into the north that day. Pierre Raids
son emptied the sledge of everything

Even Kazan, with that strange beast
knowledge which man, unable to ex-

said was not the truth. Perhaps 1t
was largely because he had heard other
men cough like this, and that for gen.
erations his sledge-dog ancestors had
heard men cough as Radisson coughed
and had learned what followed it.

In tepees and cabins, which he had not

And that strange thing seemed to be

You know how important the right
food is in keeping your family in good
health. Right food does not mean ex-

chosen, of the kind the body needs.
You eat SO that the body can grow
and keep strong and have energy to
do your daily work and keep warm.
All foods can be divided for convent
ence, into five groups according to
their business in the body. If some
food is taken wisely from each group
every day. the body will have the prop

food for another which has become
scarce or expensive, choose one or
more foods from the same group.
1. Vegetables and Fruit-Everyone
likes fruit, and it is good for you-so
are vegetables. Since they furnish
mineral matter, both help to build up
the bones and other parts of the body
and keep 1t in good working order.
They help to prevent constipation. All
kinds are gOod-use them, fresh, dried
or canned. Prunes, raisins, apples and
other dried fruits are good. You can
give them to the children instead Of
candy.
2. Milk, Meat, Eggs, Cheese, Fish,
Peas, Beans and Nuts-They furnish
the 'protein" whose chief business is
to supply nitrogen in the right form
to build up the body. In the young
child new muscles, new bones and all
the other parts Of the body are being
made. In the grown person these
parts are constantly wearing out and
must be replaced. Foods supplying
protein and ash are needed for this
purpose. For example, in choosing
from group two, If you have beans or
peas, and some milk, you can use them
In place Of meat.
In this group mo. p, milk is the
most important. OF course, 1t is abso-
lutely necessary for the infant, but
the growing child needs 1t, too. II the
child has 1t, he needs but little Of any
Of the other foods In this group.

Families in England That
Have Long Records in the
Service of Their Country

The town clerk Of Henley-on-Thames
has had the name or Cooper since
1777. Whether it has always been a
case of son following father is not
clear. but the law firm of Cooper has
always during that period supplied the
town clerk, London Tit-Bits remarks.
Everybody knows that the name of
Butler is one to conjure with In Devon,
but not everybody knows that Butler
has been governor"-whatever that
may be-Of Crediton cathedral church
for upward Of 20 years without a
break.
Everybody at Hitchins knows the
Hobbs family. They are the perennial
postmen Of the place. Their great
grandfather carried the letters long be-
fore penny postage was dreamed Of
and the letter-carrying business has
been done by Hobbs ever since.
Parliament can supply few such
records. When the son of Lord Derby
put up for division of Liverpool it
was said that it seemed to be taken for
granted that when the heir of Knows
ley became of age Liverpool should
send him to parliament-andi it did.

3. Cereals-This includes bread and
all such foods as oatmeal, macarOni,
rice, hominy, breakfast cereals and
cornmeal. Their most important work
Is to furnish the body with fuel,
though they also contain some pro-
tein and ash. They are the cheapest
form of fuel, so use plenty Of them.
The breakfast cereals often cost less
per pound If you cook them at home,
instead Of buying the ready-prepared
kinds. Some of the large packages,
which cost 10 or Is cents, contain only
one-fourth pound Of cereal, while you
Gilpin observer., 1918-01-17

can buy cornmeal for less per pound.
Your purse and your preference both
deserve consideration.
4. Sweets, Sugar and Sirups-Jel-
lies and preserves are fuel for the
body, too, but, in general, they are
more expensive than cereals. Use
them for flavor, but little will go a
long way. If the children eat too
much sweets, they won't have an ap-
petite for the foods they need most,
like bread and milk. Instead Of
candy, you can give them fruits, which
contain enough sugar to satisfy them
but which are not likely to spoil their
appetites.
8. Fats-Butter or other good fats,
cottonseed oil, lard, drippings, ETC., are
another kind Of fuel. People who do
hard work, especially outdoors, need
more fats than those who are not so
active. They are a relatively expen-
sive form of fuel, and besides the ami
NAL fats are scarce now and needed for
our armies and our allies, SO use them
sparingly.
These five kinds Of food-fruits
and vegetables, meats or meat substi-
tutes, cereals, sweets and fats-are all
necessary for the proper nourishment
Of the body. Remember that the cere-
al group is the one most of us depend
on for the bulk Of our food. You need
the others, too, in proper quantity.
Don't forget the five food groups. See
to 1t that you have some food from
each group every dayi

