Mrs. Doe felt very, very hurt.
John completely forgot their tenth anniversary!
She had worn her new dress.
And had carefully made-up, with just
The right shade Of powder and ipstick
But he merely remarked that she looked
A little tired around the eyes.
After good cry. she took stock Of herself -
Her eyelashes hod become wispy
And her brows were pxsslsi
No wonder she looked tired and washed-out.
That very day she read about tMAYBELLINE

WILSON'S VIEWS

Predicting wars and rumors'' in the flu
ture. Representative Carl Vinson, of Geor-
gia, Chairman of the Naval Affairs Com
mittee. says that nothing contributes to war
more than the failure of one government 80
be prepared for war
Mr.. Vinson, therefore, suggests that
the United States keep its fleet intact and
refrain from any postwar commitments
which might lead to the serappiRg of useful
naval vessels.
The Georgian sees no prospect of radi-
cal ehaRges.i1 naval construction. He is OF
the opinion. that the nation cannot depend
entirely on battleships. or submarines. or air
craft carriers. insisting that we must have

TRY A GRASS DIET

A group of conscientious DIRECTORS re-
Gently conducted an interesting experiment
at Camp Magnolia, Ark. where they test
ed the theory that man can get adequate
nOurishment out of grass
1t seems that a nutrition chemist has
advanced the theory that dehydrated grass
tips offer an inexpensive and complete sub
stitute for fruits and vegetables i'm the hu-
man diet.
Eighty men started the experiment.
which has been called off. after three
months because many of the men had been
transferred TO other projects and enthu-
siasm for the experiment had noticeably
dwinded.
One group ate three ounces of grass a
day..a second group tried one ounce and a
third group ate no grass. Nerve tests were
inconclusive. All three groVps showed in
creased chest capacities but the non-grass
group gained weight while the grass-eaters
lost weight

his idea about the benefit of grass diet
and the experience of cows seems to sup-
gest it, but, so far as we are concerned. we
are willing to let the experiment end.

Britain with one blow"
Here is the record of japanese broad

March z, 1912: THE United States fleet
is already nonresident"
May IL, 1912, after the Coral sea bat
tie: THE Pacific fleet is annihilated: AM
erica IS reduced to a fourth rate naval
power
Aug 8, 1912. after the first battle of the
Solomons: Boosted of the wholesale de
struction of the American fleet and that
the Anglo-American force had been ''reduc-
ed TO that of third-rate naval power"
Oct. 20. 1912, while heavy fighting
was going on in the Solomons: Again the
japanese navy had proven its great super
iority over the American navy, which must
now be considered second rate power"
