SAN DIEGO, Cal, April 3.-The
foul play alibi advanced when Chill
howee, Latonia Derby winner, trailed
the field in the Coffroth Handicap
Sunday, has been found groundless
after an investigation. Chilhowee
was suffering from chill, and moth
ing more.
The judges found that Chilhowee
did not collapse after the race, and
is in first.class condition now, and
that the horse was apparently suf-
fering from chill when he went to
the post, presumably brought on
when groom threw cold water on
him to wash off mud acquired in a
preliminary warm-up.

KANSAS CITY, No., April g.
Fifteen innocent men were in Fed

United States Government. That is
they are innocent, according to their
own statements.
Whether the charge was bootleg

prisoner was innocent in his own
mind. 1t had been a "frame-up,'
the other guy who got off was
the guilty man, or he had taken the
Jolt" to save the other defendants.
AS the men, en- route to spend
from a year and a day to eighteen
months behind the bars, left Indian
apolis in charge of Deputy United
States Marshal Simon T. Hickman
and five guards Wednesday after
noon, they acted fairly hght-hearted.
Jokes about their appearance years

avoids publicity not much is generally known about him.
His name is Antonin Svehla. When Hungary went

No Partially Shown
By Community Chest

NY agency or organization tending toward coales-
~ cence of community spirit justfes itself. Any
4 n campaign that depends for its upon the
cooperation and coordination of ALL classes and fac
tons within the community is worth the effort and
pense necessary to conduct the campaign.
Such an agency is the Community Chest and such
is the campaign which now enters its second day.
The Community Chest does not represent one fac
tion one Sect creed denomination or one class
The Community Chest represents San Antonio as an
entity in its love of humanity.
One of the most troublesome and yet one of the
most unreasonable objections Community Chest workers
must overcome is the Discrimination upon the part of
many potential contributors to aid in any way directly
or indirectly, any charitable organization welfare
agency controlled by sect a denomination not of
the contributors own.
As matter of fact it may be automatically dem
onsrated that the average contributor aiding only his
pet charity when he drops his money into the Commun
y Chest In order to catch this point the contributor
must think from the angle of the charitable welfare
organization he favors
Each organization requires certain sum to carry
on its work for the year. If there no Community
Chest in San Antonio each organization would conduct
its own campaign The Community Chest merely re-
eves individual organizations of the necessity of max
ing individual appeals to the public.
Let think of the Community Chest quota of
s42S,o62 denomination with the budgets Of
81 charitable and welfare organizations as the numera
tors.
Without the Community Chest the common de-
nomnator would be the of 81 individual appeals
which would amount to approximately the the
Community Chest quota.
In the last analysis contribution to the Community
Chest is contribution to an organization or agency
you favor.

The man who lies to someone

demonstrating that his real value

You may as well get used TO the
idea that stmiulants are a necessity.
The body and mind are bound to
20 stale every now and again and
therefore require popping up.
The word "stimulants" has dis
agreeable associations.
We connect it up inevitably with
alcoholic beverages.
Coffee, tea, cocoa, tobacco are
the commonest ones.
And food, too, is a stimulant, ii
we want to include in the term all
things that revitalize.
There are persons who boast OF
never taking any Of the ordinary
stimulants, such as tea, coffee, or
alcohol, yet who eat daily large
quantities Of chocolates and bon
bons or who put several heaping tea
spoonfuls Of sugar on their break
last cereals.
Sugar is, Of course, one OF the
most important stimulants. 1t o1i-
dies readily in the body and pro-
duces warmth and energy just like
alcohol.
In fact, many persons notice a
sense of renewed v.sor after eating
candy.
Mountain climbers and persons
who 90 on long hikes often provide
themselves with sufficient quantity
OF sweets.
When individuals have been &C.
customed to take one or more al
coholic drinks da:iy, and then quit
absolutely, they invariably have a
pronounced craving for sugars in
all forms.
In cutting down smoking II helps
TO eat lot OF candy.

Few Stimulants Are Necessary to Life.

sion that / recommend all KINDS oil
stimulants.
Far from It. There are shmu-
lants and stimulants.
Some stimulate only and stop
there, as it were. Others not only
stimulate but produce deleterious
effects on body organs as well.
Candy belongs in the former class.
One can get Indigestion from too
much, but that's about the worst
that can happen,
But with alcohol it's a different
story. Alcohol in regular small
amounts, or in large quantities,
sooner or later does definite harm
to the organic structure OF the kid
neys, liver, heart and general circu-
latory system.
Aside from body stimulants, we
require mental stimulants ms well.
We get sluggish and "thick-head-
ed" and we need something to acti-
vate us.
A mclodrama or a swiftly-moyins
detective story will often give the
required results.
Stirring marching times, or dance
music, accomplishes the same.
The important thing is to recos-
nize that you need temporary stimu-
lation and to select the stimulant
that will not have n secondary and
insidious harmful effect.
And again, don't oycrdo stimula-
ton.
A continually repeated stimulus,
no matter how beneficial in small
doses or INDUCED in once and a
while, soon ceases TO be a stimulant
at all.
Recognize that you need stimu-
lants but choose them wisely!

In little town the writer once
saw a barber shampooing a man
without a hair on his head.
During the process the man kept
laughing and saying: "You are the
biggest liar I ever heard Of :"
Afterwards the barber explained
thus:
when I finished shaving him l
asked, Shampoo, sir?' He said,
Yes, il you think need it. / said,
4 think you do and shampooed
him. / would have been a fool to
have said no. wouldn't II?
A friend recently told me his ex-
perience with another barber in a
larger city.
He asked him il he could give
hime a close shave that would last
from that morning until the next
evening.
II would like to say yes" said
the barber, "but you can't go
against nature, so ! will have to
tell you the truth. 1t can't be dohs. "
There" said my friend, sis an
honest man. He lost money by tell
ing me the truth, but / have never
forgotten it. / 20 a mile out of my
way since I've moved just to give
him my trade. The other day he
showed me an offer he had. 1t was
. to take charge of a big shop near
New York City"
Last summer ! visited the little
town again, and the barber who had
shnmpooed the man who was as
bald as an egg was still in the same
dingy little shop. still thinking that
he would be fool to lose few
dimes by telling the truth.

can think Of no practice so
silly. and possibly harmful, as the
medication habit. Some folks never
go to bed till they have gargled the
throat, put oil up the nose. swabbed
out the ears with an antiseptic,
squirted drops into the eyes, taken a
cathartic, creased the face and
brushed the teeth.
The wonder to me is they are not
deaf, blind and otherwise diseased,
not from natural causes. but from
the liberties they have taken with
their precious bodies. When peo-
pie live right all these foolish prac-
tees are unnecessary. More than
this, no matter how they live. most
of these habits are damaging.
Don't 20 away now and say l am
opposed to brushing the teeth. That
would not be the truth. Nobody
should go TO bed until the teeth
have been thoroughly clesnsed. The
eating habits of civilization cannot
be changed in a generation. Until
they do become more simple-per-
haps ! should say, more primitive
il will be necessary to use the tooth
brush and dental floss.
The lower animals eat rough.
fibrous food. The very chewing Of
it cleans and polishes the teeth. But
the denatured and refined foods Of
the modern table give the teeth lit

particular care must be used to keep

Procrastination is rather a long
word for a short idea. 1t means
putting off. We determine to do
something that will benefit us. In
stead of doing it. however, We put
it off. Sometimes we never do it
at all.
There is a rather comical aspect
