In its plan for an investigation Of

The inquiry and today called into con

and representatives for suggestions.
The concert OF opinion. it was said,
afterward was that the commission
could interpret the act creating it in
the most liberal fashion and should
get down to basic faces concerning the
handling Of food resources.
Some officials believe the trade
commission has enough power to
make unnecessary the use OF extreme
legislation in regulating the control
Of food, although additional powers
should be given FOR an emergency.
Officials OF all department and di.
visions Of the government realize
that the facts of the situation existing
must be learned before remedies can
be planned. Now. no one knows how
much food there is in the country and
how it is distributed OF certain foods

Reading Around the Fireside.

Wonder how many mothers and faith
ers in Edgefeld county encourage read
ing in the home? How many realize
the obligation resting upon them to
inspire their children with desire for
intellectual culture? That which prob
ably more than anything else dlstin-
guishes man from, or raises him
above, thetlower order of animals is
intellect. the power to reason, to think,
to will. Then, in sense, it follows
that the more cultivated and more
highly developed the intellect the
farther removed is man from the
sphere of the dumb brutes.
Aside from the ordinary advantages
and profit that accrue from trained
mind, there is a peculiar pleasure and
ioy that come to one whose literary
taste has been cultivated. A good way
to begin the creation of literary at
mosphere in the home, one that will
ultimately lead to a greater degree of
intellectual development, is to encour-
age reading in the home. Instead of
sitting around the freside these long
evenings with idle hands and passive
minds, why not indulge in the helpful
pleasure of reading a wholesome book?
Instead of making the study hour of
the children monotonous, hum-drum
affair, inject into the study period some
form of reading that will be helpful
and inspiring.
A parent can dwarf child's mind
just as it's body can be dwarfed Why
not have the same desire and ambition
for your chlld's mind as for its body?
You watch from month to month and
year to year the steady growth and
development of the physicaEform. Then
why not to the same, or even greater
degree, be interested in the intellectual
development of your boy or girl? They
are of equal Importance, if your boy is
to fill large and useful place in the
affairs of men. Without any effort
your boy can easily grow into newer
of wood and drawer of water. But
have you not a higher ambition for
him than that? You should have.
Then encourage him to cultivate his
mind along with his body. Encourage
him to read during spare moments and
spare hours.

An Extravagant People.

The food conservation agitation is
serving two good purposes. Besides
curtailing the consumption of certain
necessities, in order that they may be
sent abroad to our Allies, it is causing
the people here at home to realize how
extravagant they have been. In many
homes the cost of living has been ma
terially reduced through the food con-
servation work, and nobody has suf-
fered or gone hungry either. Not only
has less food been consumed but bet
ter balanced menu is being served in
homes in which intelligent thought and
interest have been aroused. People
are learning not to serve several dishes
of starchy food or several kinds of fats
at the same meal.
The threatened sugar famine should
cause more attention to be given to the
consumption of sweets. There is no
gailsaying the fact that the American
people are consuming in one form or
another too much sugar. The state
ment has been made that sugar is used
in the United States at the rate of 90
pounds per capita, while the consump-
tion of sugar in England us Ct; in
France 26; in Italy IL. If less sugar
were consumed by our people, larger
supply would be available for the
Allies.
A little more thought given to the
pantry of the average home would cause
good many leaks to be stopped,
whereas heretofore the housewife has
been unconscious of extravaganza.

"Grandest in the
World, " She Says
Mrs. Simmons Says She
Feels Like a Girl--Had
Suffered Thirty
Years.

''I don't believe there is another
medicine in the world that equals
Vitona, and I never intend to be
without it as long as | live." said
Mrs. Alice Simmons, resides at II
South Lawn Street, Atlanta, Ga. y
few days ago. II am giving this
statement simply because I feel it
my duty, so other sufferers may
know what this wonderful discovery
will do.
''For thirty long years-nearly
my life-I suffered with kidney
trouble. My condition kept getting
worse until my health became almost
completely shattered. 1 had awful
pains in my sides and back and had
such terrible headaches at times my
head felt like it would burst open.
NY limbs ached and I was nervous
and irritable all the time, and didn't
know what it was to get good
nights rest. I would get up every
morning feeling tired and~worn out
and would just drag myself around
the house all day feeling about half
dead. I seemed to be losing weight
AID strength every day.
II also had stomach trouble and
lost my appetite almost entirely.
What little I ate did more harm than
good. My blood was bad, too, and
there just didn't seem to be any end
to my troubles.
II will always thank the friend
who told me about Vitona, for it
had almost made new woman out
of>me. In fact, feel better than
have since I was a girl and 1 think
this is wonderful after being sick so
long. I don't have those awful
pains in my back and sides like |
did, the headaches have disappeared
and I have more strength and energy
than I have had in years. / have
gained a great deal in weight. /
sleep we'll, have good appetite and
am not nervous like was. I feel
just fine.
MY husband and children have
also taken Vitona with wonderful
re .ults and I have recommended it
to many of my friends. 1t over
came my troubles after everything
else failed and I am sure there is not
another medicine in the world that
equals it, Vitona is now being sold
at Penn and Holstein, Edgefeld,
