FOOD FOR THOUGHT
BY ELEANOR NJ. WILKINSON
NuiritiOnist for the State BOard Of Health
"POTATO PETE"

Have you heard of Potato Pete
that chubby yet sprightly little
old man on British posters who
tells you all about how good he is
to eat? Recently Fortune carried
an article on Britain Eats TIC
Fight" and described Potato Pete's
Fair" held in London last Christ
mas time. The fair ran for 13 days
and clocked in some 100000 visit
Ors. While mothers were taught
1913 ways of preparing potatoes for
their children the youngsters them
selves had wonderful time. "POta-
to Pete" Clara Carrot" and other
members of the vegetable kingdom
beamed down from the walls !;
there was a slippery slide through
which all children entered the fair !:
nursery rhymes composed for the
occasion were handed out in leaf
lets. Since Britain's imports of
grain are necessarily high and
shipping space is so limited. war
time makes the use of homegrown
grain alternates desirable. To meet
this need Potato Pete's Fair follow
ed the theme Use Potatoes In
stead of Bread"
In America We now face a situa-
tony exactly opposite to that of
Britain in these respects. We have
an abundance of grain but until the
next crop. our white potato supply
is extremely limited. Even the
armed forces have had difficulty in
Keeping potatoes on the menu. With
no potatoes on the table civilians
must eat with a more vigilant eye
cast on the food value of their
meals. In themselves. potatoes are
not particularly outstanding in pro-
tective values. However, usi ng

families do, white potatoes are

LAMPS IN THE DARKNESS b,
Roy L. Tawes. Abingdon-C Cokesbur,
Press. Nashville. 81. With a livl
coal from OFF the altar the author
has lighted this volume of ten ser
mons. Substance that is food, ant
a style which is unique in lending
/ and blending beauty and Interest
flow through every sermon. BishoT
Hughes describes this preachers
form with two words simplicity
and force" A generation ago able
sermons were called powerful, and
an outstanding pulpiteer was a big
gun. This preachers artillery is
less ponderous. Though the shells
are less in diameter. they are fired
more rapidly and with greater ac-
curacy. He uses short sentences
of excellent diction, and the con-
ventional outline is out.
These sermons deal with the car
dinals of our religion. Three of
them deal with the Persons of the
Trinity. Three others deal with the
Bible, Church and Heaven. The re-
manning titles deal with the worth
of man and life, the triumph of
love and "the death of death. :"
There is skillful use and movement
of the illustration. There are apt
and abundant quotations. There is
just enough verse to make the read
er long for more. This sermon
maker frequently quickens atten-
ton and drives home his meaning
with epigrammatic sentences.
Lamps in the Darkness" meets

it is interesting. 1t will
be valuable to him who moketh
sermons. and to him who readeth.
1t will enlighten a pastors study,
and grace the family table. There
is comfort. There is exhortation. 1t
has treasured truths for the mind,
and refreshing streams for the
faint. The reader will see life's
misty purposes clearer. and behold
the gates of heaven ajar.
