C-ll-tf i i Professor Swain Gives First of Series of Talks on Nutrition Performs Experiments Showing the Composition of Digestible Substances What food la and what it la mado of formed the anbject matter of the first of Professor E. Swains series of free lectures last Wednesday afternoon. How it I digested, something of dietaries, and aomethlng of the properties of food as It come Into the kitchen will be treated In the remaining two lectures, he says. More than a hundred women gathered in the Red Cross headquarters to hear the lecture, and a war-time cast was glren to the occasion by tbo considerable number of women who continued to aew on surgical pada during tbe talk.
Professor Swain made Ms talk extremely Interesting not only by tbe dear and simple manner In which he expounded his subject, but by the chemical experiments that he performed to Illustrate some of his points. For Instance, to show that sugar is formed front starch cheml- rally he produced a quantity of corn syrup." doing on small scale exactly what to done on an lin-! men He srale commercially. And to show that fats are split Into two: siihKtances by chemical treatment aa In dlgeMtion he proceeded to produce Wliy ItaMMit Oust or Soap flu Down? That why the price of fata lx going up. he remarked. "Fata are being umd to produce immense! quantities of glycerine, the substance that la ordinarily a component of cosmetics, but now used aa an Ingredient of explosive for the destruction of human lives.
1 "Soap hasn't gone down In price," he continued, "but It ought to If price were regulated by the laws of supply and demand alone. There 1 an Immense over-production of soap. Wliat Food Is and Is Not. Food," Professor Swain said, Is any substance that will promote growth of tha body and repair lames, and In moderate amounts will not hurt digestion.

Purposes of the Fuad. The function of the War Council which 1 calling for the from tho nation la shown by the proclamation of President Wilson on May It creating It. "lie lays stress on tho fact that tha relief work caa be beet carried on by centralising the work la tho hands of a single experienced body and calls on all dtlsens who can give money for tho relief of distress brought on by tho war to make their contributions to tho Rad Cross. 1 have today," be aaya ia hla proclamation, created within the Red Cross a War Council to which will he entrusted tho duty of responding to the extraordinary demands which tho present war will make upon the services of tho Red Croaa both In tho field and In civilian relief. Tho best way ia which to Impart tho greatest efflclenry and energy to tho relief work which this war will entail will be to concentrate It In the hands of single experienced organlxatlon which has been recognized by law and by International convention tho public Instrumentality for such purposes.
Indeed such a concentration of administrative action In thla matter aeema to me absolutely necessary, and 1 hereby earnestly call upon al those who can contribute either great sums or small to tho alleviation of the suffering and dla Irena which must Inevitably arise out of this fight for humanity and democracy, to contribute to the Red Cross. It will be one of the first and most necessary tasks of tbo new War Connell of the Red Croat to raise great sums of money for the support of tho work to bo done and done upon a great scale. I hope that the response to their efforts will be a demonstration of the generosity of America and the power of genuine practical sympathy among our people that will command the admiration of the whole world. Among the uses to which this fund will be put are the care of tho United States troops at home and abroad the provision for civilian relief In thla country, the protection of the dependents of soldiers and the relief of distress arising from the war In Europe. Including the rehabilitation of homes and communities destroyed ee In the reconquered portions of France.
The sum, Immense as It Is, Is Inadequate for these tremendous ne4ls, of rourse, hut tho fund will be administered with judgment and ability. Thla Is assured by the composition of the War Council, which Is aa follows: Cornelius N. Bliss, Jr, Hdward N. Hurley, Grayson M. P.
Murphy, Churlea D. Norton, William H. Taft, Eliot Wadsworth, Henry P. Davison, chairman. There Is a special War Council finance committee also, of which William H.
Crocker la a member ia San Francisco. Official Central Agency. The Red Cross la the agency with the authority of the national govern ment back of It for the relief of all kinds of suffering and distress brought on by the war, and It ha proved Ita capacity for thla work and gained experience In many suc-ressful efforts In the past. Ita organization la so complete for tbe task, and Ita means of acting effectively so thoroughly ensured by the standing given It by the President that no doubt is entertaiued that the fund will he raised In the time set. Definite allotments have been made to states and communities throughout the nation, and local committees are organized In worjr section to rarry the campaign throngh.
In some communities extraordin ary methods of campaign have been arranged, but the character of the people of Palo Alto and the surrounding country Is such that the rommlttees reel that tho 125.660 called for will be raised merely by calling tbe attention of the citizen to the need of the money.

Conatable Patrone of Morgan Hill Only Officer to Make an Arrest Only one alack has been found, la Santa Clara county, according to Sheriff Langford, who was in Palo Alto this morning with the San Jose roundup boosters. This slacker was a half-witted man who was picked up by Constable Patrone of Margon Hill. Not single arrest has been made in San Jose or In any other town In the county. Chief Noble stated today that hla search for slackers had been fruit leas, and he has about reached tbe conclusion that every person of military age In this city has registered San Jose Roundup Men Invade City (Continued from page 1) bit abashed ot his garments.

i i I. i 1 1 and vegetable. The plant organism la fundamentally Important. Animal life depends ultimately on plant life. So the solution of the food problem begins when the farmer plants hla seed.
Chemistry comes Into the food question here, because all substances may he broken down by the chemist Into simple components. There are about eighty of these simple substances, called elements, hut only about eighteen go Into plant growth, and only alx are present In considerably amounts water, mineral sub stance or ash. carbohydrates, fats, proteins, and the recently discovered hut very Important vltamtnes. Problem Water Make. Of these water composes a large part of food substances.
From 70 to 80 percent of living tissue, with all Ita marvellous properties. Is made up of water. This brings up an Interesting problem that we shall consider further later on. Potatoes contain 78 percent of water: rice only 18.3 percent. With potatoes at 4 cents a pound, the dry substance coats 18 cents a pound.
With rice at 7 emits a pound, aa It Is by the hundred pound, the dry substance. costa only 8 cent a pound Mineral substances are always present and are absolutely essential to a complete food for human subsistence. Men cannot live without salt, for Instance. The carbohydrates are made np of carbon, oxygen and hydrogen. Sugar are Important examples of the carbohydrates, and all 4are broken down Into sugar In digestion.
Fats For lleat. The fats are also composed of exactly the same elements, carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. Oils In cot ton seed, olives, peanuts, butter, lard and other familiar examples are "arbohydrates. They furnish beat to the body. Oleomargarine Is a neglected food that we shall want to touch on later.
