A fruit or tomato juice cocktail, a fairly substantial sal­ ad and fresh fruit makes a completely satisfying lunch or supper on warm days and. is an easy meal to prepare. To incorporate the necessary nour­ ishment into salads, Canadian fish plays a large and tasty role. Fish is rich in health-giving vitarpins, in body building mineral salts and because there is very little waste in preparing fish, it is an economical food as well. Here is a delightful jellied fish sal- ad which can be made with three dif- 1 ferent kinds of fish. It is a good basic I r.ecipe which allows for necessary sub- stituions so whichever fish you choose I (and plan to make it with each kind Before the summer is over), you will find it a popular addition to your stock of recipes.

Reports of foreign doctors in the Ethiopian Red Cross tell of 30,000 cases. There was no scurvy in the Italian army. What was the reason for this immun­ ity? A small precaution; .every sold­ ier in Mussolini’s army was given a lemon a day. Like the vaunted apple, a lemon a day kept the doctor away. Since the earliest times scurvy lias fre­ quently proved a scourge to explorers, to sailors, armies and to tjie civil pop­ ulation in areas where fresh food was not available. Sc-urvy is due to the diet being de­ ficient in Vitamin C. The victim of this affection feels tired, has pains in j the joints; the gums swell and bleed. Later on the skin becomes covered with petechiae, which are small spots due to effusion of blood. Haemorr­ hage follows and the person can no longer work. In the case of the sol­ dier he can no longer march. He is useless and an encumbrance. x The use of fresh vegetables and friuts prevents and cures scurvy. Jas. Cook, one of the immortal explorers and sailors of Great Britain, was a. pioneer among public health workers. He forced his crews at the rope’s end to drink soup made from wild veget­ ables. He set them a good example by his personal use of raw fruits, wild celery and other green stuff found in his extensive travels. Today the mother, zealous for the health of her baby, gives the infant orange and oilier fruit juices for milk' contains very little of Vitamin C. In consequence little is heard or seen of scurvy at the present time. It is one of the disappearing diseases. Delighted Young Father (proudly)—I paid the doctor another $10 today. That leaves one more instalment. Young Mother—Oh, thank good­ ness! Then the baby will be really ours.
