"Many are called but few are chosen." These words come to mind again and again, •when women and war work are considered. The road to France beckons invitingly, insist- entiy, and multitudes would answer j the self-given invitation. But the impulse to "do something" is not en- ough. It ia not even important un- less it is the crowning glory of u course of honest, strenuous, lengthy training. The most glorious out- come of this war, for women, is the fact that it has eliminated completely the superficial woman. She may re- main superficial but she cannot re- main influential and prominent. It is amazing, when one pauses long en- ought to consider tho fact, how com- pletely the women agitators and pro- pagandists of five years ago have disappeared. Their calling is done and they have withdrawn from the feeble limelight of those days exact- ly as the tiny summer gnats disap- pear on the first cold day. : To-day the women who are doing things that count are women who be-! gan to do things thoroughly at the very commencement of their career. They never called it "career," l)y the way, never named it in fact, except to themselves, and then this process of self-discipline and self-improve- 1 meiit was, more often than not, eim- i ply called "making a living" or "do- ing the very best I can." The world was full of just such women whose: one passion was to do the work in hand in the very best way it could be i done. Advancement, pecuniary gain, material benefit were not even sec- \ ondary. The work was the thing! No training was too severe if only ex- cellence crowiied the work. These women were truly the wise virgins, more concerned to keep their lamps filled and the wicks in perfect' working order than about the accom- plishments that fill leisure hours. ' Their call has come at last am! their lumps are needed â€" every one of them. There is not a woman in the world to-day who has improved her talents from the time slie Iwgan to view life seriously (in girlhood days) but has a must important mission to per- form. The world is waiting for her .work. There is no such thing as ; "blossoming unseen" at this ago ofi the world, if one's training has accom-^ plishcd all that it should. The! "."hclf" on which women h.ive resign- 1 cdly laid themselves for years has: been taken down and even the grand-! mothers are, to-day, coming in fori honorable mention as being reapon- silile for the "soldier lads" in France. ] Kvery woman who was prepared isi doing a real part in the world's work anil those who preferred veneer and superficiality to genuine worth ofi character are being refused admit- ' lance, every day, into coveted fields of endeavor. Prepare fur work and llie task will find the v.-orker! | > - I Diet For Children. j The essential diet for the children is an abundance of simple, easily digested foods, carefully prepared and of suflTicient variety to form a balanc-j «<l diet. Food must supply the child with material for bodily growth and with energy for the constant and abundant activity. For this reason it is im- ' portaiit to have exact knowledge of food value; they should be constantly kept in mind. i The building foods are milk, eggs,' lish, legumes and meats; of this last: item very small portions shouhl be' given. It is best to replace the meat portion of the diet with poultry dur-! ing the summer. i The fuel food;s are milk, butter, I starchy vegolables. Minera} salts arc necessary for a ))roper balance; Ihcy are quickly available ii\ fresh fruits, green vegetables and milk. Together with these foods there should be plenty of wye drinking wa-! ter, so that the food may be properly digested and the waste eliminated. I Milk should be used at every meal. Many mothers think of milk ' as only a beverage. Frequently they feel that they can cut down on this product with the idea of lowering the I cost of foods. This is a great mis- ! take. The mother must fully under- ! stand that few if any foods can re- I place milk in the diet of children under twelve years of age. ' Every child should have at least one quart of milk in addition to other foods, daily, besides plenty of cooked green vegetables, cerctds and stewed fruits. Children need for growth, the vitamines that are found in the fresh creamery butter,' eg|?s, milk and green leafy vegetables. When mak- ing up the menu, the^c ideas should tic kept vividly in mind. The Knglish idea of feeding chil- dren under twelve years of age apart from the family dinner table, is fol- lowed by many parents. This practice gives the moth^- a chance to plan and provide foor that will be suitable and : at the same time digestible for the lit- tle folks. Then again this meal, is ! arranged an hour earlier than the re- ' gular family meal, the mother may dt down in comfort, knowing that the children have eaten a