For Tomorrow

JUDGINO by the strange com- bination of the stellar aspects. Almost anything could happen to confuse, disrupt, provoke and chal- lenge. Subtle as well as open and tangible situations come up for profound, rational and calm decis- lon. In a welter of conflicts. con- tradictions and novel situations, it Is notable that the mentality is able calmly to view the compuc. ations, to fathom shrewdly under- Ilying factors, and carefully to analyse and come to wise conclus- :ions. This sagacity and clear vls. Lon could prevent disaster.

For the Birthday

Those whose birthday it is may find themselves immersed in a web of strange. peculiar and c!ial- llenging complications, in which basic foundations of living seem no call for some miraculous ra- rtioiialization. From all angles TIJHDTE seem to arise tangles, in. vvolvements and complications, in which life's social. romantic, spir- ltual and material equations are up for shrewd. subtle as well as dorthright management. depend- ent on sagaclous decisions. Such crisis could be clarified by the vivid. sound and far-seeing state of mind. but with cool brakes on wayward emotions.

A child born on this day may be expected to have a, vital and Vivid life. with many complexities and adventures. Its sane mental- Ity may regulate and illumine.

NUTRITION F03 OLDEE PERSONS

Many men and women. as they grow older, feel that meat is not good for them. that as they do not work hard physically, there is lit- tle need for meat and other pro- teins-eggs, fowl and fish. special- ists in foods and nutrition remind us that proteins are needed from infancy to old age.

In The Canadian Journal of Public Health, Toronto, Dr. E. W. Mcldenry states that the health of older persons is becoming of in- creasing concern as the percentage of these persons increases in the population, "Protein is one type of food constituent that older per- sons frequently neglect; meat, cheese and milk are unlikely to be eaten in adequate amounts. This neglect is due to is mistaken not- ion that. meat is harmful for old- er persons. Little or no cheese is eaten because of the old wives' tale that cheese is lndlgestible and oonstipating. Little milk is taken because these persons grew up in an age when the value of milk was not appreciated."

While it is generally known that meat is needed for growth, it is not generally realized that the wear and tear on body tissues which must be replaced makes it necessary that meat or other pro- tein be eaten every day if the strength of the body tissues is to be maintained.

Dr. Mcl-ienry also points out that many older persons. in addi- tion to eating an insufficient amount. of the protein foods, also neglect to eat enough of the foods containing calcium (lime) -- milk. cheese. and leafy vegetables, egg yolk, and also enough of the foods

containing iron A ms-nt (liver) whole grains. leafy vegetables andl egg yolk.

Almost daily we can see me re- sults in older persons who do not eat enough calcium. If the amount of calcium in the blood is low, there is frequent weakening and breaking of the bones, which take a long time to knit.

Most vitamins are needed as much in age as in youth.

In her bodk "Nutrition and Phy- sical Fitness," Dr. Jean Bogart also suggests that meat be eaten by older persons, being chopped fine if necessary.

In general, the diet best adapt- ed to the alimentary (stomach and intestines) tract of the aged closely resembles that recommend- ed for children-namely milk and eggs, thoroughly cooked cereals, stale bread, toast or crackers, fruits and vegetables (cooked or strained if necessary). soups. the simple desserts (custards. blanc mange, cereal puddings) with mild stimulants such as tea. coffee and meat brotihs which are not per- missible for young children,

Remember. then. as we grow older, we still need protein-merit, eggs, flsh, cooked cereals.

Queen's "llresser" ls Fashion Expert

IDNDOIN, Jan. 2-(GP)-When the Queen accompanies the King on his recupcrative cruise on H. M. S. Vanguard. planned for early 1952. one of the party will be white-haired. soft-voiced Cells. Willox. a Scotswoman who has been personal "dresser" to the Queen for more than 11 years.

Miss Willox knows the Queen's taste in clothes perfectly, and many times coutui-iers will telephone to ask her advice on whether to show the Queen a new material or de- sigii. If Miss Willox says "No." that ends it.

She is an expert on fashion. past and present. and few can challenge licr word on the many orders that the Queen is entitled to wear. Her knowledge of first-class jewels is also i nressivc. The Queen's priv- ate co lection contains gifts from different parts of the world, and the crown jewels - worn on such cccaslons as the coronation - in- clude the Koh-I-Noor diamond and the Star of Africa.

Back To Old "New Look"

LONDON. Jan. 3 - (CPt - A searching good look at the style and design Off 1931 shows a not-

nhle change in the fashion sil- houette. Twelve months ago. women

greeted the year with skirts 15 inches from the ground and so tight you could hardly hobbit-. Sleeves were narrovr with soft shoulderline, collars small and belts wide. -

Now. advance sprint: styles show a definite return to the wide skirts of the old "new look". that shock- ed the post-war fashion conscious. skirts have dropped two inches waists are tighter. belts nari-owl collars largeand imposing - and the latest thing in sleeves is wide, mg.-lan shouldered. with deep high- w:iv:nan cuffs.

In fact we're going back once more - back to the days of pad- ded bins and graceful swinging skirts, back to rustllmz underskli-ts. back to shorter hairstyles. small tight-fitting hats and when heels.

The latest thing in coats is the old Prlncess.line with tiny waist wide skirt, big collar and cuffs. The old tent swagger is back in all its glory with huge sleeves. big collars and swinging fullness.

As the months of the year roll- ed by, waists become smaller and the latest summer dress styles have deep cummei-blinds emphasiz- ing the fullness of the flaring skirt.

There are lots of short evening dresses. seven inches from the ground. in spring colors of warm gold and summer sky blues. Newest materials look like softly-WW9" straw, but strapless tops are 38 dead as last year's bench wear.

Morning Smile M Two of I Kind

A man was playing golf recently on a course in Southern California and he was having a hard time of it. He was new to the nine and at the end of the first nine holes his score was already up over one hundred. As he trudged weacily to the tenth tee. he yelled for his lagging caddy to hurry up with the golf bag, After slicing his bail badly be had to yell again for the caddy to hurry with the clubs. As the small boy limped up to him the golfer” exploded, his irritation with his score descending on the caddy like a cloud. I "You must be the worst caddy in the world." he eiciaimed. "Hardly." meet-ed the tired boy. "That would be too -much of I coincidence!”
