Yet none had played a nobler part when the call came for assistance. "Her loyalty and devotion to the Throne was a remarkable thing." In South Africa the world has the spec- tacle of a former enemy who bad not only for- gotten the once bitter feud, but “the relations with South Africa are happier than at any time in the past.” They were not British sol- diers, but their own brothers and cousins, who put dow-n the attempt in i914 by a section of Dutclibred South Africans to achieve indepen- dence. Even the Irish Free State, he consider- ed, would in time come in on the same terms as other dominions as an enthusiastic partner oi the Empire 0n the basis of free association.

A few years ago 1t seemed that ft would be impossible to flght American competition in Empire countries, and lt was con- sidered the best thing to try to compromise with American man- ufacturers.

MAN WAS DIEANT TO MIXED DIET

EAT A

One of the interesting exhibits a: the Chicago Century of Progress f was that which showed the length l cf the intestines 1n a sheep, n. man, l and a dog. 1n the case cf the sheep l the intestines were 24 times the i length of 1w body. in a. dog they

were 4 l~2 times the length of lta body. and in mun 9 1-2 times the lctigtli cf lii.s body isitting.)

Now why does an animal like the sheep have to have such a lcng intestine in proportion to m height?

A eheep lives on grass and herbs, a bulky fcod with low heat or fuel value and therefore must est a great am: unt of grm to get enough nourishment for the needs of its body. 'I'hi.s means that, 1t must

have a long intestine s0 that this low fcod value grass will not pass out of its intestine until the 1n- zctine has absorbed all its food value frcm it. If the intestine were “iiort the grass would pass through 1n tco short atinte to give the lslieepls body all the nourishment r. it.

In the ease of the dog however the intestine ls short because the dog rats meat-a concentrated feed. The meat ls put into such .(‘O!'lfl1'.lOl'1 by the stomach (partly

digested) that when 1t reaches

the intestine the intestine quickly air rbs this rlcb concentrated i c y digested food Into the blood.

Tltilc is thus in the dog no need

10:‘ a long intestine t0 absorb the . food.

i What about man? ,

p Research workers point. out that

in proportion to the length 01m;

bzcly‘ (sitting), the intestine ls about one-third the length o1 that

of the sheep and about twice u

long as that of the dog. This means

ilten that man (in proportion to his height» should not eat as much meat as the clog, or eat. as much

‘Jr-ass ivecetables and frulti as the sheep.

In other words man was meant- to live on lhe mixed diet-meat, geest. fish. cereals, vegetables and lflll , .

_A.s meat 1s used to fepglf won t" ue caused by work or exercise. office workers need only about half as much meat. as those engaged ln hard physical work, or t-wo 1n- dulge in vigorous exercise.
