FOOD VS.. MEDICINE
WHICH WILL WIN

In the great battle that seems to
be going on between medicine and
food, as cures for many ills, the in
dications are that food will win. For
example,:
Spinach and lettuce are displacing
the old iron tonic; the Jerusalem ar
tichoke is used as a substitute for
potatoes in the feeding of diabetes;
it is almost impossible to buy calves
liver because hospitals are corner
ing the market to obtain it for their
anemic patients.
But by far the most prevalent all
ment all over the country is cOnsti-
patton and Delaware is no exception,
says Mrs. Mckinley, State Home
Demonstration Agent. In a recent
survey made in this state it was
found that 6O-7O% of the members of
the families recorded were suffering
from this trouble.
Accordingly a study of this sub
ject is being made in all the Home
Demonstration Clubs of the state
this month which includes the nee
essary health habits, especially those
pertaining to the proper diet for
constipation.
After discussion each person pres
ent is presented with leafet on the
subject compiled by Mrs. Mckinley.
Any person in the state may have
one of these free upon request from
the University of Delaware at New
ark, Delaware.

Milford. This new and modern
semi-bungalow is being constructed
in the dupont section amidst the
large pines with a southerly view
across Lake Gerar. The location is
within 100 feet of the beautiful cot
tages of Irenee dupont and Walter
Laird, of Wilmington.
Richard c. Dole, of Salisbury, is
spending several days in Rehoboth
supervising the construction of his
new building which is being erected
on the boardwalk between Rehoboth
and Baltimore avenues. He has an
nounced that the building will be a
two-story structure, costing $4,000
and consisting of frame and stucco
finish. The main floor will be util-
lied for ten bowling alleys with a
Dunard parIOr and small lunch room
in the rear. The second story will
be made into several apartments.
Thomas Pachides, of this resort,
will have charge of the manage
ment of this new building and also
the candy store on the corner of
Surf and RehObOth avenues. A store
similar to the candy store will be-
built on~the front adjoining the new
building. In front of this new i'm
provement will be a remodeled
boardwalk with a width of twenty
eight feet instead of the usual six
teen foot walk which extends to the
Hotel Henlopen,
Carlton Bryan, of Wilmington, has
been spending several days here in
speeding the remodeling of his hotel
property on Rehoboth avenue. The
entire new brick construction of the
front part of this hostelry will add
sixteen rooms to the structure.

SAY BUSINESS MEN
CAUSE TRAFFIC CONGESTION

Facts so far developed in traffic
study being made by the Engineer
ing Department of the Motorists As
ISOLATION indicate that a solution of
the parking problem in the various
communities of the state lies in the
hands of local business men.
More business will be done by
the stores of a town or city where
parking facilities are available to
those who come by automobile to do
their shopping" said William S.
Canning, Engineering Director of
the Association. eff the merchants
and their employees use the space
in front of stores for their own cars,
it is plain to be seen that would-be
shoppers are put to inconvenience if
not actually forced to abandon their
quest.
"In an average business day from
six to fifteen customers would be ac-
commodated in space now largely
taken up by the cars of business
people. 1t is obvious that it would
be to the best interest of the bust
ness men to park hi scar Off the
main street thus allowing the space
in front of his establishment to be

GENERAL MOTORS


- IS the pOAAcy Oh
General Motors to maintain continuous Improve
nuent, in every one of its car divisions, with no
interruption in production.
This means that you enjoy the benefits of
engineering developments PrOmPtly-just
as soon as they have been thoroughly tested on
the 1245-acre Proving Ground.
1t means that you can nO'O order the new
Chevrolet, Pontiac, OIdsmObiIe, Oakland, Buick,
LaSaIle, Cadillac, or CMC Truck, and receive
immediate delivery.
Behind this policy of continuous Improvement
is an organization SO widespread and resource
full that it can make and sell quality autOmO-
biles more economically than any automobile
manufacturer in the world.
In the north and south it logs and mills it's
lumber. In the east it makes its ball bearings
and radiators. In the middle west it produces It's
plate glass. Its plants are busy in 80 important
American cities.
From almost 5000 suPpIiers, its materials
are obtained. Its sales and service take place
through $4,000 dealers. More than 275,OOO
families look directly to General Motors for
their Observation-Disclosures m1l1On ana q naE
men, women, and children in every community
In the land.
Meaning much to SO many, General Motors
has felt supreme obligation to look ahead.
Are there methods by which General Motors
cars can be better built to better serve?
Are there new ideas which can increase the
utility and pleasure and safety of motoring?
Are there new materials which can add to
owner satisfaction?
Such are the questions that all General
Motors engineers have always asked. The answers
have made it possible, year after year, to offer
an increasing measure of beauty in design, mod
ern performance, riding comfort and distinct
style. Thus in every price class, from Cadillac to
Chevrolet, purchasers are constantly benefting
from the General Motors policy of progress.
