oa6 Effect Of Fried Meat She~n-Eat
to Conserve Health.
One of the worst enemies Of our race
In fried meat, salt or fresh.
This is the diet traditional among
the masses nf the race and one which
contributes toward much of its ill
health. Among the uniearned of the
race the ordinary method Of cooking
meat is to put it into an oven of molten
lard, where it stays until brown. The
result of this process is a mass of life
less meat fibers, which have become
giving nutriment has evaporated and
gone off into the clouds of smoke
which arise from the skillet. This in
digestible mass places an unnecessary
burden upon the stomach. and in due
time there follow headaches, drowsi-
ness and all forms of stomach trou-
bles. which by weakening the body
make it a suitable camping ground Tor
all sorts of disease germs.
The proper way to prepare meat Is
either to boil. broil or roast it. The
broiiing or roasting process when
properly done preserves the nutrition
with minimum loss. while in boiling it
the nutrition is drawn out and, as We
say, "tayors'' the gravy or soup. We
eat too much meat anyway. Meat
twice a day Is enough for the hardest
labOrer, while once Il day is sufficient
for the ordinary worker.
Milk, eggs mot friedl. apples baked
and stewetb. potatoes, baked beans
and such things are highly recommend
ed by the food specialists as being far
more valuable and digestible than the
frequent use of meat. Since food is
the fuel which supplies power for the
engines of the body. it is we'll ut this
time that we face this question frank
ly and learn something of food values
, and uses
For your own sake ask your physi-
clan about fried meat. and for the
sake of others bring this question up
| in some Of the discussions which you
will attend during the national Negro
health week. which is to be observed
from March 21 to %. Ask your ply
sician about the health week, or write

dent of the National Negro Business

According to bank oflicials the mon.
ey was not obtained on August 4. Half
of 1t. they say, was taken year ago.
and the remainder August 3. The
supposed hold-up, Perrin Is quoted as
saying, was staged the day following
the second theft, as he feared discov'

The second alleged confession is said
to have been made in the directors

BAN ON LIQUOR
IN IOWA LODGES
LEAGUE IS PLAN
MING TO ENFORCE LAWS IN
THE CLUB ROOMS.

Des Moines, Aug. IA. -Anti-saloon
league leaders here are turning their
attention to the enforcement of the
Iowa liquor laws as they affect lodge
and club room buffets. Cases pend
ing against the Elks lodge and the
Eagles at Fort Madison, are to be tax
en- up to the supreme court.
In the former case, M. 8. ode, rep
resenting the league. asserts that after
a complaint was filed against the lodge
for operating buffet, the place was
closed and that then the Lee county
district court refused to enjoin the
Elks, holding that the nuisance COM
planned OF had been abated.
The Anti-Saloon league is pushing
the case to get supreme court re-
versal OF. the verdict. The dry attor-
ney asserts the lower court should
have granted the application for an in
junction, and that the lodge cannot
escape by deciding to quit after action
has been begun In the courts.
Practically all the lodges and clubs
In the central part Of the state, it is
stated here, have been closed but it
il said complaints have been received
from cities in the eastern part OF the
state.
