It seems to be a perfectly natural reaction of human beings to resent a good many things which are done for their own safety Parents figuratively speaking turn and hurl these venomous looks at people or even at inanimate safety measures designed solely for the protection of their children without pausing to think back to the need which prompted the person's act or the rule or law A school patrol has been inaugu rated at several schools in our tow n One would think that parents would rejoice at this effort to pi event traf f ic accidents Instead they openlv resent it when the young “captain" asks them politely to stop at the cor ner and discharge their schuolbouiid passengers instead of m the middle of the block where the child must cross without the help of one of his Sounds prepos young lieutenants terous doesn't it’’ But it is true A mother complained bitteily to me that people weie "tight" and "high hat" with their cars because they V'ouldn’t stop on signal and haul students to high school I reminded her that in many states there is now a law forbidding motorists to pick up hitch hikers and added that I hoped such a law would soon be enforced in I was then "tight" and every state “high hat" too Personally I can’t see why parents refuse to see the value of measures adopted for the safety of their childien Red lights came into use for our protection jet I’ve seen motheis glare at them and sank children thiouph oncoming traffic in a fury of resent ment Quarantine was set up and en forced for the purpose of keeping vour well child well Don’t rail at it nor break it when jour child is ill Ihen it is for the protection of other people’s children and after all that is only fair King Features Sjn dicate Inc ) 1932 (Copyright Salvation Army Plans to Serve Better Meals to Homeless Men WASHINGTON— Homeless men fed by the Salvation Army will receive more palatable and more nututlous meals as a result of suggestions made by nutrition specialists of the bureau of home economics United States tment of agriculture The Salvation Army through the Community Chest of Washington D C lecently requested the buieau to study the food seived in its emer gency relief work and to make sug gestions for varying the food or inThe de creasing its nutritive value partment has given much attention to low cost foods that meet scientific standuds for good nutrition As there has been a great increase this winter in the number of transient unemployed men apphing to the Sal vation Armv for temporary lodging and meals the officers wished to make the best possible use of funds applied to this woik They believed that the department might help them to serve a maximum of food value for the sums that could be spent The organization also hoped that the drop in food prices might possibly permit greater latitude in the menus or the accommodation of a greater number As a result of the bu of applicants reau s recommendations emergency iclief stations of the Salvation Aimj all over the country hav requested and are using the modnfed menus Miriam Birdseye extension nutri tion specialist undertook a study of de-p- a sine n the special problems of the Salvation Army She found that funds were being very carefully expended by purchasing supplies at wholesale and that foods were skillfully cookqd and seasoned The available cooking equipment however permitted only boiling and stewing so the menus were necessarily limited to such foods as oatmeal coffee soups stews beans bread and so on Lack of rtfrigera tion facilities also cut down the range of foods which could be served in quantities sufficient to provide daily more than 500 meals— breakfasts and dinners More fruits and vegetables were recommended as well as more fat to increase the calories and make the food "stick to the ribs” A careful study of current prices and funds available indicated that breakfasts might be varied and made moie nu tritious bv serving on alternate davs some cracked wheat cooked with drv skim milk and every day raw or baked apples applesauce or some other cheap stewed or fresh fruit F’or the dinner menus she recommended the more frequent use of potatoes slaw tomatoes canned cabbage cheese and a deceit consisting of fresh or stewed fruit or an inexpen sive pudding Some kind of a spiead for the bread for both meals was also suggested These additions and Miss changes could be introduced Birdseve estimated within the bud get and without extra equipment Phi I&u sorority girls at the Uni- the next few days The building will be made of cast stone similar in apversity of Utah
