Simple, clean, wholesome food Of
the right kinds fed TO children in the
proper quantities Will go further, home
economies specialists declare, toward
assuring youngsters normal health and
n sturdy constitution than any other
factor. Yet, even in this land of plen-
ty, many children are undernourishcd.
III they were all in homes where the
income was small, this would be under
standable, but surveys show that as
many cases of malnutritlOn are to be
found In well-to-dO homes as in those
which possesses less of this worlds
goods.
What is the trouble II child who
is given plenty of food is undernour-
lshed2 What more can parent do
for his child's physical welfare than
TO provide an abundance of fuod2
Those who have made study Of die
tetics declare that the kind of food that
person eats is almost as important
as the quantity, and they say the trou-
BILE with the health of many children
in this country today is not that they
are getting too little food, but rather
that they are getting too much of some
kinds and not enough of others.
Avoid one-Sided Diet.
A child between 3 and G years of
age may be considered well fed if he
has plenty of milk, bread, and other
cereal food, an egg or its equivalent
in flesh foods once day, little but
ter, small portion each of carefully
prepared fruits and vegetables, with n
small amount of sweet foods after his
appetite for other food is satisfied. II
any of these classes of food Is omitted,
his diet is likely to be one-sded.
The following bills of fare for chill
dren's meals are suggested by food
specialists of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture. The meals
are simple, easy to prepare, and suiii-
ciently varied to satisfy any normal
childs appetite. Other foods Of the
same class may be substituted, when
one wishes. for any dish in these

SCOUTING IN THE DESERT.

Some time ago a scoutnaster In
Yuma, out in the American desert
country, yelled across the continent
to national headquarters for help. He
wanted to. know how to play in the
sand. Where could scouts hike to in
a desert, and what could they do when
they got there? How can you map a
desert? How can you run of treas
ure hunt in a desert? What use is
desert, anyway? The editor of The
American Mineralogist, tremen-
dously scientific magazine, heard
Yuma, and comes back with the state
ment that his magazine has an article
on the minerals of that region. which
are famous the world over, and are in
great demand among mineral dealers.
private collectors, museums and col
leges. He also states that the botany
of that region is remarkable, and the
botanists in other parts of the United
States would value pressed specimens
of plants, photographs of these in
the native haunts and information as
to their habitats. There is no place
where scouts cannot hike with edu-
cational profit.

SCOUTS
Conducted by National Council OF the
Bow Scouts of AmerIca.l
A SCOUT is oBEDIENT

In his account of the recent trip OF
the "Jamboree" delegation of Boy
Scouts of America to Europe, James
T.. West, chief scout executive, tells
the following incident:
The 301 scout delegates and most
of their leaders were at the Interna-
tional Olympic games in Antwerp.
The arena was surrounded by thou
sands upon thousands of spectators.
Down there on the battle-ground of the
worlds champion athletes America
and England were face to face for the
tug-of-war. You know how n tug-of-
war grips your attention. From the
word go you feel through your whole
body every effort by your own team to
hold its ground and to pull its oppon-
ent. Think of witnessing world
championship tug-of-war b betw ee n
Americans and Englishmen before n
vast audience in which many nations
were represented. Would you get up
and leave your seat for million dol
lars? Yet, at the very moment that
the Americans dug In their heels, glued
themselves to the rope, filed their
lungs and tensed their muscles to pull
England from her ground. the jam
boree' scouts rose, faced about, and
marched from the scene.
"This is how 1t happened: While
the delegation was at the arena, the
officials were invited to meet King AL
bert of Belgium, who was preparing to
come to the games. We left with Col.
Gignilliat, who had command of our
delegation, for that purpose and We're
advised that the King would be great
ly pleased to have the American boy
scouts act as a guard of honor on his
way to the arena. We were requested
! to have the boys in readiness at once.
| Accordingly Col. Gignillilt returned to
the arena and Just as the American
team of athletes dug in their heels to
pull the English team from its posi-
tlon that well-known command that
had held our delegation through
hundred difficult situations. AT
| tention l brought them sharply out
of their trance of excitement and call
ed into play once more that splendid
spirit of loyalty and service which
won for the Boy Scouts of America
the high compliments wherever they
went in Europe"

CEREAL FOOD is ECONOMICAL
One Variety or Another Forms Large
Part of Almost Every Whole
some and Frugal Diet.

Cereal food of one kind or another
forms large part Of almost every
wholesome and economical diet. As
general rule, the greater the part
played by cereals the cheaper the diet.
Up to Il certain point one may cut
down the quantity of meat, eggs, but
ter, sugar, fruits and vegetables used
and substitute cereal foods, but food
specialists in the United States De
partment OF Agriculture say there is
a limit beyond which this cannot be
safely done.
\ sample days ration for family
of father. mother and three young
children in which cereals are used as
freely as is considered wise, contains
about four and one-half pounds Of
bread, or its equivalent in variety Of
cereal foods; two quarts of milk, one
and one-fourth pounds of medium-fat
meat. ten ounces of butter or other
fat, one-half pound of sugar, and four
or five pounds of fruits and vegetables.
In this diet the cereal foods supply
about one-half of the protein.

and economy. 1t is modest in its ar
rangement, not ut all freakish or un-
usual and consequently not requiring
special fittings which invariably mean
increased expense. 1t fills all the re-
quirements of the family of moderate
means and above all is real home.
The owner is independent of any land
lord who may see fit to raise the rent
frequently and out of reason, know
ing that the tenant will stay rather
than take chance of seeking new
quarters in the face of the present
shortage. Instead of paying rent every
month, the owner can insure himself
permanent home by paying that
same money on home of this type.
Rent receipts are not recognized as
collateral by any bank, but II home is
tangible security that can be used at
any time Many II man. father of
family, who has been paying rent for
years has only recently found how
foolish he has been, and lie found that
out because he purchased Il home and
learned its real benefits.

COURT RUN BY BOY SCOUTS.

In Bartlesville, Okla, they have n
boy scout cabinet, composed of three
scouts from each troop in the city, no
one of whom is eligible to serve on
the cabinet if he holds any Office in
his own troop. There are seven troops
in Bartlesville so there are twenty
one boys in the cabinet.
The function of the cabinet is two
fold, administrative and disciplinary.
1t plans scouting activities for the
whole district, with the cooperation
of the scout executive, and 1t meets
once Il month to try cases of miscon-
duct among scouts, If any such case
comes up. The scout summoned be-
fore the cabinet must bring with him
statement of all the details of the
scout is temporarily dismissed while
the cabinet goes over the statement
and decides what form of punishment
they wish to recommend to the scout
master.
The scoutmaster need not necessarl-
ly follow the recommendation, but he
usually does. Thus the boy is judged
and sentenced not by superior, but
by group of his peers, most of whom
are members of troops other than his
own and consequently not likely to be
biased in judgment. The scout execu-
tive reports that Ceases" are happily
