EAT A BANANA
AND SAVE BREAD

The best way to save flour is to
stop the eating of bread. But such
advice Is worthless unless we know
what TO eat instead OF bread. Dur
ing these summer months our gar
dens and the cheap vegetables that
food the markets furnish the answer.
But all the year around the banana.
tropical fruit, which Is easily and
cheaply grown, can be depended upon
very largely to furnish starch and
sugar and a good supply of mineral
salts at a price which under ordinary
conditions is no greater than wheat
flour.
Bananas are brought to our mar
ket while they are still green, in
specially fitted boats which touch the
ports in the West Indies and Central
and South America. Our ability ia
get bananas at ten 10 twenty-five
cents n dozen, depending upon theiI
size and condition, is regulated by
the carrying capacity of the banana
fleet. Any readjustment of our ship
ping to meet the need of freighters
for carrying munitions and supple:
across the Atlantic which withdraw
these banana boats from service cut!
off a very important food supply.
II Is foolish to urge people to save
wheat by consuming less bread If a
the same time we make IL impossibl
for them to get the cheap food form
the tropics.

WILSON REAL .PEACEMAKER

In an address to the United States
Senate, President Wilson has made
known the things he considers
necessary to lasting peace at the
conclusion of the present war. In
outlining his ideas, the President
suggested virtually worldwide
"Momoe Doctrine" in which he said
the United States could not withhold
its participation. The freedom of all
people to work out unhindered their
own policies; the avoidance of en-
tangling alliances; free outlets to and
the freedom of the seas, and the linn
itation of naval and military arma-
ment were the main things to the de-
sired end, the President said. Sena-
tor Ollie M. James and some others
of the Kentucky delegation Endorsed
the speech. In some quarters the
speech was criticised as a departure
from the policy of mo entangling al
liances" upheld by Democratic leaders
in the past.

Heard About Town

L. b. Owens, of Harrodsburg, bro

proved himself a man of rare pres

burg Herald tells of it as follows: On
Sunday morning as Mr.. l.. b. Owens
was on his way to church he noticed
that a passing engine on the South
ern Railway had showed the snow
under the slabbing at the Main
street crossing, causing it to push up.
AS it was nearly time for the passen-
ger train from Louisville to pass he
hurried into the residence of Miss
Mamie Stage and telephoned the de-
pot and workmen We're promptly
sent to attend to the matter. But for
the thoughtfulness of Mr. Owens
the next train passing would proba-
bly, have been derailed.

WALKER CALLED
TO SHELBYVILLE
Pastor of Stanford Christian Church
Notified And Takes Matter
Under Consideration

Rev. d. M. Walker, pastor of the
Stanford Christian church, and one
of the best known ministers of this
denomination in Central Kentucky,
has been called to the pastorate Of
the Christian church at Shelbyville.
Rev. Walker was notified by telephone
Sunday afternoon of the action Of
the Shelbyville church. He said Mon
day that he would give the matter
earnest and prayerful consideration
and answer the Shelbyville peo-
pie within the next few days. A dis
patch from Shelbyvile to the Courier

gregation of the Shelbyvile Christian

imous call to the Rev. David M. Wal

Government Building
5000 For Site In Stanford In Bill
Passed BY Congress

A telegram from Congressman
Harvey Helm last Friday brought the
news to Stanford that the House of
Congress had passed his measure APP
propriating $4,000 for the purpose
of purchasing a site for govern
ment building in Stanford. Congress-
man Helm has been working on this
matter for some time, and everyone
was greatly pleased that he was able
to get it included in the omnibus pub
lie buildings bill which went through
the lower house.
The daily papers, however gave
little encouragement that the appro-
priation will finally be secured at the
present term of congress. The bill
which contained the Stanford item
also provided for public buildings in
all sections of the United States,
among which were $4,000 for a
building at Barbourville and like
amount for building at Eminence
The total amount of appropriation
carried was $3S,000,OOO, and the
Cincinnati Enquirer said that Presi-
dent Wilson had stated that he will
veto the bill if it passed the senate
and came to him. On the other hand
it was stated that the chances of il
ever seeing the light of day in the
senate were very slim, so that Stan
ford as yet is long way from gov
eminent building.
Congressman Helm has stated that
he will press the matter with all of
the power at his command from now
on and enlist all of the support pos
sible from senator's. The bill was bit
terly fought in the house by mum.
Der of members who charged that il
was nothing more or less than a
wholesale grab into the treasury
However, other towns have their
public buildings and many of them
much smaller than Stanford, and if
such grab" is to be made into
the national treasury and it usually
is at each term of congress, Congress-
man Helm is not going to be Gen.
sured around these parts for doing
all he can to get building for his
home town.

BIG SNOW LEFT
HERE IN HURRY
Two Small Bridges Washed Out by
Heavy Rains Which Swept "The
Beautiful Away

The big snow of 1917 left as
quickly as it came. Old weather
men say no snow of its depth has
been known in this part of the state
since way back in the sos. A two
foot depth was registered in mpny
places on the level, and everything
was brought to an almost complete
standstill for the first day or two.
A heavy and incessant rain which
started Sunday, became almost tor
rent Sunday night, and the "beauti-
full" disappeared rapidly, so that by
Monday morning, only in places
where it had drifted was there a YES
tige left. For time creeks were
out of bounds, and tremendous
food was threatened. The quick fall
in temperature of Monday morning
however, checked this threatened
danger. 1t rained so hard and Sc
much, however that considerable

porting severe loss from too much
water.
Of course the snow and subse-
squent rains did lot of damage to
the roads. Two bridge culverts were
reported to County Road Engineer
Mckee Rife Monday, as having been
washed out by high waters. One was
on the Knob Lick pike near the farm
of P. l.. Beck and the other was near
the tunnel at Kings Mountain. Mr..
Rife, who is greatly handicapped
just at present by the county being
out of road funds, and therefore un-
able to employ labor, got out the big
auto truck and went at the job of re-
pairing them himself as best he
could.
