.HO[BERG EXPLAINS
 ADVERTISING LAW Anti-Fake Bill Recently En- acted Is Widespread in
 Its Application

A few days ago Governor Henderson signed the honest advertising bill. which was introduced by Representat' e Isadore Shapiro, and which ad men here believe will have a salutary effect upon fake advertisers of every descrip- tion in Alabama. The law was fathercd by the Birmingham Ad club and Presi- dent F. J. Holberg of the club. in speak ing of the law yesterday, said
 The Shapiro's honest advertising law absolutely prohibits any and all vertising of every character. whether it is in newspapers, magazines, on bill boards, in circulars. letters or in pub licity of any character by any one in regard to merchandise or anything else that they have for sale. It is wide spread in its application and should do much to remove from the minds of the public any lingering doubt that may be there as to the honesty of the adver- now know that the state will protect its people in the fullest measure against dishonest advertising.
 "The bill was promoted by the Bir mingham Ad club because the officers and members of the club believe that their own advertising will be more ef- fective If 1t tells only the truth, and If 1t Is not associated with advertising of an untruthful character. In other words, the Ad club believes that for advertising to be 100 per cent effective. all advertising must be truthful. and inasmuch as 1t Is sometimes necessary. even in this enlightened day, to use the big stick to make some people be- have, the club has invoked the aid of the state in helping 1t to protect the people against the dishonest advertiser within the state.
 The vigilance committee of the Ad club stands ready to investigate and prosecute any complaint that may be made as to any dishonest advertising of any character that may be called to its attention by any one, whether a of the club or not"

Later young McAdams came back to this country and by applying himself to a keen study of military matters passed an examination which brought him an officers commits sion. He is now a senior first lieutenent and in direct line for a promotion to a captaincy.
 Drills Business Men
 During the past summer Lieutenant McAdams has been engaged in drilling va rious business mems organizations on the Pacific coast so that volunteers would be in some degree prepared for active service in the event of war with foreign power.
 AS to his efficiency as a military officer. Captain McAdams also was in recept of letter from the adjutant general of the United States army to his son. The let ter follows:

NASHVILLE TO HAVE
 DIXIE-KRISPIE DAY
New Food Product Invented by Nash vile Woman Is Being Widely
 Heralded

Plans are being completed by the Busi-
 ness Woman's Equal Suffrage league of Nashville for Dixie -Krispie" day. to be
 new breakfast food that has been ere
 ated by Nashville woman. Booths will be set up in different parts of the up town district and demonstrations of the new food given. The cooperation of the grocers of the city has been promised and Dixie Krispies'' will be'a prominent
 part of their window displays for the 5day. rt F # Miss Martha R. Jones. creator of the
 new product, Is a charter member of the
 Nashville Business Womans league, and
 from the very inception of work on the food the league has taken an active inter-
 est in its success. In order that its in-
 troduction to the market may be heraded
 throughout the city and state the league decided to devote an entire day to adver- Using 1t.
 Another feature that has attracted marked attention is the fact that all of
 5 the incorporators of the Martha Jones Pure Food company, the company financ-
 ing the new project, are women. So far as is known this is the only instance of this sort in the United States. Authors,
 business women and leaders in various activities are among the incorporators Gnd members of the board of directors of the new company.
 Dixie Krispies' differ from most other
 foods now on the market in that it was not prepared for commercial purposes. but is the result of study and laboratory research covering a period of two years by Miss Jones, who was doing graduate work in the chemistry of foods at Van !de-b!lt university. With cotton seed flour as the basis of its manufacture, the nu-
 tritive value of the food is unquestioned. and by some of its advocates it is looked upon as an excellent substitute for meat and the solution of a problem of expense that has steadily grown worse. The new food is not only scientifically prepared
 but Is original in form and exceptionally palatable.
 On account of the large amount of cot ton products now unmarketable in this
 country. 1t is believed that this food,
 based on cotton seed flour, can be made
 one of the most inexpensive dishes avail
 able to the marketer. Cotton seed flour
 has been used as a human food for over
 a quarter of century in Texas and other western states. but it's use on an extensive
 scale will be boon to the cotton inter- ests and other source of wealth to the
 south.
