that Allan possessed charm, money

 Chicago, June 1.-General Wood will lose another set of Republican na- tional convention delegates pledged to him, it is indicated today in the preliminary hearings by the subcom- mittee hearing contests for seats. The subcommittee indicated that it would unseat a set of delegates at large pledged to General Wood, thus reduc- ing the number he holds.
 Decisions made by the subcommittee already eliminate a group pledged to Gov. Frank O. Lowden. A third de- cision by the committee, however, fa- vors the candidacy of Geenral Wood, as the delegation unseated was openly hostile to his selection as the nominee of the party. The first task for the subcommittee today is to hear contests filed by delegates from the District of Columbia.

Statistics show that although milk is fresher and cheaper in the country less milk is drunk by farm boys and girls than by city children. 1t is said that this accounts for the fact that the proportion of undernouTssh he'd children in the country is larger than in the city.
 The dairy division of the United States department of agriculture is CO., operating. with the state agricultural colleges to induce city and country children to drink more milk. Several drink more milk campaigns have been held in the last few years. The in- crease in milk consumption after a campaign has been from 1 10 8 per
