WhyGrow
Old?
By Josephine Lowman

The little rabbit may get his pink
ears from carrots but you are likely
to need some rare beef to make your
cheeks bloom. OF course, there are
still individuals and schools of
thought who make loud hurrahs
and say that the vegetarian has it
all over his meat-eating brother. I
like a little grass myself but the
opinion of this column, based on
both personal experience and the
weight of medical opinion, is that
the average person requires some
meat in his or her diet for best
nourishment
In theory it is possible to obtain
all of the essential food elements
from vegetable diet, however this
does not work out so we'll in prac-
tice. In the first place, planning
such meals calls for an extensive
knowledge of nutrition which the
average person does not possess
Besides this, one would have to eat
enormous and frequent vegetable
plates.
Of course, most so-called vege-
tarians do eat animal proteins such
as eggs, cheese, and milk. Meat is
an important source of vitamins and
minerals, and is a valuable form of
protein. Also it is important to us
because of its amino acids.
Vegetables and fruits (particu-
larly of the green and yellow kindD
are essential to our well being, but
I believe that little meat is in
dicated. I personally have seen
several persons experiment care
fully with the vegetarian idea only
to find themselves slightly anemic
at the end of two years. I myself
was one of the guinea pigs.
Some extremely fine examples OF
physical development among GER
tain peoples in India are nourished
by whole grain flour, butter, raw
carrots and cabbage, small amounts
of meat and large amounts OF milk.
We might we'll take this as an out
line and then add a few eggs and
branch out some on the vegetables
and fruits.

arrived In this Office work ceased
while members of the staff found
out whether they're the siren, the
simple and sweet type or the lam
gorous, South American senorita
personality.
And, speaking of sirens (the nom
afraid variety, one of our prac-
tical and patriotic perfumers has
come forth with a suggestion that
you enchant your soldier beau on
leave with a fragrance said to be
practically irresistible. This per-
fume is we'll established as sophis-
tlcated, heady aroma that's perfect
With your important" afternoon
dresses, your draped dinner gowns
or luxurious fur jackets. But the
originators like it particularly with
black clothes to complete "that
liquid anthracite look that has
kindled so many compliments from
the fashion press and kindles
even more admiration from male
escorts" That's what they say
s,help us! At any rate, we do know
that it's fascinating fragrance, not
easily forgotten. So be as practical
and conservative as you please while
you're cutting sandwiches in a can
teen. doing AFRAID warden duty or
wedding your victory garden. But
When the beau is on furlough dress
up and be your most feminine. The
/ perfume will be a great helm.
Jumping from sophistication to
just plain whimsy, 1t comes time
now to tell you about a new beauty
gadget that has won the hearts OF
college and career girls alike. It's
a bath powder puff that looks like
nothing so much as an diversified
lollipop, and even comes in a paper
candy sack to complete the illusion,
The puff Is huge and round, made of
terry cloth in six color combinations
and Is attached to the end of a long
wooden stick. Makes it wonderfully
convenient to use and, what's more
you'll be charmed with the fragrant
powder contained in it. As a fare
we'll present for that coed, it's per-
feet, but If you don't know any COL
lege-bound lassies, don't let that
stop you. You'll adore 1t for you,
own bathroom beauty shelf.
Ever try perfume in cream form?
A flock of girls we know swear by
it, because they maintain that it is
longer lasting, by far, than LIQUID
types. Be that as 1t may, a new
one has been introduced with the
idea that the vanishing type cream
IN it is a substitute for the precious
and much-needed alcohol in per-
tume. Besides its obvious patriotic
features, you'll like this one because
you just rub dot of cream-rer-
fume on the skin, the cream van
ishes and the fragrance fingers for
hours. What's more, it's an eco
nomical form of perfume since
spilling and evaporation have no
place IN its existence. It should be
on local counters now; If not. YOU
can look for it within the next few
days.
p. Sour old friend and that
very capable beauty consultant,
Nine. Colbo, was in town last week.
She tells us that we need not fear
for our beauty aids and cosmetics,
but that 1t is important to buy them
in large sizes In order to preserve
precious containers. With this idea
in mind, some Of the firms are offer
ing specials" on the bigger pack
ages just to get us used to the idea.
A good idea 1t is, too.

Gleanings From the Office Mail;
Statistics and Other Items
By Betsy CasweH
Women's News Editor

Releases from dozens of concerns,
bureaus, departments, offices-of-
this-and-that, various assorted serv-
ices hutter into the baskets on the
desk like snowf1akes in a March
blizzard. Sometimes keeping up
with them as they arrive becomes
out of the question ,and a general
clean-up-briefly-is in order. Here's
the latest crop:
Farm woodland owners who have
commercial size dogwood trees in
their timber stands are being asked
to help out the war effort. It
seems that dogwood makes the best
shuttle blocks used in making tex
tiles. War requirements have in
creased the demand for textiles, and
the consequent need for shuttles to
such point that immediate action
by the farmers is necessary to in
sure an adequate supply. Dogwood
bolts four inches in diameter and
up are acceptable. Prices for dog
wood bolts have advanced rapidly,
and in some instances are twice

