TAX 05 ALL BACHELORS

sentative Hauser's bill to tax unmar

Anyway, It passed the bill on sec
ond reading by an overwhelming rote
after all amendments, serious and flip
pant, had been voted down in stentor
ian style. It wan first moved to send
It to a committee In order that Repre
sentative Kverett, of Durham, one of
the most distinguished bachelors,
might appear and oppose it but that
gentleman subsequently disavowed
.My purpose to do (hat so long as the

HOME DEMONSTRATION
DEPARTMENT
The first food a family should have
is milk, and the last food to be dis
pensed with is milk. While It is true
indeed that "life is more than meat"
it is also equally true that there is no
life of the spirit without sustenance
for the body. Few or us realize or
stop to think just why we eat food-.
I'Sually we eat because we are hun
gry but in order to have well-nour-j
ished txrtlies we must give a little
more time and thought to the mean
ing of well-balanced meats.
We eat food for three main reasons.
(1) To build new body tissues or
growth and to renew worn out tissues.
(2) To supply heat and energy to car
ry on body processes ana (3) to reg
ulate the body processes. Milk con-l
tains protein which builds body tis
sues!, sugar to furnish energy and
mineral matter, especially lime and
phosphorous to build bone and help
as regulators. In addition to these
milk contains some newly discovered
substances called vltamines. Four of
these vltamines have been discovered
so far. The first Is fat-soluble found
in milk fat, egg fat, cod liver oil and i
green leaves. The second is *vater
toluble found In germ of seeds, in
yeast in milk, and also in green leav
es. The third Is water-soluble found
principally in fresh fruits and vege
tables and milk. The fourth is spok-l
en of as the anterachetic vita mine, be-'
csnse ft prevents the disease known
as rickets. This vitamine Is found
in cod liver oil and probably in milk
also. The lack of these vltamines In
the diet causes what Is known as de
ficiency diseases. Vltamines are
growth promotfng and life giving sub
stances .
We consider the typical American
diet to be meat, potatoes and bread.
If we compare these foods with milk
we And milk to be- a campnratlvely
cheap tipt very nourishing food. It
Is startling to find that there Is as
much lime In one quart of milk as
we find in 28 pounds of round beef,
23 pounds of potatoes or 9 pounds of
white bread.
Often we hear a child or perhaps
an adult say they db not like sweet
milk. Well buttermilk and chocolate
milk are very good and then think of
the number-of foods which can he
made of milk. Surely we all like
butter, cheese. Ice cream, cocoa or hot
chocolate, milk soups, custards, milk
gravy and croam sauce over vegetables
as well as a number of other combi
nations of which milk Is the founrla-_
tlon.
Good- feeding Is one of the gr fa lint
factors In maintaining health, A
well-fed person la much better able
to resist disease than an under-nour
ished person.
Dr. McCollum, of John Hopkins
University, one of the leading author
ities on nut?itlon says U we would
live long and be happy, and grow old
gracefully we must observe three
rales for s s*f* 4M. 1. day
every person must get one quart of
mtlk or Its equivalent In butter,
checse and milk dishes. 2. Every
day every person must get two fresh
r^v truita or vegetables suchc as ap
ple, orange, raw cabbage, lettuce, cel
ery, etc. 3. Every day every person
must get at least one liberal serving
| of some cooked leafy stemy vegetable
' mch as spinach, collards, turnip salad
'kale, etc. Let us all think these over.
