French's Drug Store Phone 66 Accidents are Few Records of the War Department show that from the beginning of training in June 1917, to February 22, 1918, the fatalities at military aviation fields in this country have been 51; 10 officers and 29 cadets killed in training flights, and 12 men killed in unauthorized flights and ground accidents. Since the training began in the United States, student aviators have flown considerably more than 100,000 miles.

Hundreds of hitherto inexperienced men have been learning to fly. Their early flights are under the guidance of instructors, and prior to these flights two or more months are spent in preliminary ground work. There comes a time, however, when every student aviator must take his machine up alone, and every precaution has been taken to reduce the number of accidents and safeguard the aviator in his solo flights.

A. MILES, Sole Agent, Tyro, Kansas FACE the FACTS us face the facts. The war situation is critical. LET Unless the Allies fight as they never yet have fought, defeat threatens. Hungry men cannot fight at their best; nor hungry nations.

France, England, and Italy are going hungry unless we feed them. Wheat Savings -They must have wheat. It is the best food to fight on. It is the easiest to ship. We alone can spare it to them.

By saving just a littleless than a quarter of what we ate last year- can support those who are fighting our battles. And we can do it without stinting ourselves. We have only to substitute another food just as good. The Corn of Plenty--Corn is that food. a surplus of it.

Providence has been generous in the hour of our need. It has given us corn in such bounty as was never known before. Tons of corn. Trainloads of corn. Five hundred million bushels over and above our regular needs.

The Indians, hardiest of races, lived on it. Our forefathers adopted the diet and conquered a continent. For a great section of our country it has blong een the staff of life.

How well the South fought on it, history tells. Now it can help America win a world war. Learn Something--Corn! It isn't one food. It's dozen. It's a cereal.

It's a vegetable. It's a bread. It's a dessert. It's nutritious; more food value in it, dollar for dollar, than meat or eggs or most other vegetables. It's good to eat; how good you don't know until you've had properly cooked.

Best of all, it's plentiful and it's patriotic. Corn's Infinite Variety--How much do you know about corn? About how good it is? About the many delicious ways of cooking it? And what you miss by not knowing more about it? Here are a few of its uses: There are at least fifty ways to use corn meal to make good dishes for dinner, supper, lunch or breakfast. Here are some suggestions: HOT BREADS DESSERTS Boston brown bread. Corn-meal molasses calsa. Hoecake.

Apple corn bread. Muffins. Dumplings. Biscuits. Gingerbread.

Griddle cakes. Fruit gems. Waffles. HEARTY DISHES Corn-meal croquettes. Corn-meal fish balls.
