She went o CatonviDe to nset the people and see the town Zora had so eloquently UmDrtalized to her writing. She went to Ft. Pierce to find Zora1! final resting place and mark her grave. ' ; Alice Walker1! discoveries about Zora Neale Hurston, the towns, the ' people, the creativity of Black women and ultimatley towns, the people, the creativity of Black women and ultimately about herself are reveated in a' current Ms. Magazine article. Zora Neale Hurston was born in Eatonville, Florida. A Barnard graduate she was the author of four novels, two books of folklore, one volume of autobiography and was an important collector of Afro-American folklore in America. Yet she died in a community welfare home in, Ft. Pierce, Florida and friends in town took up a collection for her burial. "Not many black people in America have come from a self contained, all black community where loyalty and unity are taken for granted. A palce where black pride is nothing new." Eatonville is such community, and as Alice Walker says in Ms. perhaps this begins to explain why Zora was against desegregation. Alice Walker has always asked herself how the creativity of the Black Woman was kept alive, year after year, century after century, when for most of the years Black people have been in America, it was a crime for a Black person to read or write. She wrote in an earlier essay, "What did it mean for a Black woman to be an artist in our grandmothers' t i me? I n our great-grandmothers' day? It is a question with an answer cruel enough to stop the. blood," ang she suggests, "Listen to the voices of Bessie Smith, Billie Holiday, Nina Sjmone, Roberta Flack and Aretha Franklin among others tnd Imagine those voices mutiled for life,' Then you may begin to comprehend the lives ' of 1 our mothers ang grandmothers." f And then you begin to comprehend why Alice Walker has dedicated herself to making the life of Zora Neale Hurston part of our American heritage. Alice Walker's prose and poetry explore the black experience in the South, a subject she studied first-hand in Eatonton, Georgia as one of eight children born to sharecropping parents and as si activist in the Civil Rights movement.

DIET: KEY TO HEALTH AND HAPPINESS Proper eating won't keep you from beiny hit by a truck or poisoned by a snake. But tiood eaiinjj habits can help you re cover more quickly Irom an ac cident or illness. Plus, a good diet van help insure your day-today happiness. Healthful eatin! is especially important during the lonj! winter months when susceptibility to colds 'and other winter-related illnesses is greatest. "Many people consider eating three meals a day a healthful diet." says Dr. Sam Rehnborg. t).J. in biophysics and execu tive vice president and director of research at Nutrilite Products. IntrThe key factor unremem bcr, however, is not how often you rat. but "hul you eat." - Many foods taste and look ap ' pealing- Taste and appearance, though, are not a safe guide to what is good for you. For in stance, rich pastries are a tasty, eye-appealing food, but they add little nutrition to your diet. 1 Another dietary problem to which so many Americans have fallen prey is eating only when hungry. People will eat almost anything V if i they are hungry enough. Unfortunately, this syndrome is aided by our "on-the-go" lifestyle and numerous snack foods which satisfy hunger . knt Ann't acrnmmoHHlt ooorf health;. ,' Most people actually don't know jwhat foods contribute to a well-balanced, three-meal-a-day diet. In addition, people who do have some concept of the four basic food groups - milk, meat, vegetable-fruit, and bread-cereal - still may have a diet lack ing in essential vitamins and minerals. This is because many important vitamins and minerals are lost during food processing, storage, and cooking. Dr. Rehnborg says home makers should concentrate on selecting and preparing foods from the four basic food groups and cooking them so as to mini mize valuable mineral and vita min losses. Also, because pre pared and ready-to-eat fixxls necessarily make up a large por tion of the average diet, it is wise to substitute missing diet essen tials with a food supplement. An increasing number of nutrition-conscious people eat food supplements with their regular meals. The. Nutrilite"' line has multi-vitamins, individual vita mins; and minerals, as well as a special food supplement based on watercress, alfalfa, and pars ley. . ; -, :'' Nutrilite food supplements and vitamins are owned and dis tributed by Am way Corporation, one of the largest direct sales , firms,. with over 200,000 indepen dent distributorships in the U.S., Canada; Australia, Hong Kong, and the" United Kingdom.

L Ul. bUIJI IlUlklf jr- -i, biib bAi MuW y?, Q by MURIEL JANSEN PEARL BAILEY COOKBOOK NOW IN PAPERBACK With hard cover cook books so expensive, it gives me extra pleasure to write about the paperback edition of "Pearl's Kitchen." (New York: Pocket Book, 1974, $1.50.) 1 have read it from cover to cover and enjoyed every word. Pearl Bailey, delightful woman, dedicates her book with these words: "To Humanity, who has so surrounded me with "love," my cup runneth over-Love returned, Pearl." What a beautiful beginning for any hook. In the first chapter en titled "Mama Looking Over My Shoulder" Pearl Bailey writes about the way Mama raised the family and, remi nisces about her mother's Sunday morning fried chick en. The chickens were picked up early in the morning, freshly ' killed and cooked soon after in the big familiar skillet. They were, according to Pearl, crisp on the outside, tender and moist on the in side and cooked to the bone. Instead of including a rec ipe from "Pearl's Kitchen," for this column 1 share my own fried chicken recipe With you-one developed in the Mazola corn oil kitchens. And with it, I urge all my readers to think about en tering the 1975 National Chicken Cooking Contest. Look for the entry blanks in your local supermarket, or write to me (Muriel Jansen. Best Foods, A Divi sion of CPC International Inc., Englewood Cliffs, N.J. 07632) and I will send you all you need to know in order to enter the contest. Maybe one of you will be the winner of a July trip to San Antonio, Texas where you will cook chicken and compete for one of the big cash prizes. The grand prize is $10,000, but there are other prizes, too. I'll tell you all about them if you will write to me. Entries must be in by April 1 , 1 975, and the way time flies, April is just around the corner.
