.PREPARESFOR SALE
OF ARMY EATABLES
J.. G. McGrath Establishes
Headquarters to Direct
Sale of Surplus Food.
SCHOOLS MAY HELP

Surplus Army food supplies which
are to be sold at reduced prices to
the people of the District are not
likely to arrive here before Tuesday
or Wednesday, according to present
indications.
The supplies will be brought; from
the Army depot at Baltimore in Army
trucks to the Fish market and the
Eastern and Western markets-an
District institutions.
John c. McGrath. president of the
Citizens Food Council, today was pro
:vided with "A desk in the office of
Commissioner Gardiner, where he will
make headquarters as director of dis
tribution Of surplus food supplied
here.
Schools May Aid Sale.
The public schools will be thrown
open as distributing points for the
surplus Army food sale of the Com
misSionerS find that they need the
school space to make the sale a sue
cess.
This is the substance of a letter
which Ernest l.. ThurSton, Superln-
tendent of schools, sent to the Com
missioners by messenger at noon to-
day.
The board of education discussed
the question at the conference pre-
ceding its meeting yesterday and de-
cided to instruct the superintendent
to write such letter.
The letter reaffirms the belief of the
school board that the schools should
not be used generally as food centers,
with a possible detnment to school
work. but that in an emergency such
as the present, it sees no objection to
using the buildings to distribute the
surplus Army products.
From the fhraa District markets
these supplies may be transferred to
several auxiliary distribution points,
to be decided upon later.
Consumers. whether they buy direct
at the District markets or the auxil
larry stores, will have to convey the
supplies to their homes, as there are
no facilities available for a house-to-
house delivery.

Ame., Jan. l4.--There may be some

who then made hs escape from the
clutches OF the police after engaging
in a pistol duel with Motorcycle
Policeman cure.
At o'clock Saturday night. Cure
walked up to an unknown man on the
platform of the Northwestern depot
and placed him under arrest, The
man was a suspicious character but
submitted to his arrest so willingly
and meekly that the policeman had
no idea he would attempt to make his
escape.
Placing him in the side car OF his
motorcycle, Cure mounted to the seat
and as he went to start the machine
he looked up and the man had him
covered with two pistols. Ordering
the policeman to put his hands above
his head or he would blow his lamps

DESPERATE CONDITIONS.
Dss Moines Crowded With Soldiers
Ssskino Work.

Des Moines, Jan. l4.-Some desper-
ate measures will have TO be taken
in Des Moines to supply jobs for the
hundreds of men in need Of them.
c, NJ. Davis, head of The federal en-
ployment bureau Is waiting instruc-
tons from the head office in Chicago
es TO how the situation may be met.
About 100 men a day apply at the
employment bureau for work. No jobs
with the exception of temporary odd
jobs. are available.
Des Moines manufacturers and bus,-
ness men are being asked to cooper
ate as much AS possible. but the cri-
sis must be averted by some outside
force.
ITS an immense problem says
do with all these returned soldiers,
who are either stranded without
funds in Des Moines. or who have
come here thinking It good place to
locate"
Mr.. Davis declares the soldiers alone
would be bad enough. bur arsenal apd
government munition plants are turn
ing out hundreds Of men who need
other work.
Construction work Is practically at
a standstill here. The fact that many
women are retaining war" jobs is
further complicating matters.
The problem facing women employ
ment workers is not acute at present.
Practically all girls and women are
being located without serious trouble.

SPANISH INFLUENZA
MORE DEADLY
THAN WAR
Said That Epidemic Cost More Lives
Than American Loss in Battle.
Danger Not Over. Great Care
Necessary to Prevent
Further Outbreak.
Doe, Coo, $40

The appalling ravages of Spanish In
fiuenza in this country are perhaps best
realized by the statement recently
made. that more deaths have resulted
in little more than a month from this
disease than thru our whole eighteen
months participation in the battles OF
the European war.
Our greatest danger now. declare au-
thorities. is the great American ten
dency to forget easily and to believe
the peril Is over. Competent authori-
ties claim the coming of cold weather
is very apt to bring a return of this
disease and there should be no let up
turnout the winter months OF the fol-
lowing easily observed precautions re-
membering that Influenza is far easier
To- prevent than cure.
Influenza is a crowd disease. Avoid
crowds as much as possible. Influenza
germs spread when ignorant or careless
persons sneeze or cough without using
a handkerchief. Cover up each cough
or sneeze. Do not spit on the floor
sidewalk, in street cars or public
places. Avoid the use Of common drink
ing cups and roller towels in public
places. Breathe some reliable germi-
cidal and antiseptic air to destroy the
germs that do find Judgement in your
nose and threat.
Remembef. no safer precaution
against Influenza could be employed in
this manner than to get from the near
est drug store complete Hyomei Out.
fit consisting of bottle of the Pure Oil
of Hyomei and little vest pocket hard
rubber inhaling device. into which a
few drops of the oil are poured. You
should carry this Inhaler about with
you during the day and each half hou,
or so put it in your mouth and draw
deep breaths Of it's pure. healing germ
killing air into the passages Of your
nose. throat and lungs.
BY destroying germs before they
actually begin work in your blood. you
may make yourself practically immune
to infection.
All these suggestions about Spanish
Influenza are equally true in the pre-
vention of colds. catarrh of nose and
throat. bronchitis and even pneumonia.
Don't become careless. Do your part.
Keep the germs away. You may save
yourself serious illness and the loss
of several weeks work. Sold by A. r.
