babies, beginning at the age OF
two or three weeks.
Mothers should be guided by the
advice of their physician in de-
termining when to start the use OF
a vitamin D preparation and what
quantities to give. But if they
want to give their babies the bless
ing bestowed on them by the sci
entists who discovered vitamin d,
they must not overlook this impor-
tant substance.
AS guardians of the health OF
both children and adults, mothers
should see to it that vitamin d
is supplied regularly through the
use of eggs and salmon; irradi-
ated foods and those fortified with
vitamin D; and if necessary, fish

ricketts,, another substance high in
fat-butter fat, did not. More re-
search work was necessary before
it was discovered that while but
ter was rich in vitamin A, cod
liver oil contained two vitamins.
one of which was later named
vitamin D.
Effect Of Sunlight
More work was necessary and
it took years of patient effort be-
fore science unraveled the mys-
terry of how sunlight could have
the same apparent effect in pre-
venting rickets as cod-liver oil.
Once nutritionists understood
how sunlight acting on a fatty SUBJ
stance in the skin could produce
vitamin D, however, it was not
difficult to carry the process a
step further and learn how to forti-
fly foods with a satisfactory con-
tent of vitamin D.
Today we have at our disposal
irradiated milk, or milk to which a
vitamin D concentrate has been
added. Margarine, too, has been
enriched not only with vitamin D,
but with vitamin A so that this
moderate-priced spread for bread
has been made an effective vita
min carrier.
Natural Food Sources Of Vitamin D
The richest natural sources of
vitamin D are the fish-liver oils,
including the liver-oil of the tuna.
swordfish, rock fish, salmon, hall
but, mackerel, cod and haddock.
The body oils of many fish also
furnish substantial amounts. That
accounts for the fact that canned
salmon has been regarded as such
a splendid food in the diet of chill
dren and adults. 1t is not only a
good source of protein and of en-
ergy values, but it contains sub
stantial amounts of the minerals,
calcium, phosphorus and iodine,
and has been found to be an un-
usually good food source of vita
min D.
Egg yolk contains small
amounts of vitamin D, and when
eaten regularly, the quantity is
enough to have a significant eff
feet in the diet of children.
Vitamin D Requirements
So important is vitamin D con-
sidered, that the United States
Children's Bureau advises that
cod-liver oil or some other form of
this. vitamin be supplied to all

Questions Answered

Miss G. Nj. L.-Yes, it is true
that sweet potatoes contain a
small amount of protein. In fact,
their protein is composed of four
amino acids known to be essential
to nutrition. Some of the protein
may be lost if the potato is boiled,
but it is entirely preserved when
the potato is cooked by dry heat.
Mrs. Nj. B.-Both cooked lentils
and baked kidney beans contain
over 20 per cent of carbohydrate.
Low carbohydrate vegetables in

Readers of this column may
have observed that the discovery
of number of the vitamins came
about chiefly through the efforts of
investigators to discover method
of treating or curing obscure nu-
tritional diseases. In most in
stances, however, carefully con-
trolled laboratory experiments
played their part in reaching the
ultimate goal after some clue had
been found as to what the mystic
rious substance might be that
helped to control a battling nutri-
tional disease. The discovery of
vitamin ID was no exception!
Vifamin D and Rickets
Vitamin D is associated init
mately with the prevention and
cure of ricketts,, the most devastat-
ing nutritional disease of children
in temperate climates. Indeed, it
is the moderate, and in some cases
| the small amount of sunshine in
the temperate zone that accounts
partially for the presence of
ricketS.
Historians have given us reason
to believe that this disease may
have existed in England even be-
fore the Roman conquest. Ger
tainly it appeared in a serious
form, both in England and in other
North European countries, in the
Seventeenth century. In fact, early
literature refers to it as the Eng
lish disease, and the early at
tempts to fathom its causes were
written in Latin by English and
Dutch doctors during the 1600's.
In ricketts,, the child's head
grows large and out of proportion
to the body, while the leg and
arm bones, and in severe cases
even the ribs, are bent and twisted
out of their normal shape.
Need for Calcium and Phosphorus
The two principal minerals re-
quired for constructing the bones
and teeth are calcium, obtained
chiefly from milk, cheese and
green leafy vegetables, and phos-
phorus, found in generous amounts
in eggs, whole grain cereals and
dried legumes. But one of the
things that made it so difficult for
scientists to determine the cause
of rickets was the fact that appar-
emily well fed children, who had
plenty of calcium and phosphorus,
frequently developed the disease.
Mystery Of Cod-Liver Oil
Cod-liver oil had been used for
many years because of it's sup
posedly 'tonic" or building"
properties, when it was observed
that regular doses of cod-liver
oil not only cured rickets in chill
dren, but also cured the CORE
spending disease in adults, called
osteomalacia, in which the bones
become soft as the calcium and
phosphorus already deposited in
them are withdrawn and excreted.
Fat and Vitamin D
One of the strangest paradoxes
to the scientists in their early
Investigations was the fact that
while cod-liver oil appeared to cure
The Coolidge examiner., 1938-12-22

perlmentS, seven
forms of vitamin ID
have been revealed
by science. And
scientists have also
solved the mystery
of how such widely

