THE WAY OF LIFE
The “Milky Way” of Life is com*
mended to Canadians by officials iff
the nutrition division of the de
partment of national health and
welfare, Ottawa.
Milk contains calcium-—in fact,
is the best known source of it. So,
say the experts, children should be
fed from a pint to a quart of milk
daily, and. everyone should try to
drink, or take in food, from half
a pint to a full pint a day.
Milk helps to give us such es
sentials to beauty and well-being
as white teeth, bright eyes, straight,
figures and lovely skins.

Fixing Faces
Many otherwise intelligent peo
ple, the doctors areXaware, suffer
from self-consciousness and lack
of confidence because of some faci
al handicap, such as protruding
jumbled teeth in mal-formed jaws.
Authorities want such people to
know that they have no excuse for
depriving themselves of business
and social advantages or of person
al happiness. Dentists are able, in
this day and age, to improve the
most embarrassing -mouth and fa
cial conditions by advice and treat
ment leading to correction of un
derlying causes.
So, Canadians are advised, if
i teeth are the cause of reluctance
to take a full share of life, see the
dentist at once.
Hello Homemakers! Just as the
Pilgrim fathers gathered to give
thanks for the harvest of the new
land so can we. Our spring season
was wet and late yet our farmers
did not lose hope and to-day we are
humble in our appreciation of the
products of our fields. So on
Thanksgiving Day, we will give
thanks and resolve not to waste the
good things from the harvest while
others are starving. The Thanks
giving dinner therefore can be
seasonal and inexpensive, with
simplicity the keynote.

Home Training
For their personal profit, as well
as for our. collective well-being,
children are taught at school that
they must abide, all through life,
by accepted rules of social behav
iour, such as teamplay, fairness,
discipline, punctuality, etc.
Now, health authorities suggest
to parents that such training should
be left entirely to school authori
ties. The home, too, should give
the youngsters constant' direction
in such important matters as
sportsmanship and co-operation.
And, since much of a child’s per
sonality is built around the home,
such training must be centred and
practised there.

To Fill Cracks
For the “handy woman about
the home” who wields a putty
knife on occasion, it may be help
ful to know that cracks in plaster
I are more satisfactorily filled by a
mixture of plaster of Paris and
vinegar than by plaster of Paris and
water. The vinegar keeps the plas-
ter mass from setting too soon and
: the wielder of the putty knife has
time to do a professional-looking j job, according to authorities at
* Massachusetts State College.
) Few people, say health authori-
’ ties, seem to give any thought to
| what they eat. They just take meals
as a chore or a. habit, not the im
portant health-function it should
be.
Expert Advice
Information on how to keep
healthy, as well as how to avoid
disease, should be obtained only
from persons qualified by training
and experience to advise in such
an important field. It is a neces
sary to undersand the positive
truths on which genuine health is
built, as it is to realize how false
are some of the ideas which have
grown up about physical and men
tal matters.
Public health authorities warn
against trifling with one’s well
being by practising self-medication
or by accepting unprofessional
guidance. Canada’s colleges and
hospitals are turning out people of
high attainment in the medical and
associated fields to lead us to high
er standards along sound scientific
lines.

I “Darling, we have such a lot to

Salad Plates
A protein food, such as meat,
Tish, cheese or eggs, should form
the basis of salad dishes. Making
the salad the main plate at a meal
has the approval of the specialists
in the field of healthful eating,
but they suggest that the greens,
etc., be bolstered up with more
substantial fare.
To make tlie salad look more
palatable, such garnishes as crisp
radish roses, celery curls, carrot
straws or parsleys are suggested.

Most fashionable leather this fall
is suede, combined for greater effec

Manners Mark
Teen-Age Poise
The teen-agers who stand out in
a holiday crowd as nice and worth
knowing are the girls who take
their good manners on vacation
with them.
The teen-ager who gets up when
an older woman enters a room and
offers her chair if none other is
available, will be applauded by
young and old alike as a girl with
attractive manners.
Any lass who covets that distinc
tion will also behave nicely to
younger children. As a matter of
fact, she will make it a point to
be as pleasant to little tykes and
grown-ups as to girls and boys of
her own age group.
Limiting herself to a clique of
one or two chums is a dandy way
for a teen-ager to lower her charm
rating. Another way is to isolate
the most attractive boy present for
a cozy twosome.
Skirt Length Increases
Five or More Inches
Hiding the American woman’s
kneecap this fall is one fashion
“must” on which all designers are
agreed. Skirt length takes a sud
den plunge of five or more inches.
Less unanimous is the aim of
stylists to pull stuffing out of the
shoulders. Those who don’t yank
out all cushioning modify the size
of shoulder pads,
Coats almost more than any
other daytime fashions seen in
early previews reflect a prodigal
use of yardage. They will envelop
the little woman of 1948 like a
tent. Or Will float fullness behind
her like a bridal veil. Coats swing
from yokes like peignoirs; wrap
around with lavish lapovers. Many
wrap-arounds, stay put With the
help of a hand.
Many hew suits owe their suave
look to broadcloth. With softer
shoulders, longer jackets, plung
ing hemlines and bandings of fur,
such suits strike a. new note of ele
gance. Metallic or brocade blouses
add to this effect. ■
Hip-artay also gives 1948 suits
their new look. Bulky pockets seen
aft as often as for, bustles, pleat
ed peplums, and drapery are used
to break the straight figure-line
which mose designers are out io
break.
