Houston Goudiss Offers Practical Help in Planning Meals That Avoid Hidden Hunger; Illustrates Right and Wrong Methods of Menu Building By C. HOUSTON GOUDISS AGENERATION ago, homemakers approached the prob-lem of feeding their families with but two objectives: to put weight on their children and to send adults away from the table with their appetites appeased. If the child failed to gain satisfactorily, or if his teeth were crowded and sub-ject to decay, he was said to "take after his Uncle Abner" or perhaps to have inherited the poor teeth of his maternal grandmother. And if adults were chronically tired or suf-fered from "nerves," that, too, was blamed on circum-stances that had nothing to do with the diet. No one had ever heard of hid-den hunger! For nutritionists had in many homes: Hamburger Steak, Baked Beans, Potatoes, Stewed Corn, Custard Pie. Since both meat and baked beans are rich in protein, they may well be served at separata meals, as indicated by either of the following combinations: Ham-burger Steak, Creamed Potatoes, String Beans, Lettuce Salad, Fresh or Cooked Fruit. Or, Baked Beans, Stewed Tomatoes, Cabbage Salad, Custard Pie. In the first menu, the beans, po-tatoes, corn and pastry are all high carbohydrate foods. To pro-vide additional bulk, as well as to reduce the amount of carbo-hydrate, it would be advisable to serve a green vegetable such as string beans, and choose fruit in-stead of pie for dessert. It is as-sumed, of course, that eggs would be given in some other form dur-ing the day. Since baked beans contain both protein and carbohydrate, we omit potatoes in the third menu, and serve a food rich In vitamin C the tomatoes, and add a bulky raw vegetable by way of the salad. It's Balance That Counts It requires no more time or ef-fort te prepare nutritionally cor-rect meals than those which lack balance, nor is it more expen-sive. For elaborate meals can lack balance, if they are deficient in minerals, vitamins and bulk, while those composed of such simple foods as bread and milk, and stewed fruits may provide an abundance of the protective sub-stances which satisfy the hidden hunger of the body. My plea to homemakers Is to give less thought to the prepara-tion of elaborate recipes, and more thought to supplying the food values that will create abundant health and vitality. In that way, I believe we shall take a real step-forwar- In human progress. C WNU C. Houston Goudlis 1909ST ifI M not yet startled the world by demon-strating that food may satisfy the ap-petite and yet fail to feed . . . that the absence of mi-nute amounts of minerals and vita-mins may be re-sponsible for a long train of deficiency diseases which every child, a pint for each adult, which may be served as a bever-age, with cereals, in soups, sauces or made into desserts; an egg daily, or at least three or four weekly; one serving of meat, fish or chicken, usually at the main meal of the day; a second protein food, such as cheese, baked beans or nuts, usually served at lunch or supper; two vegetables besides potatoes, one of which should be of the raw, leafy variety; two servings of fruit, and at least one serving of a whole grain cereal. By adhering to this plan, you will help to supply your family with the necessary proteins, min-erals, vitamins and cellulose. Fuel foods may be added by way of breadstuffs, macaroni, rice and other cereals; butter or margarine and the fats used in cooking. Common Errors In Menu Planning Common mistakes in menu plan-ning are a concentration of too many proteins or carbohydrates in one meal; the failure to include adequate bulk by way of fruits, vegetables and whole grain cere-als; and the massing in one meal of too many foods that are high in fat. The following menu, for exam-ple, contains more protein than necessary, and too little bulk, yet it is typical of the dinners served cause untold mis-ery and are responsible for men-tal and physical inefficiency. Planning Meals Scientifically Today we know that a definite relationship exists between food consumption and bodily activity, and that normal individuals can usually control body weight by regulating the amount of fuel foods in the diet. We know that minerals and vitamins play a pow-erful part in building and main-taining sound teeth as well as healthy nerves; and that we can build resistance to disease, defer old age, and even lengthen the span of life by choosing our food, not merely for its appetite appeal, but for the qualities that contrib-ute toward what nutritionists term a balanced diet. The Balanced Diet Every modern homemaker therefore owes it to her family not to plan meals at random, but to take into consideration the seven factors that Bcience has deter-mined to be essential for top health. These include: protein for building and repairing body tissue; carbohydrates to produce quick heat and energy; fats, a more compact form of fuel; min-erals, which serve both as build-ers, and as regulators of body processes; vitamins A, B, C, D, E and G, which act as regulators, and help to prevent the various de-ficiency diseases; water, which serves as a vehicle by which food is carried to the tissues, and cellu-lose or bulk, required for the nor-mal functioning of the intestinal tract.

