Dinah DAYS Daily Talks on Diet
The Right Food Is the Best Medicine

A recent art exhibition was held
at the Art Center in New York City.
On the walls were hung the paintings
of representative American artists.
BronZes and marbles were displayed.
On tables placed in one room were
salads inspired by famous members
Of the artistic professions. Sculptors.
PAINTERS, writer's, actors and movie
stars contributed a suggestion for the
best salad. The idea was to bring
together the harmonies in oil. The
compositions were executed as SYM
phonies of color and artistry displayed
to delight the eye and tempt the ap-
petite.
There were fruit salads and vege-
table salads and mixtures OF these.

a niche in an appropriate menu. The
fruit salads, deliberately decorated
with whipped cream, could be the
mainstay of a luncheon. And the
palmer vegetable salads could appear
at dinner.
For ordinary. everyday use. an ap-
petizing and appealing salad can be
turned out by the busy housewife
without all the decorative motifs of
mayonnaise put on with pastry

health-giving qualities just the same.
Most of the men who sent in their
salad ideas seemed to use vegetables
as the ingredients. Some of the wom-
an celebrities contributed marvellous
fruit concoctions.

a brand-new house over there fast
ened to one of the posts of the clothes
yard. 1t had just been put out. 1t
hadn't been there the day before. Win.
some knew this because he had set
and whistled on that very post He
flew down to the little house now and
went inside. Then he came out and
flew back in a hurry to the Old
Orchard, to where Mrs. Winsome was
still fussing around that other house.

found the very place we've been
looking for. Yes, my dear; I've found
the very place we want. We must
hurry over and take possession of it
before somebody else does"
II think Wen stay here" said
little Mrs. Winsome quietly.
I'VE won't do anything Of the
sort" retorted Winsome. "This new
house I've found is better than this
one and you'll be delighted with 1t.
Come along, my dear"
1t was some time before Mrs.
Winsome finally agreed to go look
at that house over in Farmer Browns
dooryard. When she did, she hardly
gave 1t more than a glance. She
poked her head in, but didn't go in
side herself. Then she said to Win
some: Wen build over in that
other house." and back she flew to
the Old Orchard. OF course. Win
some followed her. When he got
there even Peter could see that Win
some was very much put out about
something.
'The only reason you don't want
that house over there is because you
didn't find it yourself first" cried
Winsome.

Winsome.
And this was the beginning of a
quarrel which Peter overheard and
which seemed to him the most foolish

Do you think there is anything I

In my little girls school, We live in a
very small town, and although the
school Is excellent, those in charge
are only just beginning to realize the
Importance of health work. Because
OF this fact, there Is so far no provi-

This is very good question indeed
and / am delighted to put you in
touch with certain sources of informa-
ton. / suggest that you write first
OF all to the American Child Health
Association, 370 Seventh avenue, New
York City, asking for their literature
on health work in schools. When you
have read this you will have, I am
sure, number of suggestions to
make to the school authorities. Before

triton. Evidently, the school authori-
ties are thinging along the right lines
and l am sure you will find that they
will be glad to have intelligent co.
operation from the mothers.
I have been reading about the place
of fat in the diet. I have also read
that children who cannot procure
sufficient food containing animal fats
are said to require an unusual amount
OF sunshine. Is 1t true that the suns
rays will take the place of the fat?.-
l.. T.
No, it Is not true. 1t is a fact that
the suns rays have, to a certain ex-
tent, the same effect on undernuorish-
ed children as certain types of food.
1t is also true that If undernourlshed
youngsters have plenty of sunshine
they are more apt to be healthy than
without it. On the other hand, it is
equally true that their food must con-
tain normal quantities of those fats
which provide two of our most impor-
tant vitamins.
This letter is interesting because It
brings up question which should be
more widely discussed. While it is
good that discussions in diet are be-
coming very popular, there also may
be danger in such discussions. A good
illustration of this is the latter ques-
ton raised in your letter, namely, as
to whether one dietary factor will take

Sunny South when they started house
hunting. There were several houses
in the Old Orchard put there by
Farmer Browns Boy. There were
two or three over near Farmer