The Church And
The Community
By REV. jobs. KNUDSEN

Much has been written in praise of
the pioneer, and justly so. 1t would
be a sad day when we forgot the
memory of those who blazed the
trail and conquered a continent. To
their vision, courage, and endurance
we owe great debt of gratitude,
and although we also suffer severely
from their mistakes, their virtues far
overshadow their faults.
But song should also be sung
to another generation of men and
women. Their cause was not so
spectacular; they had no direct front
against the hardships of nature in
the raw; they did not have as great
a progress to show as the results of
they were asked to accomplish some
thing which the pioneer with all his
fine courage could not have done.
They are the sons and daughters
of the pioneer, the second generation.
They are the ones who had to settle
down and consolidate the gains and
repair the mistakes. They reaped
the fruits, yes, but they also reaped
the thorns. They had to be content
with consolidation where the pio-
neer demanded conquest.
The shadow of the pioneer hung
over them. They had listened to
the tales of great exploits. Yet, had
they followed the example of their
forerunners and left for new adven-
ture and conquest where a new
country would acclaim their fame,
what would have become of the work
that had been begun. They had to
renounce adventure for the task of
continuance. Had they failed, the
work of the pioneer would have
gone for naught.
The pioneering time in our COM
munity is over. To the vision, cour-
age, and endurance of the first gen.
GRAFTON we shall ever be grateful
What we need now is the vision,
courage, and endurance of a second
generation which faithfully CONSOLE
dates and continues the work that
has been begun. Our task is as
necessary as theirs.

In the meantime the cards may fall
so that Farr and Galento may take
the first big fight and Schmeling may
be compelled to wait until later in
the season.
Promoters are trying every trick
to let time pass before sending
Schmeling against Louis. They hope
Schmeling will be slow and rusty
when he swings for the champion
ship and they know every month
will count against him.
They even hope either Farr or
Galento will attain such popularity
through their next two or three fights
that they can dare insist Schmeling
meet one of them in an elimination
match for the right to meet Joe Louis.
There would be no fairness in this.
Schmeling has already earned the
right to challenge the champion; but
fairness is not one of the virtues of
boxing promoters.
Fans look upon boxing as a sport
but, to the promoter, it is cold bust
ness. There is no sporting instinct
in them.
In the meantime Jimmy Adamick
of Detroit, will be groomed to start
his march toward the top after all
the profit taking possibilities in Farr,
Galento and Schmeling have been
squeezed dry.
Jimmy is the crown prince but he
is still some distance away. They
are saving him for 1889. In the mean
time he will be permitted to build up
salable record against second rate
opposition.

Braddock. Farr will win, probably
by decisive margin in points rather
than by knockout.
Farr will then fight Max Baer.
Again Farr will win, and again on
points. In the meantime Tony Galen-
to, the Jersey night stick, will fight
and beat Harry Thomas. Subsequent
ly he may fight Bob Pastor. He will
win again.
In Germany Max Schmeling will
fight and beat Ben Foord, fair Eng
lish fighter Then Max will come to
this country and fight any opponent
likely to draw the biggest gate ex-
cepting Farr and Galento who are
being saved for bigger things than
warm-up fight for either Schmeling
or Louis.
Joe Louis will fight Matte Mann
1t is likely Louis will win but Mann
may cause him an unexpected amount
of trouble so that Louis, although
| the winner and still champion may
have less prestige after that fight than
he has now.
This is an unusual amount OF
heavyweight fighting for any single
winter. At the end of it Joe Louis
as champion, Max Schmeling as fore
most contender, Tommy Farr and
Tony Galento as reserve material will
be the top four.
John Henry Lewis, the overgrown
light heavyweight, is good enough to
crowd into this group but he will not
be permitted to show his ability. There
is no room in the picture for negro
contender so long as there is a negro
champion. Lewis will be held in re-
serve.

SnOwplow Does Good Work.

Walter Rydberg was here Friday
and Saturday to do snowplowing
on the Partridge township roads. The

is owned by Danforth township from
whom Mr.. Rydberg rents it. 1t is
attached to IL ton truck and has
a right hand wing pillow in addition
to the regular pillow mounted in front
of the truck. Friday afternoon they
plowed out 16 miles of road, going
over each mile twice and made sew
eral rounds on some of the bad places
where the snow had piled up rather
high.
Mr.. Rydberg charges So per hour
while on the job, and at this rate
the cost to the township was about
80 cents per mile On Saturday the
balance of the township roads were
plowed at a cost somewhat similar
to the first day. Mr.. Rydberg states
that the cost would have been even
less if the job had been done before
the snow had a chance to get packed
down as hard as it was. The secret
to success with a small outfit is OF
course that the blowing be done
just as soon as possible. In this con-

here to know that such pillow can
be purchased complete and attached

There are several trucks here suit
