In Flanders Fields

In Flanders fields the pOpp!es blow
Between the crosses, row and row,
That mark our places, and in the sky
The larks still bravcly singing fly,
Scarce heard amidst the guns below.
We are the dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe,
To you from falling hands we throw
The torch---be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die,
We shall not sleep though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

Wholesome Nut Meats
yNHE increased demand for nuts is due

HNHE increased demand for nuts is due

more particularly the peanut, as a SUBJ
stitute for meat and other nitrogenous
and fatty foods.
1t has been shown by numerous in
vestigations that nuts are rich in protein
and fat and that these nutrients can
be fairly well assimilated.
Nuts are Il concentrated food. and
eating considerable quantity out OF
hand at odd times will mean an over
supply of food IL corresponding reduc-
tion is not made in the quantity of
other foods eaten during the day. The
distress sometimes experienced when
nuts are eaten Is undoubtedly often due
to improper mastication or to overn-
dulgence since Investigations indicate
clearly that considerable quantities of
nuts properly eaten do not cause dis
tress. There is popular belief that
little salt with nuts prevents the di-
gestive disturbance resulting from eat
ing them. To most persons salt un-
doubtedly adds to the palatability of the
nuts. but no Investigations have been
found on record which demonstrate any
actual improvement in the digestibility
of nuts due to salt.
Since nuts are reiished by most per-
sons. are nutritious and may be readily
used by themselves and In various palat-
able combinations as an integral part
of the diet, they have legitimate place
in the menu. Those who, for any rea-
son. wish to live on vegetable foods and
dairy products, or any form of vegetable
or fruit diet. will almost inevitably look
to nuts particularly such as the peanut.

goes as fast as he can jump. When he
gets to the next boy, who is waiting he
hands the flag TO that boy, who goes on
as fast as he can jump t. the next boy
and gives him the flag. Then that boy
runs and man with watch puts down
how many minutes each boy ran and
the boy who ran his distance in the
least time is the best runner. Then
