C. iState College. That is the additional cost of enough “enriched” flour to feed a person for a year, she explained. The word “enriched,” as used on sacks of flour and on loaves of bread, is not a commercial advertising slo gan, Miss Thomas explained. It is a term proposed by the Federal Drug and Food Administration to designate flour and bread to which have been restored, synthetically, the most needed nutrients of whole wheat. Enriched bread, and flour is endorsed by the highest Government authori ties. It costs 5 cents, or less, per 24- pound sack to enrich flour, Miss roc 7% AR* A A Friendly Service For All Your Banking Needs We Are Here and Ready To HeTp You With Your Financing...

C. eennn maximum insurance rcnnn ■ The Bank of Edenton | “SAFETY FOR SAVINGS SINCE 1894” | Thomas explained, and only about 100 pounds of flour ere needed annually to feed the average person. “The enrichment feature of this National health program is unique in low cost per capital, “the nutritionist declared. “While all the bread and flour in the country can be enriched for about 20 cents per person per year, an extra glass of milk a day will cost about sl3, an extra egg or an orange $9 to $lO, an extra quar ter of a pound of fresh meat about $25.” Miss Thomas also emphasized the fact that “enriched” bread and flour is not medicine. “It is simply the restoration of certain vitamins and minerals which are removed from white flour and bread in the milling and baking processes. Enriched bread and flour look and taste just exactly like ordinary white flour and bread. But there is a big difference in the nutritive value of the pro ducts.” Who Knows? 1.
