before the agents of the federal board
were admitted to the military and ma
val hospitals. This exclusion was a
necessary war measure; but during this
period, as well as during the II months
which elapsed between our entering the
war and June 27, 1918, when the act
became law, thousands of disabled men
were discharged and were scattered all
over the United States without any
knowledge of their rights under the
law. Altogether, more than a year and
q. half of preatpus time was lost.4

TO DOUBLE NUMBER
IN REHABILITATION
Federal Board of Vocational Education
to Aid More Men-Has Been De-

WASHINGTON, Aug. % CORES
pondenee of the Associated Press -
Plans to more than double the number
of discharged soldiers, sailors and ma
rines receiving rehabilitation training
were announced today by the federal
board of vocational education The in

Of schools and colleges. More than 700
men are now receiving training.
N'There have been delays in CARRYING
out the work of vocational rehabilita.

most of them have been due to causes
which were beyond the control of the
board and which it has made an in

SHARK MEAT.
Tastes Like Young Pork But Not Quite
So Juicy.

A good many people do not know how
sharks meat tastes when it is cooked.
There is some talk of government in
vestlgation of this matter, so that every
body may get the taste at second hand,
The writer of the paragraph, owing to
the fact that he was good deal of a
seashore man at the time, has tasted the
cooked shark for himself.
The flesh of the shark, when a. South
ern cook presides over the kitchen, looks
very much like the meat OF young pig,
and tastes very much like that meat. The
main difference is that the flesh. of the
infant hog is a trihe more juicy
When one reflects that part of the
shark family was created with relish
for human flesh, or has been brought to
this liking by some millions of wears Of
evolution, it seems odd that man. when
he gets the chance, should also like te
eat the shark
! 1t goes to show that in the genera
| scheme of existence nothing is wasted
| The shark can get a good dinner4 cut o.
] a man, and the man can get a good din
ner out of shark
1t all depends on which one gets the
other first In either case, it is fair eat
ing for the one who gets the dinner

for physical examinations. Means for
securing whatever treatment is pre-

Il know Tanlac is something ex-

Minneapolis, Mimi, to a Tanlac re-
preventative recently. For twelve
years Mr.. Clark was well known
and respected harness maker in Min
neapolis, but he is retired now.

finally had to quit altogether. I had
trouble with gas forming on my

had awful pains, especially across my
chest, and for three weeks I had to
sit up in chair. I lost in weight
rapidly, going from one hundred and
nlnety-eight to one hundred and for
ty-five, an actual loss of fifty-three
pounds. I tried all kinds of medi-
cines and Treatments but got only
temporary relief.
"A friend of mine noticed about

tried it and improved wonderfully
and advised me to take it. Well, sir,

CHRISTMAS ACTS AS TONIC
Happy and Exhilarating Mental Spirit
Has Good Effect on People, De-
clare Medical Observers.

Close observers in the ranks of the
medical profession have noted one very
interesting fact concerning the Christ
mas season-that it generally has a
good tonic effect upon their patients.
In explanation of this the London
Lancet says that since Christmas has
come to be regarded as time for
good cheer, a universal feeling of con-
tentment and happiness is engendered
at this time of joyousness, routine is
for a while relieved, a certain fresh
ness is given to the daily round, diff
charitable spirit prevails. Is it, by
the way, hoping for too much that the
season OF good fellowship should leave
some lasting effect upon the manners
and methods of all?
1t may not be easy to trace exactly
why this sense of exhilaration and
well-being comes with the advent Of
Christmas, for the psychological fac
tors concerned are not simple. But
the main point is that the mental state
does everybody good, and the annual
festivity is just as excellent an insti-
tuition as the prescription of the physi-
clan which gives tone and vigor to the
struggle In life's race. There is no
need nowadays, thanks to the good
sense Of the people and the counsels
Of their medical advisers, to moralize
about the evils of stupid indulgence
in food, alcohol and tobacco on fes-
tive occasion such as the present.
Practically everybody realizes the
great physiological advantages of be-
ing wise on merry occasion and the
disadvantages Of being fool.
Many more persons than formerly
feel where use ends and abuse begins.
and they act sensibly accordingly; and
so far from it being crime to make
the season festive by enjoying, on a
little extended scale perhaps, the
creature comforts of life, some decided
good is done to both the mental and
physical health Of the individual.
The festive season may, therefore,
be welcomed which brings cheer to
thousands, which induces the generous
and charitable to brace the mental and
physical functions of the community
at large, giving it the opportunity Of
relinquishing its business and its wor-
ries for a time, to start again re-
freshed and ready for ''the trivial
round, the common task" The pre-
scription "A Merry Christmas" is
sound so long as the signature" Of
good sense is observed.
