A report by the army medicaj research committee dis cusses at length the disease known as "soldier's heart," which has been very prevalent in the British army during the past two years. iThe re port asserts that the ailment "is not true heart disease at all, but is often treated as such," and shows that about ?U per cent of those affected have later returned to duty as the result of a system of physical training. ihe report states that rest in bed is harmful for these cases, and should be avoided at all stages of treatment except in instances of severe heart pain, severe headache or giddiness." The ordinary symptoms of "soldier's heart" are breathlessness, pain, ex haustion, giddiness and fainting, with palpitation, lassitude and irritability.

COMMUNAL FEEDING FOR LONDON POOR Kitchen of Largest Hotel England to Be Used to Prepare Food. in WILL BAKE NO BREAD HYMENEAL. Casey-Howard. Red Oak, la.. April 27. fSnecial.i Edward T. Casey and Miss Helen M. Howard, both ot Ked Uak, were married Wednesday evening at 8 o'clock at the home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. O. G. Howard, 909 Coolbaugh street. The ceremony was performed by Rev. F. L. McAfee of Clarksville, Mo., a former pastor ot the Ked Oak Presbyterian church. Guests from out of town were Mr. and Mrs. Marshal Howard and chil dren of Council Bluffs, Rev. Mr. and Mrs. F. L. McAfee of Clarksville, Mo., and Miss Nelle Gunn of Omaha. Mr. and Mrs. Casev will be at home to their friends after May 15 in their beautiful new residence, which has just been completed, at '911 Cool baugh street. (Corraspondenca of Tho Associated Presa.) London, April 17; Communal feed ing will be established oa a large scale in London this month, under the direction of the food sontroller. The kitchen of the largest hotel in Lon don will be utilized for preparing the food, which will be distributed over a wide area by means ot local depots. The intention at present, is not so much to. provide cheap food for poor persons, as to provide economically prepared foed for alt classes, the idea being thus to conserve available sun- plies. Mrs. Pember Reeves, woman director of the Food Controller s of fice, defined the purpose of the new move as follows: We shall have a central kitchen where food can be cooked in the most economical way, so that the best pos sible use is made of the supplies available. We shail not bake bread. We shall hone by nrovidine nourish ing and palatable meals to get people to eat more of their meat ration and so lighten the consumption of bread, which is the most, important thing just now. We shall take foods that are comparatively plentiful, such as the salted fish which is coming on the ir.arkcts in large quantities, and make it into a great variety of at tractive dishes'. It is not a Question Of money-saving, but of proving that the sound scientific handhne of food by a skilled staff is economy in food. feed Twice as Many. "With such a kitchen we oueht to be able to, feed 10,000 personsv with the same food which would have fed 5,000 if prepared in badly managed private kitchens. We shall be ready to supply meals to dukes and ducheses from the kitchen as well as working eople. it will not be a restaurant, ut a distributing center from which lame number of local denots are supplied daily with prepared food for sale. There is no question of philan thropy. It is hoped that the kitchen will be self-supporting. At the pres ent time many poor people cannot afford the meat ration, but we hope that we shall encourage the eating of meat as against bread by supply ing it in an economical form. The plan will depend for success largely upon the co-operation of the local authorities, who are taking a practical interest in it. Committees formed under the municipalities will control the local depots, arranging methods of distribution." "Summer Time" Proves of Great Saving to Sweden (Corraapondenco of The Aasoctatad Praaa.) Stockholm, March 25. The intro duction of. "summer time" last year proved advantageous on the whole, in the judgment of the officials of the state railways, who have reported thereon to the minister of the in terior. A saving of about 18,000 crowns was effected in lighting by setting the clocks ahead an hour. The railway officials suggest joint action during the coming summer by Swe den, Norway; Denmark and Germany. It is recommended that the change be' made earlier than last year, and not later than April. Don't Miss the GRAND MASK BALL Given Br Th.

War School Pupils Train In Municipal Auditorium In view of the fact that over 100 young men will probably go from Omaha to Fort Snelling for training as army reserve officers, the city com missioners are co-operating with Omaha's war school to help it as much as possible before the lads go away. City Commissioner Witlinell has i granted free use of the municinal Au ditorium for Sunday morning and the i war school will drill there, beginning at 9 o clock, instead of in rairacres, as at first announced. This oiler was made when Taylor Belcher, chairman j ot the drillers, and srrgeant Burn- side, drillmaster, told Mr. Witlinell of the fine showing being made by j umanas embryonic olucers. "So many are 'going from Omaha that they will probably be camped and trained together as a company at fort snelling, tor a while at least, said Sergeant Burnside. "Omaha should be proud of the large number of volunteers going irom tnia city to he trained as otli cers," said Commissioner Witlinell- He will probably allow the war school to use the Auditorium for drill I purposes Monday night also, if such can he arranged. The school s door drill has previously been held at the court house, but the school is so large that more room it needed. Ball Tickets Net $2,000 For Omaha Red Cross Fund , Contributions amounting to $2,000 have been made to the Omaha Red Cross fund through the efforts of the Red Cross ball committee. South Side commission men yesterday con tributed $622 and 150 letters contain ing checks and orders for more tick ets were received in the first mail. All of the $2.50, the price of the ball tickets, goes to the local fund, as everything incurring expense has been donated. It is expected that more thah $3,000 will be netted from admissions to the ball. The committee feels encnuracrrf. but urges an early reply from patrons no yet neara irom.

Wilson What President Expects of Each Citizen ' Personal responsibility for the outcome of the war is brought home to every man and woman of the United States by President Wilson's appeal to enlist in the great civilian army, without whose whole-hearted services "mere fighting would be useless." "This plea to the American people," declares the Washington Evening Star, "is the most im portant stroke yet delivered in the battle of preparedness," and the Philadelphia North American remarks that "never before in history has a natjon received so sobering a summons at the beginning of a war." , . In THE LITERARY DIGEST for April 28th, the leading article gives a complete description of how the great army of industry is being mobilized throughout the country. It shows the move ments that are under way to increase the cultivation of the land, the proposals to solve the prob lem of a scarcity of farm labor, and numerous other activities. While Germany hails with delight the President's appeal, seeing in it a declaration of weakness because of a lack of supply of food stuffs, no red-blooded American who reads this article will for one moment be convinced that there is any truth in Professor Wygodzinski's statement in the Dusseldorf General Anzeiger, that "on the American wheat field the war will be decided in our (Germany's) favor." v . , Other articles of scarcely less importance in this number of "The Digest" are: . , The Orgy of Destruction That Follows a German Retreat Detailed Descriptions by Eye-Witnesses The Battle for France Our War-Fleet of Wood Canada Smashing the Hindenberg Line Victory by the Watch on the Western Front T.
