so YOU'VE DISCOVERED PEANUTS ARE
 FOOD?

We talk vitamins at dinner, roll somersaults, take our iodin ration weekly and even have peanuts served in various dishes, writes Mrs. M. R.
 What do sou mean, even have peanuts for dinner?
 The ideal dinner. I think, should include peanuts in one form or an- other, chopped peanuts in the sal- ad, blanched peanuts in the hors d'oeuvres, peanut butter to spread on cracker, toast or bread, peanut meal or flour in the dressing for roast fowl, peanut brittle or stick candy as dessert for young per- sons who work or play hard. collection of recipes for making var collection of recipes for making var ious dishes with peanuts, but don't know where, unless perchance the bureau of home economics. Ag- riculture Department, Washington, D. c. has some such pamphlet for free distribution.
 Tn food value peanuts compare very favorably with bread or meat. Peanuts yield 2500 calories per pound, while bread yields just half and meat averages about one-third as many calories to the pound.
 In the following table the aver age composition of these three sta- pie foods is shown:
 Peanuts - refuse 9 per cent (shellso, water 9 per cent; Protein 25 pc rcent; Fat 38 per cent; Carbo- hydrate "A per cent; Mineral 2 per cent.
 Bread-refuse no waste; Water 35 per cent; Protein g per cent Fat 1.3 per cent; Protein 19 per cent; Fat per cent; Carbohydrate none; Mineral 1 per cent.
 McLester, in his book Nutrition and Diet" (Saunders) quotes Johns and Finks: We have found that peanut flour is an efficient and pa- latable supplement to wheat flour. " He also quotes Eddy and Eckman; {; comparing peanut protein with meat protein as a supplement for the pro- tein of wheat: "The peanut flour proved slightly superior to the meat as growth producer and marked ly superior for promoting ,reproduc- tion."
 There is a quaint popular notion that peanuts are difficult to digest. Due to the fat in them they may remain in the stomach longer than bread, but there is no doubt about their digestibility if they are well masticated or broken up and eat- en along with other foods. A small handful of peanuts indeed makes an excellent emergency lunch to carry in your pocket and eat when it is long time between meals and you feel let down.
 So-called peanut butter, made of roasted peanuts finely ground, is an excellent sustaining, strengthening, warming, building food for young sters or others who like and need it. It is all right to give children peanut butter as a spread for bread if they prefer it, provided they get fresh raw, certified or vitamin D milk or cream daily-to supply the vitamin D which peanut butter lacks and real butter contains.
 Peanuts are an excellent source of

AS I have said, there are wide differences in digestion between in- dividuals. One person may digest substances which are impossible for others.
 You can learn a great deal about Sour digestion simply by watching the way in which you react to dif- ferent food substances. You should consider diet not as the taking of Q single food substance, but as the sum of all the materials that you put into the stomach in period of 24 hours, and then in periods of Heeks.

NICE INAUGURATED AMID
POMP;; THOUSANDS CHEER
Governor Richie Deserts Capt.
tai AS Ceremony Is Completed
Top Hats Shine In Rain
ASKS LARGE RELIEF SUM

Ushered into office with all the
pomp the state could muster, Harry
W. Nice moved into the executive
mansion last evening-the Governor
of Maryland.
Sharing the cheers with him yester-
day in an inaugural ceremony
dampened but not dimmed by misty
rain was Albert C. Richie, the man
who left Annapolis a private citizen
after Is years as the Governor of this
state. 1t was the first time since 1919
that Richie had heard another man
counsel a legislature, heard crowd
cheer a Maryland governor other than
himself, and it was the first time in a
score of years than an inauguration
day crowd had applauded Republi-
can governor.
Top Hats Shine In Rain
From the moment Governor elect
Nice and Governor Richie strobe
from the Mansion, top hats glistening
more than usual due to the rain,
until Governor Nice raised his right
arm to take the oath of office, the
State Capitol was filled with cheers,
applause, whistling and band music.
The silence which dropped in the Sen
ate chamber during the administra-
ton of the oath only gave impetus to
the noise which broke out at 1901
p. m. as Marylanders cheered the new
Governor.
Nice's voice was steady as he took
the oath but his hand shook noticeably
as he signed the written oath in the
textbook. Missing from his button
hole was the white flower he had worn
on the way from the mansion-it
dropped out during the excitement
and could not be found Immediately.
The cheering that broke loose i'm
mediately after administration of the
oath was so great that President
Lansdale G. Sasscer of the Senate
snapped the handle of his gavel while
pounding for order.

