MISS Emma Blades, principal of
our school had a narrow escape from
a serious accident last Thursday af-
ter school. While walking up Main
street between the old postofice and
Clements store, she was run into by
a car driven by Miss Cox, near town.
Fortunately Miss Blades had presence
of mind to hold on to the fender, and
while she has many bruises and
sprains, no bones were broken. Miss
Blades is dearly loved by her pupils,
and is also a great church worker. Her
many friends hope to see her out sOon.

be no strike and if it should come a
number will go out with the brother

job. Clayton being distinctly rail

largely composed of railroad men who

Those Golden : Eggs

TGGS are cheap and plentiful IN
our markets just now and one
OF the approved foods to re.
place meat during Lent. Therefore
the housewife should avail herself
widely Of them, understand their
real nutritive values, and particu-
larry be able to serve them In a
large variety Of appetizing ways.
Eggs are often called complete
food" and the housewife should
understand that they can com.
pletely replace meat in the diet.
For example, a person having two
eggs would certainly need no meat
or other protein food at that meal.
Also IL a mea: is served a. the main
course it is dietetically wrong to
serve a dessert like a custard pie
or something else rich with eggs.
And yet many fail to understand
this and serve unbalanced meals
and those which are unnecessarily
expensive.
For the child up 10 six years Of
age eggs are preferable to meat as
a protein or muscle food. No meat
is as good for a small child as a
poached, soft-boiled or "coddled"
egg. Even a child of three may
have one such egg per day. The
active boy or growing girl needs q
quantity of eggs in the diet, even
in addition to meat.
The adult who is engaged in man.
ual and outdoor work can also, as
the phrase goes, handle" eggs in
quantity. But the sedentary or in
active adult must beware Of too
many eggs.
1t is q mistake, and one often
made by Americans, to think of
eggs only as q breakfast or lunch
con food, whereas the European
esteems them highly as dinner
dish. Unfortunately, also. we are
not adept at making the most per.
