THE BLUES

Many a fit of the blues has been caused by a pound of
fudge!' Away across the years comes that remark of the Dean
IN our school, as he talked one morning in chapel. l don't
know what else he said, probably much more than was learned
and worthler of remembering. But that sentence has stuck.
The beloved old Dean was right.
1t is strange that ordinarily sensible women have so little
sense IN the matter of eating candy. 1t is often an obsession.
A box of it tucked away in a bureau drawer is secretly flched
from by its grown-up, feminine owner until there is nothing
left but the aftereffects.
Watch out for the aft~er-efects next time when you have
been as greedy as a child about candy. Of course you don't
want any dinner, your family think you are i'll (Which makes
you think there is something wrong with you), and the next
morning your digestive apparatus has gone on a strike, and
you have a wretched headache! Naturally the ''blues' follow.
Often they come without any warning headache or any diges-
tive upset that is severe enough to make you ashamed Of having
been piggish about the candy. You are just '"blue,' - that's all,
and you DOM understand it.
In certain summer camps that | know, for either boys
or girls, there is a definite allowance of candy permitted after
Eneals. No more than the allowance. Do you know why that is
done? Because the first aim of the good summer camp is to
keep children healthy. They can't be kept healthy if they
have too much sweet stuff. Now it is a matter of fact that
growing children can digest all sorts of monstrosities that
grown-ups can't take care of at all, chiefly because growing
children are much more giving to vigorous bodily exercise,
which works off the rubbish that has been eaten. Whereas
and the result is that his system gets overloaded with poison
ons. He gets "auto-intoxicated." Blues are only a mild re-
suit of such a state! Il could paint the other effects in glazing
colors)
But it's the blues that concern us. 1t we find ourselves
addicted to frequent fits of the blues, let's find out what does
it. 1t is always safe to start out with the old, old question,
t.What have you been eating?'' The next question should be
ssWhen have you been eating?'
Three squares a day, (not too square,, or little pecky
meals at mealtime, and nibblng all the morning and all the
afternoon? The latter habit is a vicious one that is enough
to discourage any perfectly wellintentioned digestion.
Isolate your blues-germ, moody creature, and II It's the
Candy-BIues you know just what to do the next time you're
out shopping. Forget that box OF candy! 4

CHILDREN WEIGHED
AS NUTRITION WORK STARTS

sils, loss Of sleep, faulty foods, eating
Of meats and rich desserts rather
than vegetables and milk and lack Of
home control. One of the essentials
in conducting undernourished class
es is a complete medical examination
and a home visiting and follow-work
among the parents in order to have
the faults corrected.
A way to raise money to employ a
nutrition worker and q medical ex-
aminer is another of the problems
that confronts the council. Tk.is mat
ter VIII have to be gone into thor
oughly as the work of feeding the
children progresses. 1t is expected
that the results obtained in Schools
8 and z will be so satisfactory that
the nutrition FORK will become a
regular routine in the schools of this
city and result in a more perfect
scholar both physically and mentally,
1t has been suggested that persons
interested in nutrition work attend
the institution for training nutrition
workers to be held in Newark from
March 5 to II. Among those who
have been spoken of as attending the
institution are school nurses, physi-
cal directors, domestic science teach
ers and kindergarten teachers. The
question of providing ways and
means of sending these people to the
institute has been answered by a
suggestion that an entertainment
might be held to obtain the neces-
sary funds to finance the trips to the
institute.
At the next meeting Of the council,
which is scheduled to be held on
February % at 4 o'clock, other mat
tiers in connection with the work will
be discussed and probably a definite
programa adopted.

Yesterday saw the beginning of
the realization of a dream Of the
Woman's Club that for q time SEEM
ed to be a vision that would not
materialize. For more than a month
the club, through Mrs. Leo COLDER
ger, acting as a committee, has peen
endeavoring to have the schools Of
the city adopt nutrition work. In
bringing the work to the attention
of the Board of Education visits
were made to various schools about
the state where nutrition work Is an
established fact and the success OF
the system shown at length.
Mrs. Goldberger herself appeared
before the Board Of Education and
told of the success of the work in
the Newark, Woodbridge and New
Brunswick schools ana urged the
Board of Education to adopt sae
work in the interest of having well
nourisaed and attentive children in
the schools of the city. Tho board
took the matter under advisement
and yesterday i'll School No. 8 the
work was actually begun.
OF course, it will probably be sew
eral days yet before the luncheon
of milk and crackers is supple the
many children who it is anticipated
will need this additional food to
build up perfect bodies, but before
the actual feeding of the children is
begun, much preliminary work is
necessary. Yesterday in School No.
8, this preliminary work, consisting
for the most part in weighing and
charting the conditions of the chill
dren, was begun. During the day.
under the direction OF Mrs. Gold
berger and Mark r. Letter. the prin-
cipal Of the school, the work Of
Weighing the children was done by
the school nurse, Miss Catherine
CROSBY. Miss Jane ]. Packard. ex-
ecutive secretary OF the Middlesex

Scholars OF School No. z, will he

this work is completed it is likely
that the preliminary work will have
been completed to such a degree
that the distribution of the milk and
crackers can begin.
Although the nutrition work was
originally fostered by the Woman's
Club, at the present time it is under
the direction of the Perth Amboy
Council, with Mrs. Gold
berger as chat man. The duties of
this organization will be 70 promote

the giving OF the milk and crackers

Steaks

Probably most housekeepers asked

This is due partly to the ease with
which steak is prepared. partly TO
the fact that many people, especial

dishes.
