The Ely miner., 1943-05-13
By AL JEDLICKA

Time was not so very long ago
when all of this nutritive and
vitamin talk sounded kind of
silly.
That was the time when al
most everybody thought that
vitamins were something that
came in capsules or pills; when
women figured that they knew
all of the tricks of the culinary
trade, and when we all liked
food for it's taste and gave little
consideration to its minerals,
proteins, carbohydrates, etc.
Plates were heaped with po-
tatoes and meat; if there were
any kids around, few vegetables
were served because they didn't
like them; and then more pota-
toes and more meat, and finally
a great big slug of pie, was put
down to top off a coed meal.
If the Little Woman came home
from some cooking school all
worked up about the science of food
and it's preparation, the head man
dampened her enthusiasm by gently
but firmly advising her that all that
vitamin and mineral stuff was the
bunk, and meat and potatoes were
good enough to keep the world going.
In fact, the head man argued in
vincibly, hadn't the world been liv-
ing on potatoes and meat, etc., since
mans memory runneth, and hadn't
she, as well as he, been raised on
the old standbys-and, what was
wrong with them? Nothing! of
course.
But that was before December z,
1941. A lot of things have happened
since then and one of them is Mr..
and Mrs. Americas attitude toward
the vitamin and its encourage. Meat
and other rationing have thrown us
on the defensive and it is now
question of stretching foods, finding
substitutes and all of the time seek
ing to maintain nutritive values.
The upshot of the whole thing is
that we might emerge from the war
with a more intelligent knowledge of
food, of the purpose of its varieties,
and consequently be in position to
guide our healthy growth by exact
standards.
If we were to be awfully enthu-
siastic about the situation, we might
say that scientific nutrition may be
the one big development following
the war, just like the automobile
came into its own in 1919. But lot
of people who will find it hard to
reform their old eating habits prob
ably would argue to the death that
we were wrong, because the airplane
will be the thing with peace.
Must Find Proteins.
Since meat rationing came along,
food experts have been pointing out
the necessity of seeking other
sources of protein. In so doing, they
have consoled us no end by their
reminder that, after all, it's not the

NO SOLUTION

Kathleen Norris again repeats
her statement, made many times
before in this column, that di.
uorce is neither the right nor the
lasting solution Of marital diff
cuLtieS. And she points to the
tragic example of the frequently
married and never happy people
rOho are always seeking the per-
feet mate, the taiIor-made mar
riage. You must york for a hap
Py marriage, just as you must
t0ork for a strong financial posi-
tion, or an enuiabIe social posi-
tion, or good grades in school.
And, falling short of perfection
or unqualified success, you must
remember that diuorce is still no
solution.

An extra hours sleep in ''the near
side'' of the evening was recon-
mended as a war thrift measure by
the National Thrift committee. With
small wage earners facing the neces-
sity of buying more and more war
bonds, the National Thrift commit
tee issues the warning that drastic
economies en the home front are
inescapable. Health-giving sleep will
automatically curtail many extrava-
gances, in the opinion of the COM
mittee.

Spring cleaning of budgets is rec
commended by the committee as an
aid to the purchase of more bonds
by every family. Recognizing that
most budgets are as full of old hab-
its at this time of year as closets
are cluttered with clothes, the COM
mittee suggests a family conference
upon items to be discarded for SIM
plified living, with consequent saw
ing. Out-moded budgets, the COM
mittee says, are unpatriotic in war
time, and the fact that certain things

have always been in them, is no es.i-

lily conclave over expenditures of the
first quarter of the year is sure to
result in discovery of ways to save
money.

budget" says the committee, els

margin.
In normal operation, steel fur
mace is out of actual production
about 10 per cent of the time to al
low for necessary relinings and
small repairs. Allowance is made
for these occurrences when furnace
capacity is rated.
During only 0.3 per cent of the
year were the furnaces shut down
for abnormal or emergency reasons
The Ely miner., 1943-05-13

such as shortages of scrap in the
early part of the year, extraordinary
repair jobs after breakdowns, labor
disputes, absenteeism and floods.
Although the furnaces were in op-
Grafton 99.7 per cent of the time, the
total tonnage of steel produced dur
ing the year represented only 96.8
per cent of the industry's rated
capacity-largely because wartime
emergency conditions have length
ened the average time required to
make heat of steel.

twenty-five hour days, eight-day

Jap Athletes Progressed

Japan's biennial track and field
competition with China and the Phil
ippines started in 1913. BY 1923 the
Japs had become fairly adept, scor-
ing 38 points in track and swimming
in the Olympic Games at Amster-
dam and producing two individual
event winners. Through the 1905
the Nipponese pointed their athletes

pens over and over again with those
men and women who are rich
enough and optimistic enough, and
let it be added, dumb enough, to
marry four and five and six times,
imagining that the will-o'- -the-wisp
connubial bliss is somewhere, wait
ing to be found ready-made.
When a man and woman are bal
anced, normal folk, aware that life
has thousand interests and delights
other than that of sex; when they
rejoice in the companionship that
marriage brings, the mutual digni-
ties and cares, the pleasures of hos
pltallty and home making, the privi-
leges of parenthood, then in the
place of that first awed ecstasy of
possession, that first ignorant, eager
seizure upon life, comes something
far rarer and finer; true married
love, true appreciation of what is
the great miracle of human hearts in
this world.
Otherwise the first chill wind of
reality destroys their marriage and
leaves them forlorn indeed. When
fattery and passion, novelty and ex-
citement have had their day, GER
tain blanlness descends upon the
lovers, they don't know what's hap
pened to them.
Patience, Humility Help.
Whereas, if they had character, il
they had had good training, good
homes, good example behind them,
they would start fresh. They would
replace excitement and passion and
novelty and flattery with patience,
humility, sympathy, courage. The
man would analyze his own nature,
asking himself seriously what the
qualifications of a good husband
should be; the woman should repeat
to herself the wife's litany.
THAT may never do anything to
make him love me less. That his
home may always be the place he
most wants to come. That he may
trust me to spend our money wisely,
keeping everything in proportion.
That the years may find us growing
only closer and closer together, de-
pending more and more upon each
other. Amen!"
But how many young men and
women take that attitude today? How
many say: ST was wrong. I'm sor-
ry l was rude to your old friend.

sorry I forgot to telephone your

If your marriage has come to a
bad time, give that man of yours an
other chance. Because even if you
leave him, and break up your home,
you'll have to live with somebody.
If it's a new mate, in five years you

happiness goes, between him and

Spruce Trees and War Effort

Spruce trees in Great Britain have
aided in the war effort in remark
able way. Before the war Britain
imported all its seed for common
spruce from central Europe, but
the supply was cut off with serious
loss to the forestry department. But
now the spruce are astonishingly
rich in cones, even the small trees
bearing them. This is true all over
the country, it is reported in Lon
don, and the cone harvest is enough
to plant many thousands of acres.
