“An army marche u n its stomach,”
is an ancient militaiy proverb.
Modern nutritionists agree, but
think of more soldiers on the march.
Food also is part of good stategy at
home in peace times, they declare.
The right food and enough of it, for
every man, woman, and child builds
strength for the preent and future.
To quote Dr. Hazel K. Stiebeling,
food economist in the Bureau of Home
Econimocs of the United States De.
partment of Agriculture, “Every one
of us in choosing our daily food,
every homemaker planning 'meals for
her family, can play a definite part
in national defense.

“By eating the foods needed for
good nutrition we can help to make
America strong, ready for whatever
lies ahead.
“A third of America’s families are
below the safety line in nutrition,”
Doctor Stiebeling states. “This is
one of the hard facts that we must
face and do somerthing about. This
comes not entirely from lack of mon
ey. It is true that millions of per
eons do not have enough money to
buy a good diet. But millions more
who spend enough, do not buy the
right food values.
Those of us who live on farms have
a cow and chickens to produce milk
and eggs—.two important “protective”
foods that take a good slice out of
the food budget if you have to buy.
Your garden is another step towards
good nutrition.
To make the most of the food val
ues, serve fresh fruit for breakfast,
and also as a time-saving dessert.
Serve raw vegetables in salads, or
cut them in narrow strips to make a
crunchy relish. When you cook veg
etables, remember that short cooking
in a small amount of water cuts
down the loss of vitamins and min
erals.
“America is seriously diet cq>v.
scious, wants to abolish rickets, pell
agra, and other diseases that come
from faulty nutrition. But the Amer
ican idea of diet is more than just
to protect from disease. Americans
want to be sure that the food they eat
helps toward abounding good health.”

MEN OF MILITARY AGE MAY
CONTINUE TO BUY HOMES
WASHINGTON, D.C., Oct. 5.—Men
of military age may continue to buy,
build of modernize homes of their
own under the Federal Housing Ad
ministration’s program, and lending
institutions may continue to advance
money for this purpose, just as they
did before passage of the Selective
Draft Act, Administrator Stewart
McDonald announced today.
“There will be no discrimination
by the FHA against men of military
age,” Mr. McIXmald said, “and there
should be none by the institutions
lending FHA-insured funds.”
The FHA policy was explained by
Mr. McDonald at the annual con
vention of the American Bankers
Association at Atlantic City. Tele
grams to the same effect were sent
to the United States Savings and
Loan League, the Mortgage Bankers
Association of An.erica, the Invest
ment Bankers Association, and the
National Association of Mutual Sav
ings Banks.
Mr. McDonald said: “Inquiries from
many members of your association
indicate they will be interested in a
statement of Federal Housing Ad
ministration’s policy concerning in
sured loans to citizens entering the
military service.
“Legislation has recently been en
acted by Congress to protect the in
terests of those called into military
service. Needless to say the Federal
Housing Administration is in complete
accord with the objectives of such
legislation and will follow an admin
istrative policy which will preserve
the rights of lending institutions un
der their insurance contracts and at
the same time enable them to extend
to those who enter military service
the protection to which they are right
ly entitled.

