STRONG ARMY-NAVY URGED BY GENERAL Lejenne IS Opposed to Total Disarmament Columbus, O., Oct. Maintenance of an efficient army and navy as against total disarmament were urged by Major Gen. John A. Lejuene, com- mander of the United States marine | corps, and Robert G. Woodside, com- mander-in-chief of the veterans of fore: wars, in addresses at the con- | vention of the American Red Cross last night. Hope for everlasting peace, however, was voiced by both these military men, who asserted no one hates war as much as those who have been through it “Service to humanity—service to those who need service. It not only helps those who are served but lifts us up. That is the basis of the Red Cross.” Such is the conception of the program of the crganization as summed up by John Barton Payne, newly appointed chairman of the eentral committee of the American Red Cross in his first appearance as the active head of the organization, National Commander John G. Emery, of the American Legion, said the Am- erican people owe 100 per cent obliga- tion to the service men. Extension of the benefits of voca- tional training to widows and children of those who died in the service and inducement of corporations to give employment to former service men in preference to “foreigners” was urged by Mr. Wocdside. He also favored adjusted compensation for all service men and unlimited aid to the disabled. Reunions of overseas and home base workers will feature today's ses- sions. Operations abroad will be out- lined by Dr. A. Ross Hill, vice-chair- man in charge of foreign operations at the afternoon session while Charles R. Crane, former ambassador to China, will tell of the value of Red Cross service to suffering = foreign peoples. 15 CREWS ON RIVER.

The foolish man who built his house on the sand He gave an example in folly which anybody can understand. It isn’t so easy, however, to sense the mistake of trying to build the body on foods which lack essential nourishment. Here, again, is a foundation of sand which gives ‘way when the test comes. Many a food that tastes good lacks honesty cf nourishment to equal it's taste. often are costly. Thus it tempts the appetite into mistakes that Grape-Nuts is a food which helps build bodily endurance for life’s stress and storm. The full nourishment of wheat and malted barley, together with the vital mineral salts so necessary to bone structure and red blood corpuscles, with phosphates for the brain, is retained in Grape-Nuts. The long baking process by which Grape-Nuts is made gives the food a natural sweetness and an unusual ease of digestibility and assimilation. Served with cream or milk, Grape-Nuts is fully nourishing, and whether eaten as a cereal at breakfast or lunch, or made into a pudding for dinner, Grape-Nuts has a particular delight for the appetite.
