About Candy.

Tho slogan adopted by the confec-
tioners. Everybody likes candy" is a
good slogan, because it tells the
truth! UnquestionabIy everybody does
like candy. and Americans are race
endowed with national sweet tooth.
If we were always sure to. give
candy its rightful place, that OF
food, all would be well; but we are
apt to think of 1t as treat" what
the French call so aptly ''bonne
bouche," and the result Is oftentimes
a one-sided diet
Our lawmakers are possessed of the
fectionery with other foods, and set
forth in detail the legal requirements
that must be met before confection-
ery may hope to be ciassed as pure
food" Progressive and right-minded
manufacturers are constantly on the
alert to assist the food control on
cials in their fight to keep impure
candies out Of the market, so that the
parents who guard the health of their
youngsters have this responsibility
taken of their shoulders
But do the parents themselves do
their part equally we'll?
Are they always well Informed as
to tho food value Of candy and of its
proper relation TO other foods eaten
by the children?
The fact that sugar enters so large
ly into the composition OF candies
makes tho question largely one of the
food value Of sugar and OF its place
In the diet Studies of American di-
etaries show that we are eating far
too much sugar IL we are to insure
we'll balanced diet. The agreeable
taste of sugar and the almost instan-
taneous sensation Of refreshment that
follows its use makes it very difficult
for some of US to be temperate in its
use, and we thereby min fmize the
good effects Of a valuable foodstuff by
eating too much.
Especially in tho case OF children
is 1t necessary to watch this closely.

a large quantity of sweets is eaten,
the almost inevitable result Is lack
of appetite for fruits and vegetables,
on which they must depend for salts,
and this is only one OF the bad ef-
fects likely to follow an excess Of
candy.
Intelligent firnness on this point,
however, can accomplish wonders,

MISS M'KANE PLAYS
 izl GREAT GAME TO, WIN
American Girl Starts Well But Weakens After 1.s.. First Set Of Title Play

., WIMBLEDON, England, July A. :. On the Anniversary of America's. his :. teric nose -thumbing at the rule of Great ]. Britain, a young American girl. was compelled to acknowledge the reign of 6 1 British young woman on the ,tennls court. Miss Helen Wills, of California, a rare beauty among the famous women athletes was defeated in the final and championship match for the women tennis championship of the world by Miss Kitty McKane of London, who was affectionately known as the tea shop girl when she first came into prom : thence a few years ago.
 Queen Mary and the Duke and Duchess of York were in the great crowd of 15,OOO.
 Miss Wills won the first set of the match for Mile. Suzanne Lenglens de- faulted title, GA, but lost the next two 1, sets, 4-6, Al. When it was all over the American girl said she was sorry she had missed several chances to win the third and deciding set, but added that Ebe had no excuse to make and re- marked, Miss McKane simply played better game than l did"
 Wills Outplayed McKane
 Miss McKane was gracious winner. Miss Wills took me off my feet in the first set" she said.- She is an exceed ingly strong player and has improved greatly since our matches in the Wight man cup tournament just recently. l was fortunate to win."
 Some of the British experts on the sitelines thought that Miss Wills was unlucky and had played little too cautiously at times when reckless vlgor might have overwhelmed Miss Mckane and won the title. Miss Wills had been chosen by the majority as the favorlte in the genteel wagering which accompa- nied the occasion. However, the expert opinion also held that Miss Mchane had developed remarkably of late and had surpassed all her previous exhlbl- tions in the battle for the last set.
 Myrick Passes Compliments
 Julian Myrick, of the United States Lawn Tennis association, said the match was one of the best he ever saw. The American players, men and women, will now proceed to Paris to prepare for the Olympic contests in, which Miss Wills and Miss McKane may meet again. There is a possibility also that Mile. Lenglen will play through in the Olympic matches, and that either the American or the British girl will meet her in the showdown which Mile. Leng-

len evaded in this tournament by re- tiring from the competition just before she was to have faced Miss McKane in the semi-final. The tennis devotees candidly disblieve Mile. Lenglen's s claim of illness and suspect that she de- faulted only because she thought she would be defeated.
 Miss McKane Confused
 Miss Wills was supreme in the first set and had Miss Mckane confused by her cross-court game. The British girl contributed to her own defeat in large part by errors. But in the second set Miss Wills became uncertain and inter- spersed her short game with several drives out of the court, which were just barely wide. At the start of the set, Miss Wills smashes were too heavy for Miss Me Kane to handle and she was placed in a defensive position for 9 time. Miss Wills was slow in the final set%and Miss McKane flashed about the court and defied her at the net with audacious confidence. Miss Wills, never known to betray her feelings by facial express sions or gesture, was still calm after losing her chance for the title. She was noisily applauded as she walked off the court and Miss McKane was ac- claimed for she was the first British woman to win the championship in ten years.
 American Pairs Meet
 Two American pairs will meet in the final and championship round of the mems doubles. Vincent Richards and Francis Hunter will oppose k. N. Will Hams and Watson Washburn. This was determined when Richards and Hunter won from Raymond and Spence of South Africa. GA, 6-4, 6-2 in the semi-final and Williams and Wash burn defeated Lycett and Godfree of Great Britain in the other semi-final contest.
 Williams and Washburn lost the first set 4-6. They won the next two, 12-10 and 6-3. The fourth set stood at seven games-all when Lycett and Godfree withdrew because Lycett had strained a tendon.
 Englishmen Meet
 The final of the mixed doubles will bring out Gilbert and Miss McKane against Godfree and Mrs. Shepherd Barron. Gilbert and Miss McKane won their semi-final match with F. T. Lamb and Miss Harvey, 6-2, GA. God fire and Mrs. Barron defeated Gerald Woosnam and Miss Edith Covell, 6-4, 4-6, 6-4.
