discriminate food substitution In
childhood are startllng' shown
abroad as result Of the war, and are
beginning to be evident In our own
great cities" And milk has no sub
stltute in the diet of the child" These
and other unqualified statements of
the Importance Of guarding the milk
supply to prevent the physical deter
ioration Of American children during
the war are scattered through the lat
est report issued BY the Childrens Blu
reau of the U. s. Department of Labor
and entitled milk, the Indispensable
Food for Children"
This report, with its striking fig
ures showing decrease In the
amount which is finding its way to
the children in poor homes, has spe-
cial interest in connection with the
campaign to save 100000 lives of ba-
bies and little children during the sec
ond year of the war. 1t not only en-
phasizes the fact that children who
are deprived of milk can not thrive
properly, but 1t analyses the changes
in the production and export of dairy
products during the war and shows
the necessity of public action.
"The nourishments of our children
Is the first duty of the Nation. Since
milk and milk products are vital ne
cessity for children, for nursing moth
ers, and for the sick and wounded, the
public should be made to realize that
the children's need for dairy products
should be assured"
England and Italy have regulated
the sale of cream and curtailed the
use of butter, in order that their child
population might receive the more
adequate and economical nOurish-
ment offered by whole milk. Ger
many, early in the war, provided that
the adult civilian population might
have milk only after the needs of chill
dren, mothers, invalids, and the army
we're met.
The report discusses the various
forms in which cows milk may be
used for children For the young
baby, it says, there is nothing so good
as mothers milk.
"Never before in the history of civil
lization has it been so urgent mat
ter that every child should have breast
milk for as long a time as possible, in
order that every child that survives
birth may have the best chance for
life and health"
But for children under 2 other than
those breast fed, and for older chill
dren, the report states that cows milk
is an absolute necessity If disease and
death are to be kept within bounds
and if the coming generation is to sur
vive and to sustain the national stan
dards. Children first should be part
of the national food slogan
at is the duty now of every indivi-
dual community to see that its chill
dren have milk of good quality and
in sufficient amount to assure theiI
normal development. To do this the
price of milk must be controlled oil
fixed, and the milk supply to infants
and children carefully safeguarded
The malnutrition of our children was
even before 1914 serious nationa
problem and one demanding urgent
attention. Poverty and Ignorance Of
dietary essentials have been ever
present factors in the malnutrition o.
the young, and war conditions can mo-
fail to increase the gravity of the sit
uation and the difficulties of maintain
ing the health Of the Nation"

DAVIS THEATRE

For genuine wholesome comedy, pep and vinegar, A Nine O'Clock Tovn, starring Charles Ray. which was pre- sented at the Davis theatre Thurs day, proved itself one of the best pho toplays shown at that popular play house in many months. While In a sense it is burlesque on the business methods of the small town merchant, it shows what may happen when new life, and city ideas are infused into the business organization. Pretty lane Novak is the leading woman. She is "all to the good" Dorcas Matthews is beautiful corset model and Cath erine Young wicked vampire. Otto Hoffman. and Gertrude Claire are ex- cellent in elderly roles. The comedy
 element is amazingly funny. The types of small town characters, occa sionally exaggerated, always well act ed, are joy forever. Ray is thor
 oughly at home in his role. It is a
 great picture for these days heavy with the weight of the world tragedy "a picture to make one forget sor- row and laugh with genuine satisfac- l tion.
 The second feature on the bill is William Desmond Tn Heil's End, g story of the East Side.
