Overea+inq Saps Vitality

Don't overeat. The task of han
ding excess food is burden to
the body at any season. In hot
weather, it will cause the body
temperature to mount along with
the thermometer, and may result
in a serious upset. 1t is also adj
visable to cut down somewhat on
the quantity of heat and energy
producing foods consumed-that
is the carbohydrates and fats.

ground. In the mixer the casein
undergoes a dissolving process with
chemical reagents and is sent on to
the maturing and fltering tanks.
Through the spinning machine the
casein now takes on the consistency
of flaments which are first cut,
then washed, then dried. The raw
material is then finished and ready
for that first Transformation which
is common to all fibers.

applications for it; their &C
compishments to date make
an amazing story.
If you look up casein in the
dictionary it will probably
tell you it's an organic COM
pound allied to albumin, found
in milks of all kinds. The pro-
portion is 3 per cent and it sep
arates from the milk as curd,
which is usually used for
making cheese. And cheese
made from skinned milk,
well pressed, is nearly pure
coagulated casein.
It's hard to believe that man
can make cheese and foun-
tain pen barrels out of the same
product.
But that's only part of the story.
Imagine making wool cloth out of
it, tool!
This latest conquest in the COM
mercial application of casein halls
from Italy, where the production of
artificial wool from cows milk has
gone far beyond the experimental
stage; so far, in fact, that the great
Snia Viscosa rayon plant at Milan
is building a huge addition to its
factory for the production of this
new artificial fabric on a CONNER
cial scale.
Man Copies Nature.
It's incredible that artificial wool
and a very fine grade of wool, at
that-can be made from milk. But
we have only to reflect that the new
1y born lamb that depends for susie
nance entirely upon its mother eve,
is constantly producing the wool
upon its little body from its moth
er's milk.
So the scientists who perfected
this process have only been attempt
ing to simulate a process which ma
ture has been carrying on for mil
lions of years. They've found that
cows milk, goats milk, sleeps
milk, and no doubt other milks, are
satisfactory for making wool fab
RIGS. And the process has been per-
fected to such an extent that the fin
ished product gives a result very
close to the actual natural wool,
chemically and to the touch.
This development is remarkably
interesting, but it need not cause
American sheep raisers to quake in
their boots. Although science has
found way to speed up the wool
growing process, the method will
always be complicated. Yet its sue
cess may equal that of rayon, an
artificial fabric which has assumed
an important position during the
past 10 years.
The new wool cloth made from
milk casein comes in all colors and
patterns, in different weights, and
is much less expensive than ordi-
nary wool. 1t has an advantage over
natural wool in that it does not
shrink and for this reason Italy is
making it into soldiers uniforms,
underwear and hosiery.
Fashion models in Italy show the
very latest styles in this new cloth.
To see a shop window filed with
models clad in gay outing sweaters
and sport suits, all made from cows
milk, is to be convinced against
ones own convictions that such a
thing is possible.
Good to the Last Drop.
The modern dairyman wastes
very little from each gallon of milk
his farmers deliver to the door. At
the italian wool plant, for example,
milk is separated from the butter
fat, so butter is one of the by
products of wool manufacture
Whey is another by-product; its
acidity is neutralized and it is fed
to pigs. Each rs gallons of milk
produces about 10 pounds of butter
and 71a pounds of dry casein. In
wool manufacture, dry casein pro-
duces approximately its own weight

COOLING Foods

should be reduced to minimum.
But there is no closed season for
growth in children, and moreover,
they play so constantly and in
dulge in such strenuous exercise
that they break down body tissue
very rapidly. Adults also have a
constant need for protein to re-
build the millions of cells that are
worn out daily.
1t is desirable, however, to
avoid rich, fatty meats and to
select protein foods that are more
easily digestible, as chicken,
lamb, lean beef and lean fish. Spe-
cial emphasis should be placed on
milk, cheese and eggs. These
splendid foods not only supply
Grade A protein, in an easily di-
gested form, but also fortify the
diet with minerals and vitamins.
x
Liquids Essential
To help you keep cool, the sum-
mer diet must include an abun-
dance of liquids. These are neces-
sary to make up for the large
amounts of moisture lost from the
body through increased perspira-
ton.
Liquids may be taken in the
form of milk, fruit juices and COOL
ing drinks made from pure water
and packaged beverage crystals
containing dextrose, fruit acid, fla
voring and coloring.
q
Hot Weather and Vitamin G
Two European investigators re-
Gently found that exposure to high
temperatures causes a so per cent
loss in vitamin C from the body
tissues. And lowered vitamin G
reserves are partially responsible
for that tired feeling so often ex-
perienced in warm weather. Their
research indicates that drinking
orange or lemon juice, which are
rich in vitamin C, actually helps
to mitigate the effect of the heat.
q
Choose Cold Drinks Carefully
A cold drink is comforting on a
hot day. And in addition, sweet
ened beverages help to relieve IA
tigue, for their carbohydrate con-
tent supplies available energy.
Sugar is the least heating of the
energy producing foods, for less
than one-sixteenth of the energy
it supplies to the body is con-
verted into heat. The rest goes
into brain and muscle power.
Therefore, one good way to pre-
vent needless fatigue in summer
is to take a cool, moderately
sweetened drink whenever you
feel tired during the day. This
will satisfy thirst and ward off
exhaustion like a rest by the road
after a long hard tramp.
Too highly sweetened bever-
ages, however, may be heating to
the body, though they are cooling
to the palate. For this reason, it
is advisable for homemakers to
mix their own cool drinks SO that