Most agree, also, that his next step will be capture of the Free City of Danzig (now under League control) and the adjacent corridor which is Poland's only out-let to the Baltic sea. That Ger-many will get these concessions without a fight is further evident because Danzig is already 90 per cent Nazi; Poland, moreover, ap-parently recognizes her futile posi-tio- n and is ready to move into the German orbit rather than join a French-British-Rus- s alliance permit-ting Soviet troops to cross her soil.

Nazi press notes like these sound suspiciously like the start of another campaign: Field Marshal Goering's Essener National Zeitung: "Polish attacks on Germans (in Pole territory) are an intolerable strain on the German-Polis- h treaty of friendship democ-racies pull the strings!" (Similar allegations regarding German mi-norities preceded recent Nazi inva-sions in Austria, Sudetenland and Czechoslovakia.) Deutsche Diplomatisch-Politisch- e Korrespondcnz: The paper advised Poles to continue collaborating with Germany and not to listen to "for-eign sirens" lest the results not be "advantageous."

Though the 1939 crop will otherwise swell governme-nt- held surpluses to 13,000,000 bales, congressional economy appar-ently won. Said Virginia's Rep. Clif-ton Woodrum: "We might as well repeal the budget and the account-ing act, and let pandemonium and chaos reign." Meanwhile, far in the future, southern cotton farmers saw relief in the revolutionary "cottonless" cotton developed at Texas A. & M. college's experimental college. Said to produce an over-larg- oil-ric- h seed without detracting from the grade of the lint, the new product made farmers wonder if cotton couldn't be raised exclusively for oil, whose price is fairly constant. Transportation Among other things, U. S. rail-roads blame high taxes, bad busi-ness and unfair competition from other media for their present plight. Labor blames the railroads them-selves. Most people blame a mix-ture of geographical, economic and political factors, in which every-body's hands are partially soiled. When railroading reached a crisis last autumn and congressional aid became imperative, a flock of pana-ceas arose ranging from the Hast-ings "postalizing" plan to the sub-stantial bills of Montana's Burton K. Wheeler and California's Clarence F. Lea. Both management and la-bor pressed their particular cases and after two months of haggling the issue seemed little nearer a so-lution. The latest voice is that of Joseph B. Eastman, interstate commerce Labor The unhappy plight of U.

Whether Mr. Eastman's will be the guiding hand remains to be seen, but his com-ments were at least clarifying.

(2) Elimination of rate conces-sions to the government would save about $7,000,000 a year. (3) All important forms of trans-portation should receive "equal and impartial regulation." preferably under ICC direction. While the house sped passage of a bill to facilitate voluntary rail re-organizations, Mr. Eastman pointed out that creation of a new reorgani-zation court would delay rather than facilitate matters.

