The Ideal Food

Many patented food article lays claim to being the ideal food.
 But the only food substance that can with any justice lay claim to this title is milk. Milk IS most important, if not the most important of all human foods. Its composition is such that man could practically live upon t without any other substance. From the viewpoint of digesti- bility, milk is food in an ideal con- clifton From an economic view point, milk gives more fuel per unit cost than practically all other foods.
 Milk ordinarily contains about s1 per cent of water, and 13 per cent solids. It is the solids in the milk that are valuable. though their suspension or solution in the wa ter is important.
 Of the 13 per cent solids, ap- proximately 1-2 per cent is fat and 1-2 per cent to per cent milk sugar. Milk also contains valuable mineral salts which are useful to the body.
 In most communities where the production and distribution of milk i5 supervised milk is classified In grades A, B. and C.
 Contrary to the common impress sion these sraduations are not based upon the fat contents of the milk, but on the number of bac- teria found in a cubic ccntimetre of milk.
 While milk is an ideal food it is also dangerous food-dangerou is handled in an unsanitary man. ner. To be on the safe side, milk should be pasteurized, and if pas teurization is not feasible it should be brought to the boiling point and quickly cooled
 Even pasteurized or boiled milk, if not stored properly and kept cool, may become contaminated with disease germs and produce illness.

 MT. Veritzen was silent for a long second, and from under my discreet ly lowered eyelashes I watched his face. There was no expression save that of the courteous attention giv- en by one gentleman to another's remarks. But when at last he spoke there was around his lips the wrath of a humorously cynical smile.
 Fortunately, I am always pre- pared for emergencies, he said. and held up a, suddenly peremptory fin ger to Purnell, who was replacing the used cups at the fruit punch table with fresh ones The little darky skinned across the floor to, us and stood at attention.
 Bring that box I gave you into the back room,' he ordered. and Purnell gave the effect of saluting as he hurried away.
 Will you accompany me-" Mir Neritzen said formally. and, walking between my husband and my em- ployer, I went into the back room, where we saw that MT. Seibel had rearranged the dinner table. making it a buffet. The food, of course, was not all in place, for the supper was not to be served until after midnight. but everything else was ready, and while we were waiting for Purneli we stood admiring the center-p piece of miniature pool and bordering orchids.
 Veritzen Has "Last Laugh"
 Those tiny goldfish are the worlds best bet" Dicky said, touch ing one of them with the tip of his finger and laughing as the little thing Tipped an absurd tail and dove to the bottom of the pool. There was distinct respect and ad- miration in the gaze I sent him. knew that his real feelings toward MT. Veritzen could not be uttered without profanity, but his manner was that of a respectful, apprecia- tive younger man toward an older one of distinction who had compli- mented his family.
 But when Purnell brought back an immense box and MT. Neritzen opened it, disclosing orchids of every hue used in the corsages of the dancers I saw Dickys eyebrows narrow for an instant, and knew that the naive delight he had taken in smashing my bouquet of white orchids was spoiled by, the patent of Mir. Veritzen to replace them.

GREEDY SELFISRNESS
By Thornton w. Burgess
Naught so selfish is as greed: Careless of another's need.
 Old Mother Nature

These were busy days under and in the beechnut trees. Yes, indeed, these were busy days. Al the Squir- rel family. including Happy Jack the Gray Squirrel, Rusty the Fox Squirrel. Chatterer the Red Squirrel, Stripped Chipmunk, 1mpy the black Chipmunk and Timmy the Flying Squirrel, were there. The latter came after dark; but all the oth- CTS, with their mates, were on hand with the coming of daylight and, remained until the Black Shad- ows came creeping out. Buster Bear got around once a day. Light foot the Deer and Mrs Lightfoot were around, sometimes two or three times in a day. Thunderer the Gruse and Mrs. Grouse feasted their daily. Sammy JIy cafe often. Little Whitefoot the Wood Mouse got his Share every night. Even Bobby Coon and Unc' Billy Possum visited the nut trees. So you see t was very busy season.
 Now. Buster Bear and Lightfoot the Deer, the largest of the visitors, seemed not to care how many oth- CTS might be enjoying the feast. It was a good deal that way with Bobby Coon and Unc' Billy Possum. Sc long as no one interfered, these folks did not care how many others might be there. But it wasn't so with with some of the smaller peo- pie. Happy Jack Squirrel and Chat terer the Red Squirrel were con- tinually quarreling. Chatterer was especially quarrelsome. Both were as mean as they could be to the Chipmunks. Whenever they happen ed to be on the ground and Striped Chipmunk, or lmpy the black Chipmunk. appeared. Chatterer and Happy Jack would forget their own quarrel and try to drive the Chip hunks away. It was only when Happy Jack and Chatterer were up i' the trees that the Chipmunks shad any peace at all.
 T don't see what is the matter with Happy Jack and Chatterer." said Impy to his father. Striped Chipmunk. If 1 happen to pick up a few nuts near Buster Bear. he doesn't say anything. Lightfoot the Deer doesn't say anything if I find some nuts right beside his nose. Mir and Mrs. Grouse never say a. word But those two cousins of ours seem to hate to see me get a single nut I don't understand it."
 Its selfish greed" replied Strip ed Chipmunk. 'Buster Bear, Light foot the Deer. Mir. and Mrs. Grouse tlnc' Billy Possum and Bobby Coon take only what they can eat at the present time. They do not store up food. So, as long as there IS enough for the present meal. they don't care how many you and take. Chatterer and Happy Jack have storehouses just the same as we have ard so they want all the nuts. It's Fish greed and nothing else

Preventing Anger By Alice Judson Peale

 } Although anger is an entirely natural response to feelings of illustration and to wounded self esteem, it is one which must be checked
 An individual who habitually meets his difficulties with anger is put at disadvantage. He geta along badly with people and he does not deal as competently as he other wise would with the work which he has to do.
 Anger as a chronic response is something which need not be- per- mitted to develop in any child if he is properly handled.
 Here are a few suggestions which should be helpful:
 Don't tease or humiliate your child.
 People often tease babies because their rage is considered so cute" but this is an expensive sport for which the child pays and which no mother should allow.
 Don't nag. Don't frustrate your child's wishes except when it is necessary.
