Occupants of a tent pitched 1,000 yards from that of Conlon and Miss Kentle told police they had seen no repancy in the story of Mr. and Mrs. John de Wilde, friend: Conlon and his fiancee, and of the immigration service remained unreconciled. The de Wildes, who said they accompanied the slain cous ple to Tiajuana Sunday for an out- ing, insisted the party crossed the border in the middle of the afternoon. ‘The party divided, de Wilde said, aft- er the trip to Tiajuana. ‘The immigration service records place the time of crossing early Sun- day morning. Residents of Ensenada said Mr. and Mrs. de Wilde were ia Ensenada early Sunday afternoon. This Doctor, Too, Says Folks Should Eat What Is Good Winnipeg, Man., Aug. 28.—()—Diet, fm the opinion of Robert Hutchinson, of London, should be a matter of likes and dislikes. The diet faddist; he told the 98th annual meeting of the British Medi- cal association, is perhaps the com- monest and most malignant crank. “The scientific truth about all this diet business”, he said, “can be sum- med up as follows: eat moderately, taking ordinary mixed diet, and don’t worry about anything else—to take no thought for. what you shall eat or drink is wiser than to be always fuss- ing over it. Likes and dislikes, how- ever, should be listened to; they are nature’s indication of what probably agrees or disagrees.” Harking back to the “days of mud pies”, Dr. Hutchinson said children were probably healthier and happier then than the oft-weighed, pampered, dieted and psycho-analyzed infants of today. He laughed at calory-counters and vitamine victims, and held up as ideal the easy-going individual who “mere- Jy meanders to health.” He adjured humans to “leave raw vegetables, except salads, to herbi- verous animals and let the calories look after themselves. “IT often think it is a pity Moses ever laid down a sanitary code for the children of Israel, for it has im- pianted in them the seeds of pypoch- endriasis, which has flourished ever ince.” Cathro Returns to Bismarck for Visit F. W. Cathro, former examiner for the state guaranty fund commission and one-time manager of the Bank of North Dakota, was a visitor in Bismarck today. $ Since last fall, Mr. Cathro said, he has traveled 15,000 miles, having visited the eastern states, Florida and California during a motor tour. The cost of the trip, on which he was ac- companied by his wife, was 4.2 cents per mile for transportation. This, he said, included all operating expenses and repairs. From here Mr. Cathro will go to Calgary, Alta., to visit his brother.

D., Aug. 28—Nick Hertz narrowly escaped possible ser- fous iAjury while driving an auto east of Carrington recently. He met a car carrying a spotlight just as he ap- proached a bridge. When the cars met, the driver of the other car threw andr aa directly in Hertz eyes, ding him for an instant. Herts turned too near the bridge railing which caught on the rear fender. Little was left of the fender but no other damage was done. POWER CONSUMPTION DOUBLES IN DECADE Commission Reports That Mon- tana Leads All States in per Capita Electricity Use Washington, Aug. 28.—(7}—On the basis of the 1930 census, F. E. Bonner, executive secretary of the power com- mission, reported today that the per capita consumption of electric. power in the United States had more than doubled in the past decade. For the country as a whole the per capita use increased from 49: kilowatt hours in 1920 to 800 kilowatt hours in 1930. The northwest and Pacific coast states were the largest consum- ers in proportion to population. Montana, with a per capita use of 2823 kilowatt hours a year was shown far in the lead, with California. Washington, and Utah following with per capita uses of 1585, 1570 and 1549 kilowatt hours, respectively. New York and North Carolina with 1165 and 1048, respectively, led in the east. “In the western states with large per capita consumotion most of the energy is generated from water power sources which indicates the availabil- ity of low cost sources has been a large factor in promoting liberal use of power,” the report said. “Tt is of interest to note,” it con- tinued, “that while the Pacific and Rocky mountain regions have in- creased their per capitu use only about 50 per cent during the decade, We're Ready for LABOR DAY With Many Things You'll Need for a Pleasant ARGO STARCH, Corn or Gloss, 3 pkgs....... 23¢ IVORY SOAP, It Floats, 3 medium bars ..... 22c TWO STORES TO SERVE YOU TRADE AT YOUR NEAREST RED OWL STORE NO. 1 STORE NO. 2 302 Main Ave. 606 Broadway , . in nearly every otier section the per capita consumption has practically doubled.” The greater rate of increase in the other areas was ascribed largely to economies to overcome the disad- |.vantage of less favorable water power resources.