But he deserves more honor for a daring exploit which he per-formed as a young man on the Illi-nois frontier. The scion of an old New York family, Webb ran away from home at the age of 17 and went to Washington where he persuaded John C. Calhoun, secretary of war, to give him a commission in the army. In October, 1821, young Lieuten-ant Webb was sent to join the garri-son at Fort Dearborn. In the mid-dle of the winter John Kinzie, the Indian agent at Chicago, reported to the commander that the Sioux and Foxe Indians were plotting to surprise and massacre the garrison at Fort Snelling the next spring. Colonel McNeil immediately called for volunteers to carry the news of the plot to Fort Armstrong (near Rock Island, 111.) so that word could be sent up the river to Fort Snelling. Lieut. Webb offered to make the Journey. Accompanied by a sergeant and a Pottawatomie guide, he set out early in February. He intended to go first to the post of a French trader on the Rock river and there secure a Win-nebago guide. But when he reached the post he found the Winnebagoes holding war dances. So Webb and the sergeant cautiously circled around the camp and headed toward Fort Armstrong. The weather was bitterly cold and the two men faced the danger of perishing in the raging blizzard. But in spite of this they reached Fort Armstrong in safety. As a result of their trip, the commander at Fort Snelling so reinforced his post that the Indians did not dare attack and a possible massacre was averted. A Safety-Minde- d Adventurer THE Colorado river was referred as a "mysterious monster" until Maj. J. W. Powell made the first authentic survey of its canyons in 1869. It lured many daring ad-venturers to their death both before and after his first expedition. Strangely enough, Powell was a scholar and not an adventurer by purpose. Even when he made his successful journey down the river, it was his methodical preciseness rather than engineering or navigat-ing ability that brought success. The Colorado descends an average of more than eight feet each mile and makes this drop by a series of rapids. It rages through canyons with perpendicular walls that often tower several thousand feet. Powell never ran into anything dangerous when he could avoid It. Being a geologist and not a naviga-tor, he beached his boat and sent men along the cataract walls to the rapids ahead before he attempted to descend them. Pow-ell's methods were so successful that he is one of only a few who ever made expeditions down the Col-orado without losing a single life. He traveled the Colorado from the Green river in Wyoming to Virgin canyon below the Grand canyon, bringing back the first authentic in-formation about that natural wonder. Although he was a professor of geology at Illinois Wesleyan univer-sity and had had no navigating ex-perience before his first venture, he designed boats that became models for Colorado river work. Major Powell was a paradox a cautious man whose motto was "safety first" and yet he was one of America's greatest adventurers. King Strang IN 1847 James Jesse Strang and the first two names are in the proper order! led a colony from Voree, near LaCrosse, Wis., to the Beaver islands just west of Trav-erse bay in Lower Michigan. There he set up a "kingdom" over which he ruled with an iron hand. He was a picturesque figure with his flaming whiskers almost as red as the kingly robe he wore. Not only did he dispense his own cruel brand of justice to the people in his colony but he constanUy made war on the Irish fishermen on the mainland and often pillaged their homes. Finally he became so bold that President Fillmore issued a warrant for his arrest on a charge of treason for setting up an inde-pendent government within the Unit-ed States. For some unknown rea-son he was not found guilty and re-turned to his "kingdom." But his downfall was not long in coming. He made a law that all women were to wear short skirts with baggy bloomers. When Mrs. Thomas Bedford refused, her hus-band was flogged for upholding her refusal. This was a fatal mistake. . For Bedford and another man who had been flogged at the same time, waylaid their hated monarch and shot him. He was taken back to die of his wounds at Voree and the peo-ple of his "kingdom" were driven away from their island by the in-habitants of the Michigan mainland. e Western Newspaper Union. "PHE full-sleeve- d, high-waist-dress (1721) is a perfectly charming fashion for afternoon parties, club meetings and lunch-eons.

Chill Candles. Thoroughly chilled in the refrigerator, wax candles will burn slower and last longer. Let Youngsters Learn. It is the wisest plan to allow young people to manage their own money, after handing over a fixed sum for their keep. In this way they learn the value of money and are encour-aged to save, thus giving them a good training for future responsi-bilities. That's the Spirit. Silk stockings can be preserved if, when new, they are soaked in methylated spirit for five minutes, then hung up in the air until the smell has evaporated. This treatment makes them ladderless for a long time and the good work will be further carried on if a line of machining is run around the top just below the "suspender line." |
