This week we wish ta cail your attention ta an eminent nutritionist who is doing an Important job for tIse province. That persan is Dr. E. W. McHesry, Department of Pub- lie HealtIs Nutritio9ý, University of Toronto. He is chairman of tIse Ontario Interdepartmental Nutri- tion Committee, whicb wifl be respossible for ca-ordination, flot only in the publication and distri- bution of nutrition material, but aiso in tIse planning of nutrition improvement pragrams. Thse point of emphasis in tIse recent Ontario Nutrition Bulletin is:' 'A satisfactory source of Vita- min C such as a glass of tomata juice, an orange or a Isaîf grape- fruit every day." And thse follow- ing is an excerpt from tIse Bulle- tin: Why Vitamin C Is needcd: To heip build 'bones and teeth (Vitamin D, calcium and phos- phorus are also need for tIse same purpose. To prevent scurvy, a disease un which there is a weakesisg of tIse walls of thse small.biood vessels. (One sigis of -scurvy is swollçn gums that bleed easily.' To be healthy, an adequate in- taice of vitamin C is seeded. Wbere vitamin C can be obtained: Vitamin C is fôund un citrus fruits, bernies, tamataes, vitamin- ized apple juice, and certain vege- tables, especially cabbage. Vitamîn C is easily destroyed' during cooking; a large portion of the vitamin C content of vegetables cas be iost in cooking. Ta ensure vitamin are obtamned it la advis- able ta use good sources which are served without cooking. How mnuch vitamin C Is needed: Children need every day, thse amount of vitamin C contained in any one of tIse following foads. eîght ounces tomato juice ose medium size orange (about twa incIses acrass) one-baîf grapefruit four ounces (one small glass) orange juice, fresh or canned four ounces vitaminîzed applè juice (containing added vitamin C) one large serving cabbagè salad Sufficient vitamis C cas. be obtained from a 'combination of readily available foods.

At average present prices tIse daily requirement for vitamis C cas be obtaised. For one cent by using raw spin- ach, turnip, cabbage or baked potatoes. For two-thrcc cents by using oranges or grapefruit or tbeir juices or tomata- juice or vitamin- ized apple juice.

Miss du Maurier has used con- ventiosal England-before and alter the First Warld War-as the scttisg for hem tale af the famous, fabulous Delancys. Mama, an actress and dancer, and Pappy, a singer, have gained for themnselves enviable reputa- tions in the worid of show-busi- ness. Their meat is the press no- tice of the critic, their drink the wild applause of tIse people they entertais. And it is upon this skimpy, character-starvi.ng lame that they have raised their off- spring, Maria, Niall, and Celia, who, like them, are talented and much sougbt after. Maria is an immediate success on tIse London stage and in ad- dition makes a brilliant marmiage with Sir Charles Wyndham. But for Maria, the stage is first, last- everythîng, and too late she rea- lizes that lastisg Isappiness is flot ta be found in tIse empty applause of the fickle crawd. Niail, with Iis unusual gift for sang writing, gaes ta Paris where he succeeds in delighting twa continents. He toa, is unhappy about bis successes with the mad- desing, catchy littie tunes Ise has produced and seeks, belatedly, ta achieve something worth-while with Isis musical ability . Celia stays with Pappy after Mama's tragic death, and us her1 devotion ta him sacrifices a prom- ising career as an illustratar. There is a strange bond wbich links this family together in spite of their triumphs in many cous- tries, and it is this fact which finally destroys them us an un- forgettable climax. This is a rather depressing stary of Iseartbreak and frustration. Usderneath the tinsel-brigbt flip- pancy which marks their sophisti- cated, gay circle, there is a patb- etic sha]Iowness to their way of life, wbich makes this story of a remarkable family and thse color-j fui world of talented people in1 wbich they mave, an exciting ex- perience. Written wvith thse usual du Maur- ier skiil, this novel promises ta be one of thse mast popular of tIse season. obtaining this vitamin. Some vita- min C can be lost when vegetables are stored for several months. A great deal of the vitamin C can be removed or destroyed when vegetables are improperly cook- ed. To obtain the most vitamin C for the money, vitamin C-rich vegetables like cabbage and tur- nips should be used raw in sal- ads or in wedges. If coaking is done, vegetables should be le ft in fairly large pieces and placed in boilîng water. As littie water as possible should be used and the cooking water shouid be sav- ed ta be used later in soup, gravy, or in vegetables or fruit juice drinks. Vegetabies taste better and vitamin C is retained ta a greater extent if cooking time is shortened and if thse vegetables are served as soon as possible after coaking. TAKE A TIP 1. When orange juice is made at home, be sure ta cream oranges at last minute or store juice in covered glass un electric refrig- erator. 2. Orange slices are aur favorite: Peel orange and slice crosswise, arrange in circle on bread and butter plate. 3. Make your servings af raw salads really generous. Add plenty of finely minced parsley, grated carrot, turnip or onian ta shredded cabbage, cooked potatoes or cooked lima beans. 4. Peeled, slivered carrots or tur- nips kept in a covered jar in the refrigerator make nourish- ing tidbits. 5. Tomatoes, canned in the jars or tins, contain much more vitamin C tIsas opes-kettle processed tomatoes. Serve com- mercially canned tomatoes cold, right from the can, ta get their best value.. 6. A dash of lemon juice added ta fish or salads at tIse table and your family will be re- warded-more Vitamin C. Anne Allan invite you ta write ta ber c/o The Canadian States- man.

