SUTTL3 S DRUG STORE. Try Star Wants Ads Can You Imagine Eating All This, If You’re An Average Person? Washington.—The average Amer ican annually consumes 145 pounds of meat, nearly 30 pounds of break fast food, 214 quarts of milk, 177 pounds of wheat flour and 24 of corn meal, 3 3-4 pounds of maca roni, spaghetti and noodles, about 110 sticks of chewing gum, 14 pounds of lard, 10 pounds of cottonseed oil. 17 1-2 pounds of butter, 4 pounds of cheese, 2 1-2 or more gallons of Ice cream, 14 pounds of evaporated milk, 18 dozen eggs, 20 pounds of chickens, 3 1-2 pounds of strawber ries, 20 pounds of oranges, 5 1-2 pounds of grapefruit, 4 3-4 of lem ons, 22 of bananas, 68 apples, 16 of peaches, 6 of pears. 21 of grapes, 10 of canned fruits, half a watermelon, 5 1-2 cantaloupes, 6 2-3 heads of lettuce, 10 1-2 pounds of onions, 3 bushels of potatoes, more thud a pound of cauliflower, 4 1-2 pounds of celery, 11 1-2 of corn, 2 1-3 of carrots, 9 of dried beans, 2 of fresh beans, 4 of green peas, 2 of spinach, 18 of cabbage, 8 of tomatoes, 37 of sweet potatoes (those are all green vegetables), 28 pounds of canned vegetables, 2 1-4 pounds of canned salmon, 12 ounces of sardines, about 1 1-3 pounds of smoked, dried, salt ed and pickled fish, 6 1-2 pounds of peanuts, 1 1-3 pounds of walnuts, 12 pounds of coffee, leas than 1 pound of tea, 102 pounds of sugar and 12 pounds of candy. Plus many other things, of course, In smaller quantities. Popular Foods Change. Those figures represent what the foodstuffs division of the commerce department, after thorough research calls the apparent per capita con sumption of principal foodstuffs. It haa compared the amount of vari ous foods consumed about 30 years ago per capita with the amount In the period of 1922-27 and It finds that: Cereals (wheat, flour, rice, com meal, breakfast foods, etc.) have de creased hr per capita annual con sumption 120 pounds, from 350 to 230. The average person eats 145 pounds of meat, an Increase of 3 pounds, although It was up to 155 pounds in 1907 and down to 120 In 1917. Consumption of fats and oils in creased 10 pounds, from 34 to 44; Dairy products consumption, ex pressed in terms of milk. Increased from between 800 and 900 pounds to 1040. Fruit consumption increased from 189 pounds per person to 193. Com bread and com meal mush had a terrific decline in popularity, one Judges, because whereas the average American consumed 103 pounds of com meal in 188 he only ate 34 pounds a year from 1923 to 1927. Beef was the most popular meat in 1899. Now it’s pork. The average annual consumption of beer went down from 67.8 pounds to 61.4 and pork eating increased from 64.7 to 7Q.2. Mutton and lamb dropped from 6.8 to 3.3 and veal went up from 3.3 to 9. less Batter Used Now. Butter is about 1 pound per per son less popular than in 1899. Ice cream is eaten in about the same proportion as 10 years ago. Among canned fruits peaches arc most popular—each of us eats 3 can ned pounds of peaches a year and 2.9 of canned pineapple, which comes next. Per capita consumption of canned vegetables for 1923-37 In cluded tomatoes 7.4 pounds, baked beans 4.7, corn 4.3 peas 3.9 string beans 3.1 and less than a pound each for the others , Perhaps 2 1-3 loaves of bread a week is about the per capita con sumption for most city families, as a study in cities of Pennsylvania two years ago showed average per capita consumption of 2.53 loaves or 3.15 pounds. Consumption of potatoes is popu larly supposed to have decreased, but the foodstuffs division gives a per capita consumption of 3.12 bushels for 1899 and 3.11 bushels for 1927.

