Laxative Diet

CONSTIPATION is due to variety Of
causes. but faulty food habits are
responsible for the greater number of
cases. The prevalent American diet
of meat, potato. white bread and
sugar which is decidedly lacking III
bulk contributes largely to this quite
general difficulty.
There are a number OF medicines
that relieve this condition but the
habitual use of any of them should
be avoided, and the best way to cor
rect it is by regulating the diet,
which should contain course, bulky
foods and fats. unless for some per
sonal idiosyncrasy of digestion it IS
best for the individual not to take the
latter.
Many cases of chronic constipation
are helped by the use of mineral oil
but this is not absorbed by the system
and does not cause the i'll effects of
the commonly used medicines Since
this oil sometimes causes digestive
disturbances its effects should be
carefully watched aad the amount
taken adjusted accordingly.
Before a laxative diet is started
certain Individual conditions should
be carefully considered. A person
already overweight should not in
crease the amount of fat IN the diet,
nor should a person suffering from
exhaustion on account of lack - food
eat principally bulky foods contain
ing little nourishment.
Fruits, green vegetables and
course cereals should be eaten to
correct constipation. Practically all
fruits come under this heading, cs-
pecially dates, raisins, figs. prunes.
apples, pears, melons, oranges. lem
ons, lines and grapefruit. EXcep-
tions are berries having large seeds,
such as blackberries, raspberries and
grapes.
All vegetables are good for consti-
patton, especially celery, cabbage,
cauliflower, turnIps, asparagus. car
rots, parsnips, onions and spinach.
Coarse cereals are desirable es-
pecially those containing the whole
grain and breads made from cracked
wheat, oatmeal, graham, rye. bran
and gluten. Dates and figs may be
added to the breakfast cereal with
good effect, and raisins and nuts may
be added to bread. Bran has been
found to be most effective. 1t may
be added to mullins, bread or gems,
as well as to cooked or uncooked GER
cal. Granulated agar which can be
purchased at a drug store, may be
added to the cereal in the same way
as bran, or it may be taken in fruit
juice. In some cases agar is more
effective than bran, but in most cases
bran is just as effective and it is
much less expensive.

F0X'S FERRY

The slogan at the masthead OF
the Gazette, Ferry to Maryland
Shore" received a strong impetus
last night, when a delegation OF
nearly a dozen AleXaudrians went
in d body to the Fort Foote High
School, ON the Maryland shore, in
the interest OF the project, The
auditorium OF the High School
was packed, and the overflow filled
the Railways and adjoining rooms.
Strong and convincing arguments
were put up by Capt Evans, R. L.
Knight and Irwin Dicncr, which
met with enthusiastic response
from the Marylanders. Commo-
dore Edwin +. Carver, OF the Old
Dominion Boat Club, generously
rendered his beautiful motor boat
to the visiting delegation, and the
trip was indeed a delightful eX-
perience. The hosts were the
Alexandria gazette. [volume] (Alexandria, D.C.) 1834-1974, 1922-06-09

Community Centre Club, OF the
Fort Foot section, and the MEM
bers of the club furnished inSpir-
ing music, both instrumental and
vocal. A full and free discussion
was had after the speeches, and it
was decided to begir. an active and
energetic campaign IN furtherance
OF the enterprise.
What this means to Alexandria
has been frequently set forth in
this paper. Briefly it means the
occupancy of a hundred vacant
stalls in our market on Saturday.
1t means fresh fruits, berries, and
vegetables. 1t means the throng-
ing Of the Great White Way on
gala occasions. 1t means a daily
or weekly influx from thousands
of thrifty and prosperous class,
who will spend their money III
Alexandria. 1t means the foster
ING of social ties and friendship
that will make for a better citizen
ship. 1t means the re-creating Of
Alexandria as the legitimate me
tropoGs for the Maryland popula-
ton along the Potomac. 1t will,
in short, be equivalent to the es-
adjustment OF a half-dozen fac
tories in our midst.
The certainty Of this Ferry was
never 50 strong and the interest
never so marked as at this very
moment.
The trip last night was a gen
uine Boosters Excursion and did
excellent work for Alexandria.

