MARIE.
Many a lasting friendship
IVA and love affair has resulted
from a bright and interesting ex-
change OF letters. For a clever letter
reflects the personality and mental
makeup OF a person In a very un-
mistakable manner. So continue
your correspondence and await de-
velopments, but do not weave too
many dreams around the man. un-
less you feel that your interest and
affection are reciprocated-

products, such as cheese, fruits and
tomatoes. as well as the leafy green
vegetables. are taken in large enough
amounts. When we speak OF the
leafy vegetables we mean such veg
etables as spinach, lettuce, cauli.
flower and cabbage.
One OF our eminent nutritionists.
DR. II. C. Sherman, has offered the
following family budget plan for Sc
curing the necessary vitamins: ITO
spend at least as much for fruit and
vegetables as for meat and fish; also
TO spend at least as much for milk as
for meat Tor for milk and cheese as
for meat and fish," This Is q very
good rule TO follow.
You cannot enjoy robust health II
there Is q nutritional lack. Each
day the diet should contain at least
a pint OF milk for adults and a quart
for the growing child, two salads and
two liberal heipings OF the Ieafy por-
ton or green vegetables, one small
helping OF meat. and one or two eggs.
besides bread and butter, fruits and
other vegetables.
From infancy to old z diet IS
the chief source Of energy and
growth. On the whole. people are
becoming enlightened TO the great
dangers OF nutritional failure. Our
girls are being trained in both public
and private schools more and more
in the art OF home-making and cook
ing. The public has free lectures.
the radio. the public press and all
manner OF periodicals setting forth
the value Of proper diet and how 10
secure II.
There Is another thing TO think Of
and that is the Importance OF egu
larity in the meals. Have a set time
for your meals. Have our menus
regularly and systematically good.
Take enough time 50 that you can
eat leisurely. Make a pleasant e
mony OF the meal. Thus YOU may
live long and happily.

the Utes already have expressed IN
