This week we wish to call your attention to an eminent nutrit- ionist who is doing an important job for the province. That per- son is Dr. E. W. McHenry, De- partment of Public Health Nut tion. He is chairman of the Ont- ario Interdepartmental Nutri- ition Committee, which will be re- sponsible for co-ordination, not only in the publication and distri- bution of nutrition material, but also in the planning of nutrition improvement programs.

And the following is an excerpt from the bulletin: Why Vi in C is needed: To help build bones and teeth (Vitamin D, calcium and phos- phorous are also needed for the same purpose.) To prevent scurvy, a disease in which there is a weakening of the walls of the small blood vessels. (One sign of scurvy is swollen gums that bleed easily.) To be healthy, an adequate in- take of vitamin C is needed. 'Where Vitamin C can be obtained Vitamin C is found in citrus fruits, berries, tomatoes, vitamin enriched apple juice, and certain vegetables, especially cabbage. Vitamin C is easily destroyed during cooking; a large portion of the vitamin C content of vege- tables can be lost in cooking. To ensure that satisfactory amounts of the vitamin are obtained, it is advisable to use good sources which are served without cook- ing. How much vitamin C Is needed Children need every day, the amount of vitamin C contained in any one of the following foods: 8 oz. tomato juice 1 medium size orange 1 one-half grapefruit 4 oz. orange juice, fresh or canned. 4 oz. vitaminized apple juice containing added vitamin C. 1 large serving cabbage salad Sufficient vitamin C can be ob- tained from 'a combination of readily available foods.
