HOW TO "REDUCE"
REDUCING DIETS
The Appetite Will Demand
Less Food If Sugar Is
Part of the Diet

Too many reducing diets are
lacking in satisfying qualities. Ac.
cording to nationally known food
scientist. every reducing diet ought
to contain some sugar for the "well-
tilled'' feeling it produces.
Such a use Of sugar in the diet
means that one can eat the mini
mum Of essential foods and not 20
away from the table hungry. AS
far as sugar being fattening, medi-
cal science points out that sugar
has no more fattening value than
other carbohydrates-and far less
than fats. The stout people of the
world are, by no means, always big
sugar eaters. 1t is the amount of
food in general that produces fat
not sugar alone.
An example Of good Producing"
meal that will satisfy the appetite
is a generous green salad and q
sweet dessert. A consideration of
this menu will be Of value in plan.
ming other meals. The truth of the
statement, "A bit of sweet makes
the meal complete" will be appar-
ent very quickly.
Sugar as a favor for vegetables,
stewed and fresh fruits, also in
creases their satisfying qualities
and makes the meal enjoyable.
There is no need to be unhappy
when reducing. Eat less food and
enjoy it more. The Sugar Institute.

NAVY CONSIDERS
SCRAPP|NG BIC
D|R|G|BLE

/, LAKEHURST, N. j., March 8.
A survey which may result in the
scrapping Of the Navy dirigible
Los Angeles is going on at the
naval air station here.
This was learned when group
OF six naval officers, headed by
Rear Admiral S. e. w. Kittelle,
president of the Navy Depart
ment Board of Inspection and
Survey, arrived to make the in
spection, which is expected to
last until sometime next week.
Lieut.. Comdr. H. v. Wiley, cap
tain Of the airship, declared the
ship was in perfect condition and
he believed it would be in service
for some years to come.
No Defect Found
The Los Angeles has been sub
jected to searching inspections by
the officers and crew at regular
intervals. No structural defect
has been found that would make
the present official inspection
necessary from a safety view.

The airShip is now undergoing
her annual overhauling.
The Los Angeles was built

ZR-3 in Friedrichshafen, Ger
many, although she has been
flying only about six years.
Since coming to this country
In october, 1924, the Los Angeles
has been subjected to numerous
changes. Duraluminum parts
that had corroded or showed
signs of strain have been re,
placed with new members. New
gas cells have been installed and
other improvements have kept
the ship in first class flying con-
dition.
Crossed Atlantic
The Los Angeles has made
numerous epoch-making flights.
Among them are a transatlantic
crossing, a transcontinental trip
and several flights to the tropics.
All were made without a single
accident of consequence.
While it is not at all likely
that the Los Angeles will be
grounded" Immediately, the
presence of the survey board is
said to indicate that the time
is. not far distant when the great
airship will be declared obsolete
and diSmantled to make room for
the two new super-dirigibleS now
being built for the Navy. :

In well-padded leather chair sat
the Boss, looking fragile, remote and
eternally smiling. Bettington took a
chair, which gave him a full view of
the others. There were three of them
before.
MetZger, The chief engineer, was a
swarthy man OF middle stature, whose
age was not more than thirty-five.
There were many knife wounds on his
face. he had bold, dark eyes, and for
all his disfigurements was handsome
in an insolent fashion. This was the

Sam moved uneasily. He was o.

him. SO had dignitaries of the law
