THE VOICE OF
Broad way
BY Louis SObOl-
Concerning Love!

Because must. 1 love you, though
our hands
May never touch and you not
know. my name.
But l have seen you-sO the mat
ter stands,
And if we never meet, will be
the same.
So close we stood once, could
smell the sweet
Scent of the tweeds you wore,
and was aware
OF nothing else along the crowded
street
Then you were gOne-and my
heart cried: UNFAIR
To pass so near my nOstrilS
breathe your breath,
And keen awareness stabS into
the blood,
And know that / shall live and go
to death
With never more than blessing
where you stOOd!"
Oh that the rusty mills Of laggard
gods
Would rise to making evens out
Of odds!

fat, which usually disappears
quickly on a strict diet. When a
weeks dieting fails to show any
results, the hungry reducer is
ready to believe her fat is natural
Failure to lose during the first
week is no sign you cannot reduce;
it is merely evidence that water
storage takes place as the fat is
lost.
Science has proved beyond all
doubt that the displacement of fat
by water frequently retards regis
tration of lowered weight. The ex-
tent to which water storage may
become a factor in weight loss is
shown by these examples:
DR.. E. F. Dubois, eminent
authority on metabolism, says
that due to replacement of lost
fat by water, a normal person
may even gain weight while on a
reducing diet. He cited the case
of a patient whose weight remained
unchanged, although according to
a calculated energy output he ac-
tually lost seven and one-half
pounds of fat. The loss in fat
was balanced by an equal gain in
water.
Newburgh, of the University of
Michigan, has conducted numerous
experiments proving conclusively
that water retention is a common
factor in reducing. A young
woman on a supervised diet
showed absolutely no loss for a
period of two weeks, although a
comparison of calorie intake with
energy output revealed that she
had burned six pounds of body fat.
During the next two weeks, how
ever, on the same diet, she lost
q total of nine pounds, only three
and a half of which could be
attributed to energy expenditure.
The other five and one-half
pounds had been previously lost,
but water retention had delayed
its registration on the scales.
If you have been honest about
counting calories for the last week
and still have not lost weight, You
are probably storing water. Such
a failure to lose is only temporary.
Continue to restrict your diet and
you will wake up one morning
to find yourself several pounds
simmer.
Water drinking has nothing to
do with water storage, and you
could store water even if you were
not drinking quite enough.
Cheer up! During the next two
weeks you may lose as much
weight as you should have lost
from the beginning of your pro
gram. You can get slim.

You may lose rapidly the first week

of a continued low calorie diet.
Also, it is possible to lose in meas

Spending Money

workings of the Townsend plan were explained last night at g at the home of R. c Snyder on Ledgeside avenue by Charles T. Tryon, "Citizen Max imus" of the Townsend National Recovery group in Connecticut. He argued that paying eight mil- lion persons $200 month would at once step up industrial produc- tion. Tn addition, he said, three million people over 50 would have jobs which they would give up under the Townsend plan, thereby taking care of three million un- employed.
 The meeting opened with salute to the flag and concluded with an appeal to Waterburians to join the local club. Last nights meet ing was for the purpose of launch- ing . campaign for membership in the local branch of the Town send organization.
 MT. Tryon stated that the Townsend recovery plan does not desire to create class feeling. His explanation of the plan was to yhow the distinction between the merely rich man and the financial promoters. The latter, he charged, ,re the enemies of the people.
