iloubt," he "aid, "there is a good deal of indigestion from bad bread, but even people vcho digest it badly, and dislike it, too, grow fatter and physically stronger. This is especially noticeable in spare men of middle age. Possibly the explanation is that-we were eating more bread before than we could digest. Perhaps, too, the mixture of grains in bread is proving more nourishing than the pure wheaten loaf; the stomach likes variety, and the people who do the best intellectual work are those who feed on all available food-tuffs."

ONE FIRM THAT SAYS IT CAN GET PLENTY OF COAL Wheel Works Announces it Has Secured 300 Tons of Fuel. COMPANY TO SELL THE COAL AT COST Sinned Statement by A. M. I-of-land OfTerinj? Coal to Lebanon Consumers. Toe Reporter today received a letter from A. M. I.ofland, general man ager of the Indestructible Wheel

Company in regard to the coal situa-, reasons, from a bu. ines.s standpoint, tion. The letter need.i no comment, 1 why wo should do our best in supfor it speaks for itself. It is as fol-1 porting the government by buying lows: ' Liberty Bonds. Wc aM reci ignite the Editor: j fact that it is prudent and good busiI attended the meeting the other ness judgment to carry Life Insurance evening at the court house at which land provide indemnity against lo.ss by time the local fuel situation was dis-1 lire, accident etc. That is just what cussed and, instead of spreading so, we are doing now when we are supmuch gloom, (and it was ce-tainly j porting; the governmfmt w ith our there,) some of the organised bodies j money and other means. When we can certainly do soroethins; to allevi- take away our support, we take away ate this situation. our country, home and liberty and With winter here the situation lwe have nothing left. This is no indeed serious and, even if times are time to wait and argue how this war strenuous, coal ia being mined justlmignt have been avoided; and to dia-

the same and there is no question about it but that Lebanon must have a certain amount of fuel. Stress was laid too strongly on the idea that il was absolutely impossible to get coal delivered to Lebanon now. My job is making Steel Truck Wheels and Auto Trucks and I do not know anything about the coal business, only as a layman sees it. As there seems to be no coal in the city the question up to me was, "get some coal." Our employees have to burn coal and be kept warm. I immediately got busy with one of our principals who furnish us coal and we will have, sometime the latter part of this week, about 2"0 cr :!! tens of Indiana Mine Run on our side tracks that we will let the needy have at cost to us. Three hundred tons will not last long, 1 know, in a city ihe size cf Lebanon, but multiply it by 10 or 15 which we are in a position to do, it necessary, and I am suie tnat it will alleviate some of the siicrtage. I believe this is the best method to answer the arguments I listened to the other evening and if you will please state to anybody really in need of a ton of coal to call No. 40, leave it reque-t and oe will put your name on our list. I would be glad to turn tin; coal over to the city dads or to the County Council of National

Defense anil let them handle it, if they desire. I Inde-triKtible Wheel Company, A. M. j LOU. AND, Gen. Mgr. ' ' .
