.Timelx Notes On Nutrition

I: Marjorie G. Hill VEGETABLES

For the past few weeks we have been diacussing the various food group: which make up Canada's Food Rules. Already we have talked about the Rules in general. as well as Group 1 - Milk; and Group 2 - Fruits. Today let us consider what Group 3 - Vege- tables have to contribute to our daily fare. Canada's Food Rule concerning vegetables states that: one serving of potatoes and two servings of other vegetables are recommended for everyone each day. Now, we can safely guess that practically each one of us eats one serving of potatoes every day - but how many of us eat two servings of other vegetables? If you do not -- than -- why? Ask

yourselves these questions.

Why not change the clearly lov- 1 ed phrase, ”The Waring of that Green" to ”The Eating of the; Greens" and see what happcnsili Vegetables not only add nuiritivr-i value to our meals. but also color, taste. texture. and pleas.ng aromas. They not only make pcr- fcct side partners for meat and potatoes. but ihcy make an at::ac- tive salad or vegetable plate also.

Now that the time is on hand for planting our gardens. we viant to leave all the space we can for vegetables - the green ones, the yellow ones. and the rcd ones.

The nutritional bciioiit and pleasure you got out of eating jegetables depends on how you prepare and cook them.

Here are a few general facts on good vegetable preparation:

1. Prepare all vegetables care- fully. quickly and as short a time as possible before cooking.

2. Do not prepare more vege- table: than may be eaten at one meal. as they lose their food value on standing or reheating.

3. Vegetables cooked in small pieces in uniform size cook quick- ly and in the same length of time

4..Do not peel new vegetables.

"reill us about that Queen!" granddaughter begged, when in the delight of this afternoon we sat on the old door-step. neigh- bouring her and Jamie who loung- ed in the new grass close by - she to "wonder why on earth they won't let me run on my bare feet this warm day" and Jamie pleased with the turn of events that had granted him this holi- day. She much enjoys a spun tale and Jamie too is always an attentive listener. But whet could we tell them. or indeed Jeanie? too, who came then from her house across the lane with the. babe in her arms. who had known of Victoria only through the cold pages of history? However we rec unted for them. not only the fac that in spite of the troubled times in which she reigned - the longest of any monarch in his- tory, Britain grew and prospered. her navy making her Mistress of the Seas and her territory ex-l tending until it was said proudlyt that "the sun never sets on he: domirtions."

But we told as well of the grave

so vast a people repeated her Oath of Office in "clear bell-like toncs" and "God helping me" bravely took up the task . . . And we won- dered what the lassies of our ac- quaintance of a like age would have done with the undertaking. they who had been angling along the stream or out in the white boat in the deep waters of the ond. whose laughter had floated up to us at the house so gay and care- free. And we recalled for them as clearly as though it had been only yesterday, the joy of the na- tion who in the turn of the years celebrated with her, in an expres- sion of loyalty and love that had never before been equalled. her Diamond Jubilee. or the close of

the sixtieth year of her reign. O O C

And I woman's voice that had remained in mind all the years of, the interval since then comment-j ed: "Ay. there was joy on our part, that she. so wise and good is spar- . ed to us yet, but it's lonely she herself would be riding there in the Gold Coach in the procession alone with her memories. She would be thinking of the Prince Consort, though it's long years since he died. For it's the great Queen she is, but a loving wife too. and good mother to her bairns. And isnlt she only a woman like the rest of us - God love her! Nine of her own she's reared. And wasn't it good that the Prince of Wales was spared to her - and us, and he so sick that time - a miracle he ever got better and him so low! And its she that would be thinking of the Princess Alice. though the pipers would be pipin' and the bands playing - and mil- lions of people lining the way to watch the procession. And she'd be grievin' for her. Ay, when you bear children and love them as she does nothing can take them from mind”

In words of our own we told them this. "And what happened to t-he Princess?" Jamie inquired. "Alice Maud Mary was her name. Her children were sick with diph- theria and she kissed one . . . caught the disease and died. The. kiss of death' they called it ever!

TIIE EMOTIONS AND ORGANIC DISEASE

Long before World war II. it was known how greatly digestion was affected by the emotions. stomach ulcer was a. common all- ment. Even before our men and women went overseas. while they were still in our home camps. dig- estive ailments. mostly stcmach and duodenal ulcer, were the most ccmmon cases treated. This was because of separation from famil- ies, new surroundings, food changes and other unusual conditions. These changes in their everyday lives upset their emotions. which in turn so changed the regularity and processes in the body that

"actual" changes occurred in the organs themsclvcs.

