w. Brandon, of Tuscaloosa, has
apparently won the democratic
nomination for governor of Ala
bama over Colonel Bibb Graves

ing majority. Due to the length
of the ballots, returns have been
coming in slowly, but indications
are that Judge Brandon has car
ried every county reporting, in
cluding Montgomery, his oppon-
ent s home.
After visiting in Salem for a
short time, Mr.. and Mrs. Craig
Baker of Seattle, left here yester-
day by automobile for Portland.

Food Accessories
and Beverages

The list of the food accessories
is one that does not need consldera,,
ton from the standpoint of food
value, but allowance must be MADE
for it in the food budget. 1t IN
cIudes such materials as spices,
flavorings and leavening agents,
and tea and coffee which are, as
well. beverages. These add either
to the flavor, variety, or texture OF
the food. While a certain amount
of money may legitimately be spent
for them, it is we'll to keep in mind
the fact that they, with the eXcep-
ton of yeast, have no food value IN
the strict sense.
Water is the chief beverage 1t is
impossible to live for any length OF
time without water, although it Is
possible to survive for weeks with
out food. Water softens the food
and aids in its digestion and in car.
rying nourishment to all parts OF
the body. 1t also carries away
waste from the body: In a sense,
water acts as a building material
since the body is two thirds water:
1t also helps TO regulate the neat Oh
the body. It is not possible to state
the exact amount of water needed
as a beverage because the amount
taken in food varies. and because
the amount given off by the body
varies with activity and tempera-
ture. However, the average person
needs at least 8 glasses or two
quarts a day. Recent experiment
tai work has shown that the moder-
ate use of water at meals actually
stimulates the flow of the digestive
juices and is an aid to digestion.
This fact should not be taken to
mean that food should be washed
down with water instead of being
chewed or that much ice water is
not Objectionable.
Tea and coffee are stimulants,
but there is apparently a difference
in their effect upon individuals
They should never be given to chill
dren. For adults, the best way to
test their effect, if one is an habit
Alexandria gazette. [volume] (Alexandria, D.C.) 1834-1974, 1922-06-22

ual user Of them, is to go without
them and see whether headaches
sleepiness, or languor result. II so
it is certain that the person is de-
pending upon them as stimulants
If one is not accustomed to their
use, one can easily tell their effect
by noticing whether drinking them
causes nervousness, waketulness,
or papitation. Undoubtedly it is
much better for those persons who
are greatly stimulated by tea and
coffee to go without them.
Chocolate and cocoa both come
under the generally accepted def
milton of beverages, but they cannot
be Chased as such 50 strictly as tea,
and coffee for the reason that they
both have considerable food value.
Chocolate is about II per cent pro-
TEN and SO per cent fat. Cocoa has
much of its fat removed in manu-
facture hut still contains 27 pei
cent fat and 20 per cent protein.
A quarter of square of bitter
chocolate furnishes about 80 Gallo
ries of energy, r over twice as
much as is given by two teaspoons
fuls of cocoa. With milk and sugar
added there is decided food value in
a cup of either beverage, but both
chocolate and cocoa contain a
stimulative ingredient. The use Of
much cocoa by young children is
questionable, but small amounts
may be added to the milk for flavor.
On account of its high percentage
of fat, chocolate should not be given
to children

SHINE MACHINES
MADE HERE.
Emerson Steam Pump Conn.,
pany Makes Novel
Machine
Shines to Cost Nickel and Eliminate
Tips-Six First Time, 1900 Later
ALI Made Here.

Making machines to shine shoes is
new development in the industrial
life of Alexandria. The Emerson
Steam Pump Company is preparing
to make large number Of these ma
chimes for the international Shoe
Shine Corporation. This machine, by
the way, will bring the price of a
shine back to a pre-war basis of five
cents.
The machine which bears patent
marks at various intervals since 1908
is really wonderful piece of ma
chnery. To operate it, all the customer
is required to do is to sit on a stool,
nut his feet on the stand and drop a
nickel in the slot, all the rest is left
to the machine. Power to run the
machine is developed by the means of
IS quarter-horse power motors. In the
course OF receiving a shine, the shoes
are first vigorously brushed by a
stiff haired brush, then comes the
polish brush which applies the polish
from a little container and this
brush. in turn, is followed by three
shining brushes and last of all comes
the rag brush which applies the gloss.
All this requires less than two min
utes, to be exact, just one minute and
fifty-five seconds. This machine, to
be placed for the first time, will not
be sold but run on royalty basis.

PROGRESS ON
NEW SCHOOL
Superintendent North Says
1t Must Be Thru in
Two Months
Window Frames Being Sct-TwO
Months Before il is Needed-Lack
of Material to Blame.

