there s danger of monotony.

they can make some two dozen kinds of cake.

is and how easily it makes five kinds of cake.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 3. (A. P.)
LuKlHlutlon already In In preparation
to Klvo effect to tho proposal ol' the
prnsluonl n ulr board ror tlio creation
of u burunu of elvll aeronautics In the
department 'of commerce to promote
commercial aviation, along with its
recommended expansion of military
and naval aviation.
Senator lilnKham, republican, of
Connecticut, a member of the board,
who joined In the unanimous report
of its nine members, said today he
would introduce a bill giving the gov
ernment wider latitude In nidin-s civil
aviation than any legislation yet pro
posed. A companion bill will be in
troduce In the house by Chairman
Parker of the commerce committee.
At this time, however, it is nbt con
templated to include In the aviation
provision for an additional assistant
secretary In the department to head
the biirAan, as recommended by the
board, along with its proposal for an
other asslstnnt socretary also In both
the war and navy department to do
Yote themselves primarily to aviation. I
Creation of these new offices in the
three departments formed the central
recommendation of the board in Its
program for progressive development
of both military and civilian, aviation
in the United States.
n addition to functioning In their
own departments, it would be the duty
of the assistant secretaries- "jointly to
co-ordinate so far as may be practic
able" the aviation activities of the
three departments.
Seeing no need for drastic change
In the present organization of army
and navy aviation, the board emphat
ically opposed establishment of a de
partment of nutlona! defense or
unified air service. Until of these
proiiosals were endorsed by Colonel
William Mitchell in his public criti
cism of tile war and navy department
administration of aviation, which was
a forerunner of President Coolidge's
appointment of the board to make an
exhaustive study of tile needs of
American aviation.

HOW OUTDOOR MEN
TREAT MOSCLE-STBAiH
Sprains, bruises, rheumatism .
also yield to this treatment
Outdoor men who do hard muscular
work, who undergo exposure and risk
of accident every day, know how nec
essary it is to give prompt attention
to muscle-strain, bruises, sprains and
other injuries.
A member of a survey party, sent
out by the government of British Co
lumbia to do sub-division work three
hundred miles from civilization writes:
"Tho chief of our party with rare
foresight brought along as a part of
our first aid supply a bottle of Sloan's
Liniment. Anil through weeks of ex-
Ensure and hardship wc found it our
est help for sprains, bruises, stiff
muscles and rheumatism."
Sloan's gives real relief because it
doesn't just deaden the pain. It helpa
your body to throw oil the cause.
Just a little Sloan's patted on light
ly nnd a henling tide of fresh new
blood is sent right to the place that
hurts. The aching and stillness are
bellied right away.

WASHINGTON, pec Armed with
a mass of Htatlstics and scientific
data, the army chemical warfare
Hcrvice haa launched a campaign to
nlay a ghost that came back with tho
army from Franco.
War has boon doclared against the
haunting anectro that llngcra in the
minds of thouaanda of those who
got a whiff of gas "over there," that
some day, because of lasting Injury
done by gaa to thoir lung tissues,
they will fall victim to the dread
write plague tuberculosis.
This spectre is a .pure figment of
fancy, said Major Oonoral Amos
Fries, chief of. the chemical warfare
service. ' Exhaustive scientific in
vestigation during and since the
war, General Fries maintains and
he marshalled casualty figures and
the verdict of British, French "and
American doctors to sustain his as
sertion has failed to disclose, any
case whatever of evil after effects
of gassing.
Gassed men, he declared, either
died or got well; there was and Is
no middle ground; no army of malm
ed and- crippled sufferers such as
bullet and bayonet and shell left in
their wake. .
General Fries admitted the task
he and. the regular reserve officers
of tho chemical service have under
taken Is a titanic job. He did not
attempt to deny that the overwhelm
ing verdict' of pubflc ' opinions is
against his settled Judgment that gas
Is the most humane and at the same
time the most effective weapon of
war yet devised by man.
"It is a big job to convince 110,'
000.000 people, nearly all of whdm
think otherwise," General Fries said,
"but this is what we are trying to
do."
In the judgment of the chemical
officers, fear of the after effects of
gas In the minds of veterans is the
most difficult obstacle to overcome
la changing the views of these mil
lions of people on the general ques
tion of using gas In war. Almost
everybody, Oenerul Fries pointed out,
has ta.ke dwith veterans who sin
cerely felt that they had been for
ever Impaired physically by reason
of a touch of gas.
On the possibility that gassing in
duces subsequent tuberculosis, the
war casualty reports of the Burgeon
general aro illuminating. They show
that 73 cases of tuberculoids occurred
in 1D18 among tho 70,652 men In
thes army who Jiad beon gassed, tho
rnte per 1000 being 2.45. The an
nual rate for troops In Europe that
year, other than tho gassed men,
was 3.50 and In the following year
4.30. ! ;
COUNCIL-BLUFFS
HAS COSILY FIRE
FIREMEN IN PERIL
COUNCIL BLUFFS, iJwa, Dec. 3.
(A. P.) A disastrous firo, struck
tho business section of Council Bluffs
early today, causing a property dam
age estimated at moro than il.ooo,
000 In loss to buildings and several
hundred thousands of dollars In loss
to stock in stores.
- Tho firo started in the basement of
tho Continental Furniture company
when a boiler exploded. J. McManU
gal, night watchman nt tho building
was badly burned about tho head and
body before ho escaped from the
burning building. Eighty guests nt
the Grand hotel wore safe, but forced
to flee In scant attire when : the
flames enveloped and later destroyed
tho hotel. Their personal property
was lost.
Eight fire companies from Omaha
and Council Bluffs battled the flames
and for a time It appeared as If
the fire would spread throughout tho
entire downtown district.
Several Omaha firemen Just missed
burial by bricks from a large wall
which fell, while others wore en
dangered at times by flying embers.
At 7 ft. m. tho outlook appeared
almost hopeless, as If the flames
were hopelessly out of control. Show
ers of burning embers wero carried
several blocks nnd many house
holders, stood guard over their roofs,
extinguishing them as they felt.
