prunes and slit down one side to

style peanut butter and serve on
lettuce. It's good with or without
dressing.

Begin Day
It's up to mothers to see that
their children have an adequate
breakfast before they go dashing
off to school these winter days.
Cooked prunes, hot cereal, cocoa
and buttered toast is about right.
Papa could pick up a Valentine's Day cake from the baker's and a bunch of violets from
the florist and make quite a name for himself as a thoughtful husband around home next
Thursday. Local bakeshops have cakes for all special occasions, and needless to say, the
florist can usually find flowers appropriate to every special holiday.

they'll be already to serve.
Fresh winter pears ara In the
markets these days and perfect for
all kinds of delicious salads com

in lemon juice. Serve on shredded
lettuce with a plump pitted prune

this combination of dried peaches

Children should have a regular
bedtime, for this produces better
sleeping habits. They are easily
upset if their bedtimes are too
varied. A calm, quiet and happy
home atmosphere encourages sleep
and a good, firm foundation in
sures rest and relaxation.

Booklet on Diets
The U. S. record of food pro
duction and the reputation of this
country for food abundance and
well-fed people has been a matter
of national pride. Food supplies
are large enough to more than
meet average per capita nutrition
al needs.
But neither averages nor totals
give the whole diet picture, nutrit
ion scientists of the U. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture say. Food con
sumption studies show that many
famines and individuals In cities
and on farms are not getting the
kinds and amounts of food needed
for both physical and mental well
being. In the present emergency,
underfed bodies which cannot be
fully efficient are a handicap to
full national effort.
Though malnutrition is most
common among low-income fam
ilies, an ample pocket book is no
guarantee of an adequate diet.
People of every income level need
to be alerted to the part food plays
in their health and vigor and then
know how to choose foods for their
nutritional requirements. ..
Single copies of "Nutrition, Up to
Date, Up to You" (GS-1) may be
