Humanitarianism Is an unchang-

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

What comment will DR.. Brady
make on the report that DR.. Flor
ken, Of Frankfort, Germany, makes
his patients get up and walk about
within twenty-four hours after abb
dominal operations, and gets rapid
recoveries? =. %. P0
Answer-Sounds sound to me.
Both surgical and obstetrical pa
tients LING abed should carry on
regular daily exercises under the in
struction of the physician. Only
reason why most patients are kept
In bed weeks after ordinary abb
dominal operations Is because the
old timers thought IT necessary.

1t hard to sit through meetings

stomach. He has read that this is
due to a kind of spasm of the py-

To cover his nervousness In meet

Radiant Living
OUTWARD
BOUND
By Rev. @. M. Griffeth
Pastor Calvary M. E. Church
Sudlersville, Md.

Always have I been fascinated
by her charming beauty and grace
full lines, but never so much as
when looking up from her deck at
the full spread of her winfield can
vas. There is no other experience
just like that of standing aft at
the wheel, drenched with spray,
outward bound across the heaving
waters.
With the twang of the sea air in
my lungs and the music of whist
ropes, swapping canvas, and
creaking blocks, in my ears, I
stand again spellbound at the wheel
and watch her long nose as it dips
into the on-rushing sea and then
rises high above the line of the dis
tant horizon.
God pity the man who is shut up
in his little Office, a prisoner of dull
routine! There he sits day by day
chained to his desk, his eyes glued
to his task, a slavei Oh that he
too might know the lure and the
charm of the open SEAL
Often when so incarcerated by
enslaving routine have 1 leaned
back from the desk and shutting
my eyes, have aagin stood at the
wheel and rode the heaving swell,
outward bound.
Thank God, for the Imagination
that affords escape for the jaded
mind
What if you are a prisoner at a
desk or at a bench; catch the spirit
of being again Outward Bound"
Get new interest. Take up a
new work, a new study, new in
vestment. Strike out for some
worthwhile accomplishment
Then each morning, as you jump
from your bed and are slipping
into your clothes, there is new
glow upon your face, a new zest in
your step, a new command in your
voice, a new aspiration in your
heart, for today you are again
Outward Boundn'

MOTORISTS. CHANGE OIL
X. Weir, Jr., of Sun Oil Company,
Gives Information About IT

n. weir, dT., OF sun O1l Company,
Gives Information About 1t
Here's tip 1 wish you would
give to every motorists you can
reach" says Mr.. r. Wier, Jr., dis
trict manager for the Sun Oil Com
pany. It's this" he continued,
"any time you change the oil in
your car, be sure you have been
driving for at least half an hour.
This warns up the oil, makes it
flow more smoothly, and, as a re-
suit, far more crankcase sludge
and CRIME are drained out of hot
motor than will come out of a cold
engine. This subject of an easy
flowing oil, is one which should be
given careful consideration by
every motorists at this time of the
year. Some oils, when chilled, jel-
ly into a sticky mass which puts
a drag on the starter, delays quick
starting, and causes dangerous
wear by not providing instant lu-
brication. To meet this condition
we have introduced the famous
Sunoco wv Oils. These oils remain
liquid and free-flowing at tempera-
lures far below zero and thus per-
NIT quick, dependable starting and
eliminate all risk of unnecessary
wear by providing instant lubrica-
ton. To prove the easy starting
qualities of Sunoco 2O-W Motor Oil,
we recently froze Americas eleven
leading makes of cars to below
zero in a giant refrigerator, then,
without any warming up, started
each car. They averaged four-fifths
of a second and proved that Sum
oco 2O-W Motor Oil does remain
fluid. In another test to prove the
of Sunoco DOW Oil, Mr..
Louis Chevrolet, resigner of the or
iginal Chevrolet car, drove over
five thousand miles on less than
four quarts of Sunoco DOW Oil.
Precautions were taken against oil
leakage, and at the end of the run
the motor was taken down. Micro
meter measurements showed prac-
tically no bearing wear and there
was no hard carbon:-proving that
Sunoco 20-W Oil is both durable
and pure"

know the teacher doesn't want
them to. After all, pupils must
have something to do while they

YES" you all say, "but it does
not look nice to see a person chew
ing gum"
I know that, but you must ad-
nit that there is some good in it.
There are some kinds of gum that
whiten the teeth and keep the
mouth healthy. Nearly everyone
must have read that chewing gum
gives the chewer a nicely shaped
mouth.
Teachers, beg of you, let us

Sweet corn is thought to have
been cultivated In the United States
in the first half of the Nineteenth
century. 1t is apparently an offshoot
of field corn, whose accidental sweet
grains the Indians did not trouble
to propagate. Only the white man
noticed the delicate difference and
grew sweet corn for his own use,
leaving the field corn for animals.

HOW to Change
Your Bonus
Address
Rx THE BONUS EDITOR

Questions from veterans and
their relatives dealing with every
conceivable phase of the baby
bond" payments in exchange for
adjusted service certificates, con-
tinue to pour into the office of the
Washington Times.
Answers are given daily to any
person who writes to the Bonus
Editor. Those requesting in
formation are cautioned, however,
to be as explicit as possible.
Among today's queries are the
following:
Question: On my bonus applica-
ton gave my New York city ad.
dress, expecting to be there when
the bonds were delivered. AS I
will not return to New York for
two months, can I arrange to have
the bonds delivered to me at my
present address? w. S. M, Jr0.
Answer: Secure Form 1709-a
yellow slip similar to the baby
bond application blank, from the
Veterans Administration, Vermont
Avenue and H Streets Northwest.
On this form you can list change
of address.
Question: I gave my address
originally as general delivery"
Not until later did 1 find out that
no bonds will be delivered to such
an address. Then.I went down to
the Veterans Bureau and filled
out form to change the address,
but I have not had any acknowl-
edgment of the change. Will re-
ceive my bonds all right? q. C. j..
Answer: Yes; at the second adj
dress you gave on Form 1709.
Question: 1 am the mother Of a
soldier who died a year ago with
out asking for his bonus. Can I
obtain it? &C. H. r..
Answer: If your son was eligible
for the bonus, you may also be
eligible provided there are no liv-
ing relatives who have precedence
over your claim. Under the law,
a veterans widow has first claim;
followed by his children, who
share alike. Third in line is his
mother, and last, his father.

Is, Post Office Department au-
thorities explain, for Treasury
checks to be handed to those vet
Grams who determine to convert
their bonds into money imme-
diately upon their receipt.
Once the cash begins to flow,
on June II, however, it is def
nitely established a fair share
will find its way to automobile
row." Many veterans wish to re-
place old cars; many want to own
their first car, and hundreds will
have their cars repaired or i'm
proved by buying batteries, tires
and other necessities.
Government Agencies
The figures on the probable ex-
penditures by motoring veterans
here have been developed by
Government Statisticians from a
survey conducted among 42,500
ex-service men by the American
Legion, The preferences ex-
pressed by the veterans in this
survey, when projected to the
16 million dollars to be distributed
in the District, are the source for
the figures on the automobile ex-
penditure.
For new passenger cars, local
veterans are expected to pay a
total of $873, 800; for trucks, $113.-
900; for tires, $43, Gao: and for
batteries, $4,160.

est amount of money ever dis
