Calcium-Rich Foods Required

Leading nutrition authorities
hold that the average American
diet is more deficient in calcium,
perhaps, than in any other single
nutrient. This is especially likely
to be the case in the diet of the
adolescent. For at that time, boys
develop prodigious appetites and a
tremendous capacity for carbohy-
drates or energy-producing foods,
while girls become extremely fin
icky. Either they do not take
enough food at meals, or they tend
to eat too many rich mixtures be-
tween meals. AS a result, the
diet of both boys and girls is
likely to contain an abundance
of meat, fish, highly milled ce-
reals and other refined foods, with
inadequate amounts of the foods
rich in calcium.

WHAT to EAT and WHY

child has his teeth brushed for
him, and the young school child
has his tooth-brushing ritual SUI
pervised, too often the adolescent
is left to his own devices in this
respect. That is a great mistake,
as adolescents are sometimes
careless in the care of their teeth.
Mothers must see to it that
there are two toothbrushes, one
for night and one for morning, so
that it is never necessary to use
a soggy brush. They must watch
when the supply of tooth paste or
powder runs low, and see that it is
replaced. For it is surprising how
few children can be persuaded to
brush their teeth properly without
an agreeable dentifrice! Mothers
should take care to choose a dem
thrice that will preserve or re-
store luster in the teeth. For ado
leScentS are extremely sensitive
about their appearance and they
must not be allowed to permit
dingy teeth to spoil their smiles.
If mothers will feed their ado
lescents a correct diet and super
wise their daily dental care, the
coming generation will not only
be more attractive to look at but
should enjoy more abundant
health.

An Aid TO Dental Health

For although expectant mothers
are not always aware of this inn
portant fact, it is true that the
first or "baby" teeth are devel-
oped within the jaw during pre-
natal life, and the foundations for
the second set are also laid at this
time.
Unless the expectant mothers S
diet is very generously supplied
with calcium, so as to allow ade-
quate amounts for the baby's
teeth and bones, nature will en-
deavor to meet the child's require
ments by sacrificing calcium from
the mothers own body. If she
has no adequate reserve, then she
may be forced to lose "a tooth for
every child" or suffer even more
serious dental ills.

determined effort to feed them
diet rich in calcium and vitaminS
A, C and D-the substances re-
quired, especially, for maintaining
sound, healthy teeth. If milk and
succulent fruits and vegetables
figure prominently in the daily
menus of the adolescent girl, they
will go a long way toward helping
to correct the "choosy" attitude
toward food from which many old
er children suffer.
And if careful attention to diet
is coupled with careful attention
to sound hygienic habits, the
health of our 'teen-age boys and
girls will be greatly improved,
and they will be more adequately
prepared to assume the duties of
parenthOOd.

Before them, for a mile or more,
stretched an alluvial fiat filed with
sand-bars where the river, leaving
the gorge above, suddenly widened
to flow slowly through a basin
fanked by sandy shores. Above and
beyond the shores extended wooded
terraces to lift at last into barren
hills.

Results of Calcium Deficiency

If her diet has been deficient in
calcium, for example, her pelvic
bones may be imperfectly devel-
oped, so that she suffers unneces-
sarily during the birth of her
child. And if liberal amounts of
calcium have not been stored in
her body, she may be called upon
to make needless sacrifices from
her own body in the interests of
her child. 1t is well known that if
an expectant mothers diet is not
abundantly supplied with calcium,
the substance will be withdrawn
from her own bones and teeth in
an effort to meet the needs of the
developing child.

it necessary to convince someone
across the table that the game was
on the ''up and up" The hammer
on the gun is long affair on the
top and falls down sharply to dis
charge the she'll. The gun was
known as the pepper box"
A cap and ball pistol of 1845, prob
ably used for dueling purposes, is
another feature of the collection.
1t is of Colt make and has the rear
sight on the firing point of the ham,
mer. The sight can be used only
when the hammer is cooked.
Another oddity of the collection is
a century-old muzzle-loader that is
superior to modern rifles in accu-
racy, according to Hansen. Hansen
has the original wooden ramrod
used to load the gun. Powder for it
is kept in a regulation powder horn
that is about 100 years old and shot
is served into the gun from leather
pouch that has a four-pound capa-
city. The gun and equipment came
from the Ozark mountains.
Hansen says only the horn on the
right side of an animal could be
used as a powder horn since it
was to be slung over the shoulder.
Horns from the left side would not
hang properly.
The collection includes Indian ar
rowheads and tomahawks in addi-
tioA to guns from ali over the
world.

