Miss b. w. Jas a rule, no
special consideration need be CIV
en- to the amount of sulphur in the
diet. That is because sulphur in
food is found almost entirely in
the form of protein, and in a
well-balanced diet which supplies
sufficient protein, the require
ments for sulphur will be ade-
quately met.
Mrs. b. Between the ages
of 60 and 70, and indeed thereaft-
er, there is a gradual decrease in
the need for energy. All the body
processes function more slowly.
The amount of proteins, minerals
and vitamins is also less, as no
new tissue is being formed. An
excess of food is less readily ham
died by the body in later years, so
it is advisable for older people to
guard carefully against over-in-
diligence in food.

Is Your Child Law?

We often hear mothers complain
that their children are lazy in
cold weather and they seem
to have less pep and energy than
in other seasons. If by that they
mean that their children are
less active, it may be that this
can be attributed in part to the
bleak, shorter days that do not al
ways invite outdoor play. But
sometimes a child displays such
a reduction in his activities as to
appear indOlent. Then the moth
er must seek the physical or emo
tiOnal factors that may be re-
spOnsible. For true laziness sug-
gests a body that is not function
ing normally.
Quite possibly the chi1d's diet is
not meeting his bodily require
ments. An undernourished child
usually tires easily and is dis
inclined to exert himself. The
food may be adequate as to guam
tity, but not as to quality. For
example, a diet that is too highly
concentrated, contains too little

bulk or cellulose, may cause a
tendency to faulty elimination.
This, in turn, is frequently re-
SponSible for lassitude. The rem
edy is often a simple dietary
change-the addition of a salad to
the daily diet; or possibly the
use of stewed dried fruits in addi-
ton to a fresh fruit or fruit juice
daily. Of course, the child should
also have two servings of vegeta-
bles besides potatoes, one of
which should be of the green
leafy variety. Also a quart of milk
daily; breads and cereals, at least
half of which may preferably be
the whole grain variety; an egg
daily or at least three or four
weekly; one serving of meat, fish
or chicken, and another serving
of protein food, such as cheese.
Some form of vitanin D should
be included in the diet of young
children, especially during the
winter months.
1t is also most important that
children follow a daily routine that

Guard Against Frostbife

OVer-eXpOSure must be avoided,
particularly in cold, damp wealth
er. For under these conditions,
doctors warn, there is always a
danger of frostbite. They say that
whenever the temperature falls
below 8 degrees Fahrenheit, chill
dren should not be permitted to
play outdoors. If they do, the cold
may act upon the tissues SO that
part of the body is deprived of it's
blood supply. This is most likely
to occur in the fingers, toes, nose
or ears which thereupOn become
frozen. The combination of wind
and low temperature is especially
dangerous and frostbite frequently
occurs at temperatures up to IA
degrees Fahrenheit when there is
strong wind.
Mothers should be on guard
against frostbite when the tenn
perature is below "a degrees Fair
enheit, however, and at all times
during the winter, see that chill
dren are warmly clad. This need
not mean that they are so bundled
up as to preclude the possibility
of active play. Suitable clothing
consists of garments which pro-
vide warmth and protection
against dampness, without con-
StrictiOn at anV point.
Two layers of wool, such as
that provided oy wooden sweat
er and playsuit are considered
preferable to one too-bulky gar
ment. Feet and hands should, of
course, be well projected.

WHAT to EAT and WHY.

includes plenty of time for sleep.
And for younger children day
time nap is usually advised.
Mothers must give attention to
the children's health. But let them
give some consideration to their
own. The tired, nervous mother
is very apt to transfer some OF
her own fatigue and nervousness
to her child. So in arranging your
child's rest periods and diet, in
looking after proper habits OF
elimination, make sure that Moth
er, too and better still every
member of the family fol-
lows this same sound health pro-
gram.

Don't Overhead the House

Only a little less serious are
the consequences of dry, over
heated indoor air. 1t is unfortu-
nate that so many people keep
their rooms entirely too warm in
winter. This not only widens the
gap between indoor and outdoor
temperatures, but may be ex-
tremely irritating to the delicate
membranes of the nose and
throat. Most authorities consider
an indoor temperature of about 68
degrees Fahrenheit satisfactory.

To help her children main
tain top health and vitality, a
mother must constantly be
alert to the various factors
that help produce this ideal

fatigue and improper diet.

heated to an outdoor temperature
that may be below freezing.
While cool, outdoor air is slim
ulating to children in normal
health, some children withstand
it much less successfully. This is
particularly true of those who are
improperly nourished; who are
over-fatigued or suffer from poor
circulation.
When it is very cold outdoors, it
is wise to have children come in
from their play periodically to
warm up. And if a child appears
to suffer from the cold unduly, it
is wise to have a physician check
up on his health.

