Oklahoma City, March 27.--The
State Council of Defense is sending
letters to every county Council OF
Defense in the state, urging the ne
ceasity Of Immediately forming q
community organization for every
school district. In this way the real.
tiles of the war, the part every per-
son must play can be brought home
to every individual in Oklahoma.
oklahoma was one of the first
states in the Union to form commu.
nifty councils The prompt action
taken by this state resulted in a per.
sonal letter of recommendation from
President Wilson to j. NJ. Aydelotte
chairman of the Oklahoma State
Council of Defense. This state has
made splendid progress in this di
rection, as well as in the securing
OF loyalty pledges. Some weeks ago
over half a million such pledges had
been secured The present total is
probably over 100000. 1t is likely
that no other state has done better
in proportion to its population than
Oklahoma.
To secure lasting results, however,
permanent organizations reaching
every one in the state are needed
This will be secured by the school

Norman, okla, March 2S.-The
Food Administration for Oklahoma
has recommended to the National
Food Administration at Washington
that several Oklahoma dealers who
have rufesed shipments Of potatoes
be forced to close their doors
County Food Administrators in va
rious parts of the state have wired
state food headquarters that dealers
persist in refusing to accept spud
shipments. The principal reason Civ
en- by the dealers is that the price of
potatoes has dropped since the pur
chases we're made.
Several dealers who contehded
that the shipments were not In good
condition and refused to accept them
have been urged to accept the offices
of the food administration in deter
mining the amount of damages and
have agreed to accept the shipments
upon these.1erms.
Several dealers refuse to accept
the shipments upon any conditions
and these firms have reported to
Washington with the recommendation
that their doors be closed The ur
gent need of conserving wheat and
the fact that potatoes are such a vat
uable substitute for wheat eompels
the food administration to take dras
tic action in dealing with all those
who would permit potatoes to rot on

munity much larger debt next year
and It Is almost certain that some new
project will be on US before we could

year it was the hospital, Four years
ago 1t was our own building fund.
Last year forty men were all who
paid anything toward the support of
the Y. M. C.. A. above their nominal
dues which are never enough to pay
for the cost of our service because a
Y. NJ. c. A. like a church Is a philan-

ably give again hut this would not get
us out of the hole nor would it be

Twelve men on the building commit

toward tho buildings support last
year have proposed to apply their con-
tributions on the building debt here
after until that debt of $4,000 with its
interest is paid if the rest Of the COM

SALTS IS FINE FOR
KIDNEY, QUIT MEAT
Flush the Kidneys at Once When Back
Hurts or Bladder Bothers-Meat
Forms Uric Acid,

No man or woman who eats meat
regularly can make a mistake by flush
ing the kidneys occasionally, says a
we'll known authority. Meat forms
uric acid, which excites the kidneys;
they become overworked from the
strain, get sluggish and fail to filter
the blood-then we get sick. Nearly
all rheumatism, headaches, liver trou-
BILE, nervousness, dizziness, sleep1ess-
and urinary disorders come from slug
gish kidneys.
The moment you feel dull ache
in the kidneys or your back hurts, or
if the urine Is cloudy, offensive, full
Of sediment, irregular Of passage or
attended by a sensation Of scalding,
stop eating meat and get about four
ounces of Jad Salts from any pharm-
acy; take q tablespoonful in a glass
Of water before breakfast, and in a
few days your kidneys will act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, COM
bined with ltthia, and has been used
for generations to flush and stimulate
the kidneys, also to neutralize tho acids
in urine so 1t no longer causes trrtta-
ton, thus ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts Is inexpensive and Cannot
injure; makes a delightful effervescent
lithia-water drink, which everyone
should take now and then to keep the
kidneys clean and active and the blood
pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney
complications.
