But. poor posture and a lack of energv are not the only prices p;.id for inadequate poiein rm lnlion. Di . Stearns emphasized. Children suffering from fatigue posture a!.-o &' cm to be more susceptible to disease and once sick are slower to recover. As in example, she cited a study showing that children given high-protein diets during con valescence from rheumatic fever had as low an incidence of re currence of the disease as child ren givej-i preventive doses of antibiotics. Dr. Stearns reported to the conference that studies over a 2o-year period al the Iowa School of Medicine have shown that children require more high-protein foods in their diets than ha previously been recom mended. Scientists have long be lieved that infants, because of their high ra! of growth. re- Knights of Squire more protein thaji do old I er children.

Main Medford St'-ams. older children require proportionately as much, and perhaps more, high-quality pro tein foods such as meat, milk and eses. The rea.-on for this high pro tein requirement is that although the tremendous weight gains of infancy drop off at about eight ee.. months of age, body muscle should increase to its adult pro portion about 45 percent of body weight by or before the twelfth year. In other words. Dr. Stearns said, during this period the body muscle must in crease at nearly twice the rate of the increase in body weight. Thus, fatigue posture cannot be blamed simply on the fact that the child ' doesn't sit prop erly" or "slouches around with his hands In his pockets." In stead, it must be realized. Dr. Stearns said, that these children probably do not have the muscle development necessary for good posture. And the only way prop er body muscle can be built is bv eatina adequate amounts of high-quality protein foods. Fur thermore, in these kinderyarden and early school years, child hood diseases are common and good protein reserves are neces sary to help the child regain health quickly. How much protein is adequate to prevent fatigue posture and maintain health0 Dr. Stearns re commends that between the ages of eighteen months and four years the child eat a daily min imum of three glasses of milk, a serving of meat, one egg. and cereals and other vegetable pro teins customarily served. The same diet, with slightly larger portions, and perhaps an extra glass of milk and a peanut but ter sandwich "snack." will in sure good muscle growth in the older youngster. As protein foods contain so many of the nutrients essential for good health, "generous use of protein is the cheapest nu tritional insurance we can buy for children," Dr. Stearns de clared.

"A rose is a rose is a rose" is what Miss Stein I wrote about one of the most beautiful flowers in the world. If : Miss Stein could have seen the blossoms of First Love and Pink Favorite and others exhibited by the Medford Rose society mem bers last Monday nu;ht, she would have changed her mind about a rose just being a rose. i There's a lot of crossed fingers in the society right now. for the i annual convention of the Northwest district. American Rose soc ' iety, open? here Friday and that same day the society is having j its yearly show at Medford High school. Now if the weather will ! be just riaht and it doesn't hail or something, there will be dozens of exquisite blooms on display, j ; Petroleum Pcazy came to our rescue artain this week and sup ; plied some timely information about roses and Poetess Stein. ! The rose is said to be the first flower cultivated, according to Peggy, and it is still a favorite with millions. Garden roses were grown in Greece in the fifth century B.C., and in the Roman era ' there was a variety of roses lavishly used. Ancient China had rose ! gardens and so did Syria. Legends says that the Moors brought the very first yellow rose into Europe when they invaded Spain, i Roses were used medicinally and for perfume in the Middle Ages. and its fruit was made into conserves, just as it is today, j In fairness tn Petroleum Peggy, we feel obligated to add some ; of her propaganda from the petroleum industry comes the oil ! based plastic film which nurserymen use to prevent the roses , from drying out before they reach your garden, and the industry's j scientists compound the insecticides to protect the bushes from j insects and diseases. ..... 1 Miss Stein gave us an idea. too. "A house tour is a house tour i is a house tour." That's all there is to it. A tour of five interesting i and beautiful and charming homes is just what the Junior Service ; league says. You pay your money and you visit the houses. You can stroll through the garden, the living room and the dining room, the kitchen and even the bedrooms. And while strolling you can pick up ideas about color schemes and petunia beds and swimming pools: you can find out how one couple solves the heating problem and another likes to plant vines in old coffee grinders. You can learn how a house can be furnished with art objects and antique furniture and still be a home and not a museum: if you already have a houseful of little ones and another on the way. you can learn how one couple increased the size of the house to the size of the family. If it's a new home in the offing, the tour will be a fruitful way to exchange ideas with other homemakers about how to plan a kitchen or furnish a family room. In short, a houce tour an accepted and popular way of raising money in almost every large city of the nation, can be interesting j and educational. And if you want to be real frank about the j whole thing it's a way to see the inside of homes you may never see otherwise. And it has nothing to do with Rogue Valley Country club. Probably because the league's benefits of the past hae usually been at the club, a few prospective patrons can't seem to switch to the new idea. The tour won't even go near the country club tea will be served at one of the homes. ..... The President's wife hunts bargains in foods. This interesting tid bit has been revealed by Edwin H. Akins. manager of a Colon ial Stores super-market about one mile from the Augusta National Golf club, site of the Eisenhower's vacation cottage. "She knows what she wants she recognizes values." the manager declares. If tomatoes seem a bit high. Mamie just doesn't busy them. One time. Mr. Akins recalls. Mrs. E. remarked that the tomatoes in his market weren't as large as the ones they raised at the Gettysburg farm. And Mamie also picks up her trading stamps. One of Mrs. Eisenhower's purchases puzzled the manager. She ence bought five two-pound packages of pinto beans, saying the president liked them. "Tliat's a lot of beans, even for the Presi dent," said Mr. Akins. The Army wife, still in New Fork City while the soldier is at Ft. Dix awaiting transportation to Heidelberg, Germany, wrote last week to say that she took the bus down one afternoon to visit the camp. "The trip took an hour and a half, most of which was on the New Jersey turnpike. They run busses directly from New York to Fort Dix. The New Jersey countryside, once you pass the smelly oil refineries around Bayonne. is very pretty and simi lar in some ways to the Rogue valley. Right now everything is green, and after spending months surrounded with steel and con crete, it was a welcome sight to this country mouse. I am really quite happy that we are going to Heidelberg. It is one of the few towns that wasn't bombed, and is supposed to be a cultural cen ter. It is reasonably close to Switzerland. France. Belgium and Luxembourg and Gustav's home town seems to be about 100 miles away." Gustav is a German pen pal with whom she has corre sponded since junior high school days in Medford. . Milt Vjllner tells this one: "A woman and hfr little girl were dining at the Famous Chef restaurant. Just before they left, the woman said to the waitress 'Will you please wrap up this beef for our dog?' 'Mother!' interjected the child, all excited, "are we get ting a dog?"
