certainly gives the pilot who intends
a long flight or cross-country flight
a better chance of reaching his des-
tination, it was said.

long duration flight. the pilot is par
ticularly interested in: (a) Direction
and velocity of the wind at various
attitudes. (b> Height and thickness
of clouds. (c) Danger of low clouds

Burch Says He Feels 'Encour'
aged Following Confer
ence With HutsOn

WASHINGTON, Feb. N.-iR-
Representative Burch (D-Va.)
said today, after conferences with
J. B. Hutson, assistant agricultural
adjustment administrator, that ne
"felt encouraged" that steps would
be taken soon to clear some gov
ernment-owned tobacco to foreign
markets.
The Virginian said details OF
plans under consideration were not
sufficiently developed to discuss
but that the subject was beng
given earnest considerat on.
The British, principal buyers OF
domestic dark fire cured tobacco,
imposed an embargo early in the
war on all American tobacco IN
order to conserve foreign ex-
change, and since that time the
Imperial Tobacco company a n d
other large British takers have
taken options on purchases made
on their behalf by the Commodity
Credit corporation.
Options on purchases from the
1899 crop expire shortly and those
on purchases from the 1910 crop
a year hence. l

THE FOOD YOU EAT

EnE rVVD xVO EAA
 The following facts may seem selfsevident to some, but thousand queries daily indicate that they are news to the majority:
 1. While the iiutritive value of any food pertains to the supply of the body'B requirements Of mineral elements, vitasning, building and re- pair or growth material (nitroger), as well as fuel for the bodys heat. ing and power plant, the "fattering" or mon -fattening" character of any item of food depends mainly on the number of caiories yielded by the amount of the food taken.
 2. The number of calories yielded by any item of food depends on the proportion Of the three classes of food material composing the food--that is, protein (nitrogenous r1ateriaD, carbohydrate Sugars or starches) and fat. Protein, such as white of egg, lean meat, curd of cheese or milk, and the protein com. ponent of wheat, beans, peas, etc., yields 4 calories per gram, or aps proxifnately l26 calories per ounce. Carbohydrate, that iS, any form of sugar or starch, such as the sugar in ripe fruit, cane sugar, beet sugar, maple sugar, honey, milk sugar, or the starch iil flour, potato, wheat, beans, urripe fruit, yields calorieS per gram, the same az protein. Fat, whether animal or vegetable fat or oil, or fish oil, yields Q calories per gram, or approximately 280 caloricS per ounce.
 3. Any kind of fish liver oil or shark liver oil would yield approxi- nately 36 caloricB to the teaspoon ful leverage teaspoonful equivalent to 4 gramD If ell of 1t is digested. A glass of skimmed milk would yield 85 calories. Four tablespoonfuis of whole fresh sweet milk would yield 40 calories.
 4. Lemon juice, which 50 many uninforTned or iniSinformed laymen imagine is reducing" yields 12 calorie1 to the ounce, orange juice 16, milk 20, grapejuice %. So lemon juice is merely less flouriBhing or less "fattening" than the other items mentioned for comparison.
 s. Too many people Dtili seem to think "dietirg" means only reStric. ton of ddet for the purpose of re- ducing. Today physiciafls prescribe the dict az part of the treatment for many different conditions.
 6. The total of caloricS yielded by the food consumed and not the kind Of food the individual chooses, determines whether a particular regimen or dict Is fattefiing, a maintenance regimen (that is. suit. able 10 maintain normal weight) or one which will increase weight.
 '. And 50, darn t, girls, we get right back to the d---- carbohy- drates tho delcctable carbohy- drateg, I mean 10 say. Tn the next talk on weight control we'll con- sider why go many nice girls cant take the d--- carbohydratcg and can't let cni alone.

 Sun -tanned beauties who want to achieve glamor- girl, exotic effects for summer evenings of dancing url- der the stars are letting eye makeup dtothe job for them.
 They are using hunters green and midnight blue mascara as well as the traditional shades, black and brown. They are doing many, many tricks with different color conlbiila- tionS-black mascara on laSheS and brown on eyebrows, or the other way around. And they are changing eye shadow as well as mascara.
 It's new to combine mahogany eye shadow, a new shade, with the regular eye shadow which matches the color of the iris of your eyes. The everyday shade-aqua, light blue, gray-blue, spring green, olive green or violet--goeS along the lower edge of the eyelid, close to the eyes. Above this line of color, ma hogany eye shadow is blended, and 1t harmonizes beautifully with dark sliiltan shades.
 BRUSH IS BETTER
 THAN FINGERS
 Mahogany eye shadow also IS uge- full on eyebrows which show Q light streak where hairs have been re- moved. Rub bit of 1t into the light streak and see how quickly you no longer can sec where suntan ends and light, tweezed streak be- gins.
 For subtle blending of eye shadow, use a little brush instead of finger tips. If eyelidS have e tendency to be dry, you may want to cover them with q light Aim of oil be- fore brushing on eye shadow.
 Do not, however, get any cream or oil on eyelashes before apply- ing mascara. The color will run al lover your face unless lashes are quite dry and free from oil before mascara IS put on.
 For lines around eyes as well as dry-looking eyelidis, there are sev- eral special creams and oils on the market. Get one and use 1t regular ly. Next to constant loss of sleep and lack of rest, dryneas is the prev alent cause of premature lines and wrinkles around the eyes.
