By ETHELYN EVANS A widely traveled Manor member, Miss Irma Barnes, Sth floor, who came here from Carmel, has returned from a trip to South America practically all over that continent, traveling by air, of course. Miss Barnes, who taught Spanish in the Univer sity of New Mexico, had no trouble with the language in ASose countries.

Another 5th floor neighbor, Mrs. Buford Clark, who main tains a daily schedule at the Jackson County Welfare de partment, is being welcomed back to the Manor after a full month in Hawaii at a sugar plantation jetting it both ways. She has many in teresting tales to tell of plan tation life. Manor members, as I have mentioned, have a habit of eternally dashing in and out of the Manor and the valley. The very successful editor of our house bulletin "Hill-Top-Ics" insists he would need a big daily newspaper to keep up with members and their guests our guest rooms are filled each night and reservations made for weeks ahead. Therefore, you will understand why I report on a hit-or-miss basis, often about .neighbors on my own mm Two valley families each ate an extra meal last week just so The Mail Tribune could take the pictures for today's page on better breakfasts. The four young Fredericks didn't mind at all having a second breakfast along about 10:30 a.m and the Anhorns out in Central Point had a "make believe breakfast at 4:30 in the afternoon. When we apologized for the trouble, Mrs. Frederick said cheerfully "My children can eat any lime" and Mrs. Anhorn said the same thing. Both families proved it, too. When Bill Anhorn came home from his day's work with the state highway department he was introduced to the callers by his mother and headed straight for the ice box and cookie jar. Shortly thereafter Jeff arrived home from Faber's market where he has a summer job and, immediately aner introductions, asKed When do we eat, mom? We were inspired to do this page of pictures about better breakfasts because of the quantity of material on food and nutrition which has come across our desk in the last 10 or 12 years. It came from governmental agencies, nutrition research foundations, extension service specialists and other sources. Ihey all said Many Americans, particularly young people going to school, don't eat the right kind of break fast." They also stressed that the diet in this country is loo heavy in starches and sugars and deficient in protein, calcium and fresh fruit and vegetables. In a country where there is such an abundance of food, this seemed ridiculous but as the experts grew more insistent in their publications and statements, we finally decided it must be the case.. We've had the cooperation of the Rogue Valley Home Economists in Homemaking in this better breakfast project, and copied some excerpts from the books they brought down for our perusal. Are you a breakfast snatcher or dodger? Well, listen to Nanalee Clayton writing in "Young Living" a homemaking textbook used in the Medford schools. She says "You may want to eat your own kind of breakfast, but if you choose nutritious food, why not? Here are some unusual breakfast suggestions that will begin your days right until you decide to "join the family" and their regular breakfast. Hot soup with crackers, toast, or a handful of cereal. Cocoa or milk and oatmeal cookies or other cereal cookies. Milk drink with peanut butter toast. Hamburger and milk. For breakast, try the hamburger with butter instead of mustard. Thin slices of broiled liver with toast and milk. Sandy, the Cub, couldn't go for the liver, but admitted that she loves peanut butter toast and might try it for breakfast. Potpourri once had a bowl of chicken soup for breakfast and thought it was right good for a change. If junior's grades aren't what they should be, maybe he isn't lazy after all maybe he's hungry. According to the U. S. Department of Agriculture, students who don t eat a proper breakfast don't make as good a showing In school as those who do eat before going to classes. The 1959 Year book of Agriculture said: "Breakfast commonly is the day's poorest meal. Children who skip breakfast are less well fed than those who regularly eat breakfasts. In olherwords, children do not generally make up at other meals the nutrients which they miss in skipped breakfasts. We have indications from research studies that the children who do not eat breakfast do less well in school, perform physical tasks loss well, and may be more irritable and emotionally unstable. "The breakfast pattern (as well as lotal nutritive intake) lends to become progressively worse from the early ele mentary school years to adolescence. Girls in general eat less well than boys. "Poor breakfasts often have been blamed on lack of hunger, rushing to get to school, no regular family break fast time, and dislike of the foods commonly served at breakfast. Young children give the same reasons as do