Woman Tells of Reducing 100 Pounds

pounds overweight but who can't
seem TO get started with your
reducing.
l like to tell you quite casu-
ally about these big time re-
-dueers- They manage to make
calorie cutting sound almost
ridiculously simple.
One reducer took off the en-
tire 100 pounds in a year. That
is clipping off the pounds al
most too quickly. But she did
il under the doctors supervision,
which made IL safe for her. Her
letter tells the story.
Wore Size IS
ron the twentieth of this
month it will be a year since 1
was weighed on my doctors
scales. To my humiliation I
tipped the scales at $50 pounds.
I am only S feet 4 and I was
wearing a size as dress.
With plenty of determination
but not too much will power, I
started on my program of cor
receive eating and exercise. It
was an ordeal. I am not salts
fed yet and mean to keep right
on until / have accomplished
what / set out 10 do. But 1 am
now down to $50 pounds and I
wear a size 1S dress.
"As you can see, l have nearly
reached the 100 pounds-off mark.
/ am in much better health and,
needless to say. I am so very
much happier"
Deserves Credit
There Is woman who de-
serves real credit. Taking off
that much weight in such COM
paratively short time means hav-
ing an iron will. You couldn't
let down for a single meal.
If you have 40 pounds to lose,
you can coast along and lose it
in year. All you will have TO
do is be careful not to take an
excess amount of bread and but
ter, trim off all the fat from
meat, delete the gravy and may
onnaise. and avoid fried foods
and rich desserts.
Those are the restrictions.
You can't even call that dieting,
but you subtract enough calories
TO average three-fourths pound
of a week.

sistS of IS minutes of specific
exercise to remak$ your figure

ture Of the disaster cannot be
given because reports of COM
manders of American surface
and submarine units are only
fragmentary.
Reports Of pilots who have
bombed Jap naval and trans
port ships have to be checked
and rechecked. Admiral Will
liam F. Halsey, jr., is piecing to-
gether the reports of all con-
cerned before he sends the full
report Of the battle to Washing
ton.
From what is known, 1t is evi-
dent that Toxic has sacrificed,
In an attempt to recapture the
lost islands, not only q substan-
tial portion of its cruiser strength
but also at least one and a half
divisions of men.
The Japanese high command
Is reckless with human life. 1t
does not care how many thou
sands are being lost. Despite the
heavy casualties suffered so far
there still are between 10000 and
$4,000 men at the assembly points
at Rabaul and Truk.
Japs Used Old Battleships.
From available information,
1t appears that more Japanese
troops are being rushed to the
scene Of action from Mindanao
and the enemy's modern battle
ships, which have not yet been
in action, are believed to have
been ordered to the area. In the
last battle the Nipponese, like
ourselves, lacked airplane car
riers. But while it is safe to as
sumo that some of Americas
modern battleships have been
used by Admiral Halsey, the Jap
anese placed old battleships at
the head of their three lines.
1t is assumed that the Japs had
five old battleships in the fight.
They considered that type of war
ship sufncient for the protection
of their fast, modern cruisers and
transports.
The orthodox Jap strategists
did not imagine that half
dozen American cruisers under
the command of brilliant admirals
such as Daniel Callaghan and
Norman Scott would tear their
lines and ships to pieces. Theo-
retically 1t could not be done
the Americans did 1t.

vacancy from the 1st Ohio
district after the death OF
Speaker Nicholas Longworth.
Mr.. Hollister is 4 law partner
of Senator Robert Taft. During
the last presidential campaign he
was an adviser Of Wendell L.
Willkie, the Republican nominee,
and travelled with him for seven
weeks.
Mr.. Hollister, it is known here,
would accept the chairmanship-
for which he is not a candidate
provided it did not mean his
giving up his law practice. The
suggestion that he be selected for
chairman did not come from
Senator Taft, whose close friend
and partner he has been, but
from prominent Republicans out
side of Ohio.
While he would expect to give
a good deal Of hard work to the
Craftsmanship, he would be un-
able to come to Washington and
stay permanently at Republican
National Committee headquar-
tiers. This probably would neces-
state the appointment Of an ex-
ecutive assistant or director, to
be on the job constantly.
Might Avert Isolationism Fight.
The election of Mr.. Hollister
to the Craftsmanship, if it takes
place when the committee meets
December Z In st. Louis, would
seemingly avoid q row in the
committee over the isolationism
issue, which has been threatened.
Mr.. Hollister believes in inter-
national co-operation-both dur
ing and after the war. He does
not at this time agree, however,
that it is the job Of the United
States to run the entire world.
after the war ends.
During the First World War
Mr.. Hollister served overseas in
command of Battery B, 46th Ar
tillery, and later was in COM
mand of the Sd Battalion of that
regiment. From January to June,
1919. he was on detached service
with the American Relief Ad-
ministration under Herbert Hoo
yer, in Lithuanania and Poland.
He is SO years 'old.
The Republicans are seeking
to avoid, If possible, a bitter
controversy over the isolationism
issue when the committee meets. !
Representative Martin of Massa-
chusetts, Republican leader Of
the House, has announced he will
resign as chairman Of the Ma

When Mr.. Martin first an
nounced his intention Of resign

With all hope for executive clemency

day for the execution here Saturday
of Mrs. Annie Beatrice (Toni JOY
Henry, convicted of the Staying of a

Gov. Sam Jones said he had no
intention of interfering with the
electrocution of the slim, brunette

she fired the shots which killed
Joseph P Galloway as he knelt nude,
praying for his life in a frozen rice
field.
Mrs. Henry will be the first woman
in Louisiana to die in the State 5

murder. Mrs Ida Bonner Lebouef
was hanged in 1927. along with DR.
Thomas Dreher, for the murder OF
her husband.
Mrs. Henry yesterday received
news of the capture of her husband
at nearby Beaumont. Tex, in his
desperate 18th hour attempt to see
her before she dies, with disappoint-
ment tempered with relief that he
was>taken alive.
She told officers at the jail she
was afraid that had her husband

her he might have been killed.