What Instead of Meat?
Study the Values of Other Foods
To Determine Best Substitutes

dren and adults need 1t to main
tain their body tissues.
However, meat has other food
values besides its protein. For IN
stance, meat Is source of niacin,
a member of the vitamin B family.
Niacin helps your nerves and your
digestion, makes for a healthy skin
and also does a lot to ward off pei
lagra. Another name for niacin is
NICOTINE acid (not the same as nico-
tine). Meat normally supplies over
half OF the total niacin you get in
your food.
Thiamine, also known as vitamin
Bl; rlbof1avin, still another v vita
min, and iron are three more food
values that you get from meat.
However, you do not depend on meat
for these values to the same extent
as for niacin.
The question for meatless menu
planning is how to get these food
values into the days eating. And
one general rule to follow is-plan
for variety. For instance, there Is
protein in food other than meats.
Although the most efficient protein
comes from animal sources, you are
not restricted to meats. Remember
when meat Is not available you can
get this efficient protein from eggs,
milk and cheese, also from poultry,
fish and shellfish.
Vegetables, such as peas and
beans, and particularly soybeans,
give you protein, too. However, re-
member that it takes more of the
vegetable group, and in good variety,
to equal any given amount of animal
protein. Other sources of protein
are nuts, peanuts and grains-espe-
cially whole grains.
There Is niacin In grain products
potatoes and green vegetables, and
fruits as we'll as in meat. In the
grain products group, whole wheat
bread or cereals give you q particu-
larly large amount of niacin. En-
riched white bread and -four enter
the picture, too, in giving you more
niacin.
1t is not difficult to get thiamine
In your days meals, even on days
when you don't eat any meat, if you
eat plenty OF whole-grain foods
Aside from meat and grains, yol
also get thiamine from potatoes, thu
dry legumes. eggs and leafy greer
vegetables. Also from many fruits

other than meat are milk products
eggs and grain products-especiall,

fruits, too.
You also obtain iron In man,

Authority Gives
Advice on Meals
For Children
Properly Cooked
Vegetables Sure
To Appeal
Rv AneeI0 P0fri

If water for cooking could be
rationed things would be about per-
feet in the kitchen. Then the chill
dren's vegetables would not be
drowned and come out of the pot
miserable corpses against which
children put up stone-wal resis-
tance. Why will people drown the
poor things?
I believe that vegetables, rightly
cooked, are the mainstay of the
children. They are filled with preci-
. out food elements that would
nourish the children wonderfully
II they could get them. Many
mothers buy all the good vegetables
and then destroy their value by
overlooking them in too much
water.
Vegetables do not need to be
covered with water and boiled
like mad. They want gentle treat
ment. Wash them we'll; leave their
skins on If that is possible; put only
enough water to keep them from
burning in the pot; cover them; set
them on a moderate fire; save the
Juices in the pot for soup; butter
the vegetables and serve them to the
hungry children. If they are lively
when they come to the table, the
children will eat them manfully and
ask for more.
like heavy, thick pots for cooking
vegetables. Thin, light pots let them
burn too easily when we give them
only a little water. The new pots
that cook food under steam pressure
are the best of all in my experience.
They are very expensive, so most of
us cannot have them, but there are
good steam cookers within reach Of
almost everybody.
The pressure cookers, steamers
and their like, use less fuel, do the
Job in less time-imagine peas
cooked In two minutes-and we'll
cooked. These pots are of heavy
steel and 1t would be hard work to
burn food in them. The vegetables
come out in good color, all their
flavor, all their vital elements
within them. ready to nourish chill
dren perfectly.
If we cannot have the pressure
pots and steam cookers, we surely
have heavy thick pots that do well
for slow cooking. And we can use
little water and watch the things
cook. We can all do that for the
sake of the youngsters who need
every precious Wtamin their good
vegetables hold.
There Is no country in all the
world that has such richness Of
fruit and vegetables, and it Is sac
to think that so much Of 1t i.
wasted In the cooking. We surely
can do better.
Feed the children with raw veg.
etables now and then. Young car
rots washed and cut in dainty sticks
young scallions, celery stalks
radishes, cabbage. lettuce, yer!
young peas, are delicious eaten raw
and there can be no question abou
their losing their vitamins. Unless
of course, they are allowed to Ii,
about and shrivel. But that woult
be unthinkable.
This Is the time to reform tn,
cooking Of vegetables if 1t has no
been spruced up for the duration
long ago. Get heavy steel pot, +;
steamer, a pressure pot, anything
but thin, tin one, and make ,
ritual Of cooking those vegetable
so they hold their food values. I
these are drowned out just as wei
give the youngsters bundle of ha

when you get them just right.

Many people think first of protein
when they think of meat. It's true
that meat is an excellent source of
protein. In fact, half of the amount
of protein we need is normally
gained from meat and other animal
sources, such as poultry, fish, eggs
and milk products.
