Eating Greater
Cause ofDeath
Than Drinking

Drink is the second greatest cause
of disease and death. Food comes
first, then drink. Excluding alcoholic
beverages, there are dozens of drinks
on the market today whose effect Is
detrimental, particularly to children,
Milk is the best drink for children.
Not only is 1t drink but food as we'll
the most nearly perfect food known to
man.
Milk is an all-the-year-round drink
and for this reason the children often
rebel against drinking 1t. This condi-
tion. however, may be overcome by
the introduction of the mixed drink.
Milk or diluted evaporated milk may
be mixed with eggs or used in fruit
juices or in some other way which
will disguise the fact that the drink
contains milk. In the hot summer
months when the child naturally
drinks more than in cooler weather,
1t is wise to vary the ways of serv-
ing milk, so as not to create distaste
for this important food

Man, in general, rolls down the hill

Overlooking is as dangerous to
adults as underfeeding is to children.
Foods difficult to digest, or which
overstimulate, should be avoided by
persons whose work does not require
any particular amount of physical ex-

men eat as much as or more than men
who do manual labor. And, inevitably,
nature rebels and sickness resultss
