ID. ; ' VITAMINS FOR THE ILDEILY We do not hear or read as much about vitamins lodey as we did up lo A year ago. It would seem thet both pstlents and. physicinns are not as interested is they were. This is unfortunate because vita- mins and also minerals-fron. phosphorus, calcium - are needed daily to maintain health and fit- ness.- Now that we have more old peo- ple in our midst than any other one group. physicians. and especially geriatrlclans whose specialty is the treatment of elderly people. are finding that not enough of certain vitamins are being eaten to main- tain health. In The Journal of the American Medical Association in the Ques- tion and Answer department. it. is slated: ”Medical science is becom- ing more and more concerned with diseases and disorders in relation to the age groups. industrial groups and population groups affected. rather than with specific diseases. More recently the science of ger- ontology (the treatment of the el- derly) has come to the fore as one of the most important new fields of investigation from is medical. sociological and econclmic point of view," l.'ni'ortunat.ely many of us feel that as people become older they must expect changes in their phy- sical. mental and emotional make- up and must simply learn to live with these changes and disorders. As a matter or fact, experimental studies by niitrilion experts seem to point to the fact that an ade- quate intake cf vitamins is nec- essary to health at all ages and ' will delay Ihcse changes and dis-pg E 01' orders we blame on old age. .

Your impulses are naturally generous. but us families spread from one generation to the other. the hur- den can he terrific. Of course everyone, especially children, likes to be remembered on the important occasions of life. but an appropriate greeting card can carry your thoughtfulness no well as ll gift. Our greeting card companies do such a wonderful job of printing handsome. cheery cards that you need feel no apology sending them. If your means permit, continue to remember your godchlldrcn with gifts, at lcnst until they reach teen-nge, but the pre- senls need not be costly or elaborate. very simple things, and to give a small gift that has been chosen with the child's tastes in mind is a better remembrance than n gift 0 money you cannot afford. - Youngsters tire pleased with PARENTS WILL UNDERSTAND Don'l he-embarrassed to let the parents of these children, as well the other members of your family. know that your financial con- ion will not permit numerous or expensive gifts.
