Da ary [HVE WLC FRA EAS . Seven Fuels For Whether Weather Hot or Cold - A Little of Seven Food Pa There are seven varleties "of { food which we all need to keep us i in health, says a doctor. Whether -the weather 1s hot or cold, and whether we are lazy or energetle, We must have some of each of * these kinds of food. No one variety can replace another, while It we 3. eat too' much of one, and too little | ; ot another, the balance of diges. | tion and nutrition Is upset and we may become fll, Here are the sev: { ~~ en pillars of a healthy diet:-- } . . (1) Proteins, These have been compared to building stones, be- caues in the process of digestion ed into actual body tissue, Animal protelns (milk, meat, fish and eggs) are more easily built into our bodies than vegetable proteins (such as peas and Qeans). (2). Fats. From cream, butter, eggs, suet, fat of 'meat, and oils (especially fish oils), » y (3). Carbohydrates, which give . energy and are derived from sugar and starch, Including cereals, bread root vegetables, and many fruits, h (4). Mineral salts, from milk, i meat, the germ and thin {nner cov- ering of. whole cereals and from vegetables -- particularly green vegetables -- and fruits. (5). Vitamins, found with miner- al salts in the above classes of food and in tish ofls, they are ne- cessary for health, -growth,. .and protection from disease, (6). Extractives.

German-Russian non-agression pact did was to give Japan the jitters, turning the Rising Sun nation against its for- mer triangle-partner, Germany, Im- mediately Japan began to look: with : favor again "upon Britain, Within three. days of the signing of thé new pact, Japanese army men left off stripping British sub- fects in China, began to make the German nationals suffer the var- fous indignities instead. 'TIS AN ILL WIND: Wars' and rumors of wars and successive crises in Europe don't help busi ness much, - They bring trade be- play havoc with the stock market, chase customers away from every mercantile door, throw the youth of the land Into a frame of mind where they think a hand-to-mouth existence is the only possible one. But... . it's an {ll wind that blows nobody good.

See- ond place was taken by the Mont- real "Skeet Club's' No, 2 Team whose score of 440 left them 28 points behind the victorious Tor- onto squad. The other entries and scores were: Saint John, N.B,, Skeet Club 432, Trail, B.C., Trap and Skeet Club 424, and the Medi- cine Hat, Alta., Gun Club 424, With a brilliant display of marksmanship, Lister missed only three clay-pigeon targets out of the hundred thrown as his score of 97 led the Toronto marksmen to victory in the nation-wide tour- nament, 3 In the first round of the nation- al shooting tournament, sponsored each year by the Dominion Marks- men organization, the crack Tor- onto team successively defénded its Central Zone title by outshoot- ing the six teams entered in the --_--== Acye Of Wheat Brings In $8.35 How 'the Sukilchevon .
