Stalactites occur In the Interior of the lava caves found In Hawaii and Samoa. Weight li usually an Indication of the state of health. People who weigh decidedly more or decidedly less than the average for their height and age. says the Bureau of Home Economics of the U. 8. Department of Agricul ture, should satisfy themselves that they are In best health as they are, or else do something to correct both health and weight. But they should not make any mistake in what they do about this. Unless the doctor has some special orders to fit the indi vidual case, the right thing for both the overweight person and the under weight Is to regulate the diet. And that means balance the amount of energy-giving foods they eat with the energy they expend. To do this does not mean cutting out particular kinds of food in order to reduce, or adding certain kinds to gain weight. It means eating less of certain kinds If you are reducing. Or it means eating more of those, and perhaps of all kinds. If you want to Increase your weight. In either case you should not and to correct yuur weight you need not stop eating any of the different classes of food that furnish the materials of a well rounded diet. You should go on us ing milk and cheese, vegetables and fruits, bread and cereals, meat, fish, poultry or eggs, and even some fat and sugar. It takes all those differ ent kinds of food to supply the pro teins, minerals, and vitamins neces sary for good health, and the calories or energy units required to keep the body actively on Its Job. Check on Calories But keep a check on the calories, for it Is Important not only to make sure of enough, but to stop short of too many. Your body needs only I what It can use properly. The surplus usually goes to fat. Don't worry about your weight, however, say the nutritionists, unless you are more than 6 per cent above or below the average for your height and age, as worked out by the Insur ance companies. Variation less than that may be accounted for by body build, for big-boned people naturally weigh more than small-boned people of the same height. But when the scales run more than S per cent off the average, the time has come to do something, and probably It Is some thing about your diet. If you find you should correct your diet, weigh yourself every day to see what Is hapepnlng. as you go along, but don't try to gain or lose too rapidly. One or two pounds a week Is enough. And above all. don't take anything to reduce. Much Illness Is caused that way. You oan reduce safely if you content yourself with fewer and smaller servings of fats and starchy foods. If you are under weight, reverse these directions and eat more, especially of the fat-producing foods. Points to Remember Here are points to keep In mind about the different kinds of food when correcting your weight: .Milk plays an Important role In both the reducing and the fattening diet. Don't get the Idea that you can not use milk and reduce. You can't afford not to use It In some form. Just keep the calories low by drink ing skim milk and butter-milk, eat ing cottage cheese, and using very little cream and butter. For a fattening diet, help yourself liberally to whole milk, use plenty of butter, cream and whole-milk cheese. Drink afternoon or bed-time "milk shakes" with egg or fruit Juice, and use things cooked In milk or served with cream sauce. Bread and Cereals, whether white or dark, are among the hlgh-calorle foods. 80 It la a question of the quantity you use. Use cold or hot breads as you like, but use hot breads carefully If you are reducing, for they tempt you to use too much butter. ' Flared and swagger lines are strong ly endorsed In new coat styles of sporty character, some showing grad ual Increase of width from shoulder to hem, others following stralghter lines to the hips and flaring notice ably at the bottom from low placed fulness. Sleeve armholes are wide and roomy with raglan shoulders much featured, while sleeve outlines display fulness 'twlxt elbow and wrist In most cases. Checks have, by far, the leading preference In sports modes, being shown in many versions, plain checks and over checks, crossbars and plaids, hounds' tooth and shadow effects In hairy fleeces and nubby tweeds. Two and three contrasting color combinations predominate such as beige with brown, red with brown, light green with dark green, pink with gray, brown, yellow and mauve or yellow, blue and beige. The very swagger seven eights length, fur collared coat sketched above Is particularly suited to col lege wardrobes or for women who pre fer a utility coat of spectator type. It Is of fine checked woolly surfaced fabric In brown and beige with a pouch collar of beaver. The raglan styled sleeves show low placed ful ness with fitted cuffs and the two patch pockets are large and roomy. One brown button fastens this coat at the throat. SMALL COUNTIES UNABLE GET PWA Oregon Senator Claims Lack of Engineers and Archi tects Causing Discrimi nation ,in Fund Allocation WASHINGTON, Aug. 14. (AP) Sen ator Frederick Selwer. Portland. Ore Republican, today charged that small counties, unable to employ engineers or architects, were being discriminat ed against In the allocation of public works funds. In a letter to Harry L. Hopkins, works progress administrator, Stelwer said numerous projects, designed to remove approximately 1,200 persons from the direct relief rools in Colum bia county, Oregon, were given no consideration because the county has no county engineer or architect. The Oregon senator asked Hopkins to give the matter his personal attention. Columbia Case Cited "I am told," Stelwer wrote, "that the planning committee for Columbia county. Oregon, where there are 1. 