meal that will supply them with material for growth and energy. A Few .Suggestive Menus. Breakfasts Orange Juice t^ornmush and Milk Toasted Barley Bread and Butter Milk Food Control Corner Canadians on Their Honor. In some quarters it has b«en suk- gested that Canadians be put on ra« tifins and nof on their honor regard- ing f<K>d. Do householders in Canada seek to evade the food regftflations? Are the merchants of Canada conniving at the evasion of the food regulations? Let US see about that. The main objective of the Canada Food Board is to supply Great Britain and the Allies with vital foods. With this in view food regulations are made, which, if respected by the peo- ple of Canada, will enable Canada to keep faith with the Allies on food. Do the people of Canada want to keep faith with the Allies on food? They do. Are the people of Canada keeping faith with the Allies on food ? They are. To take any other position is to sug- gest that the people of Canada would I rather keep their pre-war food habits I than keep faith with the Allies on j food . No true Canadian is breaking ] the regulations of the Canada Food ' Board for he knows those • regulations : are made in order that Great Britain; and the Allies and the Canadian Army j at the front may be properly fed. I Who of US will eat what should be j conserved for the Canadian Army at} the front? | The hearts of the people of! Canada are sound and in this war to a finish. Foo<l is a first class munition of war and Canadians so view it. It will be time enough to go in for ra-| tions in Canada when the people of : Canada refuse to conform to national ' efforts to conserve food for Great i Britain and the Allie.i, and the Cana-| dian .Army at the front. When that: time come.? a policeman, not a food controller, will be needed. i f ^a^nMijek BREAD MIXEPn lunnMAO M s Muwm > diiiMiii MOO* bcca^ 1 •fc, wiihoul tTo<i>|«.

During this period he must not purchase or take delivery of any! food commodities or manufacture, sell { or deal in bread or any product of ^ wheat or other flour. The War Trade Board of Washing- ton advised the Canada Food Board thftt application had been made for an import license by a resident of Monticelle, Maine, to import 200 pounds of sugar consigned by E. L. Field of Bloomfield, N.B., who oper- ates a general store. The Canada Food Board immediately cancelled Mr. Field's license for violation of the food laws. Fifty bags of sugar, twenty bags of bre^wn sugar and twenty-five sacks of flour have been .seizej^ in the cellar of the Exchange Restaurant, Winni- peg. Three establishments in Edmonton, Alberta, dealing in candy, fruit, etc., have been closed by order of the Can- ada Food Board for disregarding license regulations. The places penalized are: Mike Evanoff, 10120, 101st St.; E. Gibson, 101171, 101st St.; and Jane Detroit, 10320, 101st St. They must remain clo.sed until licenses are granted by the Food Board. It is the intention of the Board to take similar action in the case of othei dealers who have not complied with the licensing rules. For selling flour to American citi- zens for export and for selling th« same without substitutes in the pro- portion called for by the regulations the Canada Food Board has suspend- ed the license of James Rideout, St. Croix, N.B., and has ordered him not to buy, sell, or deal either directly or indirectly in any food commodity. Stewed Chicken Boiled Potato Beans Lettuce Apple .Sauce Milk Suppers Oatmeal and Stewed Prunes Toasted Barley Bread and Butter Finely Shredded Pineapple Milk Cream Toast, using Cornbread Kice Pudding with Stewed Fruits -Milk Omelet Boiled Potatoes .\pple Sauce Milk Many children who suffer from mal- nutrition arc cross and irritable or dull; sometimes they are lacking in- alerlness. Where there is any re- dtsftUm of the vitality there is al- ways n possibility of suceplibility to disease. This Istck of the proper foods is founil not only in homes of the poor but in homes where there is an abundance. The knowledge of the right iiuantity and quality of food to maintain the proper standards of growth and de- velopment is vitally important factor in child life. I would like to make a plea to the mothers not to give their children pennies for cheap candies, or worse yet, to allow them to buy the ice-cream cones of the street mer- chant. Many a mother would fain! if she lould see the surroundings in which these so-called delicacies are manu- factured. Cheap candies contain in- gredients that may jirove harmful and thus pave the way for moi-e serious intestinal disturbances and perhaps, who knows, a serious illness. Be firm and do not permit the children to have these Que.stionable products. Rather give them fresh fruits, home- made cookies and then know that your child will perhaps, escape much suf- ferings. H.
