the least possible waste Of time,

To begin with, wherever
there's a benefit. there you'll find
the stars giving their all for

No more generous-h art d

So 60 to the benefits and kill

Fish On Monday Is Advocated

gro make up for the excesseS of the weekend, it is best to have a lean fish diet on Monday" is the sage advice of Donu Edmond, we'll considered beauty analyst who for years was personal beautician to- the late Queen Marie of Rumania.
 We tend to overeat while we are, enjoying our, little vacation at the end of each week. MT. Edmond reported to the Fishery council. "A little diet attention on Monday will go long way in keeping one healthy, which is a requisite of beauty. Fish having such great vitamin and mineral merits while being light food, it appears per feet for Mondays meal. In fact, fish and shellfish several times a week would go a long way in keep ing one active and attractive"
 Fish are particularly rich in VitaminS A and D, D being the one made so famous by cod-liver oil. In addition to being in fish liver oil, Vitamin D is found generally in the body oils of most fish. In min- erals, the iodine content of marine foods is particularly outstanding. Phosphorus, copper, magnesium and calcium are other minerals present.
 Fish has been endorsed for ath- letes in training and, in way, keeping beautiful requires the at tention of athletic training. It is a light food and yet has so many of the food requirements we need for

colds. Of course after working hours it's nice to have the neces- sary vitality and energy to have fun-and these depend to 6 large extent on good nutrition. There are certain daily food requirements which should be observed to main- tain god health. The quota of at least two glasses of milk daily and green and yellow vegetables, fruit and whole wheat bread in addition to other foods will protect one against the deficiencies of the aver age American diet.
 Plan to start the day right with hot breakfast every morning. This should include whole grain cereal with milk, fruit or fruit juice, and if possible, eggs. For that midday lunch, remember that even if you eat at lunch counter you can still buy an adequate meal if you will choose wisely. You may order nourishing soup-es especially on these cold winter dayS-a salad or salad sandwich, and tall glass of milk. Now you can work eficiently during those long afternoon hours before the evening meal. And here, during the last meal of the day, you will have the opportunity to include the necessary meat or meat substitute, vegetables and potato-arld, of course, milk. Whether you eat in your apartment or in restaurant, try to achieve feeling of restful- nes and quiet for this last meal of the day.

Pepped-Up Cream Meats

Creamed leftover meat, fish or chicken when served in patty shells, in a caSserolef1 or on biscuits, takes on new appetite appeal if the fine flavorS of the basic foods are ac-, cented with an unusual combina- ton of seasonings.
 When creaming ham, beef or pork small amount of prepared horse radisfl. or mustard will give zest to the rather bland food combination. A bit of lemon juice added to creamed fish, crabmeat, tun fish. chicken or other Seafood will give it that tart-buttery flavor so delici- sous with these foods.
 Savory creamed leftover meat and vegetable combinations are party-fare when served in patty shells, on fancy-cu butter biscuits or in the center of stuffed baked potatoes.
 Tasty Creamed Chicken and Mushrooms
 tablespoons butter
 IA cup finely chopped celery
 tablespoons flour
 cups milk
 3 tablespoons lemon juice
 1 teaspoon salt
 1-2 cups diced chicken
 l cup sliced mushrooms
 Melt butter in top of double boil CT, add celery and Saute over di- rect heat until transparent, do not. brown. Add flour and blend well. Add milk and cook over hot water until sauce is thickened and well cooked. Season with salt and add lemon juice slowly. Saute mush- rooms in a small amount of butter until tender. Add diced chicken and sauteed mushrooms to the seauce and heat thoroughly. Serve in patty shells or on butter bis- cults. Serves 6.
 The recipe for creamed chicken and mushrooms lends itself to a va- riety of variations. Substitute a teaspoon of prepared mustard and dash of curry powder for the lemon juice when leftover lamb is used. Creamed ham is made into savory dish when teaspoon or more of horseradish is substituted for the lemon juice.
