Held Out by Models at Ma
tional Museum.

II food prices soar out Of reach, hope
still remains. There has been prepar-
\ ed for the section of foods. at the Ma
tional Museum. an exhibit of models
=of sixty-seven ordinary articles of diet,
which can be seen in the north hall
of the industrial arts building on the
south side Of the Mall
Each model represents, in approx
mately correct household measures, a
quantity of food producing a heat
value of 100 calories. So far as its
heat-producing value goes. each speci-
men is exactly the equivalent of every
other specimen shown in the series
The exhibit presents an object les
son in that IL shows. at q glance, the
relative heat value of the differen,
articles of food. in q form easily COM
pretended by every one. without the
necessity of comparing or interpreting
the figures representing the chemical
analysis. 1t is declared.
Students of household economics have
long used the calorie as a stadard uni,
for measuring the heat-producing
value of foods.
It is planned to supplement this ex.
hibit with others which will show the
ordinary articles of food arranged ir
- classes according to their compost
