On the side are grenades from which more laurels spring, and the principal side, facing the road, hears the inscription, in French, "Here "the invader was driven back, 1918."

The boy uses a tremendous amount of enecgy, and at the same time is often growing faster each year than at any other period since babyhood. Three and a half Inches annual increase In height la not unnsual at this age. Cereal Foods Satisfy. The United States Department of. Agriculture has worked out simple tables showing how many pounds of ordinary foods give the most calories per week, and how many hundredcalorie portions are contained in a pound or other measure by which foods are bought. Calories are the units by which energy, or the power to do work, is measured. The average person over twelve yearn of age requires 27 hundred-calorie portions of food a day, or about 190 a week. This is true of a man or a boy using little muscular energy in work or play, or of a woman or glri who uses a good deal. A very active man or boy may need as much as 40 hundred-calorie portions a day, or 280 In a week. These must be distributed among the five food groups, so that fruits and vegetables furnish about one-fifth, protein-rich food another fifth; fats and fat foods a fifth; cereal foods, such as bread, and foods made of .flour, rice, cornmeal and other cereals, three-tenths; sweets, onetenth. , Inexpensive Material. In the family of moderate means the problem often is to provide a quantity of good inexpensive satisfying material from each group, rather than articles calling for highpriced Ingredients or delicate cookery. Most boys prefer doughnuts to pound cake; dumplings and lots of gravy please l»etter than small portions of expensive meat cuts. Milk In large quantities helps body building and growth by the protein, lime, and vitamines that It supplies: while succulent vegetables, salads, tomatoes, oranges, and other fruits furnish the indispensable vitamines as well as bulk. Active boys crave and require plenty of butter, bacon or othep sources of fat. They are also notoriously greedy with sweet things, like Jam, honey, candy, and sweet desserts, and there is no barm in these sugar foods if they are served at the right time and providing all of them together do not furnish more than 10 per cent of energy of the total food uaed, as Indicated above.

Place layers of the chicken, vegetable mixture, and rice id cooking vessel until all is used. Pour over this one cupful boiling water. Simmer for onehalf hour and put in flreless cooker for three hours without hot disk or two hours with it. Additional seasoning of ham or bacon, parsley, and bay leaf may be used. A ham bone may be substituted for the ham or bacon. If this is done, boll it for onehalf hour In enough water to cover. Then add one cupful of the ham broth to the tomato before cooking it with the bay leaf. This recipe offers a good way to use chicken-soup mixture. When necessary,, thicken the. broth with a little browned flour before putting the chicken Into the cooker. PROPER FOOD COMBINATIONS Diet Made Up.of Right Proportions of Starch, Fat and Sugar Will' Be Satisfactory. _ In addition to an understanding of the five food groups, It Is well to know what proportions to use of the foods in each gronp, the United States Department of AgrietHtute points out. As a rule, the diet will be sufficiently bulky and flavorful and will furnish the right proportions of starch, fat, and sugar for the taste of most people if the vegetables and fruits furnish about 20 per cent of the fuel; the milk, meat, eggs and similar foods, 20 per cent; the cereal foods, 30 per cent; sweets, 10 per cent; and fatft and fat foods, 20 per cent. A diet made up on these proportions will also furnish satisfactory kinds and amounts of protein, mineral substances and vitamines, >411 >4ouiid Ihe House •etter Hi ithe the and say, he *&: , . - " A very srve six to The un: bundle hit' its contents Needless to the wash, and he back home.
