SOFT DRINKS ADD
NEW ENERGY FAST

The quick pickup noticed by
many people after enjoying a soft
drink is not imaginary. The body
actually is revivified because soft
drinks supply new energy which is
absorbed into the human system
within very few minutes.
The energy furnished by car
donated beverages comes from the
half-ounce or more of sugar con-
tanned in every bottle. 1t is this
sugar, together with the fruit juices
often present. that causes the
beverages to be classed as foods
by the Federal government.
The sugar content in soft drinks
usually is present as invert sugar,
or dextrose, which is quickly as
simulated and thus enables the body
to start benefiting almost imme-
diately from this source of energy.
Even in extreme cases, the helpful
benefits of the beverages become
fully effective in less than 80 minu-
ties.
That is one reason why, even
though the beverages often must be
transported for long distances,
most army camps maintain large
supply of soft drinks. Soldiers, like
other individuals doing hard and
nerve -straining work, need refresh
ment and new energy after strenu-
GUS training.

Naugatuck, Aug. 24-The borough
auditors, Knust, Everett g. Cambria
of Hartford, have reported that al
though the borough appropriations
budget had $6,78960 surplus in the
past fiscal year, three departments
and this condition is poor financial
practice" and probably is in con-
flict with statutes relating to expen-
ditures by public officers.
The auditors said actual revenue
exceeded estimates by $3,917.40,
which, coupled with the net balance,
resulted in a surplus increase of
$1C,716 from budgetary operations.
This is the actual operations surplus.
The report lists net expenses for
the past fiscal year at $568,e83, 40
The total budget was $575, 482. Gross
expenses were 1923, 85921 and credits
ar..ounted to $55,175.81.
The three departments with Sub
stantial Sver expenditures" referred
to were: Educatio $13,576.48 de-
ficit; health and sanitation, $2,063.-
81; general administration, $2,O62.-

The auditors also questioned the
right of the board of education "or
any other board or official" to take
any action increasing expenditures
over and above the approved budget
without securing prior approval at
a meeting of the freemen.
In January, 1912, the board of ed
ucation granted 10 per cent in
crease to teachers despite the fact
that no provision for this was made
in the school department budget. 1t
is not known whether the auditors
refer to this in questioning the
boards right to take action increas-
ing expenditures. At the time school
foficials maintained state statutes
gave them such powers.
The auditors probably refer to an
over eXpenditure of $13,576.48 in the
school department budget of the
1942,43 fiscal year. The department
budget was the highest in the his
