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-

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.

We'll never be as famous as Gertrude Stein, but nevertheless,
v-e think the poetess could have done better when it came to the
subject of roses. "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?" O.S.
