the butter substitutes may be used. II
the diet Is lacking In milk, then It is
highly important that butter-good, pure
dairy butter--shall be used In the chill
dren's diet.
Since the present war is being waged
chiefly for the benefit OF future genera
tions. II would be very unwise to handi-
cap our children by impoverishing their
diet. Since the Drawn and brain OF
manhood Is dependent very largely upon
the physique gained In childhood, II
therefore behooves our women'g clubs
and other organizations to make In
vestigations to determine whether or
not the children OF their community are
securing the necessary amount OF milk
or other wholesome foods.
