parties and drive yourself all day rough trails be-
cause you know that free outdoor life is what you
were really made for. At night you may be too tired
to sleep Soundly, but you console yourself with the
thought that it's all for your best good Nevertheless,
when the vacation is your of strength

The same mistake of OVERRIDING good thing is
made by the active person who seeks quiet vaca-

HOUSING NEED ENDED

Even While the building boom throughout the coun-
try continues the Department of Labor finds that the
housing shortage is ended AS regards homes, at
least, further building might be expected hencefort
only in the amount required for normal replacement
Further construction the scale of the last few
years, the department warns, will mean overproduc-
ton with lower prices and depression in the building
industry.
The building may let up now; and it may not. The
question arises what is normal in housing accommo-
dations? There many evidences that the Ame-
rlcan people have risen to Standards If So here
after they will require better homes and more housing
space than ever before per unit of production They
may also require requirements more frequently. 1t
may prove to be almost hard to saturate" the mar

PIE AS NOURI.SHINENT

nutrition expert finds that pie is real food
He proves on rats. Pefed thrive on pie better
than rats led on cereals and vegetables. And deti-
tans and biologists say that what is good for rats is
usually good for human beings
Most people may not consider this news Few
Americans at any rate, will be surprised to learn
that when they pie they are eating food II is no
accident and no casual whm of taste that has long
made pie one of the fundamental articles of diet in
this country. And when New Englanders have insist
ed pie for breakfast as they have done for genera
tlons they have known what they were doing
The expert referred to says the only trouble about
ordinary peeating is that it is eaten as dessert at
the end of meal which has already provided enough
nourishment To that practice he traces digestive
objections to pie. His idea is that the pie should be
eaten first. Then there will be excess of food and
no question of digestiblity. The only trouble about
TINS suggestion is that normal American who starts
meal with pie won't want anything else
