make their supreme effort to send
Rock Island over the top in the
big financial drive next Sunday,
when members Of the teams, viii
canvass homes in the city for con-
tributions.
Although teams have already
been assigned their territory and
members are making their calls to
the homes Of on-church members
during the week, the final and big
gest effort will be made on Sunday
when all can be reached in their
homes.
The amount thus far obtained in
the drive falls far short of the
quota set for this city, according 10
estimates from the various
churches. Leaders are not discour-
aged. however. and believe that
with the showing OF Sunday, the
total will have reached a fair sum.

REFUSE TO BUY,
SUGAR REMEDY
Government Expert Says Sweets
Are . Costly Bad Habit
and . Laxury.
BY GEORGE B. WATERS.

IN. Z. A. Stan Correspondent
Washington.-The best way to
combat the high prices of sugar is
to quit eating it, according to Dr.
Carl Voegtlin. professor OF phar-
macology, government hygienic
laboratory.
At the present time the people
Of the United States are consum-
ing $2.000,000.000 worth of sugar a
year, and if the price goes to 80
cents pound. which is likely. they
will be eating it at the rate of 49,
600. 100000 a year.
To dispense with this sugar
would save $40 a year for each
person, or 800 for each family OF
five. To those who eat it in the
form of candy it would save much
more, as good candy sells for from
81 to 81 pound.
The best authorities in the Unit
ed States, including DR.. Harvey w
Wiley, recognized as one of the
worlds greatest food experts. say
refined sugar used for sweetening
is not only unnecessary, but injur-
ious to the system.
Sugar is luxury. and not an
essential food" says DR.. Voegtlin
When taken into the system sugar
is burned into carbonic acid and
water and in those forms elimina-
ted. The only thing it generate:
is heat and energy. The indirect
harm done by sugar is to destroy
the appetite for the forms of foods
that should be eaten, such as fruits
and vegetables. These foods con.
tain suffice sugar to furnish nee.
essary heat and energy. and at the

Round Decision Bouts Under
Rigid Restrictions.

ALBANY. n. Y. May 25.-Boxing
has come back into it's own in New
York state with the approval by Gov.
Smith of the Walker bill which will
permit f1fteen-round decision bouts
supervised by a commission to be
named by the executive and with
everybody connected with the game
licensed.
The new law, taking effect imme-
diately. creates a commission of three
at $4,000 year. Decisions are to be
rendered by two judges who will act
with the referee, and in case they can
not make a decision the referee will
name the winner. Even seconds must
be licensed. Bouts are to be held only
in buildings or places for which
licenses have been issued by the COM
mission and on which incorporated
clubs have leases for at least one
year. Bouts may also be held in
armories. and in that event the mil
itary law must be complied with.
The new law further provides that
no club holding bouts shall have any
financial interest in a boxer; that no
one under eighteen years may par
sixteen can be spectator: that five
ounce gloves must be used in the
lighter classes, up to and including
lightweights, and six-ounce gloves for
all heavier classes of boxers; that
clubs pay to the state 5 per cent of
the gross receipts.
The sum of $4,000 is appropriated
to put the law in operation.
