FOOD AND HEALTH
BY WINIFRED STUART GIBBS.
Food Specialist.

Learn TO do by doing" said our
grandmothers. After painstakingly i'm
scribing this admirable sentiment,
one with vivid imagination pictures
good little girls and boys running
about, seeking out tasks to be per-
formed. Why not be modern" in
this, as well as in other lines of
thought, and adapt this slogan for
those of us who are interested in
food? Suppose, for example, we take
as a rallying cry, Learn to eat by
cooking" True, the cooking class has
long been an ally of the teacher of
nutrition, but perhaps the connection
between cooking and eating has not
been fully realized.
Nor need we set out upon this path
without the satisfaction of knowing
that others before US have proved
our proposition. Underfed youngsters,
for instance, have demonstrated that
they We're very glad to learn how to
cook dishes containing the foods they
most needed. Why may not we
grown-ups learn with the children?
Suppose busy housewife, for exam
pie. She is, like most homie makers,
immersed In plans for her family and
gives scant attention TO herself. Then
one day she is in need of special at
qualified to give her expert inforra.
ton and learns that, like the children,
what she most needs is special diet
containing generous quantities Of milk
and vegetables. Is not that mother
and housekeeper more likely to have
her interest fixed on her new "diet"
if she gives some intelligent thought
to the preparation of dishes contain
ing milk and vegetables?
If the youngsters are already pro-
vided with just such foods, then the
mother need only apply the infor1na-
ton she has used in their behalf to
her own good. The point is to- get
clearly IN mind the connection be-
tween food preparation and food as
similation.
Children are not the only ones who
Just hate milk" Mother, who has
been ordered quart Of milk day,
may find herself dismayed at the
thought. Yet when she makes a study
OF learning how to prepare delicious
milk soups, combined with vegetables;
custard in which milk and eggs play
the chief parts; bread in which the
fiuid Is at least part milk; cocoa,
which IL made with part milk or with
milk alone; ice creams that are frozen
milk in it's most attractive forms
before she knows it the cup of 1unket
has slipped down, the dish of savory
milk soup has been tucked away and
the plate of ice cream has added it's
bit to the enjoyment Of busy day.
If q housekeeper wishes to add to
her cookery scrap book. why not
| have section on just this topic. If
the book is OF the loose.leaf variety,
this should be easy. Have ready
leaves containing recipes that win
show how to cook the particular
dishes required by each member of
! the family; fblue sheets for dad and
| yellow ones for junior and so on. She
will be killing two birds with one
stone because she viii be adding both
to her own health and her store of
kitchen lore.

Now we have him freed they say,

speaking, from which he can escape
only through surrender.
The expression originated in the lam
guage of sport. AS every hunter
knows, when the quarry is getting
tired and feels the dogs too hot upon
its trail, when there is no other refuge
in sight, it win seek the nearest tree.
And 1t is because this is a refuge
from which there is no escape, be.

As YOU know, the Laughing Brook
flows in TO the Smiling Pool. When
Peter goes down to the Smiling Pool
he usually wanders up the Laughing
Brook after a while. There are things
quite as interesting UP the Laughing
Brook as in the Smiling Pool. Then,
too, Peter always feels safer along the
Laughing Brook, for there the young
trees grow close together and he has
many hiding places. Especially is this
true near where the Laughing Brook
flows into the Smiling Pool. There it
is swampy and the alders grow.
Peter had found that pepper the
Hyla was too busy to talk. Old Mr..
Toad had explained to Peter that il
pepper should stop singing all the
others would stop singing. The mere
stopping on the part of pepper would
be q signal to all the other singers of
the Smiling Pool. So finally Peter de-
cided that he would go up the Laugh.
ing Brook on the chance that he might
at least find some Spring flowers along
the bank. So off he started. lipperty-
lipperty-lip. On the low ground where
it was marshy he found little groups
of green-andpurple striped hoods
standing boldly upright. Now and
again he stopped to peep into one of
these to see the tiny flowers within, so
tiny that it hardly seemed that they
could be- flowers. And though the
odor was very like the odor that
Jimmy Skunk carries with him, Peter,
after first making O. wry face, ad.
mitted to himself that he liked it.
You see. it meant Spring, and any
think that meant Spring Peter just
had to like.
So Peter wandered along the length
of the Laughing Brook. Two or three
times he saw a trout darting through
the water. Over his head in the alders

outside the stamped or designed part
Of the rug for it TO be turned in and
sewed down on the under side. This
may be the only finish for the rug,
though sometimes hooked rugs are
lined or bound. The pressure of the
stitches, one against the other, holds
them firmly.
Putting Rug in Frame.
The foundation may be fastened to
the frame in one of many different
ways, according to the preferences of
the worker. One way is to wind the
frame with carpet binding, or even
with strips of stout cloth, and then sew
the burlap foundation to it. Another
is to tack the burlap directly to the
frame, putting a length of tape over
the burlap to prevent the foundation
pulling away, as burlap is very loosely
woven. Thumb tacks are excellent
when this method is followed. These
are two of the usual ways of securing
the foundation to the frame.
Hints in Hooking.
Hook the medium from the edges to.
ward the center and the rug will not
be apt to full" at the edges nor "cup"
in the center. Outlines of design should
be hooked and then the centers filed
in. No frame should be large enough
to hold all of rug at one time, be-
cause then there is difficulty in doing
the hooking on account of the stretch
ing necessary to get at the middle por-
tions. The part of the rug not being
worked should be rolled up and fas-
tened securely. When the hooked part
isalone, remove it from the frame, un-
roll the rest, and put in the unworked
portion. Roll up the finished part and
proceed with the hooking.
Materials.
Wool rag rugs are generally clipped
because the frayed ends felt and make
a delightfully."- smooth surface. Cotton
rags are not apt to be clipped. because
the strands do not felt well. Worsted,
now being employed, may be clipped or
not, and so also may jute. These are
the three mediums that are in high
favor for hooked rug work.

Warns OF FALSE

Better Business Bureau
Points Out Misrepresenta-

Washington business men annually
are contributing thousands of dollars
for questionable" advertising promo
lions making unauthorized use of the
name of organized labor, according to
a warning today by the Better Bust
ness Bureau, following a conference
yesterday between the executive com
mittee of the Central Labor Union
and Louis Rothschild, director of the
bureau.
The meeting was called in response
to numerous complaints by business
men that they had been led to place
advertising in certain publications,
later discovered to be entirely unof-
fetal. Solicitors, it was asserted,
used the names of men prominent in
labor union circles without authority.
Representatives at the meeting
pointed out that any solicitors for au-
thorized labor publications would be
able to present credentials bearing the
seal of the Central Labor Union. Pos
sible legal action to prevent further
unfair" treatment Of both the labor
unions and the business men was dis
cussed
In addition to Mr.. Rothschild, those
attending the meeting included j. NJ.
Bolts, chairman of the Building
Trades Union; Frank j. Coleman, Sec
rotary of the Central Labor Union,
and Henry Miller, chairman of the adj
justment committee of the Central
Labor Union.
