think that she can keep down the
weight of the baby by starving
herself. The baby's weight is not
dependent entirely on the amount
of food it's mother eats.
All food during this period should
be well chewed to aid digestion, ex-
actly as it should be we'll chewed at
any other time. Indeed, a good gen.
eral rule for the prospective mother
is to eat the same foods that she
usually eats, but to make certain
that she gets plenty of milk, and
more fresh fruits and vegetables
than she would take ordinarily.
CHE should watch particularly
~ her supply of vitamins and
such salts as calcium, phosphorus,
iron, and iodine. She ought to
have eight to 10 glasses of water
a day, unless her amount of fluid
are restricted by her doctor for
some special reason.
The necessary proteins will be
supplied by meat. eggs, milk and
such vegetables as peas and beans.
The fats are important, particu-
larly butter, cream and cheese, be-
cause they provide vitamin A.
The carbohydrates and starches,
including bread, potatoes, and
cereals, are needed to provide calo-
ries which take care of the mothers
demands for extra energy.
Besides getting a rich supply of
vitamins A, B and c from fresh
vegetables and fruits, particularly
citrus fruits and tomatoes, the pros
pective mother may require extra
cod liver oil or halibut liver oil, or
perhaps viosterol, as prescribed by
her doctor, to be certain of vita
min D.

MONOPOLY is DECLARED
SECURITY MENACE
By John Kennedy

By John Kennedy
The great political philosopher
William Jennings Bryan, in an ad.
dress on monopolies, quoted j. D
Rockefeller Jr. as stating, in de.
tense of the trust system, that as
the American Beauty rose can not
be brought to perfection without
pinching SO buds, so that the hun.
dredth bud can receive the full
strength of the bush, so great in
dustrial organizations are impossi-
BILE without the elimination of the
smaller ones.
Mr.. Bryan also stated on that &C.
caSlon that the Democratic Party
championed the cause of the small
enterprises.
I do not believe that any one
would doubt the sincerity of the
immortal commoner's words. Yet as
we witness more than ever the
monopolizing of all industries and
business. we must wonder if the
great statesman didn't have toe
much confidence in his partys in
tentions; for although that party is
now in the saddle, it surely has
made no attempt to check the
monopolistic trend.

is proving a menace TO every in

TODAY'S SCIENCE
BY DAVID DIETz

DROF. P. E. BROWN, head of the
4 department of agronomy at
Iowa State College, adds his voice to
those who have been preaching that
the future safety and security of
this nation rests upon the adoption
of wise and carefully planned land
policy.
1.-THE important thing to remem-
ber," he says, lis that the land is
our one and only real heritage. It's
proper use is of national significance
and demands the attention of all
our people.
I'VE must take care of what we
have, not only from the standpoint
Of selfish interests, but also in the
interest of succeeding generations
We must have land-use plan, and
then we must have action"
Such a plan, he points out must
be based upon consideration of the
future as we'll as the present and
must take into account many fac
tors. First of all, he says. it must
take into account the soil itself, its
characteristics, capabilities and pos
sibilities.
Then the proper use of it in the
interests of the future" he contin-
ues. This involves the elimination
of The uneconomic, submarginal
areas and the purchase by the gov
eminent of such areas for pastures,
forests, parks, or recreation or Wild
life areas.
1T also involves a planned farm
use of the land in accordance with
its abilities to support pasture or
cultivated crops The whole problem
of livestock production enters the
picture here. the type of livestock,
the system of farming. etc."
The, relations of farming and in
dustry' and the relations of land use
and taxation also require careful
study in the opinion of Prof. Brown.

A WOMAN who is going to have
n child must eat not only for
herself, but also for the baby.
The child depends on it's mother
for its food supply, which comes
to the baby through the blood YES
sells which connect it to the mother
The food substances going to the
baby are, for the most part, gov
erned by the food the mother takes
If her food supply lacks substances
that the child requires, these SUBJ
stances will be extracted from tbs
mothers tissues and organs to her
considerable detriment.
There used to be an idea that a
mother had to lose tooth for every
child that was born to her. It was
a well-established fact that the
mothers teeth would become loose
and decay during that period pre-
vious to childbirth.
Now we know that, if the mother

during this period, her tissues need
not be compelled to give up these
elements to supply the child.
THIS does not mean, of course
u that she ought to overeat
Overeating would throw an excess
burden on her deigestive organs
and certainly her body is not in
any condition to undergo excess OF
any kind.
There is some slight increase of
weight of the mother, which is nor

normal increase in weight will have
a bad effect. At the same time,

WARNS VOTERS TO BEWARE
THE BACKSLAPPER
BY Hector
Gentle voter. beware of the back
Slapper. His kind have cost you a
lot of money that you didn't get
that way.
Statesmen up in the sixties usu-
ally start the wars. When the old
timers stop doing that we can af-
ford a liberal pension for them.
There is something funny about,
if not under, mortar board cap.
Eventually some political party
will do what is obviously the thing
to do, and advocate a plan to put
money to work for commerce and
industry, instead of permitting it
to be dictator of the whole outfit.

ITO get this one it is necessary
l. to recall that Ferdinand
Schaefer's last symphony concert
began with Franz LISTS "Preludes"
and ended on the terrifying note of
Gioacchino Rossini's overture to
William Tell"
A North Side youngster, who is
something of sign and portent, re-
ported that the program got bet

that Englishmen circumlocution
airy and obscure as they are in
many respects, really know how to
handle their language better than
we Americans do.
At least, in the field of Transport

They get around in prams, trans,
tubes and lifts whereas we still put
up with baby buggies, street cars,
subways and elevators.
We bring up the subject at this
time to learn what, if anything,
has been done with the word "esca-
lator." We don't propose compli-
eating life with word like that.
DACK in the good old days of the

were on an even keel, it always
tickled us to see Volney Malott go
through the ritual of spending a
nickel for a cigar 1t was grand
to watch because the clerk always
brought out box of ten centers
first just to hear Mr.. Malott snort
That snort became the symbol of
sound banking in indianapolis. At
any rate, it was a sign that one
banker wasn't frittering away the
banks reserves on some new and
unholy adventure.
We lost interest in bankers after
Mr.. Malott's death until yesterday.
Yesterday We saw banker of
the new school dining in a public
place where everybody could see
him and, by, George, he was eating

Chief Justice Hughes of the United
States Supreme Court. Mr.. Hughes
recently celebrated his seventy
fourth birthday at his desk, ard
friends recalled the lecture he de-
livered at Columbia University 10
years ago. Said Mr.. Hughes:
Under present conditions of liv-
ing, and in view of the increased
facility of maintaining health and
vigor, the age of 10 may we'll be
thought too early for compulsory re-
tirement."
Justice Hughes and most of his
colleagues on the Supreme Court
bench certainly have proved this
contention. America could produce
thousands in the same category
too young at 70 to retire. Whatever
is done about mass pensioning, these
men will stand out as classic ex-
amples of useful, vigorous old age.

PRAISES STUDENTS FOR
SATIRIZING WAR


Whatever may be your opinion
about the Princeton-inspired Vet
Grams of Future Wars" there is
this healthy note about the whole
satiric affalr-America still retains
its freedom and ability to laugh eff

Where else in the civilized world
today could a group of college stu
dents turn a major national issue
into farcical jest?
And if the Veterans of Future
Wars" can, through clever satire.
t'rlng home to the nation the utter
folly of war, they've made a real
contribution. The whole nation
