Tourists Like Scenery, Facts Also Interest Foreign Travelers Interested In Data About United States .NEW YORK, UP —Andrew Hepburn not only believes in a seq-America-first plan but is promoting a know-American-first scheme. He got interested in spreading little-known facts about the United States when he started questioning tourists about the things they enjoyed most when they traveled.

Early Diet Os Strained Meat Benefits Premature Infants ..H - £ ?

By HERMAN H. BUNDESEN, M.D. STRAINED meats jnay be very important to a premature infant during the first few months of life. A premature infant is one born before the normal time of nine months. It is therefore smaller and weaker than the normal Infant. Usually, a premature infant weighs less than four or five pounds. Sometimes, when such a baby is very tiny, it is necessary to put it in an incubator, which supplies it with humidified air. Over the years, it has been found that premature infants are more susceptible to infections and diseases, and are less likely to survive than normal, full-term Infants. Recently, a study was conducted to determine the effects when premature babies were fed strained meats. In full-term Infants, the early feeding of strained meat helps form red blood cells and hemoglobin needed by 'the blood. It also has a tendency to promote the infant’s general well-being, ' Three Test Groups One group of premature babies was put on a diet of Strained meats/ a second group was fed the normal diet, and still another was breast-fed. i There was no difference in the number of illnesses or} the tendency toward Illness in these dis-

r SYNOPSIS Beautiful, calculating Eve Raymond seemed always to get what, she wanted. Now it was a New York divorce ,and a large money settlement from her husband. • i' ’ " CHAPTER TWO * AN HOUR after she got her check, in a hotel bedroom that was a confusion 6f packing, Eve lay across the bed propped on her elbows. She snapped an elastic band from a tube of newspaper clippings, smoothed them out and began going through them one by one. There was a picture of a graveeyed girl with, fair pigtails,' and the paragraph beneath it read: Nance Ireland, in her freshman year at Thurstonia High | School, has been announced the winner of the Craig JBris- ? son medal in art. The jiidges, j in awarding Miss Ireland the t prize, predict a brilliant future L for the young artist. Eve put it aside. It curled back into a tight cylinder as she picked up the next dipping. This was a husky young man in football sweater and helmet, taking a forward pass. Jeremy Ireland, the words read, star of yesterday's intercollegiate game. It, too, snapped back into a tube as Eve discarded it. She picked up the next, flattened it.\ It was Nance Ireland r again, the braids how twisted into cpils over her ears and held with ' ribbons. Thurstonia’s loveliest debutante . . . Another clipping announced the engagement of Miss Ireland to Doctor Jeremy Ireland. At that onp, and the final one—a picture -of a middle-aged man captioned by the query, Will Sam run for mayor _ next year?—Eve stared the longest, speculation deepening the frown, that brought \ her brows darkly down over her | Ayes. Then, smoothing them all into the original tube held by\ the rubber band, she dropped them into one of the half-packed bags on floor, and went to the telephone. “I want a train reservation,” she to the desk clerk, “for Thurstonia." She spelled it out for him. "The reservation,” she added, "is to be in the name of Miss Eve Bomley." “Yes, Mrs. Raymond.” She smiled. Eve Romley, she thought, amused again at recollection of the lawyer’s disapproval. He might have been interested to know there was a name that almost, had been legally hers. If . , . She stopped smiling, jumped up quickly and went into the bedroom to resume her packing, [ Nance Ireland, with her second

of the list, as he but right behind that came interest in agriculture, \industry and institutions that travelers spotted as they drove along., . - /‘People want to knowy. what crops are grown hi different areas and what is manufactured in the industrial plants they pass,” ex* plained the travel authority. “It (doesn’t need;to be a stry. Maybe a. family is driving past a tack, plant, or a pretzel factory. If the.company had a sign out that told what was made there, it would be much more interesting for the travelers. “How many people know that those fields, in Connecticut covered by cheesecloth are tobacco fields? Who is going to tell them?” Hepburn’s \entbuidasni for getting Americans acquainted with America is causing him all kinds of headaches. Four years ago he put out the first of his new series of travel books. It was a complete guide to the state of Florida. Re-

ferent groups. However, the prematures receiving meat showed a tendency to have a much higher blood count and amount of proteins during the first half-year. These are very important for body growth. z Not Much Difference By the time the babies were a year old, this difference was equalized, and there was practically no difference between the infants receiving the regulat formula and those breast-fed. The breast-fed infants, it was noticed, gained more in | both Weight and length than the babies who were receiving meat. Strained meats are thus helpful to the infant in building up his blood count and proteins during the first few months, but for general well-being it is best to keep him on breast milk. ‘ QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS I. j M. R.: My nine-year-old daughter is always complaining of a bitter taste in her mouth. What causes this, and what can be done for it? Answer; The presence of a bitter taste in the mouth may be due to an infection in the teeth, tonsils, nasal sinuses, or throat; also,l' to constipation or some otheir digestive disorder. A thorough physical examination by your physician is necessary to determine the exact cause; then proper treatment for the condition may be given.

