when, as a matter of fact, real and
true strength can only come from the
food you eat But people often fail to
get the strength out of their food be-
cause they haven't enough iron in their
blood to enable it to change food into
living matter. From their weakened,
nervous condition they know something
is wrong, but they can't tell what, so
they generally commence doctoring for
stomach, liver or kidney trouble or
symptoms Of some other ailment caused
by lack of iron in the blood. This
patient suffers untold agony. If you

yourself to make the following test:

(BY UNITED PRESS)

Washington, July 1O.-The
reason there are many vacancies
in the Aviation Section is that
only small percentage OF those
who apply can pass the physl-
cial test. Here's what one must
do after filing out a series OF
application forms.
"Have you ever been seaslck 81
is the first question popped. Avl-
ators must be immune to NAL de

Tests for near-sightedness and
far-sightedness, color perception
graded to finest tones and VISION
follow. Vision must be normal.
Heart, lungs and blood pres
sure must be perfect.
Feet must be we'll shaped and
the nervous system normal.
Chest expansion must be three or
more inches inflated.
Equilibry tests are next. The
applicant shuts his eyes and bal
ances himself on his toes with
heels and toes together. It sounds
simple-but try it. Then with
ewes still shut he balances on
each foot bringing the other up
until the heel touches the knee
cap.
Eyes are then examined more
minutely by the use Of belladonna
and the iris is "X-rayed to
make doubly sure there is no in
lection. Large tonsils, and ade-
noids must be removed. Teeth
must be good and sound. Nasal
passages must be clear.
Hearing must be perfect. The
tick of a watch must be heard at
five feet. Across a 25 foot space
the applicant must differentiate
between "Glass' and ''Grass >

BILE whisper.

must be perfectly developed. The
other senses must be perfect for

The applicant is seated in a
revolving chair much the same as
a BARRIERS or dentists. He is whirl-
ed ten times in each direction as
fast as the chair will revolve with
eyes shut. Suddenly stopped he
