O R C E By Ted O’Loughlin © — WNU The F E A T H E R H E A D a, S Osborne - ©— WNU Famous Food Expert To Conduct Feature D EGINNING with this, issue this paper is pleased to an nounce a new series of articles which we believe to be the most original and up to date food department in the country. We wanted to offer a food department that was live—in teresting-different. We wanted to get away from the usual “ recipe column.” We believe the women of this community are primarily interested in food in its relation to health, in its effect on growing children. In formation of this sort has usu ally been too scientific to be understood by the average per son, but in this series it is pre sented in clear, understandable language and applied so that it will fit the average household. C. Houston Goudiss, famous author, lecturer, and radio per sonality, will conduct this de partment each week. Many housewives will want to make scrapbooks of these articles.

Oregon Reading Speeds Some discoveries through the ophthalmograph, a device for tak ing motion pictures of a reader’s eye movements: An untrained adult reads 200 words a minute, pauses 120 times, goes back twenty-three times per 100 words. An average college student, who can read 325 words a minute, pauses only eighty times, goes back ten times per 100 words. In one office where tests were made the best paid stenographer read 461 words. Fastest reader ever tested, an eighteen-year-old high school boy who evidently had an unusually large macula (a yellow spot in the retina, most sensitive point of vi sion), in one test read 2,202 words a minute with excellent compre hension.—Time Magazine. ■ ¡■ R S I 4 cups of U thaw you the imp K E E P C LEA N IN S ID E !
