ITITH the opening of school
w days, breakfast becomes per-
1aps the most important meal of
he day. The normal adult needs
some type of morning meal even
+ it's the lightest variety, but
,hildren must have nourishing,
lnhurried breakfast before they
Jegin the day.
The adult who is dieting TO re
luce and decides 10 eat but two
aeals a day gives his digestive
apparatus a fairer chance If he
goes without his luncheon rather
han his breakfast. This divides
he time between meals more
equally.
Breakfast for children should
De of the hearty" type. A morn
ing in school uses up vast
amount of nervous energy as well
as physical strength. No child can
work mentally who is not nour-
ished. Listlessness, headache or
irritability may be the result Of
Scanty breakfasts.
Many children have little appe-
tite for breakfast. This may be
explained in several ways. The
evening meal may have been too
heavy and too rich. Too much
food at bedtime keeps the stomach
working overtime and prevents
restful sleep.
Child Must Sleep Well
Sleeping conditions also may
affect child's appetite. Too lit
tie or careless ventilation and
wrong bed covers can make a
1hild Indifferent TO his breakfast.
A draft across the bed can cause
as stuffy and uncomfortable a feel
ing in the morning as insufficient
air can. Too heavy covers weigh
d child down and make him feel
tired, while too light covers tend
TO make him curl into a ball In the
effort TO keep warm and he awak-
ems cramDed and uncomfortable

ATLANTIC CITY, N. j.. up
Governor Albert C. Ritchie of
Maryland today aligned himself
with those who oppose government
ownership as the solution of the
public utilities problem.
Ritchie is among the more prom
inent fayorite son candidates for
the Democratic presidential nomi-
nation next year. He outlined his
views before the public utilities Sec
ton of the American Bar Associ-
alton in convention here.
THE national policy. it seems to
me-" Ritchie said, must not be
government ownership. The capt.
talistic system has its defects. of
courSe-periods of forced unem-
ployment are perhaps the worst
but it has centuries of evolution
airy growth back of it, and under II
we have come to lead the nations
Of the world in every form OF prog
reSs. I do not believe in crippling
it.
Il would not deny the people OF
any state the right to protect and
develop their power resources in
whatever way seems to them best
adapted to that end. But l do not
believe there are many instances
in which state regulation will moi
amply suffice rather than any form
of state ownership
Ritchie said there might be pow
er resources of such special nature
that public welfare would require
special treatment. In this connec-
ton he cited Muscle Shoals ano
the Hoover Dam project, but re.
