Is all starch-sugar and fat.
Now, no meals so one sided can be
healthful. A hasty glance would
perhaps lead us to believe that the
mans lunch was more wholesome
than the woman's, but both are
dietetically bad. We have said so
often that the ideal meal is COM
posed of four different elements-the
proteid or muscle forming; the su-
gar-stareh or fat-forming. and the
fat or heat-forming, and the mineral
ment and tonic qualities. The bal
anced'' meal must have some of each
Of the four qualities represented in
the foods which compose it. In. this
way all the needs of the body are
supplied by every meal and no one
need Is oversupplied.
If we had taken the eggs from the
first lunch and added them to the
waffes of the second, and put in a
vegetable or a fruit salad. We would
have had nearly perfect meal.
From the eggs there are protein, the
waff1es give starch and fat. and the
vegetable or fruit would give the
necessary watery and favorfuI quali-
ties to make the meal satisfying,
energy producing and refreshing.
1t is exceedingly simple to plan
home meals, or to choose meals from
a bill of fare after the balanced
plan. Select one food from each Of
the four groups or such combinations
that will give the four different food
qualities. Here are some wrong
combinations:
Rice. spaghetti. bread too much

Fried potatoes. doughnuts. GRO
quettes Ctoo much starch and fat.
Waffies chocolate, cake, pastry
(too much sugar and faO.
Vegetable salad. baked apple, vege-