Compared to the engine in your
body, the one in your car is a
crude, rough affair that can stand
no end of punishment. Moreover,
the automobile is driven for GER
tain length of time and then per-
mitted to rest. But the marvellous
mechanism which transforms
your food into blood, bone, mus
Gle, and your capacity for thought
and action is never wholly at
rest.
q
importance Of the Rieh+ Food
If the automobile engine re-
quires special attention, how
much more important to stoke
your body engine with food suited
to the weather!
No one would think of going
about in midsummer wearing the
same garments that were worn all
winter. Yet many women continue
to serve the same type of meals
which were required to keep the
body warm in winter. Such a
practice is sure to make you mis-.
cradle. But more than that, II
lowers resistance and may, there,
fore, lead to illness.
Il
Beating the Heat
There are several factors tc
bear in mind when planning the
hot-weather diet. The first secret
of keeping cool is to supply the
body machinery with food fue.
that can be utilized with the least
expenditure of energy.
Warm weather is responsible
for muscular relaxation in the di.
gestive tract, as well as other
parts of the body. And you run
the risk of digestive upsets, with
their discomfort and health haz.
ards, unless you make every eff.
fort to lessen the work of your
digestive system.
Eat lightly of rich fatty meats,
pastries. rich cakes, sauces and
gravies. At all times, choose cas-
lily digestible foods.

"Snow White" Stays
Some More.

NOW it's review day again, and
again it's time to say something
about Snow White and the Seven
Dwarfs," what with the picture en-
barking upon its fifth week at Keith's.
But there's nothing new that can be
said. The synonyms for perfect are
consummate. Incompatible, match
less. superlative, inimitable. superb,
surprising and a lot more-and Snow
White" Is all of that. The synonyms
for resplendent are brilliant, gorgeous,
lustral, sparkling. scintillant and a
lot more-and Snow White" Is all
of that-and q lot more.
If you haven't seen the poignant,
beautiful and all-incompassing Walt
Disney screen translation of the fairy
tale you have been passing up the
grandest experience the cinema has
provided 80 far. Snow White" Is
the 10 best pictures of 1888. Dopey
Is the greatest screen actor there ever
was. and the other dwarfs are run
ners-up, and Snow White Is the best
Of all possible heroines. And the
only thing that might conceivably
make us retract any of these remarks
would be Mr.. Disney's next picture.
The man who can make Snow White"
might even be able to top it.
And added to Keith's bill is the
latest photoplay chapter in the biog-
raphy Of the Dionne quintuplets. II

same program with Snow White and
the Seven Dwarfs" these five COM
pletely adorable sweethearts can.

At Palace
Happy Landing in
Second Week,
Entertains.

- ONJA HENIE having achieved
the status she has among Holly
woods dream children and her
- popularity with the film fans
being what 1t is, 1t Is no great surprise
that Happy Landing" has now gone
into second week at Loew's Palace.
This third Of Sonja's pictures is in
the same groove land just as enter
taining) as the two she made before.
It's light-hearted, frivolous comedy
romance, whose chief claim to fame
is that 1t is frothy and unpretentious,
has a carefree manner and presents
numerous opportunities for Its central
luminary to don her skates and skim
about a slab Of ice.
This last is the important item. Mr..
Daryl Zanuck can cast his skating
star in simple boy-meets-girl yarns
as long as he wants to, just so they
are sugar-coated and easy to take,
and just so he devotes considerable
footage to Miss Henie on ice. Figure
skating as this personable blond lass
does 1t Is the last word in bodily grace
and watching her is an exciting ex-
perience. She is at her best, too, when
she is all alone and is permitted to
perform the amazing intricacies which
won her Olympic championship and
some of the thrill of watching her is
lost when she is submerged under
one of Mr. Zanuck's mammoth ballets,
wherefore it Is great pleasure to re-
port that Miss Henie is granted solo
spots in Happy Landing" There's not
as much Of her skating as any number
OF her admirers probably desire, but
still a lot.
When Miss Henie is not exciting the
audience with her flashing skill Happy
Landing" devotes itself to a rather
conventional yarn about little Nor
wegian girl who fell in love with an
egotistical band leader and took seven
reels to discover she really loved the
band leaders manager, who was a
nice guy. 1t has some gay moments
OF comedy, especially one contributed
by Billy Gilbert, and there's a fine
characterization OF the band leader by
Cesare Romero to brighten the pro-
ceedings. Don Ameche does a better
Job than he's done before and makes
the lad who gets the girl really like
able, an achievement for Mr.. Ameche
as far as we're concerned. H. M.
