MINERAL FOOD MUST GO
THROUGH VEGETABLE
OR ANIMAL TO BE
ASSIMILABLE.
It is the various compounds
of the mineral elements that are
so important In the processes
of nutrition. So Important are
they that a school of medicine,
biochemistry, has been based
upon their administration. Iron,
sulphur or phosphorus may be
found deficient in the blood as
Indicated by symptoms, but you
cannot furnish sulphur to the
blood by drinking a solution of
sulphur water. Mineral food
must go throigh the vegetable
or animal. If we want Iron or
sulphur we must eat lettuce,
eggs, meat, peanuts, wheat or
other nuts or cereals. The veg-
etables, especially beane, let-
tuce, potatoes and nuts, are rich
est in the mineral salts. Nuts
contain, everything considered,
the best supply.
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.
Norman has now a commercial and
business organization known as the
Chamber of Commerce The meeting

organization. The membership con
sists of about 200 members.

tended by 50 live, representative boost
ers. Tom F. Carey was elected presi
dent, E. K. Himes first vice-president

The directors are D. L. Larsh, A
McDaniel, W. L. Eagleton, H. 1*.

liams and C. H. Bessent.
The president will be chairman of
the board of directors The board of
directors held a meeting and elected
R A. Brigham secretary and Wni.
Synnott treasurer
The by-laws provides for a meet-
ing of the entire body on the third
Tuesday night of each month and the
board of directors the first and third
Tuesday nights.
The new organization starts out
under the most favorable circum-
stances. The officials are live, up-to-
date, progressive business men and
town builders. There is lots of work
to he done and we feel sure that the
men at the head of the Chamber of
Commerce will work early and late on
the job.
CIVIC LEAGUE OF NORMAN.
The president and committees o:
the Civic League met at the park on
the afternoon of Thursday, Septem-
ber 29th, from three to five to dis-
cuss plans for future work
The president, Mrs. Cheadle, gave
an interesting report of the work
done by her this summer and a per-
manent organization was effected.
After the business meeting a pic
nic supper was spread for the hus-
bands of the members present and
the members of the council and the
mayor; and in the evening talks were
given by Mayor Sharp, and others
present pledging themselves to co-
operate heartily with the activities
and purposes of the League. Mr. L.
J. Edwards offered to head a sub
scription toward the improvement of
the grounds adjacent to the Santa
Fe depot.
The object of the League is not
in all social. The purpose is to work
in a systematic way for the things
that will make Norman a better, more
attractive and more healthful place
to live and to this end the officers
and committees of the League ask
the co-operation of all good citizens

ma further demands of the legislature
the repeal of the act of the second
lepislature providing for legislative
referendums of constitutional amend-
ments and other provisions submit-
ted in such a way as to provide that
voters approve the proposition or
amendment by refusing to vote there
on—in other words we favor such
a revision of the law as will require
an affirmative vote to carry any con-
stitutional amendment or other pro- I jje w
vision submitted by the referendum
to the people.
Be it resolved by the democratic
state convention that we demand of
the legislature to amend theprimary
election law in such a way:
First. As to acquaint the voter with
the ticket in advance of the primary
date.
Second. To provide for the rota
tion of all nominees for all offices
for every party so as to enable every
candidate so far as practicable to be
come beneficiary of the careless
voter and thus eliminate the advant-
age of arrangement by alphabetical
jtified with it as it* publicly avowed

state has to protect itself from the

its members to vote or take any part
in any election or other proceedings
01 such political party as it is for one
who is not a qualified elector to vote
at any state election or to take am'
part in the business of the state
Fifth. We further demand the leg-
islature to provide for an easy and
efficient contest between candidate
for the nomination upon any ticket
and the legal determination of the
result of any primary.
Sixth. We favor such other and
further revision of the primary law
as will define by law the rights of
the candidate and voter particularly
the elimination of all discretion so
far as it is practicable now lodged
in county and state election boards,
and the publication of the primary
law for distribution so that the can-
didate and voter may know their
rights in advance of holding such pri
tnary. and for ample provision for
watchers at the polls when the vote
is counted
Seventh The chairman of this con
vention is authorized to select a
committee of five to revise and sub
mit to the next legislature primary
election laws for enactment
Be it resolved by the Oklahoma
state democratic convention that we
approve the policy of selecting the
machinery of the party from those
democrats who hold no office, and
that we favor such an amendment to
our primary election law as will pro
vide for the selection of the mem
hers of the state committee, and the
chairman thereof, only such demo-
crats who hold no state or district
office, or office under the constitution
and law s of the United States govern
ment. and that the campaign com
mittee together with the chairman
and secretary shall take no interest
as between candidates during the
contest in a primary election for the
nominees of the party
The democratic party favors such
an amendment to our primary and
general election law- as will abolish
the expensive system of a supreme
state election board, which under our
law carries an unnecessary salary
and other expenditures, and that the
state election hoard shall consist of
the secretary of state and two othe-
members from each of the two dom-
inant parties in the state, and that
the members of the said board shall |
serve without salary except for the
actual days necessary in conducting
the election
In keeping with the national dem-
ocratic platform, it is hereby provid-
ed that for the future guidance of
the democratic party the new state
committeemen shall begin serving
immediately upon their election, and
the members of the former commit-
tee shall cease immediately upon the
election of their successors Tin
practice heretofore of the state com j
mittee's selecting the temporary or '
ganization of state conventions is |
hereby abolished, and in the future j
such organization shall be selected j
from among the duly accredited i
delegates to any convention conven !
ed for any purpose by the democrat- i

CHARTS OF FOOD VALUES.
The United Stateu department
of Agriculture has Issued a se-
ries of charts showing the food
values of various articles of
foods. Such charts with tables
of food values are very helpful,
especially In leading people to
consider the composition of what
they eat and the relative values
of foods, nutritionally and eco-
nomically, but In no respect is
It more true that a little knowl-
edge is a dangerous thing. For
instance, to compare cheese and
meat on a scale of 84 and 82, be-
cause those are their compara-
tive values In calories of heat
and energy production, Is mis-
leading; many other facts must
be considered before the su-
periority of cheese is realized.
However, with the explanation
which we propose giving of
these charts, which we will re-
produce from day to day, our
reader* will get much valuable
systematic knowledge of food
values.
