FRESH TROUBLE BREAKS
Westerville, Ohio, Business Men May Ask Removal Of Harding's Friend

WESTERVILLE, Ohio, July 20.- When Warren c. Harding of Marion, O., was elected President he ap- pointed Mrs. Mary E. Lee, an old friend. of this neighboring place as pcstmistress of Westerville. The Westerville postmastership pays well as Westerville is the home of the Ma tional Saloon league and there is considerable mail to be handled.
 But Mrs. Lee did not get along well with some of the men employees and four or five of them were removed. The Business Mems association and many prominent citizens protested but Mrs. Lee stood her ground and was backed up by the federal civil service commission. Lack of har- mony' was the charge.
 Things quieted down for time but trouble broke out with renewed vengeance yesterday when another employe was dismissed. Now the Westerville business men say they will protest to President Harding when he returns from his trip to Alaska. Some say the President will be asked to remove Mrs. Lee.

What Is Grape-N Nuts

Grspe-Nuts 10 Q highly nutritious
food in the form of crisp, golden gran
ules. 1t contains the full nutriment of
wheat and barley, including vitamin-B
and mineral elements required for
building sturdy, health. These ele-
ments are often lacking in the ordinary
diet, chiefly through "over-re6nement"
in the preparation of food.
No other food is so thoroughly baked
as Grape.Nuts. More than 20 hours
are consumed in the baking process
which makes Grape-Nuts easy to
digest, and also develops a natural
sweetness from the grains themselves.
The form and orispness of Grape
Nuts invite thorough masticstion-
decided advantage because this not
only provides proper exercise for the
teeth, but makes for good digestion.

NEARLY HALF A MILLION
MOTOR CARS IN WISCONSIN

Fred R. Zimmerman, secretary OF
state, says that by the end of 1928,
there will be 100000 motor vehicles
licensed in Wisconsin, nearly 100000
more than ever before. Green county
has the largest number of automobiles
compared to population, one car for
every Alb people.
Walworth county is a close second
with ratio of ownership of Ais, fol-
lowed by Washington county with T.
so; Grant county, 4.57; Dane, 4.59;
Jefferson, 4.63; and Calumet, 4.86.
In all other counties the ratio is above
five persons to the car. The entire
population of any of these counties
could be loaded into motor vehicles
owned in the county and then have
room to spare.
Eleven years ago there were 1858
motor vehicles registered, with an
ownership ratio of one car to every 80
persons. Fifteen years ago there
were fewer than 500 automobiles in
the state
