later on. Many childhood ills are
traceable directly to malnutrition.
High school students especially
need a variety in foods for at this
age their growth Is rapid. The pro-
TEN or building food should be
abundant for high school boys and
girls. When they buy their luncheons,
high school pupils are apt to display
a preference for chocolate sodas,
cream puffs and candy. An appetizing
luncheon put up at home is much
to be preferred to the sort the boy or
girl might obtain at the corner store
near the school.
Meat is all right for the school
luncheon but 1t should be put up In
tempting form. If sliced thin it is
more appetizing in sandwiches than
If in thick pieces. Beverages or soup
may be carried in thermos bottles
but the bottles must be carefully
washed and aired daily after using.
Milk is recommended for an impor-
tant place in the boys or girls diet be-
cause of its %prOteins, minerals, phos-
phorus and calcium, necessary for the
development of the body and in the
case of calcium and phosphorus for
the building of bone and teeth. Evap-
grated milk has come into favor as a
health builder for children as we'll
as adults because by removal of go
per cent of the water it is rendered
more than twice as rich in food value
as ordinary milk and by a process
called h~omogenizing more digestible
than bottled market milk.
Crisp lettuce and celery, carefully
washed and dried, may be so wrapped
in oil paper that they will be fresh
and in good condition at lunch time.
Lettuce should not be used in sand
witches for wilted lettuce is almost in
digestible.

ZAnI'S HISTORY TYPICAL
armenian Orphan Adopted by DR.. and
Mrs. Gannaway of Seattle.

Zadi Pachalian Gannawav, once an
Armenian orphan, but now adopted by
her American ~rescuers, DR.. and Mrs.
Chas. r. Gannaway, of Seattle, "gath'
cred up in her wasted diseased body
the sorrows of all Armenia" at the
age of n year.
"Zadi's history is typical of thous-
ands of Near East orphans" stated
Mrs. Gannaway on a recent tour of
the Northwest. Driven with her moth
er into exile, she was suffering with
measles, pneumonia, dysentery and
other Near East diseases when we
found her. The marvellous vitality of
the children of the Near East is
shown in Zadi's gallant and success
full fight for life. There were thous-
ands as attractive as Zadi in a multi
tude numbering over eight thousand
to whom DR.. Gannaway ministered in
the Near East. A mental test Of Zadi
at the Cheney, Washington, Normal
School, showed the mind of a child of
eight at the age of four and a half.

Tanguay's face, removed sixty-four
pounds of adipose tissue from Truly
Shattuck in one operation, straight
ened the cross eyes of the leading
lady of Singers midgets, and has per

would be driven out Of business in
a few weeks if all the women of
America would drink their quart of
milk a day.
Babies and children have COM
plexions of angels for the reason that
they are fed largely on milk. Milk
used externally or internally is a
beautifier. Anna Held, l believe, was
the HESI dClIcSS WIN duOpleQ lnt uIllh
bath. While this was a novelty at
the time, and her press agent u n
doubtedly, made the most of it, the
principle in itself was sound. But a
beauty secret of even more value is
the daily quart of mink taken as a
part Of the diet.
''The milk-fed girl is easily dis
tinguished by the velvety texture and
the healthy color Of her skin. Milk
is a wonderful body builder, because
it contains every structural element.
1t is, in a way, an elixir Of life.
authorities agree that milk is the
most nearly perfect food but 1t Is an
extremely delicate one as well. Heat
sufficient to kill all bacteria is the
essential of absolutely pure and
sterile milk. One of the advantages
Of evaporated milk, which is simply
fresh cows milk with sixty per cent
of the water removed, is that 1t is
entirely sterile and is more easily as
simulated than ordinary market milk.
milk is mentioned %forty-seven times
in the Bible. The Promised Land of
the Israelites was said to flow with
milk and honey and Ovid graded
milk as second only to nectar, the
drink of the gods"

ION the foundation of 200, 900 chill
dren, many of them above the average
in mentality, America has been build
ing for ten years for the future. Many
years of study of the children of the
Near East, in which I have come
greatly to admire their independence
and desire to help themselves, make
me believe that America never did a
greater piece of work than when she
reached out and gathered up these
thousands of orphan waits. It is not
unreasonable to believe that in Ameri-
can care today in the Near East are
the men and women who twenty years
from now will be shaping the future
of that turbulent land. America must
continue for only the few a neces-
sary to complete the task
Golden Rule Sunday, December 6,
will be Americas answer to thousands
of children like Zadi. Full informa-
tion about the day, including sugges-
tive menus, may be had on application
to the Near East Relief.
