FOOD MATERIALS AND
HOME ECONOMICS

The new Diet Menu, with its
underlying mystery of Caloric
Values, is major topic which
has been crowded out in these
days of hurrying circumstances.
Yet now, with the urge of inn
pending crisis upon us, there is
the need to profit by the tragic
lesson taught by belligerent Eu-
rope. In the minds of many the
matter of food production and
distribution does not present a
problem as serious as that OF the
conservation of food supplies.
Further, there seems to be the
growing demand for a working
knowledge of the actual relation
ship between the requirement of
the body and food material.
There is tohe ned to know, not
only the weight - but the vo-
lume of food sufficient to fur
nish a definite amount of energy,
With an intuition of impend-
ing need, the New York Life Ex-
tension Institute has been be-
forehand with a panacea in the
form of an exemplary twenty
five cent diet, which in any
event, war or otherwise, shall
take care of all the economic as
well as the gastronomic troubles
in the Pandora box.
And by the way - The Insti-
tute has up its sleeve schemes
for many social improvements.
AS is we'll known, it has for its
high aim the prevention of all
ills, including that worst of all,
and, so far, most incurable of all
diseases, poverty. This is a
pretty large order, but it is back
ed up by such names as EXPIRE
sident Taft; Irving Fisher, Phi.
d., Professor of Political Econo-
my, Yale University; David
Starr Jordan, Chancellor of Le-
land Stanford Junior University
of Naples, and many others
famed for Philanthrophy, Socio-
logy, and Science.
Whatever other conclusions
may be arrived at, the Institutes
most recent experiment serves to
emphasize again that profound
est of all facts - "up the stream
is causality", and down the
stream is - well, speaking con-
cretely the direful effect of the
bakers having left hot biscuits
for breakfast. Briefly, the Insti-
tutes thesis is - knowledge is
Power. Therefore, heal all ills
by way of knowledge. Unlock all
information tied up in scientific
literature and translate it into
household terms.
In the Diet Menu, the Insti-
tute has endeavored to live up to
its creed by evolving menus with
in the reach of all which are at
once palatable and wholesome;
effective energy producers; a
means of preventing the million
aire from passing off this mortal
coil by way of the gastronomic
sea, and above all a stab at exist
ing dietetic customs, characteriz-
ed by their useless waste.
Wether ex-President Taf :,
the illustrious chairman of the
Institute, was secured for the
high position chiefly to serve as
an illustration of what the am
bilious might hope for on a
twenty-five cent diet is a matter
of conjecture - not necessarily
conclusive, but happily suggest
i've. Be this as it may, the Insti-
tute, after seriously debating the
fact that many millions of people
are compelled to live daily on a
twenty-five cent diet without the
knowledge of how to get the best
values out of it, took upon itself
the task of demonstration.

The Roman Capitol to
the Capitol at
Washington


garland wreathes the bust dedi-
Gated to the hero whom free
men call the glorious Knight of
Humanity. 1t is a garland pure
as the branch of lilac offered by
a poet on the bier of Lincoln. 1t
is sacred as the ever-flowering
bough with heart-shaped leaves
of rich green. 1t seems as
though in this April of passion
and tempest there re-echos the
cry of that April, tense with Joy
and anguish:
U Captain! My Captain! Rise up
and hear the bells;
Rise up - for you the flag is
flung!
Now the group of stars on the
banner OF the great Republic has
become a constellation of the
Spring; like the Pleiades; a pro-
pitious sign to sailors, armed and
unarmed alike; spiritual token
for all nations fighting a right
eous war. l give the salute OF
Italy, of the Roman Capitol to
the Capitol at Washington; a
salute to the people of the Union,
who now confirm and seal the
pledge that liberty shall be pre-
served.
To Italy alone of the allied
nations the possibility was open
of avoiding war and remaining
passive spectator. Italy took up
arms gladly, less for the recon-
quest of her heritage than for
the salvation of all the things
which symbolic the grandeur of
freedom. She armed herself, as
to-day the American nation is
arming herself, for the sake of
an ideal. The spontaneous act
cOnsummated by the people of
George Washington is a glorious
sacrifice on behalf of the hopes
of all mankind.
America has achieved a new
birth. She has nodded for herself
a new heart. This is the miracle
wrought by a righteous war, the
miracle that Unexpectedly to day
we of Italy see performed beyond
an ocean dishonored by assassins
and thieves.
Our war is not destructive; it
is creative. With all manner of
atrocities, all manner of shame
full acts, the barbarian has striv-
en- to destroy the idea which,
until this struggle began, man
had of man. The barbarian null
tiplied on the innocent Infamous
outrages inspired by hate, al
ternating senile impudence, and
brutal stupidity. The barbarian
ground heroism to earth, cast
down the airy oathedrals where
congregated the aspirations of
the eternal soul, burned the seats
of wisdom decked with the
flowers of all the arts, distorted
the lineaments of Christ, tore off
the garments of the Virgin.
Now once again we begin to
have hope of the nobility of man.
Loves face is radiant, though its
eyes are moist with tears, for
never was love so much beloved,
Love overflows on all the world
like a brook in May. Our hearts
are not large enough to gather it
and to hold it. The people of Lin
coin, springing to their feet to
defend the eternal spirit of man
to-day increase immeasurably
this sum of love opposed to fury,
the fury of the barbarian.
"Ah, Libertyl Let others des-
pair of thee. I will never despair
OF thee" once cried your rugged
poet. In this hope your nation
arises to-day - in the North,
South, East, West = to offer
your strength, proclaiming our
cause to be the noblest cause for
which men have ever fought.
You were an enormous and OBJ
tuse mass of riches and power;
now you are transfigured into

