The selection of Capt j. Ben Han
non os this village must be particu-
larly gratifying to the former COM
mander of company X. Ever since
the opening OF the war he has been
persistently working toward securing
commission in the army. His
previous experience in the national
guard was in his favor but for a
number of years he has carried to
much weight to pass the physical
examination. EXERCISE, including
walks of eight miles each day and a
change of diet brought about a re
duction of 290 to 219 pounds
