Proper Food Extends Life
 WeII-SeIected
 Diet Advocated

Proper diet is an important fac- tor in an increasing proportion or our population reaching advanced ages, according to the Connecticut State Department of Health. In the weekly department broadcast over station WTIC, Miss Elizabeth C.. Nickerson, Director, Bureau of Pub lie Health Instruction and Nutri- ton pointed out that elderly per sons are likely to be active and keen, if their daily diet of well-selected foods is not tempered with.
 "Too many older people are afraid to eat," continued Miss Nickerson, "and commissions from their diets are often the predisposing causes of poor health. Barring those with cer- tain diseases, food for elderly per- sons should be no different than for the rest of the family, though the character of the food eaten would depend upon the condition Of the teeth and the state of the digestion. The amount of food eat- en depends largely upon how active each individual is. The armchair en- thusiasts would naturally require less than the more active persons.
 Miss Nickerson stated that as with people of other ages, there must be good food sources of pro- tein, iron, calcium and all the vita mins in the daily diet of the elderly. She recommended that older per. sons start the day with a good breakfast consisting of citrus fruit, whole grain cereal and tea or cof- fee. Dinner in the middle of the day was preferred to that at night. Here high quality protein such as is found in bacon and eggs, meat and fish, is particularly important. As a com pliment to these, there should be potato, some colored vegetable ol salad to provide the valuable min erals and vitamins. Only light meal of soup or salad, milk, and a simple sweet was recommended fol the final meal of the day.

When the insects quaint bubble nests were

than the spittle of tree frogs. When 1t was dis

inhabitants inside these, too were in some way

Although these unfounded beliefs no longer
exist, certain credulous individuals still imagine
that horseflics are hatched from the frothy frog
hopper nests.
The title of hopper is no boner, however for
although the little bubble-nest dweller with the
philosophical eye never so much as hoofed a
hornpipe in his life, the grown-ups of his clan
are noted for their great lcaping ability.
