nor too large a number that will digest
too easily and quickly. When foods
are improperly combined. some por-
tions are not digested and assirnilated
fully and as they lie in the digestive
tract unused, poisonous products are
liable to be produced A daily ration
consisting Of oysters, milk and rice
would contain all the nutrients re-
quired by the body and would be Of
about the proper bulk required for a
ration, but If the laboring man were
fed on such diet he would experience
hunger because the foods are so easily
digested that the digestive organs
would not have enough TO do. A one
sided diet never fails to bring evil re-
suits.
We, as a nation. boast that we can
make an American Of any foreigner
who chooses to make his home among
US. Let US then pay more heed to our
manner of living and hasten the time
when we can say that the native
American is a model man, physically,
mentally and morally. We experiment
much and spend much money to learn
the wisest feeding of our stock. yet one
famous writer says of US: 1T is not
surprising that the Americans are
coming to be known as a race of dys-
peptics when we consider their univer-
sal ignorance of the uses and the needs
Of the human body. If this be our
reputation does it not prove that
change is necessary somewhere? Is it
not possible to prevent the rapid
spread of disease due to malnutrition
by teaching the school girls how to
best select and prepare proper foods
The educational center should be in
the foreground in helping forward this
work of instructing girls along prac-
teal industrial lines. a work which is
working wonders in other countries.
Surely no one can think that a study
of such vital Importance TO the whole
race is merely a new-fangled fad. It
is strong, definite and decided step
upward in the progress Of civilization.

The Place Home Economics Should
Occupy in the School Curriculum
By MISS ETHEL CHASE

The purpose Of this paper is to show
the. place which the study of home
economies should occupy in the school
| curriculum. BY the term home econo-
les, I mean doestic art, including the
study Of fabrics and textiles, home
decoration, good taste In dress, the
handicrafts, drafting of patterns and
cutting, fitting and making garments,
as we'll as domestic science. with which
this paper will be concerned, consist
ing of study along an infinite variety
of lines: sanitation and hygiene, bac-
tertology, chemistry Of foods, dietetics,
food value and combinations, food
economy, and the preparation and
serving of food. These, claim, should
be taught to every girl during some
period of her school life in order that
she may perform, to the best advan-
tage, the duties which will later de-
volve upon her. You say home is the
place where such things should be
taught, her mother the proper teacher:
schools should not waste time on fads?
1 purpose to show you wherein domes-
tic science is not merely a fad, and
also that the school room Is the place
where 1t should be taught.
TT is safe to state that two-thirds of
all disease Is brought about by errors
in diet-either the food principles have
not been maintained or the food has
been improperly cooked" While this
statement may at first seem like an
exaggeration, a consideration Of sta
tistics from children's hospitals will
show you its truth. The results from

During the time the headquarters
have been at Carriers Bayou, the of
fees in this city have been retained,
bat have been closed. Pensacola has
been recognized as the official head
quarters for the forest, but on account
of the hot weather and also on account
of a lot of work which was being dona
in that section OF the forest which de-
manded the attention of the super
visor, the offices were moved TO Gar
nier's Bayou during the summer
months. However, permanent quarters
were erectd at that point before the
Office was moved there and it is prob
able that the summer quarters will be
there in the future.
