The srtuill-town lad who thiiiks thflfc life would, be just fine if he cqujd only -get to the flight . lights of Broadway ought tq, have a little talk with' Captain Amandpr 6,, Hayes,', yho h'as.ust i'etired, after spending a number of years in charge, of the West 47th street police station in flew .York City.' I i In that; job; Captain Hayes was more or less the overseer of Broadway. The bright-lights section was his bailiwick, tjnd everything that happened in the busiest and most fam ous play snot in America was his business: and wheiUhe reared he remarked' that "nothing much ever happened. me." , ..Ills'. jpj),',in. fact, had been rather, dull,,aid fill lhites 'con sidered Captain Hayes was rather glad to get out of its monotonous, routine. , ,,. . .. , ... ,;. ., "Nothing much happens to any policeman, when yrju think it,tQver," he , added. ' "They just have tough hours and 'do .what they're told." , ., , Afd. right there, it would seem, there is an ironic little commentary on the nature of romance and adventure. , , . "Nothing piuch ever happened to me" is the complaint of every restless lad who is tied down by a prosaic job which lie wdulo! like to swap for a bit of reaj adventure, The lad" who follows a plow or drives a bakery wagon or files invoices in a freight office or Hammers ft typewriter, nine hours a day generally has the notion that romance is something he could get hold of very riiceiy if only he could slip into the yiglit kind,, pJob.. t ... t , , But romance finer adventure are, after' all, the 'commonest things in the world. The only trouble is that most, of , us fail to.' recognize tliem when we , see them. Captain Hayes, suljervising Broadway's bright lights for, year upon year, finds h'S job boring unci monotonous; nothing ever happen ed to him, or to any other cop, lie says, and he's glad to be out of it. '' M And so it goes. An especially daring airmail pilot who pioneered in the early days of night flying over the AJ leghenies, when that particular job was about the riskiest and most adventuresome thing aviation had to offer, told an jntei-viewer that the main trouble with it was that it was hard for him to keep awake on those "monotonous"' night flights over the mountains. Like Captain Hayes and most other men who have faced real adventure, he was not in the least impressed by the glamour of his calling;, i Adventure is a thing we all long for. Recognizing it wheti yp find it seems to be something else again. UNION WHEAT GROWERS TO , FORM GROUP i (Continued From Page One) matnlng to bo done.

LABORATORY TESTS CHECK EFFICACY OF KELLOGS'S ALL-BRAN Show Why This Delicious Cereal Overcomes Common Constipation There ore scientific reasons for tho success of All-Bran in pre venting and relieving common con stipation. Laboratory investigations show that it supplies "bulk" to ex ercise tho intestines; and vitamin B to promote appetite, qnd help tone the intestinal tract, Theso two important food-elements aid regular habits, and help do away with the headaches, loss of appetite and energy, bo often the result of constipation, The "bulk" in All-Bran ts mild in action much like that of let tuce. Inside the body, it forms a soft mass, which gently clears the intestines of wastes. Isn't this pleasant "cereal way" far more healthful than using pills and drugs so often habit-forming! Just eat two tablcspoonfuls of Kellogg's daily enough for most types of constipation. If not re lieved this way, see your doctor. : Besides, All-Bran brings your body twice as much blood-building iron as an equal amount by weight of beef liver. Special cooking processes make All-Bran finer, softer, moro palat able. Equally tasty as a cereal, or used in cooking. Recipes on the rcd-and-green package. Sold by al grocers.