PROGRESSIVE DINNER HONORS
COLLEGE PRESBYTERIAN YOUTH |
One of the most unusual and de
lightful social events ever held in
the city by the younger set was the
progressive dinner laat Thursday
evening given by the Young People’s
League of Aveleigh Presbyterian
church in honor of Newberry college
Presbyterian students.
The group gathered at the church
at 6:30 in the evening and after
drawing partners went in cars to
Mrs. Hugh B. Senn’s home on Har
per street for the first course of the
dinner. The guests were invited into
the dining room where a red and
white color motif was carried out. A
bowl of spider lilies centered the
table. Tomato juice cocktails with
crackers were served. The red and
white cocktail napkins further em
phasized the colors.
The string of cars carrying the
Presbyterian youths then trailed a-
cross the city to the Armfield home,
Gildercrest, for the second course.
Red zinnias decorated the front of
the home thrown ensuite for the
occasion. Served buffet style in the
dining room was a congealed fruit
salad with saltines.
For the main course the group stop
ped at Mrs. Leon Nichols’ home on
Main street where Mrs. Nichols, as
sisted by Mrs. Warren Abrams, Mrs.
William Hunter, and Miss Mary Mc
Clure, invited callers in and placed
them at two large tables where
olates had been arranged containing
baked spiced ham, creamed potatoes,
and English peas. Also served were
hot rolls and iced tea. The Nichols
home was cleverly decorated in a Hal
loween motif. In the wide hall and
dining room, com stalks were piled
in the comers. Moving ghosts in
white occupied darkened spots. On
the walls, mirrors, and tables were
cut-out of witches and cats. Burning
numpkin candles decorated the tab
les covered in orange and black pa
pers while orange and black stream
ers crossed the ceiling and orange
covers dimmed the lights. Orange
candles were used on the front porch
and throughout the house and a
completely black “very -much-alive”
cat added to the errien^ss of the sit
uation by constantly roaming through
the rooms during the dinner. At each
place were attractive HaPoween nap
kins and favors of cats and ghosts
made of pipe stems with painted black
faces.
From the Nichols the crowd went
to the Edgar Hart home on Cren
shaw street and was there served
deviPs food cake topped with white
icing and blocked vanilla ice cream.
The Hart home was beautiful for the
occasion in its decorations of red roses
and other early autumn flowers.
The progressive dinner ended at
the church where Mrs. F. D. Mower
and Miss Fannie Mae Carwile served
coffee and ritz crackers. Proir to
the last course, the group enjoyed a
number of games conducted by the
Rev. C. A. Oalcote, pastor of the
hostess church. Other adults at the
function included Mrs. Calcote and
Mrs H. B. Senn, adult adviser of the
Presbyterian Young People’s League.

TRIED 7 YEARS TO RESTORE
LIFE TO CORPSE
Key West, Fla., Oct. 7.—An aged
unemployed X-ray technician related
to police today that he was driven
by hopeless love to keep the corpse
of a young matron in his bedroom for
seven years while trying to restore
her life.
The man, Karl Tamzlei Van Gosel,
70, was charged with removing a
body from its grave without permis
sion.
He was arrested yesterday at his
home—part of a dirty, ramshackle
warehouse — where the life-like
body of the young woman lay in the
bed, reconstructed and preserved in
wax.
“I tried many experiments to re
store her to life,” Van Cosel told
Deputy Sheriff Ray Elwood. “ still
hope if I live long enough to bring
her back.”
When he first removed the body
of 'the woman from its crypt more
than seven years ago, Van Cosel
said he slipped it secretly into the
Key West Marine hospital, where he
had been employed as an X-ray tech
nician, and kept it there a week
while he used available chemicals to
restore decomposed portions.
Then, hiding the corpse in an
old airplane he had purchased, he
had it carted to his makeshift home
on the outskirts of this island com
munity near the waterfront.
Police reopened the crypt in which
the young woman had been buried
and found it empty. A medical exam
iner said at least part of a human
body remained in the now largely
wax image that remained.
Van Cosel, a native German with
degrees from Leipzig university, told
his story in a calm, well-educated
voice, his English somewhat broken.
Although looking illkempt when ar
rested, he made an impressive figure
after a change of clothing Tall and
erect, he sported a well-trimmed van
dyke beard.
He described how he hoped to
keep the outer tissues sculptured to
its original likeness with beeswax and
then reactive the inner cells through
X-ray treatments.
MRS MEEK HOSTESS

tained her friends last Wednesday and

tiful club house of the Newberry
Country club made a charming set
ting with its floral decorations of dah
lias, roses, and other autumn flowers.

was presented to Mrs. Richard Baker,
second to Mrs. W. O. Miller, floating
prize to Mrs. Marion Wicker, bingo
