Main Dial 3170 Health From Within We all desire health. But many times we do not desire it with such zeal as impels us to give up that which impedes health. Health is not an outside substance to be taken into the body. This seems to be a belief too strongly fastened upon the race consciousness. Health is a state or condition of existence, Health is not from the outside in, but from the inside out. This is the law of biologic being. The supply of proper materials and normal nerve function and cir culation are essentials. Struc tural distortion impedes normal nerve function and interferes with proper circulation to the vital organs. r,pl.Cota Compant. Fxanchlsed BotUeri Pepil-Cola .

(U.R) The FBI today arrested in Hol lywood Charles Lyons, Jr., 22, Azusa, Cal., a glib navy deserter who was wined and dined by club celebrities and military of ficers -on the pretense that he was a wounded marine hero who had been awarded the congres sional medal of honor and kissed by Mrs. Roosevelt. Nat. J. L. Pieper, FBI field agent, said Lyons was taken into custody at the home of Actor Dennis Morgan after agents read in a Hollywood column that Mor gan had taken Lyons home from the Hollywood Canteen as a house guest under the name of "Chuck O'Brien." AWOL Sine 1944 Pieper said Lyons has been AWOL from Camp Shoemaker, Pleasanton, Cal., since Oct. 17, 1944, and was wanted for . Il legally wearing a marine uni form and on suspicion of writ ing a series of bad checks. Two things tripped up Lyons and., his ..high-flying., career through crowds of hero - wor shippers, according to Pieper. One was the syndicated column ist's reference to "Chuck O'Brien" as a holder of the Con gressional Medal of Honor; and the other was. Lyons' error in claiming that he had invaded Saipan after Guam when ac tually, Guam was Invaded after Saipan. Lyons, actually a seaman, 2nd Nights Only Weekdays Doors Open 6:45 CLOSED WEDNESDAY!
