Questions Answered

Mrs. F. r. T.-There is no such
thing as specific brain food, but
nutritionists are convinced that
the quality and efficiency of the
functioning of the mind depends
partially on the character of the
food consumed. Mental efficiency
appears to be influenced by the
quantity and quality of the pro-
tein in the diet, and it has been
demonstrated that the vegetable
proteins, including cheese, milk
and eggs are superior in biologi-
cal value.
c. J. Kit is a fallacy to as
sumo that garlic is blood puri-

food for those who like it, but
it cannot be considered to possess
special health properties.

RECORDED BY MONKS

No one knows who wrote the
stories concerning the hero BeO-
wulf. The poem as we have it
today was recorded about the
Eighth century, but the events
which underlie the epic occurred
about five centuries before that.
By memory the legends came
down through the generations.

How 10 Obtoin Calcium

Milk is an outstanding source of
calcium. That is why it should
form the cornerstone of every bal
anced diet. Cheese, which is milk
in concentrated form, is likewise
notable in this respect, and one
and One-fourth ounces of Ameri-
can Cheddar cheese are the ap-
prOximate equivalent of an eight
ounce glass of milk. Leaf and
stem vegetables are richer in cal
cium than other vegetables or
fruits, but while their calcium has
been found to be well-absorbed by
adults, it is not so readily avail
able to children.
Among the vegetables, however,
there is a wide variation, turnip
tops and dandeiion green's provid-
ing unusually large amounts.

Adults Require Calcium

Adults have 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

The revival of Valentines "The

TO look funny nowadays. And the
generation of movie-gOers that has

he had been such a wOrld-beater.
Some of them rOared with laugh

lined. However, no matter what the
young folks thought of that picture
and the other Valentino revival,

brought mObs to the theaters and

Two Disputed Measures
In Spotlight Today
By GEORGE M. GREEN

RICHMOND, Va, March II.
Although the Virginia general as
sembly has but one more day be-
fore the scheduled adjournment
az midnight tomorrow, both the
House and Senate are today
faced with legislation that may
develop into a long fight on the
floors Of the two branches.
Legislators in the upper branch
ere primed for the fight of the
session this afternoon when the
State compensation board row
between Harry Byrd organization
followers and Governor Prices
supporters reaches the floor as
the State budget bill is placed on
a special continuing order at 4
o'clock.
JAIL REFORM UP
While the fight in the Senate
Is inevitable, it is considered
highly probable the House may
hit snag today on the Page jail
reform bill, voted down by the
House courts of justice committee
last night in executive session.
Provisions of the budget bill
were given final approval of the
Senate Finance Committee yes
terday following conference with
the Governor and was reported to
the floor still carrying an amend
ment to make the comptroller au-
tomatically chairman of the pO.
litically powerful State Compen-
sation Board instead Of leaving
with the Governor the power to
select the chairman.
Supporters Of the Governor have
served notice they would seek to
amend the appropriation bill to
fulfill the Governors wishes and
increase the appropriation for the
board chairman from 50, 400 to
$4,500 so the chief executive may
select a full-time man for this
post
BLOW TO PRICE
Old-line Byrd leaders dealt the
governor a stunning blow on the
floor of the house when they sue
ceeded in adopting an amendment
which would make the attorney
general an elective officer. the
third member of the board and
thus deprive the governor OF a
majority control over the board
which fixes the compensation OF
virtually every Salaried and fee
officer Of the State.
In an effort to effect compro-
mise, the Senate finance commit
tee adopted an amendment which
would make the comptroller auto
matically serve in the post with
out extra pay, but would increase
his salary from $1,000 to $1,000 for
his dual duties.
The comptroller is appointed by