Is passing to the folks that pul the marcel wave on a paying basis. ...On the first of a three-day auc tion to dispose of the $330,000 ef fects of the late Madame C. J. Wal ker, negro washerwoman tvho In vented a hair-straightening tonic for her race and quit washing, $10,000 was netted—mostly from white so ciety women. A twelve-piece, hand-carved ma hogany bedroom suit brought $350, a Flemish oak billiard table, $225, ten high back arm chairs in the same wood $175, and luxurious Oriental rugs which Italian kings are said to have walk<% on from $10 to $100 Upwards of 1,500 bargain hunters and sight-seers thronged the man sion and grounds to view the Japan ese prayer tree and to hear the $25,00(1, 24-karat gold inlay organ. Few came to buy and most to gasp over the legendary treasures which had been closed to them In the owner's life, Madame Walker died In 1919, probably the wealthiest negro wom an in America. Her daughter re cently decreed that the furnishings, as well as the house, a show place at Irvington on the Hudson, should be sold at auction. HUEfflfflBE HI LEHIGH DEI I>»»n M. McConn of Lehigh university Agrees with Dr. Hen drik Willem Van Loon that "there are not more than half a dosen men In half a dozen uni versities” who could really in spire boys "to do something good and great and noble and foolish and unselfish.” “Alas. It is true,” replies Dean McConn, in the December “Rotar ian Magazine”. "Only a few college professors have In large measure the qualities of Socrates or Christ or Ableard. It Is equally true there are only a handful of such men in any one gneration.” And, he adds. If a college faculty were composed exclusively of such. It "would shortly be put out of bus iness by an enraged populace!” Colleges, Dean McConn admits, arc far from being as effective as they should be. but even so, he con tends they are doing a better job than many critics give them credit for. Even dull teachers help boys and girls by holding them to cer tain courses of study, supplying explanations and requiring them to recite. Always, there are a few pro fessors that the alumuus will fond ly recall who "certainly made one think.” | The collegian forgets much of what he has learned, and this is as It should be. believes Dean Mc Conn. “But If you begin to talk with him in almost any one of the general fields he has covered, you find he knows his way around in it.” Social life at college, too, has its value. A student acquires a meas ure of self-confidence. His youthful bumptiousness is rubbed off, and he learns how to co-operate and how to lead his fellows. "In these days when social quali ties of co-operation and leadership are of ever increasing importance in a more socialised world," com ments Dr. McConn, “I sometimes think tills result alqne is worth the cost of a college course,”’ nii»tTrftv»-iw<u^ These Hotels Offer Swerhr Aceeramodatlonb (or Voar Next Vlait to WASHINGTON, D.

Andre Maurois, famous French biographer, now in the United Stales, makes a pertinent observa tion on the foibles of tourists, in the December issue of the "Rotarlan Magazine,” “Americans,” he says, “consider that the Frenchman is ridiculous who attempts to pass Judgment on America after having viewed the slaughter-houses in Chicago and a motion-picture in New York. They are quite right, too. But the French are no less shocked by the Ameri can who would form an estimate of France after having seen a Paris musical revue.” The American, he adds, will see in France a “calmer life, in which the family plays a blgge.* part.” Whereas, the French visitor to the United States, who does his sight seeing understandingly, will find “the embodiment of a youthfulness, a vigorous curiosity, a generosity which will please him very much when he comes to know it well.” Busiimls ' OF MODERN CODRT A wave of dissatisfaction with the inefficiency of the courts Is sweep ing American business, and arbi tration as a method of settling dis putes Is growing In favor, declare* Harry Hibschman, well-known at-1 torney. in the December "Rotarlon Magazine.” '•Litigation at best is expensive," j he comments. "The cost is not meas ured in money only. There is the cost in time, in reputation, and in good-will. And thei) after settle ment, he who wins la apt to lose.” New York state Is leading in the movement to arbitrate commercial disputes by disinterested third parties. Other states have borrow ed New York’s law legalizing the system. Among the industries that have adopted arbitration are the movies, the American Zinc Insti tue, the American Fur Merchants' association, and the Rubber Asso ciation of America. Most of them make use of the machinery of the American Arbitration association. Blacksburg Paving To Be Started Soon Gaffney Ledger.

YES, YOU CAN MAKE COT TON OUT OF IRON New Orleans—Carleton Ellis of New York told the annual conven tion of the American institute of Chemical Engineers of a new Ger man process for making cotton from iron. Except for the color, which is blackish, he said, it looks and feels like cotton and wty burn about as easily as cotton.
