On November 3, 1912, we ex-
ercise our right of political
suffrage, a right by which we
hope to elect to public office,
to represent us, men and
women with courage and dig
nifty, especially during these
war times.
AS far as man to man, am
ong the white people, no issue
is involved in the gubernator-
ial fight other than now the
"outs" want to get in; but as
to the colored people, we are
at the moment confronted
with that traditional wrangIe
and controversy as to who. N
the past years, has done the
most for the colored, the DEM
ocrats or the Republicans.
In its scope this controversy
is not only local but national,
1t will always be so, too, until
the colored people get together,
and of their own choice, elect
leader with ability and cour-
age, one with an unselfish
fervid desire to serve his peo-
pie at all times, before cam
paigns and afterwards. Then
and not until then, will we re-
ceive from the Democrats and
the Republicans that to which
we are entitled.
This year, in this election, I
am casting my lot with the
Republican Party, the party
which, at least in the begin
ming, took a firm stand OH is
sues concerning our people,
and 1 hope my friends will do
likewise.
I have been encouraged to
do this through the selection

New Orleans
and Eeating

7 LEFT the hotel yesterday in
i a suit that At me perfectly,
and when / returned after din
ner in the evening it was touch
and 20 as to whether ] would be
able to peel that tiny suit off of
myself.
The major distinction OF New
Orleans dishes is that no matter
what you order you have 10 eat
for upwards of half an hour be-
fore you have eaten 10 the thing
you ordered.
For luncheon yesterday l or
dered brook trout.
At 1890 a monstrous platter
was set before me, and / began
eating away.
/ ate layer of oysters; then
a layer of sauce.
Then / unearthed a layer of
shrimp. and after that / came
upon a great deposit of mush-
rooms.
/ plowed on and on. and at
1855 ! came upon my first bite
OF trout.
1t was then that / startled my
fellow diners with a loud cry of
Excelsior"
The same thing happens when
you order chicken or steak or
anything else.
The story goes-a fine old
Creole lege n d-that a New
Orleans chef once was ridden
out of town on a ran for serving
a dish that could be recognized
for what il was at two PAGES.
EVEN the vegetables are part
~ of this masquerade.
You order eggplant and you'd
never know il was eggplant.
II is so much better than egg
plant has any right to be.
In New Orleans you can order
the vegetable you like the least
and wind up having a second
helping.
So help me, I've enjoyed car
rots in this town and / am one
of the foremost carrot haters in
this country.
Now for a wartime observa-
ton: When food rationing be-
comes really strict, and house,
wives run out of ideas as TO
how to make food palatable, il
would be wise for the govern
ment TO enlist the services Of
the New Orleans chefs and
have them go about the country
giving recipes to the gals.
I NEVER have eaten a single
Il in this town but am willing
to bet that a New Orleans chef
can take a single and make of
it superb dish.
And what they couldn't do
with things that really yield
themselves to cooking, such as
old sofa pillows, lamp shades,
sewing basket tops and ostrich
feather fans!
Enough of this, however.
/ haven't had a single thing to
eat in the last hour and ask
you IF you were in New
Orleans with me right now
wouldn't you say. Stop banging
at that typewriter and let's go
get something 10 eat?"

Better Health
BY DIR. Logan Clendening-

ELATULENCE, or gas in the
L stomach or bowel. is one Of
the commonest symptoms OF
which people with digestive dis
orders complain.
They are likely 10 attach
great Importance TO il, especially
if they feel a frequent urge to
get rid of the gas.
But to the doctor II means
very little, and he never regards
it as seriously as the patient
does.
OF the many misconceptions
held about gas and belching,
probably the foremost is that
the gas comes from the fer
mentation of food. This is not
the case.
All the gas in the stomach and
intestines is swallowed.
We all swallow some air with
our food.
We all swallow air when we
eat raised bread.
And some people uncon-
sciously are air swallowers.
THE stomach always needs
l. some air inside il in order 10
function properly.
Whenever one sees an X-ray
picture of the stomach. a gas
bubble is seen at the top.
Swallowed air stays in the
stomach and shortly comes into
equilibrium with the gases of the
venous blood.
Therefore, II is richer in car
bon dioxide and poorer in oxy-
gen than atmospheric air.
Another symptom of flatulence
is a feeling Of bloating and dis
tention.
This usually means nothing.
It is most often found in nerv-
Gus, representative patients.
THE lower bowel, or rectun,
i like the stomach, normally
is clean and empty and distended
with gas.
When a normal person eats
breakfast this gas bubble is
pressed upon and stimulates the
lower bowel 10 evacuation.
The habit of passing this gas
is one Of the commonest causes
of constipation.

being gaseous. but in question:
