The sanitation course requires the
mess officers to keep kitchen, mess
hall, refrigerators, ovens and cook
ing utensils hygienically clean. This
applies to tables and floors. How to
set the tables is an important part
of the study.
Experiments are conducted to de-
wise means of using substitutes for
flour, such as oatmeal, cornmeal and
rice flour. Use of syrup instead Of
sugar wherever possible is encour-
aged.
Food wastage," said Captain Nor
rell, "is not always the fault of the
soldier at the mess table. The cook
is often to blame. If he doesn't cook
the food right, it will be distasteful
TO the men and they will refuse to
eat all set before them. The we'll
cooked meal puts the men in good
spirits as we'll as helping them ply

There's no reason why a person
should take sickening, salivating cal
omel when few cents buys a large
bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone--a per-
feet substitute for calomel.
1t is a pleasant, vegetable liquid
which will start your liver just as
surely as calomel, but it doesn't make
YOU sick and cannot salivate.
Children and grown folks can take
Dodson's Liver Tone, because it is
perfectly harmless.

amusement of the U. s Marines

c., near hear.
While doing "police duty" on
the island few days ago, squad
of "soldiers" saw what appeared
to be gray green log lying on the
edge of swamp Closer iDvestl.
cation caused the "log' to turn,
aud with a mighty splash, a huge
alligator luDged back into the
swamp.
The Marines made a diligenl
search for the gator, but failed to
locate it. After darkness fell,
however. they returned with sticks
and clubs OF, all sorts and pro
ceeded to "beat up" the swamp in
true alligator hunting style and
finally succeeded in capturing and
killing the alligator.
The incident caused a great deal
of excitement about camp and how
there is an "alligator party" held
almost every night.
So far three of the alligators
have fallen victims to the willy Ma
