A four -point breakfast
consists of bread and
cereals, milk and milk
products, fruits and
vegetables and meat and
meat alternates.
According to Cathy
Thomson, newly -
appointed nutritionist
with the Huron County
Health Unit in Goderich,
following the four -pont
system for three meals a
day is one way
h,omemakers can be
certain their families are
receiving proper
nutrition.
Shoppers should be
label readers, she added,
remembering ingredients
are listed from the most
to the least. Shoppers
should also be able to
identify—products in • the
four categories as well as
items that are non-
essential to good
nutrition.
Mrs. Thomsoh and
Public Health Nurse,
Rosemary Evans,
discussed nutrition with
18 ladies at the Ladies
Day Out group in
Goderich on October 11.
To mothers of pre-
school children, Mrs.
Thomson advised most of
the eating habits children
learn in the formative
years will stay with them
for life. Young children
are influenced not only by
the eating habits of their
parents but also by the
attitude of adults toward
food.
'Mothers often use food
as a pacifier or as a
reward or punishment.
For example a lollipop is
given to a 1tthisL.
is
mind off a skinned knee.
,Sweets are given as a
reward for being good or
are withheld as punish-
ment. Thus, the child
learns to favour the
sweets.
Mrs. Thomson also
advised mothers to give
children smaller portions
of food at a meal.. It. is
better for the child to
come' back for seconds
than to be forced to
"cleanim h,12 plate" and,
perhapS'etWoo rritietV
child nitist learn.to judge
his eating capacity:
Children need Snacks
because they cannoteat a
large amount of food at,a
time, but Mrs. Thomson
urged mothers to avoid
giving sweet snacks that
leadto calories and tooth
decay. Sugar is most
damaging in a sticky
state, such as candy.

the first of Many subjects
that will be studied
betweeu October and
May at Women's Day
Out, which is held each
Wednesday morning
from 9:30 to 11 p.m. in
MacKay Hall.
Babysitters are
provided for pre-
schoolers, but Mrs. Wray
emphasized all women in
Goderich and area are
welcome mothers of
teens, grandmothers,
single women, women off
all ages.
A speaker or a film is
scheduled once a month
on topics ranging from
dried flowers to interior
decorating and travel.
Last year a mini -
course, "Coping with
Children" was given by
Mr. John Penn of Family
and Childreri's Serviees.
Because of the success of
the course, Mrs. Wray
hopes a similar mini -
course will be available
this winter, perhaps on
marriage.
Outings are planned,
such as biking, skating, a
trip to the Carlow Craft
Fair and a shopping
spree before Christmas.
Mothers, children and
babysitters join in annual
excursions including a
picnic in May or June, a
sleigh ride in January or
February and a
Christmas party in
December.
A non-profit
organization, Women's
Day Out charges 75 cents'
each week which helps to
pay for coffee,
babysitters and rental of
the hall. To offset ex-
penses, a bake sale is
usually held during the
year.
Five years ago a LIP
Grant initiated the for-
mation of the Friendship
Circle from which
Wompo's _ Day_ Out
evolved.
Joanne Chambers, one
of the original members,
explains why she enjoys
the group: "It gives us a
chance to make friends
and learn things. and for
new people in town, it's a
chance to meet people."

on the insulation of your home and outside tem•
pero'ure.
But another important
point is design and many

any other just because of
its good looks.

How Insui-aid works
In winter. warm moisture inside your home passes through
walls and ceilings. condenses and makes insulation and ,
building materials wet. Wet insulation is less effective, and
more beat can escape from your home One coat of Instil -aid
on interior walls and ceilings creates a vapor harrier. This
barrier keeps irisulation.drier: reduces heat loss through walls
and ceilings up to 20fl . Independent labora! tests prove
It.
Insul-aid protects exterior paint, too
Insui-aid reduces the chance of moisture penetrating wood
siding which causes blistering and peeling It may also prevent,
rotting and deca‘ing wood in'your home
Insul-aiil goes on like any latex paint
Its latexeasy to apply on interior walls and ceilings that face
the cold outside."Iiipcoat with any good latex or enamel wall
paint. Get started today. even if only a room -at a time.
