PHYSIOLOGY or APPETITE


 Relish, desire or craving for food is c normal and rather pleasant sensation or feeling difficult to an. alyze but vaguely referred to the stomach. It involves more or less conscious anticipation of the taste or flavor of the food one expects to enjoy presently as . matter Of course. If there is serious doubt of obtaining food then the agreeable sensation of good appetite" soon changes Into an uneasy state, Q feel- ing of anxiety, and finally actual distress or pain in the region of the stomach--hunger bangs,
 The mental factor Is important. For example, individuals who un- dergo voluntary lasts do not suffer the distress of hunger so soon as do individuals who are deprived of food by circumstances beyond their control. Mental influence has much to do with good appetite" too. Food attractively served in pleas mt surroundings is more appetiz- ing and more digestlble than food served in a different environment, Cheerful atmosphere and emotions not only spoil appetite but retard or arrest digestion or even reverse paristalsis and make the sensitive victim sick.
 One of the common symptoms or manifestations of beriberi (poly. neuritis), which is due to prolonged ehortaue of Vitafnin R comnlNX particularly thiamin tBD in the diet, Is loss of appetite. But for months before the appetite fails the individual developing beriberi suffers loss of strength, fatigue and sensation of heaviness and stiffness in legs, inability to walk any distance, headache, insomnia, nervousness, dizziness, shortness of breath, etc. The loss Of appetite Is only incidental, but somehow phy- Sicians not abreast of the newer knowledge of nutrition have got. ten into the habit of aSsoclating loss of appetite with lack of vita min B. This Is regrettable error, so far as our American experience goes.

PATTERN S72 BROCK AND CAPE FOR A SMART TOT

She'll be the smartest little girl of the nursery set' in this dainty and bewitching style. Claire Tilden has designed Pattern 372 with an eye to usefulness, too for she sug- gests that you make both a party time and playtime version of the frock, and she includes a very- much-in-style cape. One of the most delightful features of the dress is that dainty yoke and bodice panel. The waistline points engag- ingly to the front gathering in the perky hared skirt-a this-season fashion note. Have the sleeves in cool, piquant flared caps or make them in neat puffs. The dress-up frock would be gay in a fiower- strewn voile, dimity or batiste, with the yoke, panel and sleeves outlined by ruffling. For the other more everyday style choose a sturdy gingham or chambray perhaps us- ing contrast for loke and panel, as suggested in the smaller sketch. A ribbon bow and button trim are gay "extras". The simple o-make cape is in trim panelled style and may match or contrast the dress. Keep the Sewing Guide close by to show you all the professional short- cuts.
 Pattern 372 is cut in children's sizes 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10. Size re- quires 1 3-4 yards 35 inch fabric and 1 IA yards ruffling.

 So 1t is fairly obvious that the average person who gives no par. tlcular thought to nutrition suffers from Q shortage of vitamin B. At the same timhe 1t is evident that there is no lack of appetite on the part of the average person with such vitamin B deficiency-oN the contrary the average person with vitamin B deficiency Is likely to be plagued with excessive appetite or craving for carbohydrate, and his or her overindulgence in such food causes the obesity, overweight and, in some cases, the ultimate dia- betes which so many vltainin B deficient individuals develop.

Q MODERN MENUS
BY MRS. GAYNOR MADDOX
 NEA Service Staff Writer

The American home diet has a two-ocean defense. Fish is a high- grade source of protein, and the sea is full lof many kinds. Now, to maintain high nutrition in the face of rising taxes and food costs, American women should serve more fish in their menus.
 PUBLIC MUST HELP
 William Fellows Morgan, Jr., com- missioner of markets in New York City, reminds us that during World War I, we had "Meatless Tuesdays" as defense measure. MT. Morgan now Is urging citizens to cooperate with him in making Tuesdays Bar gain Fish Day." thereby adding an extra day in the week when this excellent food can be purchased at budget prices.
 T have been able to get the prom ise of retailers of fish, including chain stores, to turn every Tuesday into Bargain Fish Day if the public will cooperate by using some of the many varieties of fresh fish in the market on that day." he said. If the public will begin now to add an extra fish day to their menus, the price of fish can be reduced 10 amazing lows and families will be assured of an ample supply of nec- essary protein without a strain on their budgets"
 CAN BE NATIONAL
 What the housewives of New York can do, with the help of their pro- gressive market commissioner, can be done all over the country. The local commissioner should announce through the local press and radio on Tuesday morning the price of fish in the wholesale markets. The housewives can then be guided when

Girls who have already adopted the vogue for shorter bobs are using "coiffure camoufiage" = pieces of false hair - with which to dress up their short locks for evening. With rolls to pin across the back, pomp- adours = with or without bangs for the front, as well as old favor ties, like halo braids, easily available It's simple enough to change a shorter, cooler daytime hair-do into e formal, elegant coiffure for even- ing.

In the collection are schoolgirl braids to tie behind the ears and fasten with ribbons-niee with play suits and slacls. And some looped braids --sMexican style -- to wear with 6 spanish-type evening dress or 6 playsuit in gay, Mexican col- ors.
 If you are going to order 6 piece of false hair to match your own, be sure that your own Is in shiny, heal- thy condition before the matching job is done. Then keep 1t that way. This means a good brushing at least four nights Q week, now and then an oil treatment or some kind of special treatment to cure specific defects and c diet which includes more fresh vegetables, green salads and fresh fruit than starchy foods and rich pastries.

TO SUIT EVERY
 TIME AND PLACE

Newest and about the prettiest of the "coiffure camoufiage" pieces of hair is the modified pompadour roll with waved bangs. For evening, Q short daytime coiffure may be brushed upward from the face at sides; back ends cornbed upward into a neat, horizontal roll; the pompadour with bangs pinned across the front.
 A short coiffure that suits you perfectly during daytime hours but which seems to lack glanlor when you are wearing dinner dress, may be changed by pinning at the back e roll with upturned ringlet or turn- ed-under page boy ends. In other words, it's simple to let false hair turn c short bob into @ long, glamor girl bob.
 A long, thick braid carefully made of good hair which matches exactly the color Of your own--is q handy item that can be used in all sorts of ways around the head, halo fashion; in e thick, low chig- non ct the nape of the neck; as Q bun atop the head - just behind a pompadour.
 For the girl who wants to be slightly exotic, coiffure experts recommend separate hair pieces in contrasting rather than matching shades. There are streaks of white hair to pin in dark locks. Or-pure- iy for fun and comment-red braids to wear around black hair, brown braids to go on blond hair, and so on. Helena Rubinstein, famous beauty authority, IS showing an in- teresting variety of these, as well as more practical, down-to-earth hair pieces.
