CLINTON' WATCH THOSE HIDDEN WEIGHT BOOSTERS Anybody who is inclined to put on unwanted pounds has all kinds of insidious enemies lurking in the refrigerator and kitchen cupboard. And the surprising thing is how often we fail to recognize the enemy. It may be an extra doughnut (surely that won't do any harm); or a bit of creamed vegetable that the family didn't use; or a little leftover pudding that shouldn't be wasted. Then there are even less obvious weight builders that catch people off guard unless they're pointed out to them. I was hearing the other day of a woman who was almost in tears discuseed'her N4Ilit problem with her doctor. f. "I'm eating much less paita ithan I did," she said. "We have just ordinary servings of meat and vegetables—and lots of fruit. I don't know why I'm putting on weight." "How much coffee do you drink?" the doctor asked her. "Oh, maybe 12 or 14 cups a day." "And how much sugar in each cup?" "Perhaps two teaspoons, perhaps three," was the answer, It's as easy as that to consume more food than you need. And any food beyond your daily needs is just naturally stored as fat, Continue it year after year, and the result can be disastrous, If weight is a problem with you, and you insist on drinking over 10 cups of coffee a day (which, by the way, I think is too much), try cutting down on sugar. Or ask your doctor about a sugar- free sweetener that he would approve for you. Or eliminate sweetener entirely. The same goes for cream in your coffee. You may not like the first few days of coffee without cream or sugar. But give it a chance. You're likely to end up wondering why you ever masked the wonderful flavour of good coffee with sugar or cream.

Many of the American Clintons were named after either George or DeWitt Clinton who were statesmen and soldiers during the period of the revolution. Brigadier General George Clinton fought unsuccessfully against General Sir Henry Clinton, of the British Forces, on the Hudson River in 1777. Curiously, Sir Henry Clinton's father was George, but he was Admiral George Clinton, Governor of Newfoundland and later New York, Our own Clinton was named after the Earl of Clinton from whose estate in Devonshire came William Rattenbury to settle on this site. Clinton, B.C. derives its name from the then Colonial Secretary in Queen Victoria's government, the fifth Duke of Newcastle, whose family name was Clinton. Clinton, New Zealand is on the South Island in the lignite mining area at the southern tip of the island.
