We have many problems making a living, making ends meet, conquiering. disease and grappling with the' sin of the world. What should lie.. do as trouble besets us on every hand? The lawyer spends' tWQ- thirds of his time adjusting legal troubles; the physician spends most of his time correcting physi- cal troubles; the minister spends much of his time dealing with mental, moral and spiritual trou- bles. As yet we have riot dis- covered a solution to the. prob- lems of suffering, the' speaker said. We have discovered eontinents, rivers, islands of the world; secrets of steam, power, electri- city, invented the telephone, radiophone, conquered land, sea and -air.

And according to nutritionists here and across the border, there's grave danger that histor-will prose it to have been one of the worst health hazards of the second half of the 20th century. Combine hours of inacti% it% such as sitting in front of the -TV set with nibbling on an* thing from potato chips to chocolates — and it's easy to understand w hc. so many people today pile on pounds while their energy and well-being diminish. There must he an answer to the -problem. if our national titness is to he preserved. So it bi comia the responsibility of ever' single person ° to see that. if we must snack. it will be on foods that •don't add unwanted pounds but do pro,. ide important nutrients. • First foods to fall casualty to a programme for controlling weight while',nar,'kint$. are candies._ potato chips, and the kind of snack that is low in nutrition - especially rhn,0 with wir e l f!t _iSld surr. • Crackers w ith cheese spreads, -or nuts. have the advantage -of provid- ing protein - but the+ 're so high in calories that. if you use then steadily . , ou're sure to see c our weight increasing. High on th;. ii;,t olfdesirabh slack -him fQOds are crisp raw vegetables of almost eckind. Celer. fingers of cucumbers. cuulifiowerettes. radishes. green pepper sticks -- these can he kept. in jars in the refrigerator for an' time eniorn ment. You'll find Mushrooms an e\cellent altcrnatke. So are such canned egetahle: as w a'. beans- asparagus and bean sprouts. Fruits. especially ra�c ones. are, e\cellent. It' you lend to put on weight, how e� er. he of grapes. of banana's or apples in quantity. and of sw eel cherries. Don't forget the satisfaction and enio' ment of a bowl -of bouillon. .1f on keep beef or chicken bouillon cubes 'or cordial on hand. you can have it read\ at a flick of the wrist. Black coffee, hot or -iced. is another good idea so is clear hot or iced tea. And of course. chilled tomato or fruit juice makes another snack that provides important food ‘ ali.re w ith few calories. Milk is one of our best snacks. so long as it is used within the limits of our total food needs. Make it skim rather than whole, if on want . to cut calories. Snacking on such foods as I suggest has advantages beyond keeping our weight and well-being in line. It keeps you from spoiling our appetite for regular meals. and discourages falling asleep in the middle of a favorite programme.
