CPRINGS in furniture seldom
- break. The Irvine that holds
them does break and webbing
wears out throwing the springs
out of position.
To set the springs you will need
ball of Irvine and needle such
as used by the upholsterer,
enough webbing to replace the old,
tacks b-inch long with large
heads, block of wood for stretch
ing the webbing, tack hammer
and a tack litter. Remove the cover
from the seat carefully so that it
may either be used again or
serve as pattern. Most of the
padding may also be used. OBJ
serve how each layer of material
is fastened in place, so that you
may put it back the same way.
Remove the springs and all old
tacks. Tack the first strip Of web
bling to one edge of the bottom of
the frame, letting the end extend
IL inch beyond the edge, then
fold the end over the first tacks
and tack again as at A. Draw
the webbing across the frame US
ing the block of wood as a lever
to stretch webbing taut as at B.
When all the strips have been
stretched and tackled across the
frame one way, stretch strips of
webbing across the other way
weaving these over and under the
first ones as at C.. Now, sew the
bottom of each spring to the web
bling with the upholsterer's Irvine
and curved needle as shown in
this diagram.
Next, turn the frame right side
up, drive tacks part way in along
the edges; then tie the springs
across each way with upholster-
er's Irvine as shown in diagram C..
The Irvine is tied to the tacks
and to each spring and regulates
the height of the springs-the out
side edges usually being lower
than the center to make rounded
top. When the springs are regu-
lated evenly, drive the tacks in;
then replace burlap or muslin COW
erings and padding.

cry is kept functioning only by
an ever-present supply of fuel.
For, as long as life continues
even when you are lying perfectly
still-you need fuel to carry on
the internal work of the body.
Activity Demands
Energy Foods
Every type of daily activity, in
Guiding work and exercise, re-
quires additional fuel. If you walk
slowly, you expend twice as much
energy as when you sit still. And
when you walk fast, you may use
up four, five or six times as much
energy.
The chief fuel, or energy pro-
ducing foods, are the carbohy-
drates-that is, the starches and
sugars; and fats. Protein also
has some fuel value, but its pri-
mary function is to build and re-
pair tissue.
Carbohydrates are quick burn
ing. They might be compared to
the flare of match in a dark
room, which gives bright light for
an instant, but is soon ex-
tinguished. Fat, on the other hand,
burns slowly, like lamp whose
wick is turned low.

WHAT to EAT and WHY

scientifically planned diet frequently

looking the fats contained in milk, but
ter, and other foods.
Relation of Fat
To Health
Fats are so necessary to the
body economy that it is no exag-
geration to say that without fat,
life in it's higher forms, is inn
possible. The noted Arctic ex-
plorer, Stefansson, found that he
could exist satisfactorily on an
all-meat diet, provided he ate lib
orally Of fat. On diet of all lean
meat, he became violently ill
within week.
Besides furnishing concentrated
energy values, fats help to create
the fatty tissue which cushions
the nerves and abdominal organs,
and forms the pleasing contours
of face and figure.
Because it leaves the stomach
more slowly than proteins and
carbohydrates, fat retards the di-
gestion of these food groups some
what, and thus gives staying power
to meal. At the same time it
promotes the flow of pancreatic
juice and bile, thus helping in the
assimilation of other foods. Foods
rich in fat include butter, cheese,
egg yolk, cooking fats and oils,
margarine, olives, pastry, peanut
butter, most nuts except chestnuts
and lichi nuts, various kinds of
sausage and fried foods.
Anger Destroys
Fat Reserves
Experiments have demonstrated
why nervous, irritable individuals
are usually thin. while those with
a serene temperament often ac-
cumulate weight. 1t has been
proven that anger and fright in
crease the amount of fat in the
blood and remove a corresponding
amount of fat from it's usual stor-
age place beneath the skin. A fit
of anger may take off more fat
than an hours exercise, or two or
three days of enforced diet. Thus
the person who allows himself to
become upset continually with
draws the fat reserve from his
body. Such persons could profit,
perhaps, by taking more of the
! fat-forming foods.
But whether the members of your
family are good natured, or irritable,
young or old, they need constant sup
ply OF fuel toods-at every meal, every
day. Fuel foods produce energy-and
energy is the motive po,uer of life and
york and thought.
g WNu-C. Houston Goudiss-1938
White Bluffs spokesman. [volume] (White Bluffs, Wash.) 1907-1938, 1938-03-25

of the fats and carbohydrates, due
to the craze for dieting. Some of
the results of disregarding the alb
solute necessity for these foods
are extreme irritability, and
greater susceptibility to fatigue,
nervous diseases, tuberculosis and
other. infections.
Too Much Fuel
Causes Overweight
1t is true, however, that an excess of
fuel foods will tend to produce over.
Weight For if we assimilate them,
and do not utilize their potential energy
in muscular effort, they will be stored
as tat-usually in most inconpenient
locations! On the other hand, an excess
OF any food is detriment Therefore
the goal should be enough, but not too
much, of all necessary foods.
Since both carbohydrates and
fats are energy foods, one might
expect them to play an inter-
changeable role in the diet. To a
certain extent, they do, although
fat, being more concentrated, pro-
vldes two and one-fourth times as
much fuel value as an equal
weight of carbohydrate.
But because of the variation in
the way these materials are han
died by the body, it is generally
considered that health is best
served when 40 to SO per cent of
the total energy value of foods is
provided in the form of carbohy-
drate and 30 to 35 per cent in the
form of fats.
Carbohydrates Are
Quickest Fuel
Carbohydrates, which originate
chiefly in plant life, are readily
converted into heat and muscle
energy. Foods rich in carbohy-
drates include bread, potatoes,
macaroni, rice, cooked and ready
to-eat cereals, peanuts, dried and
preserved fruits, sugars and
syrup.
Sugar furnishes heat more
quickly and more abundantly than
any other food. But it has a ten
dency to dull the appetite and is
also apt to cause fermentation.
Therefore, a large measure of our
heat and energy is best secured
from starchy foods such as bread,
cereals, macaroni and potatoes.
Quick energy can also be OBJ
tanned from the easily digested
sugars of fresh and dried fruits,
such as prunes, apricots, raisins
and fully ripened bananas.
Here is an interesting and important
point ,Uhich is frequently overlooked in
