Economical Meals

DIVISION OF NUTRITION Department of Health and Welfare

What will I have for supper? This is the cry of housewives every- where from East Point to Tignish. Because many of us do not plan in time for supper we often sit down to a meal of starches and sweets.

It is very important to have nourishing food for supper-a dish including fish. meat. cheese. eggs. or dried peas or beans, These foods contain proteins which are used by our body every day, and are 3550. lutcly necessary for health. These proteins are more efficient if eaten at. every meal.

Cheese is one of our best protein foods. It is economical, is easily kept, can add nourishment and flavor to many other foods. and not only contains protein but also calcium for our bones and teeth, and au the vitamins found in milk.

The following contain equal amounts of protein:

2 ounces (2.1 inch cubes) of cheddar cheese costs '1 cents.

21.5 ounces (3. small serving) of round steak. costs 14 cents.

Cheese can be used often in place of meat. When buying it in wedges that have been previousy wrapped and priced. ask the clerk to weigh them for you so that you can check the price per pound. It may be that you are not getting your money's worth. Our own Island cheese is the most economical to buy.

Form the habit of using cheese often. Add it to your cream soups -it is especially delicious with tomato and potato. Combine it with potato scallop, fish scallop and any starchy food such as rice. macaroni, and spaghetti. Serve a cheese sauce with vegetables and on toast or crackers. Serve cheese with fruit or vegetable salad. Make cheesersouf- Iles, scallops. omelets and rareblt. Give your children cheese sand- wiches eithcr plain or grilled. A delicious filling can be made by add- ing chopped pickle, nuts or seasonings.

In all these ways cheese will add protein to a meal that otherwise mill” be lacking in it. Write to the Department of Agriculture, Ottawa, Ior a free copy of "Cheese Dishes".

Be wise, economize with cheese!

. NBEDLES8 WOBIY OI PARENTS

As a teenager. I can remember youngsters going into hospital Saturday mornings to have their tonsils removed. many of them going home in 24 to 48 hours. That was in the days when tonsils were removed by a snare and often much of the stump of the tonsil was left in the thrust. in many cases there was no need for re- moval of tonsils as they were only slightly enlarged. were not intect- ed and were not interfering with breathing or hearing.

Just as large tonsils of them- selves do not need to be removed as they will disappear about the age of puberty, so there are other conditions present in children which worry parents. who, instead of consulting their family physic- ian. may go directly to specialists for their information. When they do consult their physician directly and he advises that there is no need for treatment. they may, in- sist upon having the specialist called in consultation anyway.

r In The British Medical Journal, Dr. Israel Gordon. llford. England states. "Many parents suffer need- less anxiety and spend money un- necessarily on the treatment of innocuous and minor imperfections in,c-hlldren. The child who feels deli and functions well is well. minor or small differences from normal notwithstanding."

some conditions stand out in importance either by reason oi. the effort needlessly expended for their correction or by the effect that such treatment has on the later career of the individual.

Enlarged tonsils: Unless the tonsils are so large as to cause ob- struction or. as stated above. are infected. there is no need for their removal.

Orthopedic defects: the legs of small children are not straight. In the first two years of life, a bow- legged phase exists with outward curve and inward twist of the lower end of the leg. This condi- tion is most pronounced at four and one-half and disappears at the age of six.

innocuous (harmless) heart mur- murs. Most systolic (occurring with the first beat of the heart) mur- murs are harmless and undue at- teniion leads to neurosis.

Constipation of breast-fed bab- ies: Infrequent stools are entirely normal for breast-fed infants. In the third. fourth and mm months

DOROTHY DlX'S COLUMN-

Wrong. Choice ,

Girl Picks Sweeflteerf Of Many Faults And Failing:

DEAR. MISS DIX: They say that love is blind, and I believe it more now than ever before. My daughter has been going steady with a bachelor 40 years old for the past two years (she's 22) and claims she is going to marry him. I think he is wrong for her for several reasons. mainly because he suffers from a chronic dread disease that I call "tightwadltls." They both work for the same firm and have the same day off. Instead of taking her out on this day, he spends it by himself. going to shows alone, then comes over here for a good hot dinner and a free evening of icic- vislon. At ten o'clock he goes home because he needs his rest. He's been out all day enjoying him- self whlle she stayed home and moped. I think the reason he has never married is that he is a selfish, stingy. self-centered person. He's never given her n gift on her birthday or at Christmas since she has known him. What she can see in him is beyond, me!

ANSWER: A worse matrimonial bet I couldn't even imagine! Even chronic tlghtwads try. usually, to conceal the worst aspects of their falling from a possible future bride, particularly if the girl has a family with money. or a good job. This apology for ii man doesnt even have that decency. Does your daughter enjoy the prospl-ct cf slaving for the rest of her life in order to feed a bank account? Cer- tain it. is that she'll never get a cent for clothes, amusement, or (my personnl expenses from this otharlo. and she'll be dnrn lucky to :91 enough to buy the bare neces ties of life!

Muriel Nlnen

CONSIDER AGE DIFFERENCE

Furthermore. except in rare and exceptional cases. an eighteen-. year age difference is too much. '

However, your daughter is 22. is legally of age and presumably old enough to know her own mind-if she has one. If she determines to marry her bachelor. you can't stop her. Your rule from that point on is to step aside and be ready to help her when she wakes up. Dent he too eager to render financial assistance. That's exactly what Tight- wad expects. Knowing you wouldn't let your child want for anythintl if you could help it, he'll-be very willing to accept any aid youvextvnd his wife. Even if you do have to see her suffer for.a while, its Mm she wants. apparently. and only through bvring the consequences nl a very foolish marriage will she come to her senses.

DEAR MISS DIX: We have two children. girls 4 and 6. Wu would very much like a larger family. but my husband recently dis- covered that he is diabetic. Our doctor says there is a large chant!

that the next baby would inherit a tendency to the disease. MRS. BRENDA ll.

ANSWER: In 'a matter as Important as this, I advise, lllll irry best advice obtainable-in this case the opinion of a specialist in IQ"; betcs. This is one of the diseases on which tremendous research I St been done with a great deal of success. Under the care of n spehrl-:1-Mi I have known diabetic others to we essfully bear children. HIM- course whether these yo sisters have a tendency to inherit them 4” ease is something that only time can tell. Do get. .in touch N - expert in the field and put. your confidence in him.
