University OF North Dakota this
morning was addressedsbys Dr. Charles
r. King. professor OF physiology, AZ
the university. His subject was Sci
ontific Nutrition" and DR.. King
handled il in a manner that was g!
once popular, witty; Instructive and
scientific. DIR. EarlefJ j. Babcock, act
ing president. of the university, presid-
ed and read the third chapters Of
Proverbs The special music ;ot the
morning was a string quartet rendi-

DIR. King spoke in brief as follows:
Man is PERHAPS the most carniver-
Gus OF all animals. The. diet ;of the
majority of humanity is determined
largely by two factors, the supply
both as to quantity and variety avail
able and-the ability to. purchase. Rich
and poor go to the two extremes in
the matter OF eating in normal times.
but now the wal Is making It neces-
ra,y tn have certain regulations OF
diet. The changes as directed, by the
government are based on the princis
pies of scientific nutrition. and the
plans of the great world democracy
must have a large place for the con
sideration of these principles. The
war is making people. more normal.
Science IL New.
1.-THE science of nutrition as we
know itsis a little over 100 years old
anda'h largely to be credited to a
s%Frenchman for it's discovery. 1t is
based ON the discovery that the heat
Of the living body is derived from
oxidation or burning of foodstuffs. a
food must contain materials which
serve as sources of energy and can
enter into the processes OF repair and
growth. The factor Of palatability
must not be overlooked. The appetite
must determine the amount Of food
necessary although the amount OF
body surfaces exposed, amount of en-
iety 81 the food must be taken into
consideration. pa. ,
THE substitutes for wheat. the use
Of which are urged. by. the govern
ment, will he found to be beneficial.
These substitutes can not only he
manufactured cheaper than the re-
fined flour but they will he better for
the people. as thew contain more val
uahle nutrients. We are more apt to
suffer from fat deficiency than from
any other shortage especially in the
feeding of children. since the growth
promoting substances are absent from
some of the fat substitutes. Lard
substitute prepared from vegetable
oil are equal to lard but cannot take
the place OF butter" = /.
At the close Of Dr.. Kings address
lDr. Babcock urged. upon the faculty
and students present the more careful
observation OF. the food regulations
and the more careful selection OF
food. The government has asked that
the students both men and women
make q more careful study of. the
value Of foods. and DR.. Babcock urged
that this be done. and. that TIE idea
