time.
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

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 "

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.
