Talking to Miss Ruth Ransom of the Department of Pensions and National Health, we asked how nutrition is being applied to industry. Her encour- aging reply was that "Manage- ment and labor are keeping up and increasing vital war produc- tion due to a newer knowledge of nutrition." The increasing war tempo makes demands on all- necessitating better health care. Miss Ransom is one 6f the Gov- ernment nutritionists who have been visiting war plants and col- lecting data about the food of workers. As a result, they know what workers eat and from ques- tionnaires as well, they have found the reason for the lag per- iods between the hours of 10 and 12 in the morning, and 3 and 5 in the afternoon. It's lack of proper nutrition! If 50,000 Canadian workers were not producing at their best for even one day, it would mean a loss in production equivalent to two bombing planes. Think of it ! Inquiries made of thinking men in many of these organizations showed that the remedy was an official short rest period, at which time those who eat inadequate breakfasts-and they are many- may be helped by enjoying a sandwich, some fruit, or a bottle of milk. With these facts in mind, we suggest that the busy homemaker prevent her lag period by a short rest and a glass of milk. Secondly, that she be more than ever on her toes to provide adequate daily table-meals and carried lunches for her family. Nutri-Thrift Lunches Balance these lunches with breakfasts consisting of stewed fruit, cold baked fruit or fruit juices, whole cereal with milk, dry toast with butter and jam, and a cup of hot beverage-occasion- ally sausages, cod fish balls, etc. Tomato Juice Scrambled Egg & Onion Sandwich Gingerbread Custard Graham Wafers Cocoa in Thermos Raw Cranberry Sandwich Boiled Tongue Sandwich Turnip Sticks Scones Canned Pears Milk Minced Weiner Sandwich Coleslaw Sandwich Devilled Egg Cherry Tart Hot Coffee Substitute Tomato Spaghetti Mold Tea Biscuits Cheese Wedge and Celery Sticks Bologna Sandwich Pumpkin Custard Hot Chocolate Vegetable Soup in Thermos Meat Loaf Sandwich Cauliflower Flowerets Apple Sauce Milk Bran Muffins Fish Salad Sandwich Pôtato and Celery Salad Fruit Cup Hot Tomato Juice in Thermos Cream Pea Soup Carrot Sticks Crackers Chopped Liver Sandwich Trifle Milk Apple Cream Celery Soup Brown Bread and Butter Sardine Sandwich Potato Chips Barley Raisin Pudding Fruit Juice And dinners consisting of meat, fish or cheese; potatoes, another vegetable, and a milk dessert if the vegetables are not creamed. The Question Box Mrs. A. C. asks: "How to pre- pare sweetbreads for frying." Answer: Sweetbreads should be plunged into cold water as soon as they are received, soaked for one hour, then simmered on elec- tric element for 20 minutes in salt- ed water to which vinegar is add- ed (1 tsp. salt, 1 tb. vinegar to 1 qt. water). Drain and plunge into cold water again to make firm. Remove strings and membranes (easily removed at this time). Heat by frying and season with salt, pepper and vinegar. Mrs. C. D. says: "No need to stew prunes. Place a cupful in a jar, fill up with boiling water, cover and let stand for a day at least. Serve without sugar." Miss M. M. says: "Dry pumpkin seeds, clip one side, remove meat and serve on top of chocolate blanc mange, soups, etc." Anne Allan invites you to write to ber clo The Statesman.
