What is a Calorie?

Since food conservation has be-
come a vital factor in carrying on
our war against Germany, the lay
man has encountered in his reading
the new word calorie. This word,
which formerly appeared only in
from the daily papers, from the mag
azines, agricultural and trade press.
In a way, the food administration is
partly responsible for the increased
use of the word, and, as result,
has received letters from all parts
of the country asking What is
calorie?" Some people, have gone IN
so far as to suggest that II IS lne
name of a new preaklaS; ror l s}o4

tvpe of explosive discovered by the
war department, and wanted 10 Know
what the food administration had 10

When fuel is thrown on a lire un-
der boiler, heat is produced. ms
heat is required in order that me ne
do work of any kind requires energy.
Food used or burned in the human
machine produces energy to main,
tain the normal heat of the body and
to do its work. Work done by the
body comprises not only that when
raoilirpS muscular or mental eAeIllou,
but also involuntary eXertlon sucn as
the beating of the heart, the, expan,,
sion of the lungs, etc. The chemical
process within the body which trans
forms our food into energy is SIM
liar in nature to the process which
takes place when fuel is burned ov-
err fire-though, in the body, the
burning takes rlace very slowly and
in every tissue, instead Of in one
central place. The value of food IS
determined by the amount OF energy
if Yields to the body; and it also has
a building and regulating funclon.
It was necessary that unit be es-
tablished for measuring the amount
of heat produced when 1000 was
completely burned The unit CHOSEN
or universally adopted as the unit
for measuring fuel value or energy
value for any kind OF food IS CARED
the calorie. 1t represents the same
principle in measuring as the inch
or foot, the unit of measuring
length; the pint or gallon, the unit
! of volume; and the ounce or pound,
that of weight.
The calorie is the amount OF heat
required to raise the temperature OF

so far as the amount is concerned
can therefore be expressed in the

AUTO THIEVES ARE
 BRIGHT CRIME WITS
(New York Herald)


 Automobile stealing, it appears. has been advanced to a place among the polite professions in the world of crime Merely to step into another mans car and drive away with it, taking all the chances, is now becoming an anchron- ism and crudeness. It is no longer done in the best grand larcency circles Ine genteel, purloiner now sizes up skillfully the vehicle he wants, as to it's cynnders, horsepower and other points Of technical interest, files his owner ship papers, takes out his license and, If stopped by the police, produces in- dignation and the official documents.
 It has long been a matter of note that the safe-robber of highest degree and the counterfeiter of fullest accom- plishment bring to their purposes tai- erts which would serve them in leEit- innate application exceptionally well. Ranking below these operators in gen. jus, the new motor car thief displays yet an acumen and a smoothness in businss execution which should make him as straight man of affairs gen. orally valuable.
 All these performers, refusing to work honestly for sure and sufficient compensation, work much harder for the uncertain returns and ever-pres- ent perils of crookedness. They make manifest a curious paradox of crime. They are not explained wholly by theo ries of a stunted spirit of adventure and a highly temperamental love for the risks of the crime. Perhaps the law. to meet them effectively, should hold them to punitive account in meas ures proportioned less to arbitrary de- grees of crime than to proved wastes of natural gifts.