"'Chinese Prince)) between Pana- ma and Los Angeles, Cal. 3rd January, 1950. Dear George, Well, bere we are, througb tIse year 1949 and also througb tIse Panama Canal. TIse first mention- ed event was celebrated in tIse usual masser and we were at sea at tIse time. The Scottish cus- tom of "First Footing" was cane- fully observed, even ta tIse tradi- tion of the dark mas and flot be- ing empty handed. For some rea- son tbat I Isave sot been able ta find out thse custom at sea is to first-foot with coal in one's Isand. Isasmuch as this us an oul burning sIsip thse coal was Isard ta find and, un fact, we had ta raid thse quar- ters of a part of the crew wIso, pnesumabiy for some religiaus reason, use coal in their galley. Incidentally there are on board tbree (3) distinct groups amongst the crew as follows. TIse deck crew (i.e. navigatisg etc..) are from Malay and are Mobamme- dans by religion. Thse engine room crev. are Indians (Pakistan) and, of course, are also Mohamme- dane. TIse stewards (Food, stores, etc.) are ail from Goa, a province of India near Bombay and. being of PortugueÉe descent, are Roman Catbolic by religion. TIse approach ta, and passing t14rough thse Panama Canal, was an event which we will neyer for- get. A whole book could be writ- teis about what we saw and wIsat must have gane ista its construct- ion. We approacbed tIse Atlantic Ocean entrance at Cristobal and Colas about nine o'clock in thse marning and blazing sunlight , and we finaliy ernerged from the last lock into the Pacific at six o'clock in thse evening. That is considened fairly fast as we were flot held up by any shipping ahead. TIse country on bath sides is very beautiful and for most of the way wbere tIse waterway becomes is- land studded lakes ose cauld imagine oneseif amongst tIse Tbousand Islands or Muskoka as Lake of thse Woods un Western Ontario. That cetainly was total- ly different ta any conception of a mas made waterway. A cnew (ah snegro) of about twcsty-five (25) and a pilot came as board at Cristobal and toak charge of tIse sbip ustil we had passed tIse last lock. The finst series of locks lift thse sbip ta the level of tIse lakes while tIse last series lowers thse sbip agais ta tIse level of tIse Pacific. I have beard somewhere that thse level of ane ocean is Iigher tIsastIse other but you mnust have Iseard in Bowmanville tIse noars of laughter from the ship's officers wben asked which ocean is thse Iigher. However, tIse Pilot came ta my rescue by asking what they were laughing at and stated that thse Pacific is six (6) feet Iigher tIsastIse Atlantic. TIsus there basi been a controversy going an ever since and tIse matter is sot yet satisfactorily settled. Perhaps you might look up your encyclopedia and insert thse right answem as an Editor's Note. Saying goadbye ta 1949 and tIse ushering in of 1950 took place soon after we estered the Pacifie. I should add bere too, the fact tbat tIse Canal Zone, which, I be- lieve, is under mandate ta U.S.A., is heavily fortified and studded with military encampments of al sizes, some quite large. Since leaving tIse Canal we bave been travelling un a gçneral N.W. direction with the States of Central America on our rigbt- starboard. I should say at this vcny moment we arc off the caast of Guatemala. Tonigbt we each a spot wbene there is nearly al- ways a severe "blaw"e, 50 every- thing is being made ship-sbape.
