5th 4 THE BROOKLYN DAILY EAGLE. NEW YORK. MONDAY, APRIL 4. 1921. 5 PRESIDENT STARTS NATIONAL SURVEY OF DISTRIBUTION Elimination of Waste Is Objective of Task Assigned to George L.

Brown. A national survey of distribution, with elimination of waste and wasteful methods as its objective, has been undertaken, it is understood, by George Lippincott Brown, a New York business man, associated with the United Auto Stores Company, as part of the program of the new administration at Washington to aid in putting business on its feet. Mr. Brown is understood to have talked with President Harding and Secretary Hoover. He is a personal friend of Charles E.

Hughes, and it is surmised that Mr. Hughes had something to do with bringing his name to the attention of Mr. Harding. This was before the inauguration of the new Administration. Mr.

Brown declined today to discuss his work or any plans President Harding or Secretary of Commerce Hoover have business lines. The survey concern itself solely with problems of distribution, as distinguished from the national industrial survey undertaken by the American Engineering Council which is studying industrial problems to find how waste may be minimized, or eliminated, in the field of production. Mr. Brown lives a at Neponsit, L. I.

SANDMAN STORY, FOR THE LOON'S CRY NCE upon a time long ago the Loon did not have such a disagreeable voice as he now has and its dismal cry did not send a shiver down one's spine as it does today. The Loon very handsome bird in summer, 'the upper parts glossy black, showing changing colors of violet and green tints, while the back and wings are spotted and barred with white and the underneath breast all white. boast So you it see made it had the some night claim when to the fairies were holding a revel near the water where Loon lived.

Sone of the fairies had wandered away from others and were flittering about in the moonlight when one of them saw the Loon and heard it say to another: "How can anyone, even the fairies, think they are more beautiful than we are? "Everyone who sees us admires us and says we are SO beautiful they wish we would always stay on land, so we have no one to fear as a rival, and the Fairy Queen better look after her children if she does not wish mortals to think more of us than the fairies." The little fairies were shocked to hear such things, for no one had ever dared question their dainty beauty or that every mortal did not love a fairy better than anything else and wished to have them always near. So off ran the listeners to tell their Queen, and in a few minutes the Queen was there to hear for herself what the bragging Loon was saying. "The very idea," she said, "that any mortal would rather have the Loon near by than one of you, my dainty fairies. But have no fear, the Loon shall pay for this; he shall have a cry that will make him so disagreeable to the mortal ear that none will wish to hear or see him." Then on a passing breeze the Queen sprang, and as it floated over the Loons she touched their throats with her magic wand, and while the birds thought it was the breeze that touched their feathers, when they again spoke to each other it was to utter a sad, dismal cry which made every one who heard it wish to put their fingers in their ears to shut out the sound. And while the Loon is the largest and handsomest of the diving birds, it has to this day the voice given it by the Fairy Queen long, long ago, and as no one wants it near, the Loon is a solitary creature and changing from place to place and 'never letting mortals get near it.

But the Loon is not stupid or crazy as some have hinted that he is. He clever enough when away from land DOT PICTURE PUZZLE so 25 24 22 33 20 84 01 18 58 15 14 10 13 Draw From Oge to Two and so on the End, (TRADE BALL- BEARING CUSHION YOUR DEALER WITH STEINFELD BROS NEW OBITUARY YCYCLEI EDWIN A.

WILLIAM BRADY AUTOBOYOGRAPHY-INI Real Victuals ROBABLY the most important period of a man's life as regards the selection of his food, is from the second to the seventh year of his boyhood, From father's exhaustive study of the science and my personal experience of the art of boy feeding in the past 6 years we have arrived at some practical conclusions which I here set down.

As soon as a boy or child is equipped by Nature with teeth those teeth should be used for mastication, which keeps them clean and makes them strong. At the age of 2 years most boys have a set of about 16 teeth incisors, 4 canines and molars -and that is an ample machinery for the mastication of real victuals. It is great mistake, based 011 ancient ideas infant feeding? to keep the diet of a youngster restricted to liquids, and sundry supposedly "easily "digested" substitutes for real vicuals. A great many cases of digestive difficulty enduring for many years occur from such Ill-advised mollycoddling of a boy's eats. Have it that a child is a sickly proposition it you will, but for goodness sake don't train a boy to be afraid of his victuals.

For instance, some sanitarium-diet fanatics teach that Nature's most wonderful food, sugar, is rank poison for children. Stuff and nonsense. Those sanitarium food specialists ought to get out and meet a few real boys. I tell you sugar is one of the most nutritious, most quickly available (quickly digested, absorbed and utilized for energy) and most essential food elements in the diet of infants and young children. Mother's milk is more than half sugar, so far ag its nutritive elements are concerned.

The sanitarium food specialists may be right there with the diet for invalids, but I tell you again they are terribly mistaken when they preach on sugar and no candy or no sweets for young children. Dad insists on keeping on our table a big bowl of the brownest, crudest grade of brown sugar there is, and he has never worried whether I used half a spoonful or 6 spoonsful on my entire wheat or oats or on my bread and butter. He prefers the crude brown to the so-called refined pale sugar because the brown contains about 200 times as much mineral matter as the white granulated sugar, and this mineral matter is essential to health. And when it comes to good WEDDING PARTY IN CRASH Four occupants of a taxicab bound for a wedding in Manhattan miracuously escaped what seemed certain death or serious injury Saturday when the vehicle they were riding in was struck by a motortruck at the inter. section of Fulton st.

tines, it is pediatricians true that or some baby of the specialists oldwere badly obsessed with the sanitarium conception of boy feeding, and their nimble little handbooks for anxious mothers are still doing a lot of harm by propagating the great error even if the specialists themselves have long since changed their views garding sugar as food. So, come on, good parents, if you've got 8 boy boarding at your house, loosen up with the sugar bowl and make it brown, the darker the better. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.

RIGINALLY in England unmarO ried mothers or discarded mistresses were known as "grace widows." This title was conferred upon them because of the graceful or courteous manner in which they were supposed to have been "set aside." In our own country, and now in England as well, the word "grace" has been corrupted into "grass" in a manner not definitely established.

The word "grass-widow" in America is applied to women temporarily separated from their husbands. It can also be applied to a divorcee, but is not often used in this manner. The change from "grace" to "grass" is supposed to have occurred during the gold rush in California '49, In that period some of these adventurers developed the habit of departing from their homes rather hurriedly and, of course, without their wives. The latter, thrown on their own resources, had to "pick" their own living, from the soil or otherwise. Perhaps there was a joke that, having nothing else.

they had to eat grass. Thus the phrase may have been evolved. With His Own Petard." Tonight's Events Memorial service for the Rev. H. Hendrickson, Spencer Presbyterian Church, Clinton and Remsen sts.
