Show ( THE RICH COUNTY REAPER. RANDOLPH. UTAH j-fe-yd ADVENTURERS MILK STILL RATES AS PERFECT FOOD Nutrition Studies Disclose High Vitamin Content. By DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN In the last quarter century the field of nutrition has advanced more than in all the previous centuries of mankind. In that advance milk has held its place as the most nearly perfect food. From the point of view of protein and of fat, of mineral salts and of vitamins, it stands supreme. True, milk is somewhat deficient in vitamin C, in vitamin D, . and in iron, but these values are easily supplied and no other food gives as much as milk for the money. If there is any other highly important fact which our studies have revealed, it is that ordinarily we do not consume as much milk as we should, being led frequently by improper advice to other foods not nearly as efficient in human nutrih of the food budgtion. Yet et of the average American family is used for milk and milk products. So important is milk for the human being that the health section of the League of Nations has recently made available a study of this product by a committee with representatives from Denmark, Holland, England, and France. It may surprise many Americans to relize that the milk supply in most foreign countries does not approximate in its general safety the average milk supply of the United States. In many countries it has been customary to gloss over the unsatisfactory contents of the milk supply with the assurance that the benefits to health resulting from increased consumption will outweigh the danger of drinking milk that is not hygienic. In this country we know that the development of a good milk .supply begins back on the farm with the cows and the quality of feed given to the cows. one-fift- CLUB That Gets the Crowds A steam shovel always seems to do its work so amply. It was Ed Howe who said that every man should be arrested about two times in his life for HEADLINES FROM THE LIVES OF PEOPLE LIKE Y OUR SELF I what he thinks. O Death in the Eeltrap Then They Sober Up People always laugh at the TAXI, MISTER? ELLO, EVERYBODY: A 1 A fisherman takes his living out of the water, and at times the water is pretty generous. But its a treacherous element when it wants to be, and there are times when it takes back more than it has given. Sometimes it drives a mighty hard bargain. Judd ORourke, of Hartford, Conn., made his living for eight or nine months by wheedling it from the Saco river in Maine. Judd didnt take any too much from the river. Darned little more than he needed to live on. But when the river came around to collect, it wanted Judds life in payment for those few months of subsistence. It was in the spring of 1929 when Judd started to wrest a living from the river. He' was digging clams and fishing for eels, down at the mouth of the stream. Eel fishing took quite a bit of equipment. One set line alone cost about eight dollars for material and a days work putting it together. A set line is a long rope, with weights on it every 20 feet to keep it down at the bottom of the river, and three or four hundred shorter lines attached to it at intervals. The shorter lines are baited to catch the eels which swim along near the bottom of the stream on their way out to sea with the ebbing tide. Set Line Anchored by Concrete Blocks. Judds set line stretched clear across the river. It was anchored by concrete blocks a few feet out from either shore, and at one end there was a Boat that told Judd where he could find it when he wanted it. You never take a set line entirely out of the water. When you want to gather your catch, you haul the line up at the buoy and work your way along it in a rowboat, pulling the line up in front of you and letting it fall back in the water behind. One morning, Judd and his friend, George Croft, were rowing out to some mud flats for bait. On their way, they passed one of Judds set lines and stopped to see if there was a stray eel or two on it. Judd A farmer rushed up to the home of a country doctor in the village late one night and asked him to come at once to a distant farmhouse. The medicine man hitched up his horse and they drove furiously to the farmers home. Upon their ar- fool things you try to do until they discover that you are making money at it. Tradition should be treated with respect. It is often worth rival the farmer asked: How much is your fee, doctor? Three dollars, said the physician in surprise. Here you are, said the farmer, the handing over the money; blamed liveryman wanted five dollars to drive me home. That Umbrella Shortly after the broadcast of the news bulletin announcing Mr. Chamberlains departure for Rome, little Helen, being only eight, was sent to bed. Mummy, she asked as she was tucked up, why didnt Mr. Chamberlain take his umbrella to Italy? But he did take it, dear, was the surprised answer, although the announcer didnt say so. Im not so sure, said Helen, defor the announcer only cidedly, said that Mr. Chamberlain had taken his staff with him.

The proof of this is well illustrated in the case of John Flaherty a tailor in Niles, Ohio, whose diet for the past 20 years consisted only of milk. Mr. Flaherty recently died at the ripe old age of 75 years. He began the all milk diet in 1917 as a result of a stricture of the esophagus, which he contributed to an overdose of serum in inoculation during the war. From 1917 until his death he drank only a quart of milk a day.

He shot up about five feet, and then stopped with a jerk that took the air out of his lungs. That jerk The first thing I thought, he says, was that a large scared Judd. squid had me. To this day I dont know why I should have thought that, for the largest squid I have ever seen weighed only a pound and a half. Then I Jooked down and saw that it was the anchor rope, tied to my waist, that was holding me. I knew it must be caught on the bottom, so I grasped it and hauled myself downward, hand over hand. Judds lungs were aching now. The air was gone out of them, and he knew it would be a long time before he could untangle that rope and get to the surface. Would he make it? Well he was doing his best. That 10 feet of rope seemed like 500. His heart was beating and his head was spinning. At last he reached the point where the rope was snagged, and thenp calamity! As he reached the snag, the rope suddenly tightened, drawing him up close against the stump. Up in the boat, George Croft had picked that moment to become alarmed and try to haul Judd out of the water, And with the rope caught in the snag, George was hauling him dowr instead of up down to his death! : Judd began to struggle. But the rope only pulled him closer to the stump. It was so tight that Judd couldnt possibly free it from the snag, and there werent many more seconds left in which hed be able to free it. His lungs were bursting and his stomach felt as if it were turning inside out. He began water and at that moment he thought of the knife he , swallowing had brought down to cut the set line. It was in his belt. ' He got . it out, cut the rope and that was the last Judd remembered. Is your basketball team all made up? All but one, and she doesnt even use face powder.