1--WE must get through by the mid
die OF September" ssld G. W. North,
superintendent in charge of work on
the new siXteen-rOom graded school
building being erected on the high
school lot by the King Lumber Com
pany of charlottesville. Rumors are
current that the building will not be
ready for occupancy by the begin
ming of the next school term which
peglns about the middle of Septem-
Der.
With the foundations complete and
ne walls going up well, things
nevertheless look unpromising. There
IS not two months before the time
limit Of the contractors expires. Mr.
North says that the work OF con-
struction has been pushed as rapidly
as possible but that the problem OF
getting material has held them back
to a great extent. The walls are well
advanced and window frames have
been set for the lower story and as
soon as the second story is started
another gang of workmen will be en-
aged and probably night shift
Will also be put TO work. Material Is
col1ing in well just at the present
time, says Mr.. North, and while 1t is
.nnlng he says he hopes they may be
.Uie to get enough to see the job
through.
The basement of the new building is
nearly complete as is also the main
floor. This work is of reinforced con-
crete construction. The floor of the
ground hall is of the same material
and IS being finished in red. The con-
crete work is being done by a sub
contractor.
The walls are being built entirely
of brick, the outside OF regular build
ing brick and the inside of fine grade
pressed brick. The interior walls are
finished along at the same time with
the outside thus completing in one
operation what is usually done IN two.
The building when completed Will
have cost the city something like SoO,-
>. Inc King Lumber Company was
awarded the contract for the con-
structlon work at the price of sos, 461;
the American Heating and Nentllat-
ing company, of Richmond, for heat
ing and ventilating at $685. with an
additional $S15 for the Johnson reg
ulating system; j. Kent White, of
Alexandra, for electrical conduits
and wiring $1,419.73, and in addition
to these items the plumbing will have
TO be done and as yet no bids have
been received for this portion OF the
work.
From indications at the present
time, it seems that the erection OF
this building will overcome all the
difficulties resulting from a congested
condition that has existed in the
schools of this city for some years
owing to the lack Of room. Many
classes which heretofore have only
received halliday instruction Will
now receive full time. The high school
will also have more room for It's stu
dents in that three grade classes which
occupied it's rooms during the past
session will be removed to the new

Diet in tuberculosis

tuberculosis is another disease in
which, as IN typhoid fever, diet Is
extremely important and plays a
large part in the cure. The tuber-
Gle bacilli not only destroy the It's
sues of the body but also produce
polsons which 90 through the en-
tire system of the patient and cause
fever, loss of appetite, and other
conditions which cause the body
structures to waste away. In tn
berculosis it is of the greatest i'm
portance to keep the body well nour-
lshed. A quart of milk a day is
not too much for the patient to
consume in addition to a liberal sup
ply of fresh fruits and vegetables.
Part of the milk should be taken
between meals so that a greater
amount of more concentrated food
can be eaten a: meals. Formerly an
excessive use of eggs was advoca-
ted for the tuberculosis patinet,
but specialists now consider this
unnecessary it quart of milk day
is added to an oCnerwise liberal diet
Loss of appetite is one of the
things that makes it hard for the
sufferer from tuberculosis to re-
ceive proper nuOrishment. 1t is
almost impossible for a person who
is taking on exercise and who has
no desire for food to increase the
amount eaten enough to keep the
body built up against the ravagcs
of disease. Since there is no drug
that will kill the germ of tuberculo-
sis, it is only by strengthening all
its defenses that the body is able to
win the fight, and the defenses can
be strengthened only by plenty of
fresh air and, sunshine rest, and an
abundance of good food.
Even though the patinet must Of
ten continue eating when he has no
desire for food, this does not mean
that he should be stuffed, as one
of the most important things 10
consider is to keep the digestive
tract in as good condition as posi-
BILE. The diet should be planned If
possible to bring about steady
gain weight until the patient has
reached the greatest weight which
he is known t. have reached be-
fore contracting the disease, but 1t
is not considered that fattening be
yond that point is desirable.
While the amount of food neces-
sary TO attain this gain in weight
will vary with the individual, as a
general thing about one third more
food than he needs under ordinary
circumstances with the same lack of
muscular activity will suffice. More
emphasis she Md be put upon protein
and fat than in the ordinary diet
Additional pcotein is needed be-
cause of the wasting of the body
tissues since it furnishes the neces-
sary material for rebuilding, Fat
is very valuable, especially when
the patients appetite is small, be
cause its high fuel value makes it
possible to keep the bulk of the
days diet within practical limits.

CHLDREN'S HOME SOCIETY

The Gazette, for more than d
year past, has given aid and pub
licity to propaganda for the relief
of the children of the Near East.
1t has done this both as a duty ard
a pleasure. But while convinced
that Virginians should do all II
their power to alleviate distress
in other countries, we none the
less are firm believers in the adage
that charity begins at home.
There is an organization, duly
Incorporated under our state laws,
known as the Children'S Home
Society of Virginia, which for
nearly a quarter Of a century has
devoted itself to the noble work
of seeking out the homeless and
neglected waits OF the state, and
placing them under guardianship
where they can secure the bIcs-
sings of clean home-liIe and l
Christian training and education,
This praiseworthy institution has
placed upwards OF three thousand
children in good homes, since its
inception, and has as its legal
wards today, nearly two thousand
little ones who have been cruclly
deprived OF their parents or nat
ural guardians.
Looked at from a purely eco
nomE standpoint, the making OF
good citizens out OF children 9th
erwise liable to be led into lives
of vice and crime, means an in
crease in productive value to the
state OF many thousands OF dol
lars per capita, and the saving OF
an equal amount i'll corrective and
penal institutions and the maChln-
cry OF the law incident thereto
But this consideration IS to OUT
mind lar less important than the
saving OF the human soul, and the
beStowal OF the graces OF civiliza-
ton upon the unfortunate chill
dren, who, through no fault OF
their own, lack that most sacreC
beatitude that comes to the rest
OF uS-a mothers love and a faith
er'S care and protection! Besides
we are following the more-than
once repeated admonition OF th(
Master, whose tenderness for th'
little ones was mCaSurc!eSS and I'll