amounts some less and some not at
all. While milk, cream, butter, the
yolk of eggs, land the leaf vegetables
are our main sources of supply of
the fat-soluble vitamin Oleomar-
garine, or butterine made of cleo
oils, especially is churned with milk,
contains a rather large amount of it,
but butterines made with vegetable
oils and nut buffers appear to be
lacking in it.
When fat is heated to a high tenn
perature it begins to decompose and
to form substances which are irri-
tating to the digestive tract. The
temperature at which this occurs va
ries greatly with the different fats;
for this reason a fat having high
decomposition point makes a better
frying fat than others. TO avoid de-
composing the fat by high heat, as
low temperature as will give good
results should be used in deep fat
frying. Fat-soaked food is always
unattractive, so care should be taken
to fry food in fat hot enough to
harden as quickly as possible the out
side of the food. For the adult a
moderate amount of food should not
be unwholesome, but for children all
fried food should be avoided.
In the United States. the average
amount of fat used per person is said
to be far higher than in most Euro
pean countries. However, much of
this is probably wasted. The amount
eaten by different persons varies
widely. Unless the individual is
muscularly active or living in very
cold climate, the excessive use of fat
in the diet is apt to cause digestive
disturbances. Within certain limits.
fats and carbohydrate may replace
each other in the diet.

The Citizens Military
Training Camps

The War Department in carrying
ont tho will of Congress as express
sed in the National Defense Act is
conducting series of summer
training camps throughout the
country from July u to August
2G. Camps for the Third Corps
Area, which comprises the states
of Pennsylvania, Maryland and
Virginia, will be held as follows;
For infantry, cavalry and field ar
tillery, Camp Meade, Maryland; for
Coast Artillery, Fort Monroe; the
Air Service will conduct its school
at Langley Field. and the Motor
Transport Service will be at Camp
Holabird near Baltimore. Ot
greatest interest to the AleXandrian
will be the engineer camp at Hum
phrys.
Under our present military pol
lev, these camps are looked upon as
a source of trained soldiery in time
of war. Aside from personal bene-
fits received from the active out
door life, which in itself more than
repays one for the months attend
ance. the youth Of the nation must
in time be taught that attendance
at Mt last one of these camps is a
patriotic duty. The World War
left us with a wealth of trained of
ficcrs. but unfortunately this eX-
cellent body of men must in time
pass the period of military value.
it is through the agency of the
training camp that requirements
must be had to make good the raw
ages of age.
All camps conduct three separate
courses. The "Red" or primary
course teaches the student the ele-
mnts of military life, the simple
fundamentals of the profession Of
arms. 1t really prepares the young
man for the secondary or white"
course. The student who passes
form this second course is qualified
to be carried on the roster of the
Organized Reserves as q noncom~
missioned officer. The final or
the blue" course, qualities a
man for commission is the Organ
lied Reserves. The minimum age
for attendance at the camps is II,
tho maximum 80. The minimum age
legation for further military service
is incurred through attendance at

one of the camps. 1t may be looked
on as a pleasant, healthy months
outing at the Governments expense,
with sports and athletics thrown In.
The Government pays transporta-
ton and expenses to and from
the camp; furnishes the student
with food, uniforms, medical atten-
ton, and asks in return hearty CO.

A SCARED ELEPHANT

There is no doubt that the Re
publican re-actionaricS are badly
scared. Indiana, Pennsylvania,
and Iowa! All gone to the bad.
A rebul,c has been administered by
the decent and progressive Gle
ment OF the Republicans TO those
in their ranks who voted to seat
the malodorouS NeWberry; to
those over whom Lodge and
Smoot crack cruel whip; to those
who are building up a tarltt-walI
that will keep out imports and keep
in exports; to those who are sub
servient TO big business; and to 4
Party in power that has been re-
miss and careless in its impera-
tive legislative duties, and has let
two years so by with no single
notable achievement OF benefit to
the masses of the people.
The handwriting has appeared
on the wall. The old Stalwart
element OF the Republicans Is once
more doomed to failure and de-
feat. and this time 50 deep and
damning that it will never again
dare to appear before the intelh-
gent electorate Of this country;
an electorate that has learned to
think and act for itself.
With the right men for the
presidential ticket next year the
Democrats will march to a sweep
ing and decisive victory. The Ca
zette believes that these men of
destiny may be already appearing
on the horizon of national politics.
In the inner circles OF Democratic
leadership. too. things are being
discussed that will make highly i'll
tercstiug news in the not distant
future. Vt any rate, the prospects
are cheering Tor a Democratic Nd
ministration in 1924.

FATS

The term fat includes oils as well
as the solid fats. All fats are very
concentrated foods, supplying the
body with two and one fourth times
as much energy as the same weight
of either pure carbohydrates or pure
protein. While the diet could proba,
bly, do without any of the fats listed
as such, such as butter, cream, oils.
lard and bacon. because milk, eggs,
and meat all supply fat, it is advisa-
bic TO include them in the ordinary
diet. They are important for flavor
and for certain satisfying quality
which food seems to lack without
them. Fat retards the passage of
food from the stomach and has there
fore direct effect upon the sensa-
ton of hunger, because only when
the stomach has been empty for some
time, does this sensation begin to be
