WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 17, 1921 EH I HI En Cee LO TR Bis mr -- RED CROSS TEACHES FOLKS HOW TO EAT Better Food Habits to be Brought to Attention of Mothers and Chil- dren; Teach With Games and Stories Progressive Cook county schools are lining up for the nutrition work as planned by Miss Louise J. Robert- son, Director of the Nutrition Depart- ment, Chicago Chapter, American Red Cross. An instructor is supplied free of ex- pense to the schools, and classes from the: kindergarten to the mothers (in- clusive) are taught the information of right food habits. "Everybody eats, and comparatively few cook," said Miss Robertson, "so we plan to train the eaters." If our life is made up of 90% of habits, the boy who is early taught the value of fresh vegetables and fruits will not be satisfied with a meat and starch diet; and the girl will not serve potatoes, macaroni and corn- starch pudding at the same meal. In the lower grades there are health games and jolly songs, and if you go by the schools of Argo, Summit, South Berwyn, Melrose Park, and hear something which reminds you of an approaching army, don't be fright- ened, for you will find that it is only a class singing to the tune of "Morn- ing Mr. Zip-zip-zip,' "Good morning little Vit-vit-vit, In our milk, eggs and butter fine, Good evening little Vit-vit-vit, Our good friends Vitamine. Long cooked oatmeal and sweet, And many other good things that healthy children eat, Good morning little Vit-vit-vit, In our milk and egss, our vegetables green, Our butter sweet, the vitamine." raisins N.
