until she was in the sixth grade
at school. Then one day she came
home with bright eyes ana eager
voice to say that all Of her best
friends were going to take music
lessons from a teacher who was
perfectly adorable" and could she
take lessons, teo?
OF course she could. That was
exactly what her mother wished.
BY that time Jeanette's hands
were big enough to reach an
octave and strong enough to sound
the notes without any great
effort. Her mind was sufficiently
developed TO understand about
eighth notes and sixteenth notes
ana about the marks that indicate
technique In playing and about
other phrases that prove very
trying for little tots. So her les.
sons were q pleasure and her
practicing was voluntary.
BY the time she was IA years
old she could play quite as well
az her cousin, Mia. And she had
spent three years in her accom-.
plishment, while Nita had spent
eight.
No infallible rule can be laid
down as to the time when a child

ENISH has a similar food value

Both fish and meat are COM
posed largely OF protein and fat,
but fish, especially the leaner
kinds, contains more water than
meat.
Fat fish contain vitamins A

and B from neuri.is.
Lean fish contains only vitar1iT
B and fish roe probably only A.
Fish contains a great deal Of

or founder.
~ rs per cent: halibut, perch or

or lake trout.
Salmon and turbot contain still
more fat, and in dry or smoked

doubled.

The reason why fish contains
less actual muscIe-makin1 ma

For this reason plainly cooked

Fat fish take longer to digest
