BREAKFAST is O. k.
French Medical Professor Urges Euro
peans to Follow Example Of
Americans.

Bordeaux, France.-The American
breakfast of ham and eggs, liver and
bacon, beefsteak or other meat, vege-
tables and porridge, as a substitute for
the meager European morning meal, is
recommended for France by Doctor
Bergonie, professor Of the Bordeaux
medical faculty.
Doctor Bergonie regards this substi-
tuition as one Of the reforms most like
ly to relieve the economic situation, by
providing rational nourishment and
avoiding a great deal of waste.
He bases his argument on the fact
that man requires sustenance most at
the beginning of the day when he is
about to make his effort, whereas in
Europe he takes his principal meal
when his days work is half through,
when he is half tired out and is in
capable of so digesting his meal as to
give him proper support for the rest of
the days work.

State Office Is No Service Bar.


The mere fact that a man Of eligible
age for selective service is a state Of
f1cer or employee should furnish no suf-
f1cient claim for exemption according
to a resolution adopted as the sense of
a meeting of the council of State, the
Governor and heads of various state
departments. This resolution, of
course, is not deemed to be applicable
to those employees or officers who
have other claims Of exemption.
The resolution as adopted reads:
It is the sense Of this meeting that
no State officer or employee in any
executive department of the state gov
eminent should claim any exemption
from military service under the selec-
tive draft law by reason of the fact
that he is a state officer or employee.
This resolution is not intended to ap-
ply to claims for exemption by such
officers or employees who may have
valid grounds for exemption other
than the fact that they are in the SER
vice of the state, but is simply intend
ed to place officers or employees in
the executive department of the State
Government on the same footing as
citizens engaged in private business"

who has resigned to go to France as
lieutenant in the United States SER
vice, has received his orders to sail
for the French front and within two
weeks he will be on the seas.
Doctor F1owe's resignation grew
out of differences with the state
chemist, DR.. B. w. Kilgore, though
the department, which has not yet
announced his resignation, has of
course given out no statement of any
character respecting the retirement
OF the veterinarian from the service.
The disagreements are Of long stand
ing and Doctor Flowe ended it last
week by handing in his resignation
without any strings. He has declined
to reconsider.
The orders from the government do
not indicate what ship Doctor FlOwe
is to take. Mrs. F1owe will also go
to France and remain there while
the doctor serves the national depart
ment as veterinarian. The Cabarrus
county man who has made such a
splendid record in the state service
has been anxious many months to go
to this division of the great war. Had
the United States not entered the war
it was Doctor Flowe's purpose to vol
unteer in the English army.
The service which he enters has
all the excitements and hazards of
real battle. The veterinarians do not
play far behind the lines and they
have all sorts of demands on their
nerve. The retiring veterinarian goes
there with a great deal of enthusiasm.
