thought the safest plan would be TO
swim some river that crossed the lines
The idea of making ones way 10 Hoi-
land. a neutral country, occurred to
everyone, but the one great obstacle IN
that direction, we all realized, was the
great barrier of barbed and electrically
charged wire which guards every foot
of the frontier, between Belgium and
Holland. and which is closely vatcsSd
by the German sentrSes.
This barrier was a three-fold affair.
1t consisted first of a barbed wire wall
six feet high. Six feet beyond that was
a nine-foot wall of wire powerfully
charged with electricity. To touch it
meant electrocution.s Beyond that, at
distance of six feet was another wall
of barbed wire six feet high.
Beyond the barrier lay Holland and
liberty, but how to get there was a
problem which none of us could solve
and a few of US expected to have a
chance to try.
Mine came sooner than 1 expected.

PER OuNCE-

In order TO determine the relative
value OF different kinds of food it is
necessary to develop a measure of en-
ergy To this end the term calorie IS
used. This represents the amount OF
heat required TO raise the temperature
of a liter of water on degree. Applying
these figures to the cereals listed above,
il appears that whole wheat, for in
stance. will yield per ounce 16.l calories
of protein. 81 Galleries of fat. and 1913
calories Of carbohydrates We do not
use whole wheat -four, however, to any
appreciabIe extent Hence these figures
are misleading. The white flour we or
dinarilv do consume contains per ounce
only about 90 Galleries of protein, 81
Galleries of fat and S9.1 calories OF carbo-
hydrates Observe, therefore, that the
cornmeal contains more protein and fat
but a little less carbohydrates than the
wheat flour. The total number of cal
cries i'm an ounce, for instance, of wheat
-four as ordinarily used is lO2; in the
case of cornmeal, 1887. The calories
of carbohydrates in wheat flour is equiv
alent TO that in cornmeal and vice versa.
In other words sc makes no difference
from what source the particular ele-
rnent needed in the nutrition of the
body is derived provided the digestion
and assimilation Of these elements be
accomplished with equal facility. THESE
facts make IT clear, therefore that corn
meal can be used as substitute for
wheat -four without injury 70 the popu-
lation consuming the same. They
would IN no sense be less we'll nourish-
ed or fed by eating cornmeal In place
OF wheat -four.

Rye -four has been extensively used in

.116.S calories in an ounce of oatmeal,

have in this country. AS matter or
fact, our people would be better off and
more economically fed if We consumed
much larger quantities of oameal or oat
products.
These facts are presented for the IN
formation and advice of our readers in
order that they may be intelligently in

be used therefor. This information
should convey to them the fact that
cornmeal rye flour, oatmeal and other
cereal substitutes advised for use under
present conditions can be used with

results. and that the human body can
