Mary's shrewd deduction that

Medical Association and OF Hy-
gia. the Health Magazine.
The word with which dieticians
and food experts conjure in these
modern days is the vitamin. Already
mothers are familiar at least with
the importance Of vitamin G., the
scurv*- preventing vitamin that oc-
ours in orange juice, tomato Juice.
and other fruit juices. Hardly ba-
by today but what has the great ad-
vantages of this yitamin in aiding
it's proper growth.
Another vitamin. more familiar
to mothers. is vitamin ID. the rick
cts preventing vitamin that is found
in cod liver oil.
Then there is vitamin A, associa-
ted with some eyedisease and with
general nutrition. found in butter,
milk and cod liver oil: and vitamin
B associated with some nervous dis
orders and with proper resistance
to disease and with proper growth,
in other substances.
Both physicians and dieticians are
constantly searching for foods con-
tanning vitamins. since these sub
stances are SO important for life and
since the average human being likes
a varied dietary.
a particular delicacy since the be-
ginning of time has been the she'll
fish. Oysters and CLAIMS contain not
emily protein and sugar, but have
now been found to be comparatively
rich in their vitamin content. They
vary. however, In this regard.
The oysters are rich in yitamin B,
but neither the hard nor soft clans
contain ii in appreciateable Quanti-
ties. Nitamin A is also found In oy-
sters in larger concentration than In
clans. The clans, on the other hand,
contain more vitamin d than do the
oysters. but the oysters contain more
vitamin c.
1t is obvious from this discussion
that both the oyster and the clam
are valuable as parts Of we'll bal
anced diet. Their vitamin content
furnishes plenty of justification for
eating shell-fish. even were 1t not
for the fact that by most people
they are considered a rare delicacy.
