 GOOD HEALTH
Mrs. Lydia rohn Hansen Tells Thane Women
 Food Essentials

Do you eat nutritious food? If you do, your meals are appetizing and your health is good. If you don't, your taste for wholesome victuals has been impaired and you are either in bad physical ordar or destined to suffer ills that viii end in chronic ailments But whe,h- CT you do O. don't follow a sensible diet, be careful of the sllstenance given little children. They are entitled to the heritage of sound bodies, and will need them to stay in life's race.
 All of which is what Mrs. Lydia Fohn- Hansen says. She is assistant director of the home economies branch of the extension department of the Alaska College of Agricul- lure and School of Mines. She is meeting with women in Southeast Alaska. and last evening addressed a group at Thane on the impor- tance of nutritious food.

 5. One egg, and either meat, fish, cheese or nuts.
 Besides these five essentials a complete diet vii contain fat and sweets, and 6 to glasses of water per day. Adults may be allowed coffee and tea.
 Foods listed under, 1, ? and 3 maintain the alkalinity of the blood while 4 and are acid forming. It is therefore essential to keep a proper balance as too much acid in the system leads to disturbances of the kidneys, stomach and heart,
 Must 1>1 ->alanced
 In other words, diet consisting too largely of meat, bread, cereal, eggs and sugar. leads to excessive acid in the system. It needs to be balanced by fruits, vegetables and milk.
 Acid forming foods are meat, eggs, cereal, cheese, fish, plums and prunes.
 Alkaline forming foods are milk, vegetables, oranges, lemons, apples, |pineapples. etc.
 "A child who is not gaining should first be checked up on his eating habits to ascertain if he Is getting all the essentials and the amounts should then be increased in their proper proportion. In Alaska in win ter it is necessary for children to take cod liver oil or viosterol Ca concentrated cod liver olD since the days are short and sunshine IS limited Cod liver oil contains vita mine D which prevents rickets The first stages of rickets are restless ness, and sweating about the head. Unless checked the square head, protuberant stomach and bowlegs will develop.
 Be Careful of Weight
 Adults should endeavor to keep their weight within 10 to 15 per- cent Of the normal, preferably be- low. An excess of Is per cent over normal is serious physical handi- cap overtaxing the internal organs fatiguing the muscles, and predis- posing the system to diseases oi the heart. liver. kidneys, and short ening the span of life. Drastic re- duction of weight requires the ad vice of a physician, but anyone may safely limit himself to ont medium serving F cup of the essentials, emitting sweets, fats, ano starchy foods, thereby effecting . gradual loss in weight"

ton late today at the Franklin

teenth and K Streets Northwest,

DR.. Frank w. EBallou has re-
quested that the one remaining

State Rail Rate Rulings Upheld

In an exhaustive opinion, Chief Justice Charles
Evans Hughes held, without dissent. that federals
courts are without authority to enjoin interstate
rates made by state railroad commissions.
A question arose in North Dakota. Jobbing class
rates were made by the board Of railroad commits
sioners. A statutory three Judge court issued an in
junction. Public service commissions In 81 states
joined in protesting against the havoc they contend
cd would exist should the federal courts prevent
state made rates from becoming effective.
Now the supreme court Of the United States
speaking through its chief justice, held that the fed
eral courts are without authority TO enjoin inter
state rates made by state commissions prior to ac-
ton on them by the interstate commerce commits
sior.
To be exact or explicit the interstate commerce
commission must make an investigation as to the
reasonableness of the state rate and the federal L.

A Huge Oil Royalty Fund
Predicted

Texas IS first among oil producing states. A roy
atty fund Of $500. 100000 for the University Of Texas
is predicted by j. II. Walker, commissioner Of the
general land office as highly probable within the next
10 years If the production of oil from lands owned
by the university continue at the same rate as pres
ent. Lest We forget. laws enacted In addition TO the
laws repealed during the Moody administration make
It possible for the cause Of higher education TO get at
least a fair share Of what is coming in the sections
where the drill is said to be the thing. AS for peni-
Tertiary lands. legislation enacted protects the people
of Texas and places a leasing right in the hands Of the
committee appointed by the chief executive Of the
commonwealth. 1t is well for the plain people OF
Texas who pay taxes and are never tax eaters to in
form themselves as to the changes in the laws gov
erning mineral rights royalties which accrue from the
leasing Of university and public school lands.
