TRUDA's JEALOUSY AROUSED

'I declare. mother, just saw Ilona
gallop3ng down the Main street. with
Jimmie Werburton full tilt after
her. You ought to keep an eye on
her-and explain that such things
are not done here" said Truda Cam
eron, with a pout, as she enterer the
house after dancing and singing les
sons the next afternoon.
'Ilona, with Jimmie? Are you
sure, dar1.ng?'' asked her mother,
looking up quickly from her embroid-
cry work. "Why, that's funny. Ilona
told me she was not going to ride
this afternoon. Going for walk, I
think she said, and maybe to call on
some of the girls here

Not much good explaining to a.

we are used to, and SO relfgiously OBJ

CALORIES

Recently while dining I could not
help but hear the following CONVEX
sation which took place at the table
next to mine. The characters were a
plump dame, a sweet little round cid
erly Jewish woman, a breezy movie
actress and a lean man. You can
place them.
mo thanks, I won't take cream.
Too many Galleries. and I haven't
many left for my days portion
Whats all this talk 1 hear about
calories? Everybody seems to be re-
ducing on 'em. Who invented them
anyway"
"oh. I should to get thin so like.
Do you suppose they are Kosher?"
Lead me to EN-! 7 got to slim
down for my next part. What kind
of germs are they?'"
This conversation is a, fair sample
of the universal lack of any tunoa-
mental knowledge of dietetfcs.
Who invented Galleries? The plump
lady informed her companions that
I did! But I have to disclaim the
honor. I have undoubtedly popular
lied them, but I did not invent EN-,
I am sorry to say.
A CALORIE is the unit of measure
of heat, and of the fuel or energy
value of foods. (Not heat, not food.
simply the unit to measure them by,
just as a yard is the unit of measur-
ing the length of dry goods and the
pint the unit, almost obsolete, the
measure of wet goods.)
Technical1y,a calorie is that amount
of heat necessary to raise one pound
Of water four degrees F'arenheit. or
one kt1ogram one degree Centigrade.
This is known as the large calorie and
is the one used in dietetics. The
small calorie is 1900 of the large.
Briefly:
This is the way it is determined.
An apparatus known as the bomb
calorimeter has two chambers. the in
ner shaped like a bomb-hence the
name-and an outer, tightly closed,
which is filled with a known quantity
of water. The food, the energy value
of which is to be determined, is p1ac-
ed in the inner chamber in an atmos-
phere of pure oxygen, ignited by an
electric spark and burned.

everything utilized by them-air, wa
