Wheat Unnecessary in Diet.
DR.. Alonzo Taylor. the food admin
istration's representative on the war
trade board, told the hotel men wheat
was not a necessary element of diet
but a luxury, which people have grown
to prefer because of the superior ap-
pearance of the bread it produces.
Wheat has no advantage in nutri-
ton or taste over corn. barley. rice or
other cereals" Dr. Taylor declared,
the demand that he must have wheat
and can't eat substitutes Is either a
Stacker or a crank-and we must not
humor either.

distribution system, discovered when
in Germany for the department Of agri-
culture was due to the fact that the
system was administered for the upper
classes. who could get hams at $50
each. butter at IS pound, and other

gentine supply would be available in
Europe before this time" Mr.. Hoover
said. Those supplies will not arrive
for another two months in quantity,
and even then will be less than we had
expected. The consequence is that the
supply of breadstuffs in Europe is at
its lowest ebb. There is but one source
of supply, and that is the United
States"

Death Claims Soldier Boy

Last Monday afternoon Greer Dewitt, son of MT. and Mrs. B.. R. Dewitt, of this city, died of Spinal Meningitis.
 As all will remember Greer De- Witt, Grover Brown and Hugh Duke, were the first of Apache County's boys to leave for Camp Funston, Kansas, when the first quota of the drafted men was called for. It was there that Greer contracted t h e disease resulting in his distressing illness and finally his death. He con tracted. the disease by having in jected into him through vacina- ton by some d. hyena of a German passing as a human doc tor.
 At Camp Funston his life was dispaired of for a long time but through skill he recovered enough to make the trip home with his father. Herarrived home feeling pretty well but quite tired from the trip and for some time great hopes were entertained for his complete recovery. A week ago he took a sudden turn for the worse and suffered untold agony and on Monday, Jan. 18th, his spirit departed from this life. Wednesday morning alto o'clock funeral services were held at the Academy where a very large number of friends and relatives met to pay their last respects to Greer, one of Apache County's brig ht, good young men.
 Bishop Rencher and Bishop Jos. Udall were the speakers, and paid many worthy tributes to the departed. The choir sang beauti- ful selections and the band play ed beautiful music.
 The remains were inferred in the Westside cemetery Tn a ce- ment brick vault prepared especi- ally for him. A long concourse of vehicles loaded with sorrowing friends followed the remains to the cemetery. Taps were sound ed and the vault was closed.
 The sympathy of the entire city and also the surrounding towns go out to Mir. and Mrs. Dewitt and family in their sad bereave- ment.

In addition to the two pork less days now being observed, Tuesday and Saturday, the new instructions call for one porkless day meal for all other days. The wheatless days are now increased to two a week, Monday and Wednesday. In addition one wheatless meal is to be observed on all other days. Every day is made a fat-saving and sugar saving day, it being pointed out that vegetables oils should take the place of animal fats and that the American nation uses twice as much sugar as 1t needs.

 The many friends and acuuaint- ances of Mrs. Ralph Marble will 1 be sad to her of her death which
 occurred here on the 24th inst at
 12:10 a. m. She gave birth to a
 baby girl on the 16th and was
 getting along nicely until Satur-
 day morning when conditions
 which showed she was not doing
 as well as she should, but she was
 not considered dangerous; appar-
 ently she was no better Monday
 so Dr. Brown was summo*ed, he remained with her until Tuesday
 afternoon when he returned to St. Johns. She took decided change for the worse Wednesday morning anG Dr. Brown was again sent for, but it seemed there was nothing to be done to save her life. She gradually grew worse until the end came. Dr. Brown stayed with her until the last. Kind and willing friends were there to do any thing they could, but her husband, Ralph Marble, waited on her until the very last, showing what a true devoted hus- band he really was. Besides her husband she leavesIfve little ones four boys and the little girl to mourn her loss.
 Funeral services were held at the school house at 12 D. m. Fri day the 25th. Bp. David Love, presided. The speakers were Orson Wilkins and Bishop Love. The choir sang the songs Some time We'll Understand, 70 My Father, and Abide With Me- the latter being Mrs. Marbles favorite hymn. Ernest Wilkins offered prayer and Joseph s. Burk the benediction. The remains were buried in the cemetery northwest of town.
 The entire community sympa- thizes with the husband and chil- dren over their loss. The family has only been in our town a few months but in that short time Mrs. Marble has won the love and respect of all who have met and associated with her and from the reports of intimate friends her life has been one of service and kind deeds. Her every thought has been for her husband and children, and teachings has not been in vain as her children plain ly shows. May her remains rest in peace and her loved ones re, ceive that comfort which comes from an all wise Heavenly Father.
 Dr. Bouldin, County Physician, is in town, having been called to investigate a case of supposed to be diphtheria. The victim is Kenneth, the infant son of MT. and Mrs. E. c. Maxwell. Dr. Bouldin pronounced it a severe case of pneumonia and bronchitis. The throat being swollen so badly and coated on the inside caused friends to believe it might possi- bly, be diphtheria. The child is very low and the doctor enter tains but little hope of it's recOv- cry. The father is away trap ping and so far haven't been able to get him.
 MT. Twain, the man who bought the place known as the Becker Farm, with his wife, son and lit tie grandson, has been here for over a week. They are staying at Orson Wilkins awaiting the arrival of the rest of the family with their teams and furniture. As this is to be their future home we trust they will like it here when they are really located.
