WALUE Of heaIth NAY not bel reck.

VALUE Of health may not be reck-
oned in dollars and cents Two
thousand years ago there was per-
haps some excuse for. the gastronome,
but today there is none The way to
health lies in a balanced diet Hip
pocrates, the father Of medicine,
figured along the same lines back $50
b. c. He expressed the belief that
the science of medicine had its be-
ginning in the efforts Of men and
women to find better and smoother
diets.
Diet in the home today is becom-
ing matter of premier considera
ton. Women are taking eognizance
of those important food elements
known as yitamines. They have
learned, also. the benefit to the hui
man body of such minerals rs IRON
calcium and phosphorus.
This knowledge has resulted in the
housewife planning her menus with an
eye open to dietary values, which Is
the big reason why milk has assumed
such a large place In the menu Of the
American family. Milk contains every
structural element for body building.
II Is an almost perfect food. Despite
the best refrigeration facilities, milk
will keep, sweet only short time.
Millions of American housewives have
solved this big problem by using evap-
GRATED milk, which is simply fresh
cows milk sterilizcd in cans to
achieve Sleeping qualities and with
sixty per cent of the water removed.
Evaporated milk is not the same as
condensed milk. although many per
sons confuse the two The condensed
product is n combination Of milk and
sugar cane in Il two-fifth cane sugar
and three-fifth milk proportion Evap-
Grated milk has nothing but water
taken from it and nothing at all added
Sugar is the preservative used in
manufacturing the condensed product.
while heat only Is the preservative
for eyaporated milk. For this reason

Vacant Lot Usually
More Than Eyesore

Every city has vacant lots. They
are part of the landscape, and lie
singly or In pairs or in triplets and
other numbers between houses. Va
cant lots were meant to have houses
built on them. Oftentimes instead,
they lie idle to grow up in weeds.
While they are growing up in weeds
they also are accommodating taxes and
interest which the owner has to pay.
He doesn't wish to sell the lot at a
loss and sometimes he doesn't wish to
hold it any longer In addition to
growing weeds. lot may be a con-
venient dumping ground for the neigh
bors. The absence Of lot would com
pei them to put their grass cuttings,
tin cans and shrubbery trimmings out
for the refuse men TO take away.
Sometimes, rather than carry ashes
to the street front or the alley to be
hauled away by the ashes collector,
people will dump them on vacant lot.
Then when building operations begin,
the ashes tin cans, broken bricks, old
furnace pipe, dead shrubbery, old
shoes, old rubbers, etc, must be hauled
away by the builder or turned under
to furnish further trouble for the
house buyer when he starts to dig a
garden or flower bed.

Ford Sees Coming Change

"The modern city has done its work
and y change is com1.s," Henry Ford
said, In recent interview. THE city
has taught us much, but the over
head expense of living In such places
is becoming UNDESIRABLE. The cost of
maintaining. interest on debts, Of
keeling up water supply, sewage and
sanitary systems the cost of traffic
control and OF policing great masses
OF people IS so great as to offset the
benefits on the city. Industrysof the
future will he organized on a big
scale, but competition will force it
to move to parts OF the country where
labor is steady and overhead costs
are low. Instead of making the man
come to the city, we will take the
work to him in the country"

Buried TolOn Hoodoo

At Daytona, Fla, group of town
boosters had big ceremony on the
beach and resolved thenceforth to de-
vote their every effort to promote the
welfare Of their town and country.
They decided never to neglect civic
responsibility, whether that of voting,
making true tax returns, supporting
the best man for the public job or Civ
ing whole-hearted encouragement to
the officials who are elected. In token
Of this they brought. out an effigy OF
the familiar American alibi of Let
George DO It," and after mauling the
figure all over the beach, buried 1t
in a grave most wide and deep. 1t
remains TO be seen how long this con-
version to better manner of civic
life will last. If it endures, other
communities could try the plan, to
their advantage.-Akron Beacon Jour

ELECTRIC POWER OFF ALL DAY
Yours truly,
w. A. STREET.

The Electric Power was off from
about a. m. this morning until 10
p. m. tonight This is the first it
has been off for any length of time.
Most all industries are now depend
ing on the power, and it was quite a
handicap to those not expecting so
long a shortage.
The gas company in all their many
years of service have never been off
more than an hour at a time, and
not more than two or three times at
that. In this respect the gas COM
pany has several points to their
credit.
Now, if the electric power COM
pany wa1t to give equal sekvice,
they too, will have to make some
improvements in their program.
Just why the power was off for
nearly twenty hours at one time
is not clearly understood, and in as
much as there is no local superin-
tendent here to whom the people can
appeal for information in such cases,
it makes it very inconvient and ex-
pensive to the patrons.

City Man Has to Cope
With Much Discomfort

The high cost of living in big city,
the noise, the smoke and other discom-
forts are largely responsible for the
phenomenal growth during the last ten
years of the suburban zones around
all large American cities. High land
values in the city and high taxes have
contributed toward making high rents
These factors are less important in the
suburbs. In the cities the police fire.
quently are unable to cope with crime
city resident cannot always feel safe
on the streets after dark or feel GER
tain Of the safety Of members OF his
family. In the suburbs he has little
cause for worry. IF the city man Is
dependent on street cars or elevated
cars for transportation between his
home and office he must either live
close to his place Of business or in
locality that may be undesirable or
spend an unnecessarily long time on
the cars. A suburban home Is miles
from the city may be closer In actual
time spent in travel than city apart
ment half of that distance from the
downtown area. Most cities have
grown faster than their intra-mural
transportation facilities; but the man
who drives to and from work In an
automobile is not much better off I'M
less he can afford chauffeur or can
get down to work and back home be-
fore the rush hour.