We all know how fright. fear, rage affect cur heart. breathing.'. skin, and urinary bladder. Just as they affect these organs they af- fect practically all the other organs to some extent. Further, as pointed out years ago by research workers. after the emotions have caused "functional" changes for a considerable time, these same emo- tions can cause organic or true disease in an organ.

In "General Practice Clinics," Dr. William C. Menninger, Topeka. Kansas. states that physicians ate growing more aware of the emo- tloriial factor in all types of illness. Emotions cause certain types of organic changes in the tissue as shown by peptic ulcer. The fact that medicine develops operations to overcome the effect of the emo- tions (cause by nerves) such as cutting the vagus nerve in peptic ulcer, cutting the nerve in treat- ment of high blood pressure and also cutting nerves whkh supply parts of the brain which control the Emotions of decip grief and de-

fect of the emotions. It can thus be seen that. diseases can be start- ed by the emotions, and diseases already started can be aggravated and cause complications.

Finally. Dr. Mennlnger states. the emotions are is signmcam fen. ture in the restoration to normal (rehabilitation) of evcry prolong- ed illness and may become the chief factor in preventing or de- laying compltte recovery where there are resulting handicaps from an illness. whether these handi- caps are heart disease or the loss of a limb. For this reason the phy- slclari must always keep in mind the effect of the emotions and try to build up the patients morale. by pointing out that it is his emo- tions, not heart disease. loss of limb. or other ailment. that is de- laying recovery.

R loonoiiii DIX SAYS .-

E Father's Problem

Should He Give Money To Spenclfhrifl Child?

DEAR MISS DIX: I 'have two fine daughters. One is easv- never thinks of saving for the future, has ear-ned.good monl:-v mg spent it or fast as she made it. She married a man of the sanic iitt. positlon and they have less now than when they got married. his other is very industrious. She has earned lots of money. but site 1...; always saved a portion of it. She married a man who is nlso llll'illv and they are getting along fine, Now I ii.-ivi-u'1',. great deal of money to give my children. but I t'0llld put either one on Easy Street along with what. liiry make themselves. What would you advise?

going,

DAD

ANSWER: I don't think that a father should play favorites with his children and give one more than 1;. does the others. Your two daughters have equal rlaimg upon you. and you should divide what you have to give equally he. tween them. if you do not. the daughter whom you discrinizmu against will naturally feel that you lack affection for her and ban treatrd her unjustly. Also she will be alienated from her sister lllliil'. she will always suspect of having used unfair means to get lllt' iimn share of your estate.

WILL BUN THROUGH HER Fl'NGEBsl

It is easy to understand that you feel some hesitation about giving money to your thriftless daughter because you know it will run through her fingers. I: I! a familiar problem that all of us llflte en. countered who have tried to help people. Those who most m-rd our help seem impossible to help. Nothing we ever give lhem does their any real good because they waste it and throw it away, whereas when we give to those who can help themselves our assistance counts be- cause we boost them up the ladder faster than they could ciimh alone.

However. that refers to outside people. Not our own, and es- pecially not our own children. They have a right to our help. iliit I think that when parents give to their children they should take their temperaments into consideration.

So I advise you to divide your money equally between your daugh- ters and to put what you have to give the spendthrift into some sort of a trust fund so that she cannot touch the principal and will nnly get the interest. In that way you will save her from the want that the extravagant always come to, sooner or later.

DEAR DOROTHY DIX: I hpve a friend who during the entire five years of her married life has supported an able-bodied hiisbazirl who has never done a hand's turn of work. She ltas turned over to him every cent of her salary except lunch money and carfare. out of which she buys small necessities. She doesn't even buy clothes. as her relatives keep her supplied. The husband never gives her a word of praise. instead. he tells her how lucky she is to have him. of how many girls he could have if he were not married and that she is a ball and chain around his feet. Once in a while she bursts out In protest. but only to beg his forgiveness for doing so when she sees that he is liable to break every piece of furniture in the house as It result of his nasty temper. This woman is only 22. What do you think

of a case like this? DISGUSTED

ANSWER: My first thought is one of contemptuous pity for a woman who is feeble-minded enough to waste her life slaving for n my loafer. who does not even throw her a kind word as one might pitch a bone to a hungry dog. My second thought is a truer one. and that is that my pity is wasted. for she is having the time of her life. She is doing exactly what she wants to do and enjoys doing it. or else she wouldn't do it.
