Edw. Berthold officiating. 1 v Would You Be Fooled'--About Food Faddism? Everyone prides himself on not being gullible--the sideshow is a fake, the mystic is "pooh-poohed." No one fools him here. What draws us to the carnival? Probably it's the desire for the magic. The same desire leads us to believe exciting claims for some specific food. Without scientific proof, this food or food product is said to njake us strong or cure our ills--that is, for a fancy price. Of such, is the beginning of food faddism. It is this human urge to be healthy or to be slim in "one fell swoop," that opens the way for the promoter of food fads. He often is short on knowledge and long on sales appeal. Some maketa fanatical play of "health foods" and "natural foods." They are fdods, true enough, but not wonder foods. A good varied diet of foods that any grocery store can supply will provide just as good nutritional health. One of the country's eminent nutrition authorities, Dr. Fredrick J. Stare bf Harvard University, recently wrote, "Refined and processed foods are a favorite target of the 'food specialist,' who would have us believe these foods are not nutritious. Actually, we get as much food value from refined foods which have been enriched as from natural foods, and sometimes more. This is not to say that enriched white bread is better than brown l^ead or vice versa. For all practical purposes, in typical American aiets, they are identicalin food value. Choose whichever tastes better to you." Whether or not a food is "natural" is not important. The nutritional value of any food as the source of a specific nutrient, as the B vitamin^, depends upon the composition of that food. For example, peanuts and eggs are both natural foods, yet peanuts contain 200 times more niacin (a B vitamin) than eggs. On the other hand, the same size slices of whole wheat and enriched white bread--natural and refined foods, respectively--contain almost identical amounts of niacin and thiamin--the whole wheat containing slightly less riboflavin. Good nutrition is easy to accomplish when thought of in terms of a wide variety of meats, fish, enriched or whole wheat breads, fruits and vegetables, dairy products and eggs. No foolin', no one food '• or group of foods has the "complete majrical answer." AT NEW PROGRAM FOR VETS INSTITUTED BY AIR FORCE The United States Air Force has instituted a new and rewarding program for veterans of any service, Sgt. Cosmos, local Air Force recruiter, said this week. "One of the special new phases of the program is a plan that allows skilled veterans of any service to reenfist in their highest grade or rank, although they may have been .discharged more than ^ninety days," Sgt. Cosmos said. ^ "The veteran who enlists now will also be' able to take thirty days advance leaVe before reporting to tiis base of assignment," the sergeant added. The Air Force now allows veterans with needed skills to apply for the base of their choice on reenlistment. "I have literature explaining these new changes in the Air Force," he said. "Veterans desiring this literature on these new policies, should contact me at 13 South Spring street, Elgin," he added. Shop at Home and SAVE! . Governor William G.

NAME ADDRESS CITY PHONE < V Ip» ' * ' * mam Beyond the Realm of Argument t This is the season when conversations turn easily and often to motor cars. And, in almost any gathering, you're likely to find a wide difference of opinion about the relative merits of the year's automotive offerings. Until the talk turns to Cadillacl •Here is one car concerning which most motorists have a meeting of minds. And never before has Cadillac left so little room for argument as in 1956! Certainly no one could behold the new Cadillac without recognizing it as the "car of cars". Its beautiful, graceful, * flowing lines ... its regal bearing on the highway ... and its long, low silhouette are simply too significant to misunderstand. Surely no one could ride in a new Cadillac and not agree that it is the Standard of the World. Its new fabrics and leathers are rich and luxurious almost beyond belief. . . and its interior appointments have been crafted with a jeweler's skill. And we doubt if anyone could drive a new Cadillac and not understand that it is the finestperforming motor car of all time. Its great new engine is a revelation in power and performance ... its new Hydra-Matic Drive is incredibly smooth and responsive . . . and the car rides and handles and moves with almost unbelievable ease. Truly, the evidence on the side of Cadillac has never been more abundant--or more apparent-- than it is today. Why not come in soon--and see for yourself? We'll be delighted to introduce you to Cadillac's great new styling . . . and to arrange a demonstra* tion at tKe wheel . . . and to acquaint you wit!) Cadillac's two new models, the Sedan de Ville and the Eldorado Seville. • You'll agree, we're certain, that Cadillac for 1956 is beyond the realm of argument 1 OVERTON CADILLAC PONTIAC Co. 400 FRONT STREET McHENRY, ILL.
