Calcium Starvation

The mineral calcium is to the
human body what steel and stone
are to a building. It is necessary
to construct the bony framework.
The mother who fails to consume
adequate calcium before her baby
is born, or fails to give the child
adequate calcium throughout the
growing years, is as guilty as the
contractor who constructs school
building of poor materials.
without sufficient calcium, the
bones become soft and porous.
They break easily and knit slowly
after they are broken. They may
bend and twist during growth, so
that the child who is a victim Of
calcium deficiency may become
bow-legged and defOrmed, with a
malformed chest or enlarged fore
head. Rickets-that horrible de-
ficiency disease which causes
stunted mis-shapen bodies-may
develop. And so may tetany-an-
other scourge of childhood.

THE Seventy fifth congress
j brought its labors to close and
adjourned, thanked by President
Roosevelt for the constructive legis-
lation it had enacted. In Its one
special and two regular sessions
this congress set a peace-time rec
ord by appropriating more than 20
billion dollars.
Almost at the last moment the 3%
billion dollar relief and pump prim.
ing bill was enacted into law. The
house accepted senate amendment
boosting the appropriation for adj
ministrative expenses Of the Rural
Electrification administration from
$500, 900 to $3.50, 1000.
Agreement was reached on the
800 million dollar second deficiency
bill when the senate concurred In
the action of the house in knocking
out 1926, 900 to purchase additional
land for the Lake Tahoe National
park and 81 300, 900 for forestry.
Both senate and house repassed
over the Presidents veto the bill
continuing the 3h per cent interest
on Federal Land bank loans on farm
mortgages.
Scores of bills of varying degrees
of importance were lost in the con-
fusion of the last hours Of the ses-
sion. Among them was the bill au-
thorizing federal law enforcement
officers to tap wires to get evidence
of violations of law.
The relief and pump printing law
as enacted includes billion AS mil
lion dollars for the Works Progress
administration for a period Of eight
months, beginning July L; ITS mill
lion dollars for the Farm Security
administration; rs million dollars
for the National Youth administra-
ton, and 965 million dollars for the
Public Works administration. It au-
thorizes the PWA to lend up to 400
million dollars from the sale of Sc
curities pledged for previous PWA
loans. It increases the lending limit
of the United States Housing author
ity for low-cost housing from 500
million to 300 million dollars. It
appropriates 212 million dollars for
additional 'price adjustment" SUBJ
salaries to farmers.

Crooked Defective Teeth

The teeth, too, depend upon cal
cium for the soundness of their
structure. When this precious
mineral is inadequately provided,
the baby teeth may soon decay;
the permanent teeth may come
in crowded and unsightly-and
quickly develop cavities.
There are also many other ways
that calcium deficiency may han
dicap your children. For this min
eral is intimately concerned with
all the body processes. 1t in
creases the strength and pulsa-
tions of the heart; helps the blood
to coagulate in case Of injury,
thus effectively aiding in prevent
ing hemorrhage. 1t strengthens
the resistance of the body in fever

List of Culcium-Rich Foods

have prepared list Of foods
rich in calcium which ] shall
gladly send to homemakers upon
request. I urge every woman to
write for this list and use it in
planning the daily diet of herself,
her husband and children.
You really need such list in
order to avoid the grave conse-
quences of calcium deficiency, for
so many of our common foods are
calcium poor that it is possible for
a diet to be abundant and varied,
and still be inadequate in respect
to calcium.
The list of um-containing
foods will help you do perfect
job of building strong, fine bodies
for your children.
There is no joy like the joy Of
creating perfect, healthy children.
The architect and the sculptor
stand in awe before the realiza-
ton of their dreams. But you, the
mothers of children, the builders
of their bodies, you are the might
lest of all. A diet adequate in cal
cium, for you and your children,
will help you build beautifully,
wisely and well. Your reward will
be the joy, the pride, the heart
warming satisfaction of having ac-
cOmplished a worthwhile purpose.

Terrible Train Wreck

hLYMPIAN, crack passenger
~ train of the Milwaukee road
bound from Chicago to Tacoma,
WASH, crashed through a flood
weakened trestle over Custer creek,
near Saugus, Mont, and at least 40
persons persisted, most of them be-
ing drowned in a submerged tour
ist sleeper. About 65 others were
injured.
This was the worst railroad wreck
in America in recent years, and it
sadly married the safety record of
the Milwaukee road which had not
lost paying passenger in accidents
in the previous 20 years.
The eleven-car train ran into q
cloudburst near Saugus but the
crew had no warning of the trestle's
condition until the engine plunged
through the span, dragging sew
eral cars after it.

Nazis Attack Jews

ERMAN officials and German
~ mobs were making life almost
unbearable for the Jews. In Berlin
and many other localities Jewish
shops were smashed and daubed
with paint, and hundreds of Jews
were arrested and sent to concen-
tration camps. The Jews were
panic stricken and foreign consul
lates were thronged by men and
women trying to get permission to
60 to other countries.
It was reliably reported that the
secret police were ordered to make
a checkup Of all Jews in Greater
Germany.

Adults Require Calcium


Adults have a vital need for cal
cium. A lack of this mineral not
only results in defective teeth, but
may also be responsible for nerv-
BUSINESS, quivering and twitching
of the muscles and defective heart
action.
To be normal, the full-grown hui
man body must contain more cal
cium than any other mineral ele-
ment. Yet, every individual is, of
necessity, born calcium-poor. For
if the bones were as rigid as they
must eventually become, the or
deal of birth would be too difficult
for both mother and child.

Just what the title indicates is the story of The Singing Marine, :" which, with Dick Powell as it's star will have its local premiere at the Coliseum Theater Sunday
 Dick is a Marine-a modest buck private at the San Diego base and he can sing. So his comrades get up a purse to send him to New York to have a try at Major Rowes' anna teur hour,
 At the same time, on her own, Dicks sweetheart essays to enter her voice into the competition. This is Doris Weston, a lovely and tal- ented newcomer to movies.
 She doesn't get by. The Majors famous gong stops her. But Dick becomes a tremendous success.
 That was just too bad It goes to Dicks head. Spoiled by the adula- tion Of innumerable women, and the fawning of chiselers who sur round him, the young Marine for gets his comrades out on the Pa cific Coast.
 But after all he's only on a leave of absence from the Marines, and when, at the end of his frlough he's shipped with the rest of his company to China, he has a chance to redeem himself with splendid bit of heroism, which restores him to everyone's good graces.