Jake Daubert Gets
His First Hit This
Year, a Home Run

HOT SPRINGS, Ark, March 21.-
After being in the training camp nearly
week and in practice game every day
without making anything resembling a
safe hit, Jake Daubert, veteran first
sacker Of the Brooklyn Dodgers, swept
the moss off his batting eve to-day and
registered his first blow.
Like all the veterans, Daubert has
been in no hurry to get started, but
to day, in the first inning of a seven
inning practice game, he came up to
bat against Heitman. the semi-pro
hurler, who is trying out with Manager
Wilbert Robinson. Frank O'Rourke
had preceded him with a base hit, and
Jake thought it was time he did some
thing. SO he cooked himself and lifted
the ball over the rightheld fence for
This blow won the game for Jimmie
Johnston's team as things finally
turned out. The score was to A. This
makes three out of four games IN the
practice series for Johnston's bunch.
Twenty Hits Made

ers. The two teams made total o.
twenty hits. among them the home rur
and six triples. They show better wit

Robinson is hopeful that they vii
make good showing against Bostor

Manager Robinson kept his regular
pitchers out of the game to-day ane

Johnston, who is an outfielder when the
club is assembled, played short to- day
and made three remarkable plays
which saved his side from defeat. Dau

throws and played in his usual gooe

Ray Declares
He Ran Extra
Lap at Garden

Joie w. Ray, the Illinois runner,
left for his home yesterday much
chagrined athlete. He declared that
an error on the part of the officials
had compelled him to run an extra
lap in the one-milc event. This in
efficiency, Ray states, deprived him
of new American indoor record
for the distance.
Ray made the charge against the
checkers. when applying for his
prize. The complaint was not made
officially to w. d. Earnest, director
of the games, but the latter over
heard Rays complaint.
The Chicago boy has grounds for
his contention, Judging from the
time announced for the final 140
yards. Ray was timed at the three
quarter-mile point in 3:04 As and
at the mile in 4:194-5. Therefore,
the timers clocked him in the wo-
fully slow time of 1:15 for the final
440-yard run. This strengthens the
possibility that Ray was forced to
run an extra circuit, especially
when it is remembered that Willie
Gordon paced Ray for one of the
last two and half laps.

Local golfers will be surprised, no

tax of $5 a year. The announcement

reasonable sum of about 81 per an

whether the yearly rent for the lock-
crs will go up pro rata with the rental
for tranpng the links, but there was
an unofficial report that there would be
slight advance to be in keeping with
war prices.
Links Need Improvement
Commissioner Hennessy could not be
found yesterday to throw any light on
the raising of the links fee, and vari-
Gus conjectures were current as to the
real reason for the advance. An old
member of The Newspaper Golf Club
had it that the new Park Commissioner
would expcnd the money in improving
the links.
''If that is the case," he said. 81 havez

greens and the general condition of

tribute something toward its upkeep.

sort of protest. These links and park
way property are for the public. and
anything in the line of extortion should
be dealt with accordingly"

Sunday Baseball
Nailed in Coffin
By Legislature
Lawson Bill Consigned to
General Orders Calendar
in the Senate

ALBANY, March 21.-After a hashv
splurge for a few minutes here TO-DAY
Sunday baseball was nailed up in its
coffin to await an unnatural death.
There appears absolutely no hope that
the victim can be resuscitated in time
to make an appearance this season, if,
indeed, it ever manages to survive tho
shock of such rude treatment
The gallant fight which opponents of
the obsolete blue laws made here Tues
day appears to have gone for naught
The Lawson bill, which would have
legalized the game on the Sabbath, in
the opinion of smart politicians, has
been tricked into the boneyard.
1t looked very rosy for the Sunday
baseball bill introduced by Senator
Robert R. Lawson, of Brooklyn, for d
short time to-day. A favorable report
was submitted by the Senate Commit
tee on Codes after the bill had under
gone slight amendment. A home rule
clause had been inserted which would
have made baseball matches lawful af-
ter 2 p. m. Sundays, unless the munici
pal authorities should adopt ordinances
against it.
Having granted this concession to
the Sunday Alliance and Lords Day
Guardians, Senator Lawson requeste
that the bill be advanced to the orde.
of final passage. Senator A. P. Brown
however, offered an objection. AS a
result of the ensuing argument, the
Lawson bill was consigned to the gen.
eral orders calendar.
Because of the late period of the
present session of the Legislature this
move, it is believed, will block action
on the Lawson bill during the present
sitting. Senator Lawson and his sup
porters are determined to press the
subject, but there is a strong feeling
that the bill, so far as the season of
1918 is concerned, has been put in the
legislative burial ground.
