THE WAYNESVILLE MOUNTAINEER. Tomatoes for Children OME month aeo in Kansas Gty, mothers and teachers made an aireement to conducUa great edu cational experiment. The purpose was n determine how much success in school if affected by what the child eats. A local parent and teacher associa tion carried on the experiment with children who were starting to school the following all. Rules on child feeding were laid down and they in cluded only the very simple foods carefully arranged and measured. The diet consisted of milk, vegetables, ana fruit, and the meals were so planned that the child received in each one the sufficient caloric value with all the food properties in correct pro portion. This is what happened : In check ing the progress of these children during the first year of school, it was found that "The usual number of failures was reduced by an enor mous amount." Rules on the diet of growing children had brought about these desirable results. Tomatoes are among the important items to be served to the child reg ularly, for these have the maximum amount of vitamin A and also the greatest possible content of vitamins B and C. There is no more im portant food on the health lists than tomatoes, either fresh or canned, and a growing child should have tomatoes in some form every" day of the year. The mother's difficulty is to arrange her menus not only to that the child has the correct food values but also so that he does not realise he is eat ing the very tame food at often as it it necessary that he should eat it. She must find new and unusual ways of fixing tomatoes to that her child will eat them willingly and with pleasure the year round. There are many ways of varying the daily appearance of tomatoes at the family table. As they come in cans of five different sixes, almost any tomato dish may be prepared with out any waste or left-overs. Toma toes are equally healthful for both adults and children and great care should therefore be taken to serve them in likeable and appetizing forms. Here are several suggestions for help ing your family enjoy this health giving food. Blushing Bonny Unlike other rarebits, Blushing Bunny or tomato rarebit is a health ful food for children.
