Nutrition Nuggets.

Sometimes children will ask il they
cannot let one food take the place of
another i'll their diet For example,
little boy asked If he could not eat
more bread and not drink milk. In
that particular case the problem was
handled by showing the boy three
rats, one who had been fed on milk,
one on bread alone and one on milk
and bread. Nothing was said except
to ask the boy what he thought. lie
responded, Il guess you have to have
milk" This is merely one story out
Of the experience of health workers at
the University of Chicago, but it lis
worth while thinking over.
While formal lessons i'm food nutri-
ton and health are q help--in
fact necessarv--the most successful
teacher, whether in the classroom or
at home, is one who knows how to
teach the formal lessons and to apply
those lessons to daily living as we'll.
In other words, when the children
have learned what certain foods win
do for the body. unless they make
practical application Of this informa-
tion in choosing their own meals. not
much will have been accomplished,
lf you a~e trying to decide AS to
whether or not to send your children
TO Summer camp, YOU will, of
course. be very careful in selecting
the camp. Once selected, YOU will
then wish to satisfy yourself as to the
kind of food that the youngsters will
receive. one suggestion is this: DO
not criticize the proposed dietary Of
the camp If it seems to YOU to be sim,
pie. If the children have plentys OF
milk, with fruits and vegetables, you
need not worry about their being we'll
fed. All camps except those planned
for the luxury loving ones specialize
in their simple diet. and this IN one Of
their health advantages. On the other
hand, a word Of caution may he in
order in reference to the camp loca-
ton. For example, If it IL situated far
from a fruit orchard or vegetable gar
den or dairy farm. then, indeed YOU
must begin to ask questions. You
must find out just how and from
whore those important foods-Iniik
fruits and Tegetablcs~-are taken.
If you wish to satisfy yourself as to
whether your child lis we'll nourished,
see that his body is we'll developed
with firm muscles, good skin color and
plenty Of what our grandm0thers used
to call flesh on his bones. Then there
must be clear eyes, healthy-looking
lips and smooth, glossy hair. The
posture must be good he must hold
his head up, the abdomen must not
protrude beyond the chest. and
finally, the step must bo elastic.

Take this question Of food and nu.
triton. Frequently the tie-up may
come from some suggestion that has
been made in the school as regards
reading along good lines. on the
other hand, 1t is probably better for
the parent not to make this cOnuec-
tlon too obvious. The youngster who
likes to read and is also keen about
keeping TIP with his health work at
school win respond eagerly 10 sug-
gestions as to how the two may fit
together.
Beginning with an old favorite like
Alice in Wonderland" there are nu
merous food and health lessons from
this inspired nonsense. and it need be
no tiresome task for the child to find
these lessons for himself When he
reads adventure stories, il will in no
wise make him prig to suggest that
he find out how his fayorite heroes.

Now that the days are getting INTO
later Spring, there has been q definite
effort TO keep the meals Of charaC-
ter known as Tight" Several times
Spring cereals are introduced instead
of the hot cooked mush and some days
cereal is omitted all together. Veg
etables are, it possible, even more con-
spicuous than during previous weeks
and desserts are essentially Spring
like. Orange jelly served on Sunday,
however. for example, While light and
digestibIe, plays an important part
in Spring meal in that it helps to
spare protein or body building food.
Other desserts such as chocolate corn
starch, steVed canned fruit with
cookies. lemon custards and fruit
salad in orange baskets are planned
deliberately with the idea OF the warm
er days and their demands on ones
energy.
Grapefruit maringue pie Is served
at Thursdays dinner. This is an un-
usual adaptation Of fruit and merinEuo
pie which Is always proper. Make
precisely the same way as lemon
meringue using the grapefruit instead
of the lemon.
With the idea of stimulating the
Spring appetite savory dishes are in
troduced to several breakfasts. Liver
and bacon, Yarmouth bloaters kidney
omelets and broiled fresh tomatoes
with bacon are all, it is true. high i'm

course, the responsibility of the par.

that it is directed toward books that
are really worth while.
The next step is to get the young,

his reading along this and related
lines. | am not speaking now Of
