Almost everyone has heard that
iodine is the mineral which helps
to prevent that disfguring en-
largement of the neck, known as
simple goiter. But few people re-
alize that it is the principal con-
stituent of thyroxin, secretion of
the thyroid gland, and that the
thyroid functions normally only
when sufficient iodine is available.
A wide variety of physiological
disorders have been laid to iodine
hunger. Obesity is frequently the
result of thyroid disturbance. Spe-
cialists contend that stubborn skin
diseases are associated with dis
orders of this gland. Many people
are accused of laziness who are
really suffering from thyroid de-
ficiency. And competent authori-
ties claim that the thyroid like

and emotional tendencies.
Iodine is found chiefly in sea.
food and in fruits and vegetables
grown near the sea-. In inland
regions, where soil and water are
poor in iodine, health authorities
frequently add it to the drinking
water. And the use of iodized salt
is also recommended. BY these
simple measures, thousands of
growing children can be saved
from the disastrous results of TO-
dine deficiency.
In general, it can be said that if
the minerals calcium, phosphorus,
iron and iodine are supplied in
adequate amounts, the other min
erals will be automatically fur
nished.

In addition to oxygen, carbon,
hydrogen and nitrogen, the body
contains a wide variety of mineral
materials, which are necessary to
its proper functioning-and even
to life itself. The list includes
calcium, phosphorus, potassium,
sulphur, sodium, chlorine, magne-
SUM, iron, manganese, iodine and
copper. All these substances must
be furnished to the growing child

generous amounts must also be

~Calcium-Captain Of Minerals


Calcium deserves it's ranking
position as the captain of the min
erals, because it builds the bones,
or body framework. And the bony
skeleton is to the human being
what steel is to a building. CAL
cium is also the chief constituent
of the teeth and upon healthy
teeth rests the health of the diges-
tive system and, in turn, the en-
tire body. For food that is improp-
erly masticated is imperfectly d.
gested and fails to nourish prop
erly.
About SO per cent of the calcium
in the body is found in the teeth
and bones. If the body does not
receive an adequate supply of this
mineral in prenatal life and dur
ing the growing years, the bones
will be porous, distorted and cas-
lily broken, and the teeth will de-
velop cavities and eventually may
fall out.
In addition to being the princi-
pal material for making and
maintaining the bones and teeth,
calcium increases the strength
and pulsations of the heart and
helps the blood coagulate in case
of injury, thus keeping you and
your loved ones from bleeding to
death. That is why an extra sup
ply of calcium is fed to patients
just before an operation.

A Splendid "Service"
for Floors

Floors receive rougher treat
ment than any other part of the
homeland it is floors that show
up to poorest advantage when
neglected-best advantage, when
properly cared for! Up to now,
attractive floors have required
some little time and attention, but
this is no longer necessary. For
into the field of domestic prepara-
tons has come DISTINGUISHING
wax liquid-smooth, simple to
apply, lovely to see. This remark
able preparation goes on easily,
quickly, and dries in 20 minutes!
Its results are 4-fold: The floors
ri protected-they are preserved
they stay freshly-clean longer
and they are beautiied! A quality
self-polishing wax protects and
preserves, by forming a film over
the surface-hard enough to with
stand friction and grinding wear
and-tear. It induces floors to stay
clean longer, because dirt and
grease cannot become imbedded
in the wood. It beauties, be-
cause it is shimmering, transpar-
ent, and brings out the natural
beauty of the wood. And what
more could the home-maker ask
for? There are, however, various
qualities of self-polishing wax
available. Only the best should
be used, for both the appearance
and condition of the floors. But
the finest self-polishing wax is a
joy to use-its lasting results a

Iron-Kinq Pin Of Them All


But measured in terms of food essen.
ials, iron is king pin of them all. 1t
is the supreme element in nutrition
because it is necessary for the lorna.
fion of the h~emoglobin or red pigment
in the blood. And it is the hemoglobin
,chich carries purifying oxygen TO every
cell in the body. Recently, it has been
discovered that copper is required for
the proper utilization OF iron.
RED blooded" is a term un-
derstood by everyone to denote
health and strength, and it is iron
that makes us red blooded. When
your children grow pale and list
less, lose their pep and lack ap-
petite, it is likely that they are
starving for iron. If you become
short of breath and "pant" when
going up hill, or upstairs, even
though there is nothing wrong
with your heart or lungs, the
chances r that there is INSULT

not enough to take up an adequate
supply of oxygen and carry it to
the millions of cells throughout
the body.
There is no excuse for cheating
yourself or your children of a full
measure of iron, for this mineral
can easily be obtained from liver,
egg yolk, whole grain cereals, mo-
lasses, dried fruits, dried peas and
beans, nuts, lean meats and green
vegetables.