at Sykesville, was in charge of the
Mental clinic last week and in the

Sidelights on Explosion

Part of one cylinder was all that
remained of the motor. The other five
along with spark plugs, wires and
sections of bolts were demolished.
A son of Mr.. and Mrs. P. Hinkle,
who lives near the scene, saw a piece
of the machine fall $50 yards away in
a woods on the opposite side of the
highway where he was batting a game
trap.
Members of the Trickett family
stated he evidently had premonition
of impending tragedy, as he talked
with his children about what they
should do if he happened to die, a
short time before the accident oc-
Cured.
The explosion was heard by several
people in Oakland who wondered at
the time but did not associate the
blast with the tragedy until later.
The car was comparatively new and
in good working order. Authorities
say it is impossible for the explosion
to have been caused by gases accumu-
lating within the automobile engine
itself.
1t is contended that if dynamite
was placed in the car Friday night,
the murderer intended it to explode
that same night. Cold weather, how
ever, prevented that.
And should anyone be arrested and
charged with the crime, the question
naturally arises, where would the trial
take place-in West Virginia or in
Maryland? The crime would have
been planned in Maryland, with ex-
pectation that it be consummated in
Maryland. But the actual explosion
occurred in West Virginia.
Trickett is said to have spoken a
few words to motorist as he writhed
in pain on the ground where his
children had dragged him from the
car, but he evidently was never really
conscious or knew what happened.
The force of the explosion drove
sidewise and backward on the motor,
large portion of the broken pieces
striking the driver and his companion
seated on the front seat of the car.
Hundreds of people, learning of the
accident, visited the scene Sunday af-
ternoon and evening.
What was left of the wreck was
hauled into Evans Garage, Terra
Alta, about five o'clock Sunday even
ing, where it will be examined by ex-
perts.

Children Not Seriously Hurt
Trickett's two children, William, II,
and Margaret, IS, escaped serious in
juries. They were riding in the rear
seat of the automobile and the pieces
of flying metal following the explosion
which demolished the motor and other
portions of the machine failed to reach
them.
The explosion occurred as the car
was being driven westward and at a
point about one mile east of the Sam
itarium, and although West Virginia
police were unable Immediately to
locate any witnesses, attendants at
the hospital said the shock of the eX-
plosion was sufficient to shake the
beds and other furniture in the build
ings. The explosion was also heard by
several people in Oakland. The car
rolled about a hundred yards down the
hill after the explosion took place.
Children Pull Others From Wreck
The two children in some manner
got out of the car and then dragged
Mrs. Davis and their father from the
blazing machine before passing mo-
florists arrived on the scene. Mrs.
Davis clothing and hair were on fire
but the flames were extinguished by
the children, who then turned to extri-
cate their father.
Trickett's legs were practically torn
from his body and he had a hole in
his chest and neck where parts of the
exploded motor penetrated. Mrs.
Davis had both legs and one arm
broken, and her body was badly multi
ated by the force of the explosion.
The explosion was so great that it
tore the engine of the car to bits and
small fragments of the motor were
blown more than hundred yards.
Little remained of the machine, and
this was practically destroyed by the
fire which followed.
The force of the conclusion leads
officers to believe that high explo-
sive, probably dynamite, was planted
in the machine by an enemy of the
dead man. The thought that it might
have been nitro-glycerine placed in
the gas tank or radiator was aban-
doned, and investigation along the
theory of the use of dynamite is be-
ing continued.
According to H. Foster Hartman,
Kingwood, coroner of Preston county,
West Va, no formal statement will be
Forthcoming from the coroner's jury
until a thorough investigation has
been made, and the inquest will not be
held until after this investigation has
been completed and the evidence pro-
duced before that body.
Both Garrett county and Preston
county officers and State police of
both commonwealth are working on
the case, and it is stated that an eX-
pert will examine the remaining por-
tions of the automobile to determine
if possible if any high explosive was
used. The expert is expected to come
