When you know which foods are
indispensable to health and
beauty, and which ones make you
lat, then you can pick and choose
and lose weight.
Foods are classified as "protec.
tive" repair and regulating,
and energy supplying" Proteins,
minerals and vitaminS repair,
regulate and protect. Lean meats,
eggs, milk, fruits and vegetables
contain these elements and are in
cluded in the reducing diet in
normal amounts. Any diet lack
ing these important foods is un-
safe for prolonged use.
To burn body fat, the reducer
must take calorie cut somewhere
along the line in order to draw
on the stored fat for one-third Of
her energy.
The. calorie slash is taken in
fuel foods only, fats and car

S"NSVOJ 04N<SO oAlN NCAC0ho.
OF these fuel foods, fats are the
ones which must be watched most
closely by the reducer, since they
contain two and one-fourth times
as many calorieS as protein or
carbohydrates. You can see the
reason why butter, cream, fat
drippings and pastries add pounds.
Each ounce of fat gives 255
calories, whereas an ounce Of
protein and carbohydrate yields
113 calories. For the same num-
Der Of Galleries you can have more
than twice as much protein or
carbohydrate as fat.
In other words, you can eat
twice as much lean meat as fat
for an equal number of Galleries.
BY restricting the fat, you get the
most food for the least calorieS.
If you take too many pats OF but
ter, and are lavish with cream,
gravy and French dressing, you
will quickly pass your calories
limit and still be hungry.
In order to use your stored
body fat, you must decrease your
calorieS below your energy re-
quirements. Food knowledge
helps you to build calorie judg-
ment. Decrease the carbohy-
drateS-breads, cereals, sugars,
desserts and potatoes-and use as
little fat as possible in the diet.
These are the foods which count
highest in Galleries and can safely
be- reduced. t~. -.,s

seeks to avert the dangers Of war

Red Danger Scant
While the danger Of war in
Europe is growing, there will be
no attempt to overthrow the
British government he believes,
explaining:
"The late King George was
very popular, and King Edward
rs Prince Of Wales endeared
himself to the people, especially
to the working classes. .
"The Communists, Of course,
would like to see the monarchy
overthrow, but their power Is
negligible in England. There II

children are a boy and a girl.
DR.. Simmonds was notified at
10 a. m, and, with a nurse, started
for the Saunders home, a mile
off the State highway and hidden
in the hills. When the car in
which they were riding stalled the
doctor and nurse rode horseback
for several miles until their
mounts tired. A team of horses,
drawing a bobsled, hauled them
to within a mile of the home,
where another team was pressed
into service.

For the first time, a ruler Of

The result was the famous group

erence, gazing fondly down upon
the infant, now Edward VIII, in
