HINCHCUFiF:^ Sealed and ^Deliveredi (being, iirC^' duly ftampedj in the prefence of James Debeaune Witneff: Nicholas Thorguard' 'â- . John MdCliokHn Hello, Homemakers! What kind of breakfast should you have? A sub- stantial breakfast or none at all. Thife is not a question to be answered by "now everybody has ibeen fed and i» off for the day, guess I shoukl go shopping right aiway." Nor is the answer to be found in "I must reduce." It has bjen proven that good health is maintained by a substantial meal at the be^rining of the day. And this is true every day of the year, sium- mer or winter. Breakfast should account for at least one-fourth of the protein and one-fourth of the vita- mins and njinerals required daily. Some people have developed the habit of omitting breakfast in an ef- fort to lose weight, but that is th« wrong way to reduce. Their energy would ibe maintained at a more even keel \l they divided the food they ea'. among three meals a day rather than two. Planning a well-balanced diet with three meals a day is not a diffi- cult ta'sk if a few simple principles are followed- But with only tw-j meals there is a danger of omitting some of the important foods which furnish the much-needed vitamins, minerals and proteins. Breakfast can be planned from five items, namely, fruit, an egg, cereal or toafet, butter or jam and beverage, which means milk for children. Dur- ing conservation of wheat products, serve either cereal or toast, but not both. Even this economical meal will be well-balanced and hearty. In many ways your body is like the engine in your car. It takes fuel in the form of food and transformb it into energy, the energy wtih which you accomplish your day's work. It is just as reasonable to expect your ear o start on an empty tank as to suppose your body can furnish en- ergy for the morning's activities -without proper food. A good â- ijreakfast can work wond- ers in the way you feel- Try it and »ee how much it adds to your con- i<;ntment and the ease with which you perform your forenoon tasks. For a happy, he.ilthy 'start on the (lay's activities, serve breakfasts like these: (1) Half grapefruit or orange Bran flakes with milk French toast Milk or hot beverage (2) Prunes or orange juice Poached egg on toast I.Iuffin and jam Cocoa or milk (3) Baked apple Oatmeal porridge and raisins Milk or coffee • • • Residence lor Sale 7-rooni ' rick hoxwe ox .Collint- wood St., Fleshsiton, niodem Mt* ohen, bard and 8«^ water inaid*, double lot, douMe gmrage. f iBO O with $1600 cash.

K. says: Why do the new soap substitutes lose their suds ac- tion quickly and make the water look so dirty ? .Answer: The suds of the washing compound disappear as the materials dissolve in the watcn The compounds do not hide the dirt in the solution as the soap-suds do. Mrs. J. M. says: What is meant hy the inclusion of a detergent in the washing compound? Answer: It should mean that more borax or washing soda has been add- ed to dissolve grease and oil. A smaU quantity of a detergent on materials goes a long way â€" so you should not use it as lavishly as soap. Mrs. J. T. asks: How can you teU if a now washing compound contains an alkiline detei-gent? Is it true that you should not wash wool and nylon in such a compound? .Answer: You can recognize it by the slippery feel it gives to the water solutioi\ and by the failure to make slanding suds. â-  Alkaline products .tend to destroy anim&l fibres so it is not wise to w;as^ good wools and •pastel-colored dittHeg in this solution. â-  Mrs. T. M. a6&S!- Will crickets in our clothes closet eventually die .without doing a^' hai-m? Answerj A cricket's chirp indoors is a signal to start taking action be- cause they- eat holes in clothes. Pro- vide other food 9uch as a teasipoon of oatmcial or piece of apple on which you h-av'e sprinkled DDT powder.
