THE BALANCED RATION.

Preparing a balanced ration for
ones family means more shan one
would think. The season. the climate,
age. occupation and condition OF
health must all be considered In de-
,fermining the food for an individual
In different seasons different foods
are best: this Is also true OF climatic
conditions The age, too, has much
TO do in deciding what is best FOR the
diet. The occupation of a person.
namely an indoor or outdoor worker
the kind and amount Of food varies
for such.
II is only within recent years THAI
women have begun to study these
needs Of the family. and now there
are comparatively few who give IL
more than a passing thought. Many
women feel that instinct tells them
the kind OF food 10 prepare. lt may
be true with some, but instinct IS not
a reliable guide. rs many sufferers
from all sorts of stomach troubles
and other diseases painfully testify.
There are many people today suffer-

er feeding in their youth.

The problem OF foods. as TO guam

FIRST BIRTHS IN
CRAWFORD COUNTY
The Following Paragraph Taken From
History Of Crawford County Tells
Of "First Births"
TWINS BORN TO JESSE MASON
First Matrimonial Transaction Took
Place October IL, 1883, Performed
by Rev. Thos. Dobson.

The first births in the county, ac-
cording to the atlas, were David and
George Jesse Mason, twin sons of Jes-
Sc and Eliza Ann Mason, born in 1852.
The first matrimonial transaction took
place at Mason's grove, October r.,
1858, at which time and place Rev.
Thos. Dobson tied three silken knots,
binding six willing hearts, as follows:
George J. Johnson and Elizabeth Ann
Mason; Noah V. Johnson and Jane
Mason, and Calvin Horr and Elizabeth
Mowery. The first death was that of
John A. Durham, in the winter OF
1S54-5. The first entry OF government
land was made August 81, 1854, by
John Gilbreath. The first school
house erected was at Mason's Grove,

This is not a national holiday; it is

Where the Old Settlers Picnic is Being Held Today

US today. Let old settlers day serve
to re.unite, to strengthen the bonds Of
friendship, to bring renewed harmony
and tolerance, to teach US again the
lesson that we are all one big family,
in spite Of differences Of race, Of re-
Iision, of occupation or Of politics.
God bless the old settlers and God
bless the new, and may the work OF
the past generations be blended with
the work Of today and Of the future so
that no good thing for which our faith
ers strove shall be lost and that the
days to come shall be even brighter
and better than the dear, dead days OF
long ago.
