some little time ago there was an article by s health expert to the effect that the potato if pre- PI-rod properly. that is baked snd eeton skin and all. is one of our meet important health foods. Its alkaline content is supposed to be 9075' important in keeping s prop- et balance with the acid-produc- lug foods which are said to be the villains which bring on the symp- toms of old age. '

If there" is any virtue in this article at all. it seems to us that it should be exploited to the full by Islanders. The potato is our big food ..roduct. and anything that win boost its popularity should be welcome to our farmers here. We islanders are a. bit slow to take advantage of those things. sometimes foods with very doubt-, ful value are ballyhooed to the skies and the promoters behind all the shouting make fortunes. With such a fine, respectable member of the culinary family as the po- tato to do some raving about, we'd be on pretty safe ground.

Because we had an unusually high number of car fatalities in Prince Edward Island during the last year,,our leaders are begin- ning to consider ways and means of improving the regulations which have to do with highway safety. A fine suggestion came out of our Legislature recently to the effect that we should start giving our children more instruction in this vital subject. If a concerted effort were made to make all our chil- dren safety conscious. both from the standpoint of pedestrians and car-drivers, it would not be many years before such a program would really begin to bear fruit. Thanks to our Junior Red Cross organiza- tion. we. through a swimming and water-safety program, are making our children "water-proof", Isn't it about time we started a pro- gram to make them "slaughter- procf" also?
