Central School Exercises

There was quite a large attendance
at the exercises of the grades l
to 4 at the Central school grounds
Tuesday morning. The little folks
had a very interesting program of
games. singing and sports. A spec
ial feature was an exhibition of a
human mechanical doll, little Fran
ces thinner being the doll and
Mercedes O'Malley the operator.
This number would be hard to ex-
cell by performers OF any age. A
May pole was erected on the ground
and a very beautiful drill given
around it. The teachers at this
school are the Misses Marx. Silver,

yet many people eschew thorough
ripe banana in the belief that this
wholesome fruit is rotten" when the
skin becomes darkened, whereas they
eagerly eat the yellowgreen starch
bearing fruit at a stage of incomplete
ripeness. Green bananas, like green"
appIes, are unwholesome so long as the
starch has not been adequately con-
verified into sugars in the ripening
processes. But the delicious and in
nocuous ripe banana should not be
made to suffer in tbs dietic reputa-
ton because of the ignorance of the
consumer. Here is a chance for pop
ular education.
Two other factors deserve notice IN
TIE defense of the maligned banana
! One concerns the reprehensible habit
of gulping down this fruit without
adequate mastication 1t is a pleasure
to watch young children consume ripe
bananas and note the physiologic cor
rectness of their mode of eating. IN
fortunate it is, indeed, that the shape
OF the banana permits it to be intro
duced into the mouth without the
necessity of efficient communion.
The second misfortune is one that in
wolves the retailer of the banana Al
though this fruit is sealed by nature
in practically germ-free and germ
proof packages, most fruit dealers are
wont to tear off bananas from the
stcams to which they are attached. One
end of the fruit pulp is thus exposed
to the air and decay soon sets in. Es>
thetic and hygienic considerations both
demand that bananas should be cuS
(rot torn from the bunch and should
remain completely enclosed in their
natural covering until served.
Experience shows that the thor
oughly ripe banana Tor the less ripe
fruit, after cooking) is undeserving of
tic unfayorable reputation which t
has won in certain quarters. 1t forms
useful addition to the dietary richer
in nutrients and far more delicious
than some of its more expensive com
petitors.

THE UNDERVALUED BANANA

(The Journal of the American Medical
Association.)
The dictum that fruits should be
eaten in their season" finds its limi-
tations as regards variety in the tenn
perate zones at certain periods of the
year, there is, however, one fruit
which is readily available fresh in
American markets at practically all
seasons, although it grows best from
November to April in it's tropical or
semi-tropical home, it is unfortunate
that an article of diet which meets GER
tain nutritive requirements so well and
is so easily obtained at reasonable cost
as the banana should be the subject
Of much misunderstanding among both
physicians and laymen. For despite
the fact that over forty million
punches are reported to have been
brought to the United States last year.
it is popularity stated in many qua
tiers that the banana is difficult Of
digestion and may give rise to alimen-
tary distress
A closer consideration of the COM
position of the banana may serve to
elucidate the situation The fruit j.
brought to our northern markets green
and is ripened by artificial heat THIS
process can be fastened or delayed
within certain limits, according to the
momentary demands of the retail
trade. The color of the peel gives evil
dence of the degree of ripeness. The
green banana contains, in the part
XclusivZ of the skin about 1.15 per cent
C' protein, and 20 to % per cent. OF
carbohydrate, almost entirely starch
In the ripe banana with yellow-brown
reel. the edible part contains some-
what less DC to 10 per cent? of carbo-
lydrate; but that which remains *
aow" almost entirely in the form cf
soluble sugars Broadly speaking
then, the ripe banana is about one
fifth sugar; the green, one-fftn
starch. Most of the remainder of the
eduble pulp is water, intermediate de-
grees in ripeness present starch and
sugar in reciprocal proportions vary
ing between the limits set above.
Inasmuch as bananas are commonly
eaten uncooked, it is obvious that more
or less raw starch will be ingested il
the fruit is not ripe, i. E., if the Skin
has not begun to shriyel and darken
Raw starch may be singularly irritac.

and is at best poorly utilized, whether
it be ingested in the form of uncookes
potatoes, chestnuts, bananas or Other
native starchy foods. No one would
advise the use of uncooked potatoes