NEWLY ENACTED
 CHILD LABOR LAW

Little Rock, Oct. 24.-In an ad' lress today before the Little Rock High school. State Labor Commis- sioner Bricknouse made the follow ing statements concerning the newly enacted child labor law:
 "The government" MT. Brickhouse said. "has provided five ways for the ,roying of correct ages. The birth record is the most accurate one, but ;aptismal certificates are accepted as we'll as Bible records. Then phy- sician's statement of the physical characteristics of the child are com rarei with those which the govern ment has established for average age: of the children. A parents or guar
 ans record in which the age of the shild is given at the time that he at tended that certain school.

 NO SICK STOMACH
 INDIGESTION, GAS
Tapes Diapepsin" Is the Quickest and Surest Stomach
 Relief.

You don't know what upset your stomach-which portion of the food did the damage-do you? Well don't bother. If your stomach is in a ra~ volt; if sick, gassy and upset, and what you just ate has fermcnted and turned sour; head dizzy and ach 9s; belch gases and acids and eructate un- digested food; breath foul, tongue coated--just take little Pape's Dia- pepsin to neutralize acidity and in five minutes you wonder what became of the indigestion and distress.
 Millions of men and women today know that it is needless to have dys- pepsia. A little Diapepsin occasional ly keeps the stomach sweetened, and they eat their favorite foods without fear.
 If your stomach doesn't take care of your liberal limit without rebellion; if your food is damage instead of a help, remember the quickest, surest, most harmless antacid is Pape's Dia- pepsin which costs only fifty cents for a large case at drug stores. It's truly wonderful--it stops food souring and sets things straight, so gently and easily that it is really astonishing. Your stomach will digest your meals if you keep acids neutralized.-Adv.

 tery.

Washington, Oct. 25.-New resu- lations for applying the army draf, were virtually completed tonight ac the office of the provost marshal gen. efal, and probably will be submitted to the president tomorrow for final approval. The president already has approved the general plan under Whlcn all registered men not yet call Cd will be classified in five groups in accord with the1r availability for military service. Provost Marshal General Crowder tonight cleared up the question as to how the draft num- bers now held by the nearly 9,O0O.OOO uncalled registered men will be ap- piled to the new classification. In each local district tee ley made up rom the draft numbers in the order of their drawing will be applied to each class or group. In other words, the rien of class one, in which will be placed the men of least value at home and with the slightest obliga- tions to dependents, will be called in the order of their serial number un- til that class is exhausted, just as tho all other classes had been ex- empted. When class one is exhaust ed the same process will bC applied to class two, and son on down to class five, if it ever should become necessary to carry it that far.
 Thus man whose seria: number ill the great war lotter had led his to believe that he would be among the last summoned my be assigned to the first class and orGered in the ser vice with the first quota. On the other hand, another whose number assured him originally place in the next increment may be so classified as ro make it virtually certain he never will be called.

 As parting remark last evening. Chairman Bloom said, "The former vice president is coming with a whole-hearted determlnation to serve his country, doing his best to help the government succeed in i'll it's un> dertakings. He will address very large number of Democrats, as vel! as Republicans, and the former will be just as cordial in their welcome, and as vociferous in their applause as the most rabid Republican could be.

OLD FIRMS WILL
HAVE NEW NAME

Cal Messner, owner and manager of
the Hudson Sales company and Mess
ner's Auto Supplies. has consolidated
both of his businesses under his own
name. The new name will now be Cal
Messner, at the same location, 306
North Central avenue.
Messner will continue his well
known lines of Hudson Super Six
pleasure cars, Saxon motor cars, Re
public trucks, Vim trucks, Michelin
tires, Master carburetors, Knight tires,
Splitdorf electrical products, PenZoil
lubricants and all other auto acces-
sories
1t will be remembered that before
Messner sold automobiles the Messner
Auto Supplies was the Southwestern
Carburetor company, and in less than
a year the business more than trebled
itself.
Cal Messner is one of the best known
automobile men in the CITY today and it
will be but very short time before
the people will get used to the new
name, for wherever Hudson Super
Skies, Saxons, Michelin tires or any
of his other lines are mentioned one
always thinks first of Cal Messner.
