(By Mrs. n. w. Taylor, home dem
onstration agent, Orange County,
Girls club work in Orange county
Florida, is developing strong com
munity spirit, future leaders and good

MALNuTRITIoN AND
PHYSICAL uNFITNESS

There is striking similarity be-
tween the percentage of men rejected
as physically unfit for service in our
army Of the recent world war and of
the percentage of American children
suffering from malnutrition. Each
totals third in its respective field.
Is there any relation between the
two?
Malnutrition is a covert i'll. It breaks
down bodily resistance, lowers vitality
and lessons efficiency. 1t opens the
way for disease. Any abundance of
milk and plenty of fresh fruit and
vegetables, would materially raise the
standard Of efficiency among our citi-
zenry.
Milk, fruits and vegetables can be
produced at a minimum cost in Flor
ida. Let's have them, and let's make
100 percent physically fit" our goal
in Florida. 1t is up to you and to me-

| (By Miss Ruby McDavid, Home Dem
onstration Agent Gadsden County,
Nellie Parker Is a member of the
home demonstration club of Hardaway,
Gadsden county. This is her second
year in this work.
Last year she belonged to the sew
ing club, or, / should say, she was the
, sewing club, for no other girl in that
community did sewing. Every require
ment was met and, so good was her
work, she was awarded first prize last
fall in contest with many other girls
OF the county. This entitled her to a
two-weeks short course at the state
college, Tallahassee.
Last winter her bedroom set was
sent to the state fair in Jacksonville,
and she won first prize, SIS. This has
been placed in the bank as her 60
to-College" money, and will bear in
terest until she uses it.
This year Nellie has repainted the
furniture in her bedroom, revarnished
the picture frames, made some box
furniture and dyed curtains to match
the other furnishings. She is going
to cut larger windows for the room.
The house was built many years ago
and the windows are too small to give
the light and ventilation now consid-
cred 80 essential for health.
Other members of NelGe's family
have been benefited. One brother be-
longs to the pig club and won a trip
to the short course for boys at Gaines
vile. Another brother belongs to the
poultry club. Her mother is making
improvements in her kitchen.
A member of the sewing and can
ming clubs this year, she is making
good in both. The dry weather has
hurt her plot but she says, If only
one plant lives and grows. she is go
ing to keep her records and complete
the years work. Such determination
Will surely win.
