Women Who Have Interesting Tasks
in Government Service
BY ALICE ROGERS HAGER

result that the end sought is being
achieved. but that the process was
almost painless. DR.. Laura Nc
Laughlin, nutrition chemist with the
bureau, was assigned the subject of
the calcium metabolism Of spinach"
for special investigation. Which
means that she was to find out exactly
how much lime is left behind in the
body for the use of the tissues after
a given amount Of spinach had been
eaten.
DR.. Mclaughlin chose eight women
to help her, all but one workers in
the bureau, and for ~ days they con
centrated their alimentary attention
on what DR.. Mclaughlin served them
Each item of food had to be thorough
ly analyZed so the diet list was neces
sarily limited. The first six days it
consisted of meat. potatoes, apples,
bread, butter. sugar. milk and salt.
The second six. spinach was substi
tuted for milk. The spinach was
cooked i'll distilled water, and this
water was used for drinking purposes.
All the food was weighed. But when
these points We're cared for, as be-
came the scientist, then the womans S
part was evident. Because the food
was prepared in so many different
ways. and was SO attractitely served,
that no one missed the wider variety
that was their ordinary custom: DR..
Mclaughlin stayed at the laboratory
for - hours a day during the entire
II days. in order that she might per
sonally see to every detail.
And the results, when published
will mean simply that we should eat
more spinach to he healthy, and we
will accept ii without question or com
ment.
DIR. Mclaughlin came to the Bureau
of Home Economics here in Septem-
ber. 1924. She comes originally from
the Middle West, and took her college
work and her a. r. at the University
of Nebraska. For some years she
taught chemistry in the Illinois Wom
ans College, as head of the depart
ment; going to the University of Chi
cago Tor her doctorate. and teaching
there afterWard, for the year preced

The overblouse is an indispensable
accessory to the suit. You might
expect that the high -collared blouse
would have gained ground in Paris

one sees as many comfortable open

times the little roll collar of the blouse
is laid over the collar of the suit.
Sometimes the question of neck COW
