
they have descended from races that
were fruit eating and who. making
their way into the deepest hooks and
widest plains of Asia. developed into
shepherds and lived largely on milk.
OF course il is known that milk con
tains a certain per cent of chlorine and
has a decidedly bleaching effect. In
the case OF Caucasians they are said to
have become white by adding salt to
their foods. which common salt is
strong chloride and powerful in bleach
ing the skin.-Chicago Tribune.
