"Going TO The Dogs


My grandpa notes the worlds
worn cogs,
And says we're going to the dogs.
His grandad, in his house of logs,
swore things were going to the
dogs;
His dad, among the Flemish boys,
Vowed things were going to the
dogs.
The caveman in his bearskin
togs,
Said things were going to the
dogs;
But this is what I have to state:
The dogs have had an awful
waltz

SCHOOL CHILDREN
NEED 3 MEALS DAILY
DIR. Riley Says Lunches
Should be Properly
Balanced

Taking up the question of
school lunches, DIR. R. H. Riley,
Director of the State Department
Of Health said children need
three square meals a day. No
child will thrive on less. Most
often the hastily packed lunch
that a child carries to school is
merely a substitute for a meal.
GAS much planning is required
for the properly balanced lunch as
for any other meal. Sandwiches,
buns or doughnuts, may stave off
the pangs of hunger but they
certainly are not nourishing
enough to supply the child's food
needs. To be sufficiently nourish-
ing a child's lunch should con-
tain the following:
"One-half pint of milk, in the
form of soup, cocoa, or custard;
some vegetables or fruit, or both;
sandwiches, or a substantial food,
such as baked beans, with bread
and butter; and, if desired, sim
pie sweets, such as cookies, cook
ed fruits or simple desserts. In
cold weather there should be a
hot dish with each meal.
Sandwiches are the mainstay
Of any lunch because they are
easy to carry, but they are likely
to become monotonous. They can
be varied by using different kinds
of bread, whole wheat, rye, steam
ed brown bread, or nut bread.
In the place of meat Filings, va
riety can be secured by substitute
ing chopped vegetables, raw or
cooked, or chopped dried fruits,
either by themselves or with
other ingredients such as cream
cheese or peanut butter.
Raw fruit is another lunch
standby, but raw vegetables, such
as strips of raw carrot, sections
of raw turnips, and lettuce leaves
can be used also The vegetables
should be wrapped in wax paper
to prevent willing. Canned toma-
toes, cooked fruits, or salads,
help to vary the lunch and even
more important, provide some of
the vitamins and minerals that
are so apt to be lacking in school
lunches.
"a carefully packed lunch is
much more appetizing than one
that is hastily slammed together.
A few simple utensils are neces-

CindereIla's Glass Sap
@ Western Newspaper mo.

CindereIla's Glass Sap
CINDERELLA lost one Of her tiny
~ glass slippers at a costume bail
and so found her Prince Charming.
Her story is one of the most de-
lightful fairy tales in the world S
literature, and it seems a shame to
spoil it. But Cinderella did not go
to the ball wearing glass slippers.
The whole thing came about
through mistake in translation
Cinderella's story was originally
translated into English from the
French. In the French version.
Cinderella went to the ball wearing
pantoufles de vair. The word vair
means gray or white fur. like err
mine or miniver But the transla-
tor mistook it for verre, meaning
glass. It isn't nearly so romantic
the other way, but when you come
to think about it, can you imagine
anyone being able to dance in glass
slippers?
Many other mistakes have crept
into our literature in the same man
ner. One of our most charming
Christmas carols contains the Bib
ical quotation. Peace on earth.
good will to men" The line con-
tains a sentiment very appropriate
to the Christmas spirit.
Yet Biblical scholars say it IS a
mlstranslation from the Greek. and
that in the original version it read.
Peace on earth to men of good
will" At first sight, this does not
appear to be nearly as charitable
a statement as the one we are
accustomed to hearing. But when
one studies it for little while, it
really does seem to make more
sense.

sary. The lunch box should be
easy to clean, ventilated and
easy to carry Small, covered,
glass jars, can be used for salads,
cooked fruits, and simple des-
serts. Sandwiches are more in
wiling if wrapped in waxed paper.
Bread wrappers can be saved for
this purpose also. A vacuum bot
tie is useful for carrying milk,
or soup or cooked vegetables.
Both ingenuity and skill are
required to solve the problem of
the school lunch that is really a
nourishing meal. But the fact
that you are helping to supply the
child's health-building needs, JUS
titles all the necessary thought
and attention.
