Economy and Thoughtful
Planning of Food More
Rational Than Over
Abundance of
Supply.

Now that the Importance OF simplicity
is being so fully recognized as it affects
our clothing and the furniture and decora-
ton Of our houses, the time seems more
than ripe to consider its bearing upon an
even more vital subject-our food.
While there are thousands OF women
who recognize the bad taste Of wearing
overelaborate costumes in the street, q
great proportion Of them do not seem to
realize that It is quite as reprehensiole
and ostentatious to set an overelaoorate
table-Quite aside from its disastrous ef-
fects upon the digestion.
The old rhyme to the effect that civ
ilized man cannot live without cooks
never was meant to mean that COOKS
should work overtime preparing twelve
course dinners, or such an enormous
amount OF food that TO family could pos
sibly do more than make a beginning to
consume 1t.
And II is not only among the families
who can best afford IL that the custom
OF preparing an overabundance OF food
prevails. The idea seems to persist In

while Brooklyn showed 95S cases, as

Simplicity in Diet Makes
for Wholesome Home Life

such a source Of waste is perceived, the
sooner will the high cost Of living take
subordinate part IN the family's thought.
The ideal for all-both rich and poor
should be a reasonable diet, properly and
attractively served. The household will
run much more smoothly and normally IL
II is planned on a scale to meet actual
conditions instead OF to conform TO the
supposed habits of those whose circum-
stances and income differ, and more
rational, pleasant and wholesome family
life will ensue.
The chief thing to consider In the Sc
lection Of food is, of course. its nutritive
value; but the Importance OF It's attrac-
tIveness must not be overlooked. The
n after Of economy in supplying 1t has al
ready been outlined. II goes without say
ing that the more a housekeeper under
stands of the science Of nutrition the bet
ter she is able to plan diet to suit the
needs and desires OF her family.
In this day and age there are many
cooking classes conducted and many books
written to outline balanced diets and
prove that the average man requires 100
grams Of protein day and'3,O0 calorles
Of energy. The Importance Of these lect-
ures and books must not be cried down,
the sooner the housewife learns TO plan
scientifically the sooner will she be re-
warded by the improved health and hap
piness Of her family; but 1t must not be
forgotten that the practical information
that has been handed down from mother
to daughter is often quite as valuable as
textbook knowledge, and that In the
matter OF diet planning, experience, plus
