Here is a movie for the entire

The comedy feature of the bill
is Cracked Nuts with Bert
Wheeler, Robert Woolsey and that
funny Edna May Oliver.
Cracked Nuts" gives these three
great chance to be funny. The
comedy is clean and about two
thirds of the time the situations
seem to be new.
The fun starts when Wheeler buys
"a revolution" in a foreign country
so he can become king. Even be-
fore Bert spent his money, Woolsey
had become king by shooting better
dice than King Oliver.
I know the audience howled at
this one when I was present at the

MIX EN- UP.

mix EN- up" is the advice in refer
ence to foods, according to state
ment released by the Public Health
League Of Washington. Don't eat all
of any one food but scatter your
selection of edibles. Any variation
from normal diet should only be
prescribed by properly trained ply
sician after careful study of the
dietary requirements of the individual
seeking advice.
Vigorous protest against food fads
and faddests, and a strong statement
favoring well rounded diet for the
average. individual were voiced in a
resolution passed by the WashineGon
State Medical Association at special
meeting held January 10th.
Very few of the food fads being pro-
mulgated today can take the place of
the older staple foods-.good meats,
dairy products, green vegetables, fruits
and the better grades of bread pre-
pared from white flour. The allega-
ton that white bread, meat or any
other staple food, when employed in
mixed diet, is responsible for certain
grave illnesses, is not supported by
scientific facts, according to the reso-
luton, which states further:
1.-THE exaggerated claims for various
fad foods are entirely unwarranted by
scientific evidence or practical expert
ence, and the advertising and other
propaganda furthering their substitu-
tion for the older articles of diet
should be condemned.
The danger of nutritional deficien-
cies has been grossly exaggerated. No
one food is perfect food; but diet
consisting of dairy products especial
ly milk, leafy vegetables, fruits, meats,
and easily digested starches for heat
and energy, furnishes an excess of all
food factors necessary for proper
growth and nutrition and resistance to
disease"
We would save both health and
money by sticking to the ordinary,
staple foods and by stunning the pro-
fessional faddists

BILLS OF INTEREST TO CAR
OWNERS BEFORE LEGISLATURE

The So flat fee for automobile
licenses has been introduced In the
House. The bill carries an increased
two cents gallon gas tax to make
up the difference between the high
and the flat fee license revenues. A
second flat fee bill is In the senate
It calls for one cent gas increase.
Under the provisions Of the bill, all
cars will pay So. Trucks will pay an
addition of 90 cents per hundred
weight, and stage coaches So per seat.
A proposal to charge every automo-
bile owner of the state $40 to create
compulsory accident insurance fund
is sponsored before the Legislature by
State Senator Paul w. Houser. The
bill would create fund out of which
persons injured in automobile acci-
dents would be compensated.
At the rate to be charged, as sug-
gested by Houser. every person killed
in the state last year, could have car
ried $4,000 insurance policy and
every person injured could have been
paid SITS, leaving 100000 reserve
fund.
A bill making 1t a gross mis-
demeanor to carry or sell pistols is
to be considered by the session. Repre-
