WHIST can't be used fresh. can for

One OF the safest rules for keeping
well Is TO eat n variety Of food. Veg
etables are n great help In giving va
rlety to your meals.
Eat vegetables every day: many are
mild lnxntives and they are better than
medicine,
Use many kinds and lots of them
Let them take the place Of part of the
meat and bread you are using today.
Don't think That because vegetables
contain 50 much water they are not
good food. They are one OF the most
valuable kinds OF food we have. Veg.
etabies have their own particular part
In the diet which neither meats nor
cereals nor fruits nor sweets can play.
Part That Vegetables Play.
They are sppetizers. Their delicious
davors stimulate digestion.
They furnish fuel and protein. Veg.
etsbles. such ns sweet potatoes,
green lima beans, green corn, white
potatoes. green peas, onions. beeis.
carrots and squash contain enough
starch and sugar to make them valu-
able as fuel foods. Some of these nre
protein foods, too.
They help prevent constipation.
The woody part Of vegetables is vol-
liable to give bulk to the food. Fos
very small children IL should he re-
moved by rubbing the cooked ve.eta-
BILE through sieve. but a grown per-
son OF sound digestion needs some yf
this woody portion. Don't cut out all
the hard part from asparagus aud such
foods. The mild acid In such vege-
tables az tomatoes hns some laxative
effect.
Minerals Are Needed
They furnish mineral matter. This
fs one Of the most Important parts
that vegetables plny in the diet. With
out small amounts Of mineral salts NO
part Of the body can be built they
are needed In nerves, brain. bone,
blood and muscles. Even after growth
these minerals must be furnished TO
replace the parts Of the body used mp
by exercise. They have an importHnt
pnrt tn keeping the different parts Of
the body working smoothly. Eat
variety Of vegetables TO furnish these
much.needed minerals
They furnish other important food

COL. DEEDS TO Be
GUEST AT DINNER

Recommended for coprt-martial IN
Charles E. Hughes aircraft report,
Col. L. A. Deeds is to be given an
honor dinner by high stan officers OF
the American army at the Army and
Navy Club Friday night.
The principal count against Deeds
that upon which former Justice
Hughes recommended his courtmar-
tial-was that he sold an aviation
field at Dayton, In which he held an
interest. to the Government in viola
tion of military law. The field. &C.
cording to the report, was entirely
unsuited for the purposes for which
II was to be used. being surrounded
by trees and telegraph wires and un-
der water part of the year.
Invitations to the dinner. are said
to have been accepted by many MEM
bers of the general staff, but British
and French officers who received in
vitations have declined to attend.
Military rules OF the British and
French armies provide that no officer
recommended for court-martial shall
be socially or officially received until
he has been exonerated. In the pc
culiar position in which they found
themselves. the British and French
officers invited to Ahe dinner asked
the advice of the heads OF the British
and French embassies. and were ad-
vised to reject the invitations.
The recommendation that Colonel
Deeds be court-martialed never has
been carried out Other officers ri
the signal corps. found guilty OF tech
nica1 offenses, and against whom
Hughes recommended civil prosecu-
tions, were exonerated by President
Wilson.
Colonel Deeds and Colonel Mont
gomery both were relieved OF their
duties In connection with the air
craft division OF the signal corps
when the Senate investigating COM
mittee's aircraft report was made
public. y
When Secretary Of War Baker re-
celved the Recommendation of former
Justice Hughes that Deeds be court
he referred the whole ques-
tion to the Judge advocate generals
office for study. Deeds at the same
time demanded an investigation by a
military board Of inquiry, which
would have power to recommend q
IL IL found him guilty
OF violations of military law.
At Secretary of War Bakers Office
IL was said today that while the
study being made by the Judge advo-
cate generals office was nearing COM
pletion, the results had not yet been
submitted to the Secretary. The
judge advocate generals office Is ex-
pected either TO recommend a court
martial or to advise granting Deeds
request for a board of inquiry.
