lily the problem of what to have for
luncheon" becomes little more diff
cult
a ctid's heartiest meal should come
at the middle Of the day A nourtsh-
ing clear soup, an easily digested
meat-not too much of tia starchy
vegetable, bulky mineral vegetable
and a sweet makes a balanced ration
desirable for the noon meal.
In case of carrying the luncheon to
school this same general rule should
be borne in mind.
In tho winter thermos bottle of
hot soup or cocoa, brown bread and
sandwiches, filled with nuts and
cheese or chopped raisins and nuts,
a vegetable sandwich, a piece Of plain
cake or cookie and, when cocoa Is
used, an apple or pear or few Cali
fornia grapes, constitutes a luncheon
that gives the needed amount of nour-
ishment without danger Of indigestion

 Contact with Carranza soldiers all so on tho trail of the bandits and a heavy rain which wiped out the fresh trails resulted in decision to abandon the chase. The Mexican federals were encountered by scout patrol, and after d conference, army officers decided to abandon the pursuit until later. In the meantime the rain had wiped out the trails of the bandits, who were only a few hours ahead of the Americans. The punitive eXpedi- ton made the return in single column with three cavalry troops leading pack trains. machine gun troops and other units following The troops acted as rearguards.
 The six days below the border re- suited in the killing of four bandits by troops and death of one by ma chine gun bullets from an airplane. Nine bandits, said to be part of the Renteria band. were captured az Coyane. in a dancehall, by Carranza soldiers.
 Reports that Jesus Renteria, leader of the bandits. had been killed were brought to the border. but could not be confirmed.

SUGAR SHORTAGE
 ALARMS STORES ANDRESTAURANTS
War Time Restrictions Pre-. vail In Many Eating
 Places

The scarcity of sugar continues to worry restaurant and storekeepers while several large wholesale houses have promised relief by the first of November the business men cannot see just where it is coming from.
 Sugar has become so scarce in Bridgeport now that the larger res taurants of the city have placed war time restrictions on the use of the much sought sweets. Bowls and jars have disappeared from the tables and in their place the waiter bringing an envelope containing just sugar for one cup of coffee.
 Officials of the Davey Brothers and the Logan chain stores in Bridgeport say that they cannot secure a large enough shipment to last their stores more than a day.
 Inquiry among the wholesale groc- CTS in Bridgeport disclosed the fact that there is very little sugar in the local market and that there will be little or no sugar in this city for the Christmas trade.
 Miner, Read & Tullock say that they are entirely out of sugar at the present time but expect a small ship ment in a few days which they will distribute among their customers and that they will be unable to give more than 50 pounds to any one grocery man.
 They will receive only two more small shipments before the first of January or until the new crop is avail able.
 The sugar will not be distributed this year on certificates as it was last year but the Government Equaliza- ton board will allow each wholesale grocer an amount proportionate to the amount he used last November and that must do him for the month. This amount the wholesaler will distribute to the retailer on the same plan and the retailer can dispose of it as he likes.
