Another leaf has been torn off the 1943 calendar, bringing us to a realization that we should fortify ourselves against bitter, biting weather. Things are different this year, We must try to get along with less fuel. By following the advice of heating authorities we can do much to keep our homes warm and at the same time share the fuel. It is our duty, however, not only to co-operate in exercising neceu- i sary economies, but to safeguard our health in order that we may be fit for the vital work we have to do on the home front. To safeguard our health we should not only wear warm clothing for the winter, but we must eat the right kinds of food. Unfortunately, there is still some misapprehension as to the kind of heat-producing foods we should take, Hot foods are not always heat pro­ ducing. For example: a cup of cool cocoa produces far more heat than a cup of steaming clear coffee, be­ cause cocoa, is a starch plus fat, i I !