Comfortable House Dress.
This dress is so easy to make
that you'll turn out half a dozen
of it in practically no time; it's
diagram design that you can COM
plete in a few hours. And it's
so easy to work in that you won't
be satisfied with less than half a

waistline that looks slim, a skirt
with sufficient width, all assure
freedom for action. It's easy to
put on, too, as well as to iron, be-
cause it buttons down the front.
Percale, calico and gingham are
good materials for this.

you look slim and supple. A seal
loped closing, edged with braid or

Thomaston Sports
By JACK WATERS

With one of the largest squads in recent years reporting, the 1939 edi- ton of the high school basketball team started drills this week in pre- paration for an eighteen game schedule which gets under way Mo- vember 24 About fifty candidates turned out for the first practice ses- sion Tuesday night and according to those who make life study of grave international problems, there are three reasons for the large number. Reading from left to right and with no time out for the pause that re- freshes, they are, the presence of a new high school, new gym and a new coach Of the three we are in- clined to place a great amount of emphasis on the latter. Ed Stuart who succeeded Mandy Green as ath- letic coach, has already made an im- pressive showing. One of his first acts was to put soccer back on the sports program after a fifteen year absence and his latest move is the arranging of basketball game with the alumni, a parctice which was abandoned locally sometime ago.
 Following is the complete basket ball schedule: Nov. A, Alumni: Dec. l, South Windsor; Dec. 8, Thomaston at Terryville; Dec. 12, Seymour; American School for Deaf; Dec. q, Litchfield Jan. 5, Themaston at South Windsor; Jan. 12, Thomaston at Watertown; Jan. 16, Canton; Jan. 19, Terryville; Jan. 23, Newington; Jan. 26,, Thomaston at American School for Deaf; Feb. 2, Thomaston at Portland; Feb. 6, Thomaston at Canton; Feb. g, Watertown; Feb. IA, Thomaston at Newington; Feb. Is, Thomaston at Litchfield; and Feb. 2l, Portland.
 Local social circles received sud- den jolt recently with the announce ment that a new organization was being formed. This new group, var iously known as the South End Ath-
 letic club, the Stags and Dams Soda jerkers, meets every Monday night and after Peck OBrien opens the session with a chorus of My Wild

BIG GREEN RATED ' TO 5 CHOICE
 OVER YALE FOE
Offensive Record of Ellis Poor; Easy for H. c.
 B. C. Tomorrow
BY TOM NOONAN United Press Staff COrrespOndent)

United Press Staff CorrespOndent) Boston, Nov. 3 - (U.PD - When Lan indicated team meets 500 club. it's natural to string along with the better record. But form may be in for another licking in tomorrow's Ivy League clash between unbeaten Dartmouth and surprising Yale at New Haven, Conn.
 The Indians from Hanover's hills swoop down on the Bowl, boasting record of four wins and one tie with three straight shutouts to their credit. Added to that impressive showing, their slate is clean since 1885 in bowl competition.
 Yale, moreover, has scored but B points against its opponents 48 while defeating Columbia and Army and losing to Pennsylvania and Mich- igan. Then too, the Ellis were con- sidered one of the weaker Ivy Leaguers at the seasons start. Hence, gambling money has made the Bulldog 7-5 underdog.~ Hard To Guess Yet Dartmouth has failed to im- press extensively though amassing 105 points to date. The experts dis regard the 75 points the Big Green tailed against mediocre opposition in it's first two games and consider the other three contests in which Dartmouth scored mainly on passes and long runs. True enough, the Dartmouth attack was checked most of the way against Harvard's in- experienced sophomores last Satur- day.
 Yale, confident of victory despite the Michigan debacle, had worked hard all week despite injuries which make at least two changes in the line necessary. Both teams enter the game bolstered by new offensive plays. Look for Yale to register an upset by touchdown margin.
 In the only other standout New England gridiron encounter, once- beaten Boston College faces Auburn in an intersectional game here. Coach Frank Leahy's moaning again has made the Eagles a short- ender in local betting against Au- burn, seeking its first win over an eastern college. Auburn has won only one game against a major op- ponent and figures to drop this one by two touchdowns.
 Easy One
 Holy Cross, once defeated in five major encounters, should win as 1t pleases against Providence College in a "breather" game for the Cru saders at Worcester. Coach Joe Sheeketski, looking ahead to Temple Carnegie Tech and Boston College has indicated he will use three , teams against Providence. Coach Pat Hanley's plucky Bostor University Terriers will give Man. haitian battle here but will dror their second game to the improving Jaspers.
 Brown should defeat an under. manned Tufts team at Providence R. l., after three straight defeats The Bears, rated an eastern dark horse, have been New England's big gest flop.
 Harvard, still hampered by in- !, juries to Captain Torbie Macdonald and others, journey to Princeton probably to drop its third straight at the Tigers expense.
