Choose Your Food Wisely
u. S. Food Administration

Gu. S. Food Administration
Study these five food groups. Every
food you eat may be put into one of
these groups. Each group serves a
special purpose in nourishing your
body. You should choose some food
from each group daily.
/ /. Vegetables and fruits.
2. Milk, eggs, fish, meat, cheese,
beans, peas, peanuts.
| 8. Cereals-Corn meal, Oatmeal,
rice, bread, etc.
4. Sugar, ,sirups, jelly, honey, etc.
5. Fats-Butter, margarine, cot
tonseed oil, olive oil, drippings, suet.
You can exchange. one foods for an
other in the same group. For exam
pie, oatmeal, may be used instead Of
wheat, and eggs, or sometimes beans,
instead of meat; but oatmeal can not
be used instead of milk. Use both oat-
meal and milk.
You need some food from each
group every day-don't skip any.
Here are the Reasons Why You Need
the Five Groups
Fruits and vegetables furnish some
of the material from which the body
| is made and keep its many parts work
| ing smoothly. They help prevent con-
stipation which gives you headaches
and makes you stupid. The kinds you
choose deepnd upon the season, but
remember that the cheaper ones arc
often as valuable as the more expen-
sive.
Milk, eggs, fish, meat, peas, beans.
These help build up the growing body
and renew used-up parts. That is their
main business. Dried peas and beans
make good dishes to use in place of
meat part of the time, but don't leave
out the other foods entirely. Milk is
the most important. Buy at least a
pint a day for every member of your
family. No other food can take its
place for children. Save on meat if
you must, but don't skimp on milk.
Cereals: Bread and breakfast foods.
These foods act as fuel to let you do
your work, must as the gasoline
burning in an automobile engine
makes the car go. This you can think
of as their chief business. And they
are usually your cheapest fuel. Be
sides, they give your body some build
| ing material.
Don't think that wheat bread is the
only kind of cereal food. The govern
ment asks us to save wheat to send
abroad to our soldiers and the Allies
Let the north try the southern corn
bread and the south the oatmeal of the
north. Half the fun of cooking is il.
trying new things. An oatmeal pud-
ding is delicious.
\ Sugar and sirups are fuel, too, and
they give flavor to other foods. They
are valuable food, but many people
| eat more of them than they need
Sweet fruits, of course, contain much
sugar and are better for the children
than candy.
Fat is fuel. Some is needed espe-
cially by Woodworking people Re
member that expensive fats are nc
better fuel than cheap ones. Use
drippings. Don't let the butcher keep
the trimmings from your meat. They
belong to you. Children need some but
ter fat. Give it to them in plenty OF
whole milk or in butter.

Sense of Taste.

The principal seat of the sense or
taste is the mucous membrance of the
tongue, in which dissection reveals a
cults or chorion, papillary structure,
and an epithelium. The cults is tough,
but thinner and less dense than in
most parts of the cutaneous surface,
and receives the insertions of the in
trinsic muscles of the tongue. The
papiilary structure differs from that OF
he skin in not being concealed under
the epithelium, but in projecting from
the surface like the Will of the diges-
tive canal, and it thus gives to the
tongue it's we'll known roughneSs. The
epithelium is of the Scaly variety, as
on the skin, but is much thinner on
the tongue than on the skin. 1t is
most dense about the middle Of the
upper surface of the tongue, and it is
here that, in disordered digestion,
there is the chief accumulation of fur.
which, in reality, is simply depraved
and Over-abundant formation of cpl
thelium. The papillae on the surface
of the tongue are either simple or COM
pound. The former, which closely
resemble those on the skin, are scat
tered over the whole surface of the
tongue in parts where the others do
not exist, and they likewise partici-
pate in the formation Of the compound
papillae.

SAVAGE AND HIS SHIELD
Writer Explains Why Men Button
Their Clothing With the Right
Hand.

