WORLD RIGHTS ResERvED 3-19 7 Living To Promote Health Margaret E. Smith, Ph.B., M.S. Nutritionist ¥ THE FOUNDATION STONES OF HEALTH The building of a normal or deficient Health Regime starts at birth. By the time a' child is twelve months old it is developing vigorously if it has normal health. At this period of life the solid foods are being introduced in the diet, in small quantities. Other foods than milk are necessary. <A fifteen-months old baby should be getting small por- tions of the following foods, vegetable extracts or soups, cooked cereal, whole wheat toast, and bread, orange and tomato juice, a small amount of scraped beef, eggs cooked in water below the boiling temperature, apple sauce, prune pulp, milk and _ butter. Give cod liver oil every day. This sounds like a large and varied menu. It is a varied menu, but con- sider the amounts. The majority of the foods on the list are served in tea- spoon and a few in _ tablespoon amounts. These foods are the found- ation stones of the child's health. This is the period of life where the cunning and determined little child conquers or is conquered. This is the time when the mother, by patience, firmness, kindness, and de- termination, gets the child to eat the foods it should, and thus establishes habits and appetites that will lead to a normal health programme in mature life. On the other hand if the child is allowed to dictate by its fussing and crying and many clever little devices, what it intends to do and succeeds, it is unknowingly paving the road for trouble for itself in mature life. By the time a child is two years old it should be acquainted with tastes and flavors of all essential foods. Shakes- } ; peare wrote a short poem called "The Four Eras." These were Birth, Com- ing of Age, Marriage and Death. He spoke of these four divisions in the life cycles of people as outstanding. -- However, in the long stretch between -- birth and coming of age, there are the eras of the run-about child from one to six years of age, the era of adoles- cence. The former is a period of irre- sponsibility. The latter is a period of change, and in this era many grope, unaided, to undeystand themselves, To some, the responsibilities of life are very evident yet unsolved. Others -- have not a care in the world. 7 The heart beats about 70 times per minute. Each complete beat is spoken of as a cycle. In each cycle, every time that it occurs during the day and night, the heart contracts, expands, and rests. _ Therefore the heart gets approximately 70 short rests a min- ute. That is why it can work year in. and year out. ; One of the essentials for normal -- health is time for rest. We also need -- exercise, bathing facilities, clothing and shelter. Last, but not least, we need the right kind of food, correct -- moral habits, and correct food habits.

THE STRATFORD MIRROR EIGHTH ARMY ACROSS THE RIVER LAMONE Bad weather prevented any advance southwest of Faenza for several days, and the time was spent in preparing the roads--mostly mere country tracks -- for an attack across the river Lamone. On December 4, an attack was made by British troops, who secured a good bridgehead. Sappers prepared a ford and erected a trestle bridge over the river to allow armor and artillery to cross in support. ture shows the first obstacle outside Ravenna -- the blown bridge over South African Engineers start to build a new bridge. the river Uniti. Pic- WOOL-LIKE TEXTILE FIBRE IS MADE Starting metaphorically with a bag of peanuts and an idea, chemists of Imperial Chemical Industries Limited have developed a new textile fibre which is wool-like, does not shrink Known as Ardil, this new material is com- posed of vegetable protein, while wool is, of course, an animal protein fibre. After extraction of the oil, which constitutes 50 per cent. of the peanut, the protein content is extracted with dilute alkali, reprecipitated and then made into a spinning solution. This solution is processed like rayon to give a cream-colored, erimped, resili- ent staple fibre which resembles wool. It may be blended with wool. cotton or staple rayon, and yarns may be WILL DO THESWORK Baseboard Outlets installed cheaply without muss or fuss. é FROM PEANUTS made on the worsted; woollen or cot- ton systems according to the type of fibre required. Fabrics have been made purely of Ardil, the I.C.I. chemists report, but its best use is likely to be in combina- tion with wool to manufacture wors- teds, woollens, tweeds and _ knitted fabrics. Fabrics containing 50 per cent. Ardil are said to be scarcely dis- tinguishable from 100 per cent. wool. It is expected that Ardil will be cheaper than wool and so reduce the price of such fabrics. When mixed with cotton or rayon, Ardil changes the character of the finished fabric, adding warmth, full- ness of handle, resilience and a crease resistance to the cloth. Suits, coats and dresses have been made from such blended yarns and have behaved normally in wear. Large-scale consumption of woollen goods in Canada is stimulated by our brisk climate. At the same time we rank among the world's largest im-. porters of peanuts, which grow in vast quantities throughout the British Empire. The fuller utilization of the peanut, as demonstrated in the development of Ardil, suggests interesting possibil- ities of value to Canadians. Already, shelled and unshelled nuts and peanut butter are popular here, while peanut oil is used extensively for foodstuffs such as vegetable shortening and salad oils. Canada has little indigenous textile fibre production. New industry based on vegetable proteins simulating wool ranks in interest with rayon and ny- lon, which are made respectively from cellulose and coal. At present, work on Ardil is at the research stage. No samples are yet available for distribution. It is un- likely that production on a commer- cial scale will get under way until after the war.