their parents. Only by placing the blame where it belongs and by removing the underlying causes can we solve the problem. "Nutritionists who have compared groups of children who eat nutritionally adequate breakfasts with those who do not find that the former feel less rushed, enjoy eating breakfast with their families, and appreciate the fact that their mother prepares an appealing breakfast. "Efforts to lessen the tensions of the overorganizrd life of the ynuna child and to serve the breakfasts that appeal to him are positive ways in which to improve his breakfast hahits." The Yearbook also advocated more originatity in break fast menus, as follows: "Our breakfasts have become too trite in pattern. No one needs to eat an e?g and toast or cooked cereal for break fast every day to be well nourished. A ham sandwich, a hamburger in a bun made of enriched flour, or a toasted cheese sandwich are excellent foods, which many children seem to prefer. ' To be adequate, breakfast need only rontain a protein high food, at least one food for energy, some milk and a piece of fruit or a serving of fruit juice. Many families find that the habit of having fruit high in vitamin C or fruit juice at breakfast insures that such a food is included in the day's meals. Children who regularly have a vitamin C fruit at breakfast very likely have good diets in general, perhaps be cause the informed and conscientious mother who includes such a fruit in the breakfast is giving greater care to the planning of adequate meals for her family. If the fruit is pre ferred at another time and is eaten regularly some time or other every day. there is no need to include it in the break fast. ' Some nutritionists believe that breakfast served al school is an answer. Some schools that have tried this plan report that the children and the teachers are enthusiastic about the idea " Breakfast at school is better than no hrrakfast. of rnursr. ! but this writer is a firm advocate of fani'ly meals Familv I solidarity and the feeling of shared love and security which a family ran give its members is as important as good fcod. ! and meal time can be the time to promote this. - P. S. floor (Sth) or members I meet just before the dead-line for this column who are taking off or returning or piloting their families and friends around the Manor. I seem to have made a dis covery: the American people are very "culinary-minded"! We have recently returned from our seventh trip since moving into the Manor tra veling on these various tours in all four directions. I meet so many people when away from home (also in our val ley) who are interested in Rogue Manor. However, when I launch into an enthu siastic description of our Manor home, so often I am stopped abruptly by such questions as . . . "How is the FOOD? How is it cooked and served? What about meal rules and other regulations?" Evidently, many have friends and relatives in other such residences, and in some places they are required to eat by-the-bell, are assigned to specific tables with as signed companions, and are hedged about with almost as many taboos, rules and regu lations as there are members. These questioners and others who visit us in the Manor seem a bit dubous but re lieved when they hear that this Manor was the "pilot" residence not only in an un usually well-planned physical plant but, also, in seeking to abolish unnecessary rules and in seeking to establish a place much like an apartment hotel, with each apartment a private home; a residence planned for mature, inde pendent adults coming from communities in which they were looked up to, their con duct and judgment respected, and where often they were honored for top professional excellence and community service. I find upon Investigation that many of the new resi dence homes are following and even exceeding the Manor plan, and that older establishments are rapidly making changes accordingly. We are often forced to change our minds about most of our members being off on tours and vacations when our big auditorium fills to capa city for a good, full length movie or an excellent musical program. Once again Mrs. Vivian Giles, pianist, and Miss Edna Stanbrough, on the Hammond organ, gave us a truly won derful concert for our Sun day vesper service. It is re markable how beautifully the organ and piano blend when played together by these in spired and proficient artists. It is said these instruments are considered the most per fect blend in tonal quality. Mrs. Giles' playing, often de scribed as ethereal, reflected, this quality in her piano solo, "The Last Hope", Gottschalk; and "Largo", Handel, played by Miss Stanbrough as an organ solo, continued the quality of religious reverence. There was a fervor about the religious numbers which was truly spiritual. Our members continue to express apprecia tion and enjoyment. Something SPECIAL TV, in Folk Music!
