Probably some Of your readers
would like TO try that, too. Then
just the other day, had a hand
full of peas, some strings Of green
beans and one carrot. Not
enough TO do anything with sep
arately. but cooking them all to-
gether in salt water, was pleas
antly surprised TO find they re-
tanned their individual flavors,
and blended with dressing, the
cubed beans and wheeled carrots
topped with the round peas made
a nice looking and appetizing

IT'S A GREAT DAY

Sure. and "tonisht's great day
for the Irish" And every mothers
son with a Bit of Old Erin in his
veins has donned a bit OF green and
greeted his friends with top o

For many a year March Il has
been dedicated 10 Patrick, the
patron saint Of Ireland who lived
about 396 10 469. STANCE as it may
seem. -. Patrick, who was mora
Irish than the Irish themselves. was
really Of Roman ancestry. Though
facts on his life are few. he is be
leyed to have been born in Eng
land or Scotland His father is said
10 have been a man Of some stand
ing a deacon in the Roman garri-
son.
4 band Of predatory Irish raiding
St. Pat.ick's home when he was 10
carried him off into slavery IN
North Ireland. For six years he
led hald lie as a slave and finally
escaped to Gaul. There ne trained
himself as d monk and returned 70
ireland as a missionary. He found
the people in great spiritual ds:S'
ness, worshipping the sun, rivers
and wells and believing in tho
good people OF fairies and the
banshee who warned OF approaching
death.
His life in Ireland had taught him
the customs and habits of the
Celtic population. Thus. he was able
10 make great progress in his mis-
sionary work. Il has been said that
he found all Ireland heather and
left IL wholly Christian Schools
and monasteries arose throughout
the Emerald Isle. and m the fifth to
eighth centuries, Ireland was &C.
knowle6 ged as the center OF West
ern culture. To nearly every coun-
Try in Europe her monks went forth

schools.

il caused eye trouble such as night
blindness and infection Of the eye.
II Vitamin B was left out of the
diet it caused neuritis. II Nitamin
C was left out of the diet, it caused
scurvy and an absence of Vitamin
D resulted in ricketts,.
Research workers continued TO
find vitamins such as Nitamins f,
X. and P, substances which they
named pyrodoxine, biotin, panto-
thenic acid and if one or the other
was removed from the diet of an
experimental animal. certain eff
fects in the way of i'll health APP
peared in the animal.
Nobody knew just why these eff
fects occurred. They didn't occur
because the vitamins supplied an
actual chemical to the tissues af-
fected. For instance, Vitamin B.
if removed from the diet, causes
neuritis, but the chemical struc-
ture of Vitamin B is nothing like
the chemical structure of nerve.
Therefore it is not because the
nerve lacks an essential chemical
to produce growth that Vitamin b
deficiency causes nerve trouble.
Act as Catalysts
We are beginning to find out
that the vitamins probably act as
catalysts. A catalyst effects
chemical reaction IN definite way
but it doesn't enter into the reac-
ton. For instance, potassium
placed in a test tube with oxygen
and hydrogen will accelerate the
combination Of the oxygen and n.y.
drogen but the potassium will not
be changed itself.
Vitamin B acts in this way. II
apparently speeds up all the ex-
changes Of food in the body, allows
the body to burn it more quickly,
in fact speeds up all the life proc
esses.
It has been found that climate
and temperature affect the use OF
Vitamin B. In cool climates Vita
min B remains in the body longer
and keeps heat generation going.
In tropical climates it is elimi-
mated rapidly and the food remains
inert in the body and it turns into
fat rather than energy SO that in
hot climates the natives are more
likely TO be sleepy and more likely
to be obese.
Incidentally, ! am glad to see
that a good word is being said for

my old friend, meat. For years

Nowadays they say that meat is
the best source we have for Vita
min B and we all need some at
least once or twice a week.
Vitamin B is not single sub
stance. There are about eleven
subdivisions OF Vitamin B, all
more or less related, but all per-
forming more or less different
functions.
incidentally, il is possible TO get
too much Vitamin B; at least it is
possible to get too much thiamin
chloride, which is Vitamin b., so it
won't do simply to stuff yourself
on Vitamin B.

 Some Speculation
 There was some speculation that urgent matters have developed in the Pacific war theater which must be fitted into the global strategy the leaders have been planning. Among them would be the occupa- ton by Japan of two of the Aleutian islands of Alaska. Both American and Canadian airmen have been blasting at the occupying forces, but there has been no announcements of developments in that area since Sunday when Japanese landings on the second island were announced.
