Says one of the
healthiest men
i'm the world

FVEN perfect physical specimen
IL like Gene Tunney doesn't just
take health for granted. He has
worked hard, increasingly, to build
himself up and keep in condition.
Realizing the importance of regular
habits, he takes no chances.
He doesn't trust to exercise and diet
alone to keep his system functioning
perfectly. He makes absolutely sure
by taking Nujol regularly-whether
he is in active training or not.
Il started taking Nujol internally
seven years ago. The first month
Nujol brought remarkable changes
in my physical condition. My elimi-
nation became active and normal.
My appetite increased and desire
for intensive training was created.
Since that time | have taken Nulol
about five nights week. / have
regulated myself to the amount neces-
sary to keep my elimination normal.

excess | stop its use for a couple of
days, when renew my daily practice
OF taking swallow from the bottle
before retiring.
Il have found during my seven years
experience with Nujol that it is not
habit-forming, or in any way un-
pleasant or harmful"
Tunney is equally enthusiastic about
Nujol as an external rub. He had his
trainer use it on him regularly.
Il have found Nujol followed BY
alcohol, the best and most practical
kind of rundown. / adopted the
custom of using Nujol in this way

WATER TREATY
MUST Be FAIR,
.SERRANO Says
Head OF Mexican Sec
ton of Water Com
mission Tells En-
gineers OF Work

The objective Of the international
water commission is 70 establish a
basis for a treaty which will assure
equitable division Of the waters Of
the border streams and be absolutely
fair in all essentials to both Ameri-
can and Mexican interests. Gustavo
r. Serrano, head Of the Mexican sec
tion, informed the Valley engineers
at a dinner at the Stonewall Jackson
hotel In San Benito Monday night.
Forty Valley engineers were pres
ent to greet the international COM
mission. Frank Robertson, manager
Of the San Benito irrigation dis
trict. one of the pioneer engineers
of the lower border. acted as toast
master, and o. =. Van Berg Of Mer-
cedes greeted the commissioners on
behalf of the Valley engineers.
Speakers Of the evening included

ada, Amanda Santacruz, Rafael Nc
Gregor. members Of the Mexican Sec
tion; General Lansing III. Beach, w.
+. Anderson. members of the Ameri-
can section: and l.. M. Lawson, Of
I'll Paso. head or the American
boundary commission.
Mr.. Serrano spoke briefly Of the
irrigation projects in Mexico, stating
that the Don Martin project on the
Rio Salado would prove beneficial to
the irrigation interests Of the lower
Rio Grande, and that the Mexican
government is considering a similar
project on the San Juan. The head
of the Mexican section pointed out
that the major part Of the dis
charge from these streams into the
Rio Grande comes in the form OF
floods at Zines when there Is an
abundance of water in the latter
stream and very little being used for
irrigation. He said that impound-
ing of these flood waters would inn
prove flood conditions in the Rio
Grande, and that the surplus waters
from irrigation would equalize the
flow. providing greater volume of
water III the Rio Grande during those
months when irrigation in the Valley
is at its peak.

Charles Lindbergh must once more
emerge from private pursuits at his
nations caII-this time 70 receive
the symbol OF its homage.
On Wednesday-at noon-Presi-
dent Coolidge will present the young
Argonaut with the congressional
medal Of honor. the highest award
Of the United States, voted 70 him
by congress last December.
The presentation will take place
in the presence Of high army. navy
and marine officers, government Of
ficials. and possibly Mrs. Evangeline
L. L. Lindbergh, the pilots mother.
Perhaps few i'm the company will
recall that IL was just ten months
ago that the courageous youth hop
ped off alone from Roosevelt Field,
". ~, on the unmarked trail TO
Paris.
Winging eastward from the Pacific
coast, with only one stop, Lindhergh
suddenly emerged as a serious con-
tender for the transatlantic honors.
Commander Richard T.. Byrd and
Clarance ID. Chamberlin had been
waiting for days for favorable wea-
ther. Many thought the st. Louis
flier foolhardy. His plane had but
one motor, no radio. no navigator
and many dismissed lightly his
chances as n contender in the New
York-to-Paris air race for the $25,-
600 prize of Raymond Orteig.
Shortly after midnight May 20
came word that Lindbergh was pre-
pairing to 20. At 1880 a, m. he was
out Of bed. IL was raining at the
field. Lindbergh ordered the plane
fueled and saw that his weeks sup
ply of emergency rations was aboard.
Satisfied that all was In order, he
studied weather charts and played
aimlessly with a stray kitten. At
1880 a. IN. he donned his flying suit,
climbed into the cockpit Of the plane
he had named THE Spirit Of St.
Louis,v and began to warm up the
motor. Chamberlain and Byrd wished
him luck. A few minutes before 8
o'clock. his ship labored into the
muRry mir with les nose toward
Paris.

according 70 the Harlingen informa-
tion, that fumes from the exhaust
pipe collected beneath the covering
and killed both children. The eldest
was a boy OF two years.
The solution was offered after po-
lice Of both cities had worked for
hours. seeking some clue 10 the
identity OF the parents, who left
San Benito in the direction Of Rio
Hondo after learning that both chill
dren were dead.
A pulmoter of the Thompson NOR

One of the children was dead when
brought TO his office and when the
family returned 70 the car a short
