re~actionaries who use this cry as the
opening wedge wherever they seek
to destroy progressive organizations.
In our case, it is designed to hamper
our efforts in behalf of the teachers
and the children.
Toward the maintenance, preser-
walton, and extension of our demo-
cratic system we will continue to
devote our energy, efforts, and re-
sources. Our day to day efforts in
the interests Of progressive educa-
ton, better schools, and smaller
classes contribute a most important
element to the perpetuation of the
democratic American ideal. AS Dis
raeli said, "The youth of a nation
are the trustees of ~posterity." Ac-
tivities such as ours ensure for the
children under our direction an
education making for a citizenry and
nation which, in the very recent
words of the President of the United
States, is characterized by "a COM
mon ideal of democratic government,
a rich diversity of resources and a
people functioning together in mu-
tual respect and peace"
Thus we organize to protect and
extend our immediate economic and
professional detectives. AT the same
time we understand the relation of
these to the fulfillment of our obi
cations as Americans to American
democracy. Today we face a race
between true Americanism and the
forces of fascism and dictatorship.
If the ideals which we sponsor are
to succeed, there is much work to
be done in a desperately short time.
We most urgently and earnestly ask
every Union member to make the
building of the Union his or her
leading activity outside Of the class
room and we invite every progress
sively minded teacher to join our
ranks Immediately. DALE ZYS-
MAN, in Chicago Union Teacher.

a textbook is quite interesting, but,
to fight this same thing night and
day for two months is more i'm
pressive. This we did in the Fall of
1928 in saving a million-dollar
bridge on the Copper river railroad.
To see the river pile up thousands
of tons of gravel and building new
land in the middle of the river while
all at once the roadbed would sink
from under your feet, was studying
geology first hand but not so funny.
/ remember one night two of us
would be standing in one spot while
dumping IA carloads of quarried rock
before they showed on the surface.
At other times when the river was
gaining on US, we were obliged to
disconnect the rails and let a section
of the track sink into the river.
Summary
In our excursions into Yellow
stone Park, we get a faint conception
of what the earth looked like in pre-
cambrian time hundred million years
ago by closing our eyes to compare
lively recent geological, typigraphi-
cal and dry land vegetation such as:
mountains and valleys, the Grand
Canyon of the Yellowstone river
with all the timber and vegetation
growing on the land as all these are
of millions of years later develop
ments.
Moving on a good many million
years we might take a glimpse of
an ice-age on a small scale by taking
a trip to Glacier Park, the ice-bowl
of Greenland or better still to the
Antarctic region to see a replica OF
what the ice-age was like at different
times in both the North and South
Hemisphere. To see an ice-age
slowly receding, we may inspect the
ice-bowl of Greenland or the barrier
ice in Ross Sea of the Antarctic, both
Of which are slowly receding. From
there we go to Alaska to see a coun-
try just out of the ice-age with still
plenty of ice under the surface; a
further trip to Scandinavia will show
a country out of the ice-age a few
thousand years which can also be
said of the northern part of the
United States. Thus it can be seen
that an ice-age has been perambu-
lating around both the North and
South Hemisphere at different recent
geological times in the earth's
history.

RIGHT FOOD FOR
GOOD HEALTH
Your Health and Vitality De-
pends on Proper Food
and Right Amount
BY CHARLOTTE SPENCER

Three meals a day is still the
major business of most wives and
mothers How they conduct this
business is of primary Importance
in determining the present and fu-
ture health of their families.
Making menu pattern is often
the easiest way for busy house
wives to make sure that three
meals are going to provide each
member of the family with the
food essentials which he needs.
Each family can work out its own
pattern to suit individual needs.
Here is suggestion for such a
pattern menu: Breakfast: cereal
with milk, fruit, toast, milk to
drink for children, and coffee for
adults; Lunch: fruit or vegetable,
milk or two foods made with milk,
a serving of either eggs, cheese, or
meat, and dessert; Dinner: meat or
fish, one cooked vegetable, one raw
vegetable, potatoes, milk to drink,
and dessert.
Other satisfactory patterns may
be worked out. A definite plan
for meals make it easier to see
that the right amounts of the pro-
tective foods are included every
day.
Each adult should have one pint
of milk, either to drink or in foods
made with milk. If each child
drinks one glass of milk at each
meal, he should also get some
foods made with milk to get one
quart each day.
Milk, plenty of fruits and veg
etables, dark cereal or dark bread
at least once day, an egg a day
per person as such or in cooking,
meat or fish-these are the foun-
dations upon which to build your
daily meal pattern.
