HOW TO EAT IN SUMMER

"The three chief constituents of
foods are proteins which go to the
building of tissue, carbohydrates and
fats, whose function is to maintain
the heat of the body, and to furnish
energy" says DR.. M. ?. Ravenel of the
department of preventive medicine of
the University of Missouri.
DR.. Ravenel says that carbohy-
drates, which includes the starches
and sugars, lessen the need of fats,
and when taken in excess are stored
up in the body as fat. When hard la
Dor is performed, we instinctively de-
sire fat. Also, when cold weather
comes we have a craving for such
foods. During the hot weather la
boring man requires fuel but not to
the extent that he does in winter.
There is no demand on the body to
keep up the bodily temperature such
as we find during the cold months.
A diet which contains an excess of
any of these materials is not apt to
be borne well during the hot season,
and makes the person who eats it
more uncomfortable. Generally speak
ing, a diet much lighter, both as re-
CARDS quantity and kinds of food, is
to be desired in the summer. Meats,
and especially fat meast, should be
taken in moderation Starches can be
eaten in moderate abundance, but the
amount of sugar should be cut down.
An abundance of fresh fruits and veg
etables should be taken. While veg
etables and fruits do not as rule
contain a great deal of material which
is regarded as being nutritious, they
nevertheless serve in keeping up the
nutrition of the body, as they contain
organic acids which keep up the al
kalinity of the blood, give variety to
the diet, increase the appetite and fur
nish certain substances which are

Social Life in Rural Communities

This is one of the things that, like
Charity, should begin at home.
A we'll trained child will be content
with what his parents can afford, and
parents in every case can afford this:
to make their home inside and outside
as attractive as their means will al
low. 1t is very poor family indeed
that cannot afford at least one good
paper or magazine.
If there is enough surplus after the
home and daily living is paid for, each
child should be helped to whatever
branch of higher education it aspires
to.
If the children show a taste for mu-
sic, musical instrument should be
provided with as much instruction on
how to play it as can be afforded.
Parents should not object to reas-
enable amount Of Company. When
daughters arrive at an age to receive
calls from young men they should be
allowed to do so in their own home
under the care of the parents. They
should be taught the proprieties in re-
gard to their friendships with men
then they will be neither too indiffer-
ent nor too "fast."

A STRONG ARGUMENT

In selecting a candidate for Attor-
ney General, it is well for the country
voters to remember that st. Louis is
making a persistent fight to have the
State Board of Equalization raise the
assessed value of farm lands and coun-
try real estate generally, to its ac-
tual cash value.
This means that the valuation Of
real estate in the country would be
trebled or quadrupled and the taxes
raised in the same proportion. The
Attorney General is a member of the
State Board of Equalization, and
Frank W. McAllister, of Monroe coun-
ty, has lived in the country all of his
life, is in sympathy with the country
people and can be depended upon to
oppose the efforts of st. Louis to
raise the taxes of the country people,
to the bitter end Both of his oppo-
nents are from the city of st. Louis.

couraged to entertain their boy friends
in the home, then there will not be so
many boys down on the creeks fishing
or partaking in worse amusements on
Sunday afternoons.
So much for the home. Now for
the community: The church holds the
moral uplift of the community in its
hands, and if it does not provide
amusements that will entertain as
we'll as instruct the young people and
children, they will most certainly seek
entertainment elsewhere and usually
will find it in questionable hamts.
Often there is a sad lack of any en-
tertainment, even the Sunday Schools
would have to be inspected very close
~ to know what is their intended use.
Don't as much as open on time. I've
lost more time by being on time at
country Sunday Schools than in wait
ing for accommodation trains.
Teacher training classes, literary
and Boy Scout clubs, etc, add greatly
to a community's social resources.
Consolidated schools and the free use
of the buildings for social purposes,
rural telephone systems and R. F. d.
Routes are all great factors in lifting
rural life out of the ruts.
