Let us review the ele ments out of which such a code should be made. I believe m o s t parents would list ilrst: the quart of milk daily, taken in different forms; two or more vegetables, with at least one the green leafy variety daily; some fresh fruit; meat, fish and eggs; and bread and butter. j - From the publishers o f a weekly j 'N ew Deal? Soloman said that there is nothing N EW under the sun This N E W deal looks to us like a rearing Ipond for suckists in the age old game l of taking from the people that which j j they produce." Democratic Candidate for County Commissioner CIRCUIT JUDGE for Tillamook and Washington Counties The amount of sleep is impor tant; restful, quiet sleep. The young child should have an after noon rest in addition. Fresh air and sunshine must be in the health budget in liberal allotments. And the diminished sunshine of winter calls for one o f the fish liver oils as a regular item in the code. Be sun* that the child's right to playtime is honored. Lad nothing interfere with this natural heri tage. Permit some time every day when the child may do as he pleases. Consider seriously the an nual health examination by your family physician and dentist. In sure against smallpox and diph theria. There are the routine daily health habits such as cleanliness and elimination to be added to the code. Finally do everything pos sible to bring happiness to the child and to make him feel secure and safe. Give him companion ship; laugh with him; encourage his confidences. Newt teeek L>r.
