LOUISVILLE CHEMIST FINDS
SUBSTITUTE FOR SUGAR

Arthur NJ. Breckler, member of
the firm of james & Breckler, con-
sulting chemists, will go to Cincin-
natl within two weeks to take charge
of new $15O,OOO factory in which
will be manufactured a substitute
for sugar recently discovered by
Mr.. Breckler.
The exact nature of his discovery
and to what extent it will revolu-
tionize activities in the sugar mar
ket are not known. The Louisville
chemist Is loath to discuss his sub
stitute which is syrup which will
take the place of sugar in every way
except for table use.
Cincinnati capitalists organized
the company that was formed for
the express purpose of manufactur-
ing and marketing the product. The
factory buildings have been com
pleted and machinery is being in
stalled in the plant, it is understood.
Mr.. Becker is vice president of the
company and will act as general
manager of the concern. The fac
tory will have capacity of 10000
pounds of syrup a year. 1t is ex-
pected the plant will be in opera
ton before fall.
Mr.. Breckler came to Louisville
twelve years ago from Des Moines,
Iowa, and is widely known as a
chemist. He was member of the
Naval Advisory Board with Carl p.
Nachod and William Speed, both of
whom are also Louisville men, whose
duties it was to make a survey of
kentucky's industrial resources.
Mr.. Breckler is a graduate of Drake
University and Of the University of
Chicago and is member of the
American Chemical Society. He
will retain his connection with the
Louisville firm in the capacity of
consultant.

WHO WILL 1T BE?
WHAT WILL YOU DO7

With the actual draft upon us,
there is much speculation as to
who will be the first to go from
our own community. But whoever
it may be, we who remain should
see that they are not forgotten by
the "folks back home We should
ascertain the camps to which each
one is assigned, and then through a
home committee see that each is
generously supplied with magazines,
home papers, comfort bags, CHEEKY
letters, and anything that will make
life more cheerful to them. No
single individual going forth from
this community to fight for his
country should be overlooked, and
all should be shown equal courtesy
and attention. When the good peo-
pie Of this community organize such
committee the Advocate will be the
first to contribute by furnishing a
copy of this paper each week to
each soldier who goes from our
midst. What will you doP

WANTED-A HOME MARKET

This town should have a home
market place for every single prod
uct of the farm, large or small. 1t
should be a place where the farmer
can dispose of his produce at mar
ket prices and for spot cash, with
out the trouble and waiting incl
dent to shipping to outside points.
When this is done much of the farm
er's money that goes out of town
now will in future be spent right at
home, with our home business men.
This world does not recognize the
policy of Something for nothing"
hence if We want the farmer TO help
US we must be equally willing to
aid him. Who has the brains and
energy to make a start in this di-
rection? 1t means much to the
future welfare of each of us.

HAmsTRuHe AND sTRAseLEp

Not long ago train Of fourteen
cars of potatoes, billed TO the Chi
cago market, were discovered at a
small town near that city, where
they had been side tracked and left
to rot-at a time when potatoes
we're selling at $500 bushel.
For a number Of wears now we
have been learning of the willful
destruction every season of such
commodities as potatoes, cabbage,
melons, apples and other fruits
when there was an opportunity by
so doing to force prices up in the
interest Of the spectators.
These food pirates have purchas-
ed acres and acres of fruit on the
trees and then refused to allow
them to be picked-kept them there
to roth order to keep them from
the open market.
In other ways the campaign of
pillage and loot at the expense of
the consumer has been going mer-
rily on.
OF course, merely to designate
the perpetrators of these outrages
as robbers and pirates does not one
particle of good except to afford
some slight relief to our feelings.
There seems to be nothing the coun-
try can do to prevent these outrages.
But there SHOULD be, and if we
not the temper of the Amer
lean people, there soon WILL be.
When the countries of Europe
first adopted the policy of govern
ment control of food stuffs we in
this country congratulated ourselves
that we live in FREE country.
Lately, however, we are beginning
to learn few things-that instead

hat the people are being systematic

ur Congress has the monumental
tfrontery to dawdle around and
aggle over minor details while the
'oorer classes of our population

ADVERTISING WILL Do 1T

The billions of dollars that our
government and foreign nations
are borrowing from our people will
be spent right in this country for
food stuffs and war supplies of all
kinds. The bulk of this money will
find its way into the hands of the
millions of wage earners, and they
in turn will spend most of it for
the necessities of life. This COM
munity will get its share of those
billions.
The shrewd home merchsnt
knows this, and is already mapping
out an extensive advertising cam
paign to offset the tremendous eff
forts of mail order houses and
large city merchants. He will get
his, for advertising will bring it to
him.
The local merchant who forgets
to advertise, who expects to in
crease his business without a pro-
portionate increase in legitimate
publicity expense, may discover to
his cost that he is decreasing it in
stead.

GIRLS, BEWARE OF
PACIFISTS AS MATES
Students of New York School Warned
to Refuse Marriage to Pacdfsts-
Not Good Husbands.

The girl students Of the Tewksbury
school in Scarsdale. N. r. were ad-
vised yesterday to refuse to marry
pacifists or men with pacifist ten
dencies. Further than that, they
were instructed not even to make
friends Of such. This advice was CIV
en- by the National Special Aid So
ciety. Of which Mrs. william Alex
ander is president. in an address
national secretary Of the organiza-
ton. She said that the existence Of
the war had brought American wom-
en- face to face with q set Of prob
lens entirely new to the women of
this generation. 80.
"In all recorded history" she said.
there have been cowardly men who
wished to be the protected ones and
not the protectors. These cowardly
men are against universal training
and service because these things COM
pei them to defend the country. as
well as the brave men who are will
ing to do 1t.
''The coward is historical char
acter. Whenever there has been
fighting to do he has tried to escape
under some plausible name or 9TH
er. In England he calls himself q
conscientious objector. and says he
snould not be made to fight. In the
U. 8. A. he calls himself q pacifist
or humanitarian. and says he ought
not to fight. But coward by any
other name Is a coward still. Beware
Of him!
always throughout life remember
that the man who will not defend
his country will not defend his wife,
his child. his home. Do not marry
such a man. Do, not have such
among your: friends. Make the first
test of the young men you admit to
your acquaintance, their patriotism.
Carry this formula throughout life:
trusted with a woman's welfare"
