Because Of his great activity he re-
quires almost as much energy food as
grown man doing very heavy, active
work, and because he is growing very
rapidly, he needs almost one and a
half times as much food that supplies
him with protein and minerals, as a
fully grown man. Give him plenty of
milk, eggs, fresh fruits and vegetables
in addition to the energy foods that
are usually present in his diet, such as
bread and butter, cereals, potatoes,