A collection of guns which would
thrill the youngsters of the Indian
and cowboy" period or old-tiner
who remembered the bad days" of
the old West is owned by Jesse
Hansen of Cheyenne, writes a
Cheyenne United Press correspond
ent in the Chicago Daily News.
This history of the modern gun is
traced in the collection. First came
the blunderbuss, then the percussion
cap and ball gun in which a cap
was used instead of flint for igniting
the powder in the barrel. This cap
was placed over a projection un-
derneath the hammer with a small
hole in the projection carrying the
fire to the powder and discharg-
ing the gun.

The oldest piece in Hansen's col
lection is an 1887 pistol with a re-
volving cylinder of six barrels in
stead of the regulation cylinder
holding six cartridges and the one
barrel of today.
The gun was designed primarily
for use at close range and served

it will never be enough. Both of

to use over and over in different
materials. They're easy as french

Charming School FrOck.
This is an aWfully good style for
growing girls who incline to be
bit lanky. The puff sleeves, fared
skirt and small waistline, drawn
in by a belt at sides and back,
give them just the right lines. The
high neckline, finished by little
round collar, covers up their col
lar bones and looks so we'll under
young faces. This is a diagram
design, therefore can be finished
in a few hours. Make it of velvet

gingham, linen-it looks well in
practically every fabric that
school girls wear.
Three-Way Apron Design.
Two comfortable pinafore styles,
so cut that they won't slip off at
the shoulders, and a sweet little
tie-around, are yours in this smart
design that will help to solve many
of your Christmas gift problems.
Anyway you take it, or make it,

in those sand-barsl If we only get
back with it,"
Napayo's black eyes shone with a
hidden fear as he stared through his
mop of hair at the distant narrowing
of the river where the stream left
the gorge and spread out over the
shallow bars. He was approaching
the Gorge of the Spirits, tabu among
his people for two generations. The
wrath of the spirits of the Naskapi
and the Eskimos whose bones lay on
these sandy shores would vent itself
on these white men and on the girl
with hair like the sun. But these
people were his friends-had saved
his life. With terror-filled eyes, he
took up his paddle and followed
the others up the slower water Of
the wide fiat.
So gl eat was the evident distress
of the Naskapi, and so grave the
dark fea lures of Noel, that, a half
mile below the foot of the gorge,
Alan turned in to the gravelly shore.
On the first timbered terrace above
the river, they made camp in the
spruce. After supper he took the
Naskapi and Noel aside for a talk
while John McCord padded the ca
noe among the sand-bars examin-
ing with his prospector's eyes the
nature of the alluvial deposit
brought down by the river.
Alan impressed upon the two In
dians the fact that the Naskapi who
had brought gold nuggets to Chino
had escaped the bad medicine of
the spirits because they had not
gone near the gorge. Napayo would
not be asked to go near the gorge.
He would hunt caribou, spear SAL
mon and make snowshoes and cloth
ing. They would camp where they
were safe from the danger of the
| demons.
Napayo seemed somewhat re-
lieved, then Alan put an arm over
Noels shoulder, led him to one side
and talked to him as a brother. The
moaning in the gorge, he ex-
planned, was nothing but the con-
fused sound of the wind and of bro
ken water. The Talking River had
been named because of the same
peculiar sounds in the little canyon
Noel knew and was not afraid to
pass. And he was familiar with the
Singing Rapids on the Great Whale.
the famous Wailing Water of the
East Main and the Whispering Hills

because of sounds made by wind or
water, or both. This gorge, here
had been filled with the same noises

sounds and noises. Was he, Noel,

tion and belief in the foolish talk of

The Adolescen+'s Diet

To balance the diet properly,

ergy foods should be supplement-
ed by milk and cheese which are

vegetables which are also a good
source; by eggs and fruits, valued
for their minerals and vitamins !;
and by bulky foods which supply
sufficient cellulOse to help pro-
mote regular health habits.

Backs Report recommending

Group disqualification.
By the Associated Press.
MILWAUKEE, Sept. l4.-The Wis
consin State Medical Society's House
OF Delegates yesterday adopted COM
mittee reports recommending a trial
OF sickness insurance and establish
ment Of a mutual insurance corpora
ton under Wisconsin laws to admin
1ster form of group disqualification.
The society will appropriate sew
eral thousand dollars to conduct sick
ness insurance experiments and be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000 to finance
the hospital insurance plan, it was
announced
The committee report had listed 50
month per family as the premium
most often cited for sickness insur-
ance, under which sickness care would
be rendered on a voluntary insurance
basis. The figure was criticized as in
SUFFICIENT, and the report urged that
care must be taken to safeguard the
sick, even. though the premium amount
proved too small.
The proposals will be submitted to
the convention proper Of the State
medical society which begins tomor-
row.
