Salad Habit is a Good One to Cultivate Says Expert in Culinary Arts | (By Edith M. Barkber{( The salad habit is a good one to cultivate. Most women are fond of salâ€" ads and during stage a husband can often be persuaded to try to like an a.ppetizmi‘}sp salad if he has not already been converted to its daily use. T‘ it is large enough, the salad may occasionally take the place of a cooked vegetable. Besides potatocs and one cooked vegâ€" etable some vegetables in raw form should be used each day. Unlesg; it is the custom to eat salad for lunch it should appear without fail at dinner. Occasionally relishes such as carrot strips, flowerets of cauliflower, thin pieces of raw turnip or beets, as well as cucumbers in season may serve inâ€" stead of a salad. When possible these should be prepared just before they are to be used as there is loss of vitâ€" amins after exposure to air and also if the cut vegetables are soaked in water. When greens â€"are chosen for use in salads remember that dark, bright green leaves are higher in vitamin A than others. Spinach leaves, watercress and romaine, the cuter leaves of Boston letâ€" tuce and the greener portions of chicory and escarole arse better contributors then bleached celery and head lettuce. Young cabbage which has a tinge of green provides more vitamin A, bit in all forms it is a gcood contributor of jother vitamins. Because it is generally ,so cheap cabbage is one of our most valuable salaed vegetables. When the greens come marâ€" ket they should be wasihed but not sepâ€" arated and dried before they are put in the hydrator of the rsfrigerator. The salad ingredients should be arranged just before serving when the dressing may be added or passed at the table. When it comss to dressings there are a number of vegetable oils made from a base of corn, cotton seed, peanuts) and soy beans. Any one of these may be used by itself or in combination with others. The basiic recipe may be seasâ€" oned with a variety of herbs. A clove of garlic may be allowed to soak in the dressing if you like that flavor. Taste is the best for seasoning. 4 teaspoon salt. g teaspoon pepper teaspcon tugar 1» teaspoon dary mustard 4 teaspconful paprika ‘x;'; cup salad oil _2 tablespoons vinegar 1 tablespoon onion juice.

The candy habit, resulting from the unconscious pressure of other \ children, which may lesson a child‘s appetite for necessary though dess ctrongly flavored foods. 5. Insufficient lunches â€" rushed if the child goes home, or improperly balancâ€" ed if he eats away from home. \ 6. Insufficient cutdoor play as school work demands an increasing proporâ€" +ion of the child‘s waking time.

Six Dangers to Health of Growing Children With food rationing, there is an inâ€" creazed interest in foods and their valâ€" ves, Added to this is the increased inâ€" ter2>st in health by parents themselves, and also in the health of their childâ€" ren. Nothing distresses parents more than to have their yeungsters "differâ€" ent‘‘ from healthy children with whom they play. The Children‘s Bureau of the United States Department of Labor recently issued a publication, ‘"The Road ‘to Good Nutrition" in which Dr. Lydia Roberts, Chairman of the Department cif Home Economics, University of Chicâ€" ago, listed six dangers to the health of growing children. These dangers or pitfalls are: ~ 1. The keepâ€"slender fad among adolâ€" escent ‘(teen age) girls. 3. Loss of slsep partly the result of increasing pressure of homework as the child progresses in school. 2. Inadequate breakfasts caused by children rushing to be at school on time. A good breakfast s‘hould always be eaten and enough time taken to go to the toilet before going to school. These two go together in maintaining health. s to sleap, parents should remember that while childnen need less as thoey grow oclder, they still need many more hours of sleep than an adult and should not be allowed to remain up late to hear the radio or even to do homework. "After the child enters sochool, a regular early time, determined Jargely by the cpening hour of school in the mornâ€" By James W . Barton, M .D. if its Ogilme .115 good / of Pours That Bobp sealp. Unless you work there is a great deal of dust and grime in the air, your scealp, if it is normal or dry, does not need to be shampcoosed more often than every two weeks. Veory dry scalp can wait three weeks. Daily, thorough brushing is necessary, with the brush being wiped on a towel after every twoentyâ€"five strokes. Weekly, | or twice weekly, the scalp should be cleansed with a reliable tonic and fresh cotton, so that it will not become caked with dust and dry cuticle. If you apply the tonic to the scalp sparingly at night «parting the hair every inch or s5) you will siee that it has almost completely been absorbed or has evapâ€" crated by morning. Your hair should nct be sticky at any time between ;hampoos. Most normal and dry scalps benefit by a hot ciling before washingâ€"this may be done with prepared reconditionâ€" ing oil, or heated slive oilâ€"rubbed onto the scalp and combed the length of the hair. Hot, steaming towels are wrapped about the head several times, befcr> the hair is washed with a liquid, bland, shampoo soap. The Shampoo Faulty shampooing results in dull Isoking hair. Do not use laundry soaps to wash your hair, nor s/iampoos which contain a lot of alechol. Bland soaps are the better, and the liquid soaps are the best. If you can shampoo beneath a showâ€" er. Wet the hair in fairly hot water woll first, apply ssme soap, lather it thorâ€" oughly, and rinse it off. Again apply shampoo and lather it well, rinse at least three times or let the shower water run over your hair until it water run over your hair untll it "queaks‘" with cleanliness. Rinsing well is vitally important to nice looking hair. Dry your hair by hand and brush it well for twenty mnutes before you set it yourself or go for a setting. In fact if you can shampoo your hair the day before your sistting, and brush it well both night and morning, you will inâ€" crease its gloss fifty percent. Fingtr Massage I cannot stress too sitrongly the imâ€" portance of daily finger massage of all scalpsâ€"normal, dry or oily. The oily scalp needs it more than the dry. And the girl with an oily si:alp needs to.exâ€" ercise more. She can also use a slightly astringent tonic two or three times A wezsk to cleanse her scalp, and occaâ€" sionally she can use a soapless shamâ€" p2o when her hair gets too oily and it is not time for a shampoo. Oily heads should not be shampooed more often than once every ten days. Strive to have a shampoo every second week, too, as your scalp becomes normal. (Released by The Bell Syndicate, Inc.) ing should be strictly enforced The candy habit. While this can be controlled at home, it is difficult to conâ€" trol it at school as "all the other childâ€" ren buy candy at or near the school". It is becauss the candy habit spoils his liking for other foods that Dr. Roberts condemns it. My own feeling a@bout candy or sweets is that the youngster should be allowsd candy, or bread and sugar, when he comes home at 3.30 or 4 in the afternoon and goes cut to play. He will use un the candy or sugar by playing and will not be so tired when he eats his evening meal. If he or she does not go cut to play, candy or sugar should not be given. should not be given. Lunches bought at school can be both sufficient and satisfying if the school lunch room is under proper supervision. TIf not supervised, it is pointed out that the or necessary foods are left umeaten, in favor of cakes or other sweets, Children teday do not get enough cutdocr play as the best hours of the dGay are spent in school. After school t*here may be homework, music, or other studies which shorten the number of play hours. As the above information comes from such high sources â€" Children‘s Bureau of the United States Department of Labor, and the University of Chicago â€" it should be given careful thought by all parenits.
