Sound teeth and bones depend largely on an adequate amount of calcium, and milk gives easily the best natural supply of this min- eral. Children need at least ane- and-a-half pints a day, and the minimum for adults shauld bc half-a-pint a day. A Canadian diet survey show- ed that 40 per cent of the people stuidied were not getting enough calcium. By drinking more milk, flot only is this deficiency madE up but protein, fat and phosphor- ons are also supplied. Because ai this, milk is properly regarded as the nearest ta a perfect food. It can be taken in many forms and each of themn is beneficial Cheese is high in protein and when available can be used as s substitute for meat, f isb or eggs Skim, mîlk is inexpensive in many localities and contains ahl the min. eral content of whole milk.

MATRIMONIAL MONEY Yes, Mary and I've been married now A couple-a months or so, We were engaged for years and years, Since 'way back, long ago. The reason we weren't married long Ago was simply this: We weren't prepared, financially, For matrimonial bliss. Sa one night Mary said to me: "I have a wondrous plan, We'll save and save for one whole year, Save every cent we can. Don't come to see me once this .year, We'll stay home ail the time, And spend for only needful things But not another dime." We both stayed home and saved and saved, And when the year was through, Her heart was sad for she had saved, In dollars-twenty-two. But 1 told her she'd done real well, She moaned: "Look how we've tarried." So we put what she'd saved with My Five dollars, and got married. -RALPH GORDON.1 1 628 Crawford St., Toronto. CARE NECESSARY IN LAUNDERING WOOLLENS Cane in laundering blankets and other woollens is just one more way of economizing ta release al the new wool possible for the use of our armed forces. There are not many rules for correct washing of woollens, but break one of themn and the harm is dane. First and most important; use lukewarm water and mild soap. Heat in the presence of soap has a bad effect on wool, and may shrink it, yellow it, 'felt' it, or make it hard and boardy. Use two or three rinses of the same temperature as the wash water. If a piece of wool is plung- ed from warm saap suds inta cold water, the soap will cake and won't rinse out. And the alkali in soap has a weakening effect on wool as well as making it harsh. Wool should be moved about as littie as possible while it is wet. For some reasan, moving wet wool around too much makes it 'felt,' and once that happens noth- ing can be done ta restore its soft resiliency. For this reasan, toa it should be soaked, but should be dipped up and down in the clean- sing process rather than rubbed, pounded or jerked, and a squeez- ing rather than wringing process be used to remove water. Woollens should be dried in a wam lae but away from con- tact with direct heat. Bright sun- shine will make thema yellow. To dry blankets hang them length- wise over a dlean clothesîjue with hall on each side. Clothespins stretch the edges. Reverse the blanket several times after it is partially dry, and from tame to time straighten the edges and squeeze out water as it collects at edges.