200 persons upon relief, has outlined . nnmhor nf nrolecta that would i transfer from relief rolls to work per sons In serious distress; tnai sever nt-nlaWl wnlllrl b Belf-llCHll- dating, including a hospital, a dock, a swimming pool, municipal tennis courts, sidewalks and street improve ments. There also Is a project for the survey of 50.000 acres of logged off land owned by the county, with a view to development of part of tha area for grazing ana me rfmniuuct for replanting with trees; also a road to be constructed between Columbia muntv'11 two nrinclDal towns. St. Hel ens and Vernonia. that would employ 300 workers. Should Olre Aid Tnlumbia. countv has made appli cation to the works progress adminis tration for tne consideration 01 mmo projects, the senator wrote, out thaf. fnnslriorntlnn has been Withheld because this county has no county engineer or architect. It would seem ti m that tn such a situation, the j county being unable to maintain the services of such officials, mat me requisite technical assistance should be afforded to pass upon the merit of the proposed projects. Doubtless other counties are In the same situa tion, and it would seem most unfor tunate if meritorious undertakings,, which would promote the transfer of persons on relief to' work relief in nh rmintiM. should be barred from serious consideration by your admin istration for such a reason. - To keep down the calories in your breakfast cereal, use it with milk. For a fattening diet, use more bread, more biscuits or muffins at a meal, with butter. And use cereal with cream and sugar. Vegetables and fruits are import ant for their food value, no matter whether you want to reduce or to gain. But you choose them according to their calorie value, and you regu late the size of the servings. That Is to say, if you are reducing, you lean heavily on the low-calorie vegetables and fruits, such as cabbage, squash, leafy greens of all kinds, melons and the Juicy fruits. Jf you want to gain weight, eat more of the hlgh-calorle vegetables and fruits, such as pota toes, sweet potatoes, beans, peas, avocadoes. bananas, olives, prunes, figs, and raisins. Remember, however, that all vege tables and fruits can be fattening if served with rich sauce. ; .Nuts Fattening Nuts are a concentrated food, rich In fat and protein. If you are reduc ing do not use them If you have meat, fish. eggs, or cheese, that day. For a fattening diet, add nuts to your meal, unless they overtax your diges tive system. Vat and Sweets of all kinds. If you are reducing, must be kept down to a minimum. Pure fats yield 214 times j as many calortea as sugar or starch. If you are too fat. go light on butter, cream, salad dressings, and meat drippings, on fruits containing a good deal of fat, like olives and avo cado pears, and dishes prepared with fat. such as pastry and rtch gravies. A little butter and cream, however, are allowed even in a. reducing diet, because they are valuable sources of vitamin A. Sugar and all other sweets are fat tening. For dessert, if reducing, de pend on fruits, lightly sweetened If at all. Most prepared desserts contain too much sugar, and often too much fat also, to be suitable for the person who wants to lose weight. On the other hand, to gain weight, season liberally with fata and sugar; enjoy rich gravies and desserts, and add a little Jelly or 0 marmalade, plenty of salad dressing, and some candy and nuts now and then to a diet already well-balanced. . Cut Portions to Reduce Meat, Fish. Poultry and Errs furn ish most of our protein requirement, but this Is partly met by milk and cheese, and by proteins in cereals tn some vegetables, and In nuts. If re ducing, use only a small aerving each day of strictly lean meat, or lean fish such as cod and halibut, or oysters raw or stewed with milk. Avoid grav ies, and butter sauces. For a rattening diet. Include the fatter meats such as fresh pork, ham. and bacon: season with their drip pings; use the leaner meats and poul try With their fat- nnri nut fof tv such as salmon, sardines, herring, and iiiaiKerei, Soups are not fattening unless made with whole milk nr wMHeh-n with fat. Meat broth, vegetable soup maue wun meat stock, though bulky and filling, are comparatively low In calories.