Calcium Builds Will Power

There is a close relationship be-
tween calcium and sound, healthy
nerves. And this precious sub
stance likewise helps us to con-
centrate mentally-it strengthens
our will power-and assists us in
acquiring that do or die" attitude
toward life, which is essential in an
age when we must all struggle or
60 under.
Yet despite its importance, it is
estimated by that outstanding au-
thority. Henry C. Sherman, Pro-
lessor of Nutrition at Teachers
College, Columbia University, that
one-half of the American people
even those with plenty of money
are literally starving for calcium,
because they do not know the food
sources of this vitality important
mineral.

indispensable Phosphorus

indispensable phosphorus
Like calcium, phosphorus is re-
quired by the body in relatively
large amounts, and like calcium,
it is especially important in the
diet of children, because it is de-
posted in the bones, along with
calcium, as calcium phosphate.
Phosphorus is indispensable for
all the active tissues in the body
and plays an important part in
regulating the neutrality of the
blood. 1t can be obtained from
whole grain cereals, eggs, dried
beans, cheese, lean meats, and
root and leafy vegetables.

are milk and cheese, which is

 Aided by FelOn
 Two of the many islands the priest controlled with money sup piled by Pierre Cecil, escaped con- vict from the French penal colony at New Caledonia, were Christmas and Tanning. The economically important lagoons of these islands now are under British jurisdiction
 Cecil, who reached the Fiji group by sailing across 1000 miles of Pa cific waters in an open boat, gave Father Rougier $500,000 for the priests's help in obtaining a pardon The cleric built fortune of fabu- lous proportions in copra. He pur- chased Tanning Island from Will liam Greig, a Scotch resident of Honolulu, for $350,0OO and later sold it to a British syndicate.
 U. S. DiscOverer
 The sale to British interests was made despite the fact Capt. Ed mund Tanning, discoverer of the atoll, was an American. Rougier later leased the island from the British government. His adopted son, bearing the same name and residing in France, now holds the lease. Father Rougier renounced the church when reprimanded for marrying Cecil and Fijian girl He died five years ago, still a dominating figure in the Pacific's fantastic history.

HANKOW, March 31.-One hun dred and fifty thousand Japanese attacking Suchow began general retreat to the north. The attack on Suchow was abandoned because Chinese guerillas stopped the move ment of supplies from the north over the Tientsin-Pukow Railroad.
 As the retreat of the invaders be- gan, the Chinese managed to cut off brigade of Japanese. The Japan ese detachment sent to help the cornered troops was defeated and forced to join the main army in re- treat. The cornered Japanese bri- gade was short of both food and munitions.

Mir. and Mrs. Louis Soukup Violate Entry
 Regulations

A leisurely air journey from Port land, oregon, to Valdez, Alaska, to day was interrupted and marred for MT. and Mrs. Louis Soukup by 5000 fine assessed by the Customs Office here.
 Soukup and his wife flew to Ju- neau from Vancouver, B. C., arriv- ing her Monday afternoon at the airport in their six-place Travelair monoplane, and landing here was fined, according to the Customs Of- flee, for failing to give notice in advance of a foreign arrival and landing at an airport not designated as Customs port of entry
 Soukup is flying to Valdez to make his home in that city. An aviator by the name of w Harrell will come up later and fly Soukup's ship com mercially while Soukup examines mining properties.
 Formerly associated with Pan American and Grace Airways in Chile, Soukup was in charge of ni- trate transfers out of Taltal.

She soloed in four and a half hours and spells me off for half hour stretches now We've seen a lot of beautiful scenery and have enjoyed the trip a lot-except of course, this regrettable blunder I made in not thoroughly understanding the cus- toms regulations