A popular writer who is particularly
fond of giving his readers diluted SCI
ence, in sugared pellets, says that men
button their clothing with the right
hand because their prehistoric ances-
tors used to carry shields on their left
arms. To quote his own words:
primitive man had a shield on his
left arm to protect the heart side from
attack. That left his right hand free
to do the buttoning."
This is interesting and highly imag-
NATIVE, but is it true? Did primitive
man wear shirts and collars, vests and
coats, that buttoned up at all? And
did he know that his heart was more
| important to guard than his lungs or
his liver? Is there any real evidence
that he was concerned about the rela-
tive value of his internal organs, when
he fashioned his shield? Did he carry
his shield on his left arm to protect
| his heart or was it to leave his right
arm, apparently always the stronger,
in the majority of individuals, free to
WELD sword or spear, or a stone
hammer or knobbed war club, farther
back toward the beginning of mans
| long story on this battered old planet?
Beyond question, he wanted his
| most efficient hand and arm free TO
use his weapons, but is it certain or
even probable that he had a strong
preference for being stabbed in the
right side, if he must needs be pune
| tured at all? Surely the weapon OF
| attack always dominated the means OF
defense. The knife counted more
than the shield. The spear controlled
the use Of hands and arms more than
any buckler ever did.
| Buttons are placed for the convent
ence of the right hand, not because the
left hand was kept busy, carrying
shield, in the childhood of the human
race, but because the right hand was
usually the stronger and more skillful
then, just as it is now.

ARRANGE FOR SELF-DEFENSE
Scandinavian Countries Find Them
selves in Precapious Situation
Because of the War.

The recent meeting of the three
kings of the Scandinavian countries,
so unexpected and so unusual, was
practically a meeting in Self-defense,
forced on them by the precarlous
situation in which the war has
placed their countries, writes Maurice
Francis Egan in the Yale Review.
Sweden had prided herself on her mil
itarism copied from the German sys-
tenn. Norway relied on its coast line,
its shipping, it's fisheries and the firm
belief that it was practically indie
pendent of the world, with an assured
future made by its own brains and its
natural resources. Denmark, never
free from the fear Of the German Co
lossus. believed that England and Rus
STA might save her from extinction at
the crucial moment; and the prepon-
derance of American opinion at the va
riouS Hague conferences made her
hope that the moral force of our opin-
ion might prevent her national extinc-
ton. These hopes are gone. Den
mark fed England, she exported GER
tain products to Germany, she had
made herself the foremost scientific
agricultural nation of the world, she
was the freest, she was working out
the ideals of her national life without
desiring to acquire territory or to in
fringe on the rights of others; but the
moment the United States entered the
war she and the other Scandinavian
nations gave up hope of any protec-
ton or help, and they have now deter
mined to band together in an indcs-
trial. economic union. The world has
deserted them and they have deter
mined to do their best to become in
| dependent Of the world.

Every Woman Wants
Canned Ostrich Eaqs.

Signs reading "Newly canned ostrich
eggs for sale" may soon meet the eyes
of the housewife looking into the win
dows of grocery stores in London, says
the Popular Science Monthly. This
statement is based on the fact that
ostrich eggs are being packed expert
mentally in South America for ship
ment to England in liquid form. One
ostrich egg is equal to about two
dozen hens eggs. If the canning of
these eggs proves successful, it will
mean the salvation of the ostrich
growing industry as result of the
war. 1t will take large family to
consume one breakfast egg.

Hint on Physical Culture.

Merely to hear the sound of music
gives one the dancing impulse-an in.
clination to move the feet or the hands
or the body in time with the rhythm
of the music. To make your exercise
attractive, therefore, start your music
first and then/as you feel the swing
of it you will find pleasure in going
through your exercises. Make it a
part of your daily schedule. You can
either follow the practice Of taking
ordinary, standard exercises to the
accompaniment of music or you can
do special dancing movements. All
dancing movements partake of the
character of exercise.-Carl E. VIII
