Calcium Is the backbone Of en-
army or q nation. That's why an
equal distribution of milk and milk
products assumes wartime import
ance. Milk Is the best source Of
available calcium.
You can get all the calcium your
body needs every day from two
glasses Of milk. You can get 1t from
other foods, too, but you must eat
like an OK. For example, to equal
the calcium in two glasses Of milk
you would have to eat 10 2-3 pounds
Of meat (try and get It'd.
Today, with more money to
spend, and more work to do, Amer
leans are drinking more rnilk-an
increase that continues at the rate
Of about one per cent month. But
production, for reasons Of dairy
feed, manpower and price relation
ships, is not increasing.
The Food Distribution Admins
tration says that increased civilian
consumption is the real joker in the
present crisis. We are drinking at
least 20 per cent more than we
drank year ago, and last year we
set a new record. That's why we
have the new milk order. It sets
June, le43, deliveries as a maximum
quota. However, the trouble Is
that as the seasonal period Of low
production increases, it's going to
be difficult for some congested areas
to get even that much milk. A
board composed of local leaders
then will be set up to see that chill
dren, invalids, and pregnant and
nursing women will get priority on
the supply.
The Bureau Of Human Nutrition
and Home Economics says children
between 8 and IL should have a
minimum Of Z quarts Of milk q
week; also pregnant women. Nurs-
ing mothers need 10 and half
quarts.
It's important to our war effort
that men and women in war plants
get their milk, too. The Nutrition
and Conservation Branch Of the
FDA in its program for in-plant
feeding, says each worker should
get at least a pint day. That goes

My mother wants me to make a

Ans: Your mother knows that
you are not happy because you took
on a bigger job than you realized.
She doesn't want you to have a
nervous breakdown or to overtax
your health in any way. A few
weeks rest will not interfere, one
way or another, with your studies.

he doesn't want my people at his

please tell me what to do?
Ans: Pleasing your husband is
your first obligation. You have the
power to make your husband see
the good in your people or to turn
him against them. Be more diplO-
matte in arranging these get-tO-
gethers with your people. Try to
have them around only when it is
convenient with him. Let your peo-

Ans: You're Just making your

thoughts. The minister was friend,
true, but they were never close
