2 OUNCES OF BREAD
IS Legal PORTION
Food Administration Fixes Amount
Restaurants May Serve.

Two ounces of loaf bread or two
one-ounce rolls. That constitutes a
portion under a new ruling Of the
United States Food Administration.
And public eating places may serve
only one portion.
This ruling applies to wheat breads.
OF corn. oatmeal, rice or other wheat
substitute breads you may have four
ounces. provided you do not order
more than one variety. But, for lin
stance. IL you order cornmeal bread
and oatmeal cakes you can only get
two ounces altogether.
This may seem a little confusing,
but it's rs clear as crystal when you
underst:t d IL. The Food Administra-
ton says that IL a diner orders sew
eral varieties of bread ne may nib
bic" on them all and eat perhaps only
one piece; OF. that he may eat the whole
collection, the variety Of which would
act as Spur to his appetite land

everything ia the restaurant).
So next time you go into a dining
car or restaurant decide quickly
whether it's two ounces of regular
bread. four ounces Of cornbread, or
oatmeal bread or rice bread. or two
ounces Of assorted substitutes.
And speaking Of causes and effects,
though the Food Administration does
not mention 1t, every one knows that
mental exertion whets the appetite
considerably. and after the racking
experience of trying to decide whether
it's best to fiji up on corn or really
