NEWS PLElASES
 BUILDERS

New Haven, Cenn.. March s4- Officers of the Connecticut Builders Exchange here today were put into an optimistic frame of mind by the news from Denver, Colorado, that four building crafts there. members of tho Denver Building Trades Ceun- ell, had accepted wage reductions of 20 per cent, in order that building might start up at enoe and help to rehtora the economic equilibrium of that city. Acceptance of the reduc- ton followed a conference between the Master Builders Association, the Colorado Industrial Commission, and representatives of the trades union men involved.
 Building crafts in several other southern and western cities have all ready agreed to 20 per cent. reduc- tions, exchange officers said today; and with like action here on the part of Connecticut building tEadesmen, coupled with the downward trend of prices of building material, building operations in this state will soon start up.

the exchange men declare, will be felt in every other line of business and be a decided stimulant to them. In New Haven alone, it is hgured, the resumption of building opera tions on a large scale would mean thousands of dollars of the city's payrolls weekly, counting the wages paid to carpenters, plumbers, steam filters, masons, brick1ayers, electr1- cians, and others in the building trades.

Portable and eliminate large per
cent of illnesses. Such treatment
costs nothing to try, but little perse-
verance and stick-to-it-iyeness.
We know that there are four things
that the food which We eat is to DO
for us: To generate heat, to keep the
body warm, to rebuild and repair It's
waste tissues, to store up reserve en-
ergy for illness or emergency work,
and to produce energy to enable US
to walk and do all kinds Of physical
and mental work. Hard, mental labor
or hard physical labor uses up more
food than the inactive body, but even
that needs food to keep it in working
order.
A calorie is a measure Of heat or
energy which certain amount or
food yields when burned In the body.
Just as so much gas per cubic foot
produces q certain heat or light, so
100 a definite amount Of food gives
off so much heat and energy measured
in calories when we burn it in our
bodies. An active adult needs from
three thousand to three thousand
seven hundred calOries per day to
cover all the body needs. Just accept
this as we do that it takes two cup
fuls of many things to make a
pound. Science helps us in finding
the calOrie value of various kinds OF
food by giving us the hundred calorie
portions Of common dishes. For ex'
ample one small baked apple without
sugar yields one hundred calOries
one-half a medium-sized grape fruit
Yields the same, also a large banana
three prunes with tablespoonful Of
the Juice; two slices. One-fourth incl
thick of bread equal the same; one
tablespoonful Of butter, one cupful Of
cooked cereal. one tablespoonful o.
sugar. one-half cupful of whole mill

But when it comes expression OF opinion

Their viewpoint is almost certain to be that OF

NOTHING NEW.

The "wets" in New York staged Fourth OF
July parade against prohibition. The foreign-born
predominated. The dispatches say So but that
was unnecessary. We could know that without
the telling
America is not unanimous on the subject OF pro-
hibition or upon any other internal policy, That
which touches mems habits, arouses their Ire. IL
is the tenderest kind of subject.
An overwhelming majority in America believed
prohibition to be essential in order to stop a
source of great economic waste and to add to our
sef-control nation.
Protests are in vain. The march will be for
ward not backward. Prohibition has come to stay.
Enforcement sentiment will grow. In few years
old habits, forcbly abandoned will grow less I'M
perious in their demands. The next generation
will have no liquor habit to tantalize their Souls
Thoughtful men and women will be more or
less sympathetic with the state of mind Of these
protestants. We all rebel at interference with es-
tablished habit
Prohibition is an interference made necessary
for the general good, 1t will stick. In thirty
years liquor will be obsolete as human slavery
we will wonder why it was ever injured.
