One of the main purposes of cook
ery-one often lost sight of in these
days of extreme diets--is to add
to the zest and enjoyment of foods.
And there is no other ingredient so,
useful in making other healthful

of fresh fruits, vegetables and
meats tasteful and delicious.
We spoke above of extreme diets.
More than that, they are dangerous
to health. Eminent medical authori-
ties are alarmed at the semi-starva-
ton reducing diets. Extreme reduc-
ing removes the protecting fat that
nature intends everybody should
have. 1t tends to destroy the protec-

causes permanent injuries to the
most delicate organs and tissues.

CALIFORNIA; Primaries.

While California Republicans were
voting yesterday Overwhelmingly. in
deed unanimously. for Herbert Hoover.
es the States favorite son. for the presl-
Dental nomination, the Democrats Of
the State gave their Endorsement 10
Gov Smith Of New York by a heavy
ma jority. There was no Golden Stale
Democrat in the field. Gov. Smith s
name was opposed by Senators Reed
Of Missouri and Walsh Of Montana. and
both we're defeated in the primary by
large margins. The California deleRa-
tion at Houston viii vote for Smith.
This primary has been regarded as
tegt Of strength. II either Reed or
walsh should gain the delegation the
Smith boom would be checked. But the
result shows that the field" against
the Democratic favorite for the nom
ination was not only divided but that
altogether its strength was not as great
o. that Of Smith.
Comparison Of the total votes cast By
the TWO parties Is significant. There Is
evidently little chance Of California, If
Hoover is nominated, failing 10 cast
ia electoral vote for him In November.
Ano yet the Hoover vote yesterday was
not the full Republican strength IN the
STATE. for the reason that there was no
contest in the Republican primary and
consequently no particular reason for a
heavy registration Of preferences.
The casting Of this vote for Hoover
IN California has no especial sig
n.hesnee as regards the nomination
prospect. for the States delegation was
conceded 70 him. Nevertheless the in-
pYeesive sire Of the ballot In an uneon-
feste6 primary is calculated 70 hearten
his supporters ard 10 give them an sd-
6itionzl selling argument" in thes'
campaign work during the comin2
month