cup of breakfast coffee, stood at the window as the two cars backed out of the garage. The first, a prewar sedan, came out with squeaks and rattles that had every garageman in ,town baffled. But Sam Ireland had been saying for years, ‘’All bark, no bite. Motor runs like a song.” The second was a new Convertible with the top down. Nance murmured, “It really is a little undignified for a doctor to drive an open car, don’t you think, Mother?” “I think it’s sensible, this weather,” Eleanor Ireland said from the breakfast table. j * Jeremy wind in his face.” __ ’ ■ ’ . . | The older woman hid a smile at the funny, half-shy, tender note that came into Nance’s voice when she said Jcre»ny. She thought contentedly, I wanted it like this. Sam, too. Now can stay a family. Or is that Selfish? Am I one of those dreadful women who considers no girl good enough for her son, who’d pick flaws in any man her daughter married? My daughter, she thought.! Yes, from the day she came to us, Nance has been our daughter. It’s difficult to remember, now, a time when she wasn’t ours. Nance came Over to tHdt table and poured herself another!cup of coffee. “My third,” she confessed. “It’s all those pickled herrings last night. I’m hlways thirsty as the desert in the morning, but I can’t resist them. It was a lovelyshower, Mother. 9 Potato mashers, >®gg beaters, flour sifters, and a i miraculous gadget 'that does everything for a vegetable but cook it!” She stopped smiling. “Xou were miles away, a moment Igo/’ she said gravely. “No, miles,” said Eleanor. “Years.” . “Fourteen — no, fifteen years,” Nance said. “The day you came to the Home and took me with you to be Jeremy’s sister.” ‘‘And our daughter,” Eleanor said; .. ■ “Why me I tvondcr? I was a scrawny little urchifl, wasn’t I?” “Maybe that’s why.” It. wasn’t, actually, but the true reason brought a surge \of unwelcome comparisons. . Nance was smiling again. “I’ve seen you say no to a pedigreed Siamese, - and then pick up some mangy, half-starved alley cat and bring it home, and love it.” v/ “The metaphor isn’t apt," Eleanor said indignantly. “I won’t have you talk of yourself in the same breath as an alley cat!” “Mother . . .n Nance spoke the word carefully, giving it a significance beyond the everyday, casual usage. “Mother, you don’t mind my marrying Jeremy ?”

cently he published his fourth in the series, 114 pages devoted to New York City. He thought they were as complete as travel guides could be, until he discovered how fascinated people were with facts as well as scenery. , “Just for fun I compiled a list of questions, like ‘what two places in this country have statues of Lincoln on horseback,* do they call the Brooklyn baseball team the Dodgers?’*’ Hepburn related. The answers to all questions on the list were in his travel books but they started him thinking about other questions. \(The Lin-:' coin statues are in Brooklyn,.N.Y., and Springfield, 111. The Dodgers used to be referred to as the “Trolley Dodgers.”) “Now, besides continuing the travel book series, I’d like to set up some sort of a travelers’ information service,” said Hepburn, staring speculatively over the tops of Manhattan office buildings from the 31st floor Office of Travel Enterprises, Inc. ■ . } “I got a letter the other day from a man in the south who wanted to know how to keep snakes from crawling under the tent at night.” ~ 1 ; That answer isfi’t in one of his travel books —yet. »• ' > ■' V ' '.

"Mind! Who lay awake nights hoping for it? I did, and Ram We’re glad, Nance. Jeremy, is lucky.” i . “You’re not—afraid t* e : * “Jeremy’s children will be mine, too.” “Now, Nance,” Eleanor said firmly, "you’re not getting into a dither over heredity, are you?” . "Not really. But your grandchildren—■* • ' “All we ever knew of your parents,” Eleanor said slowly, “was that they were healthy in mind and body. That’s all we ever needed to know, Nance. The rest—well, you’re you. I’m proud to have my son’s happiness in your hands, Nance.” ~r "Thank you.” The girl’s voice was not quite steady. “Jeremy said I was silly to worry about it. 1 guess I wanted to hear you say it.” "Well, now, let’s both forget it, shall we?. I. have to go to the dressmaker’s this morning. More fittings for me than if I were the bride! Now if I had a figure likp yours— n She sighed. “You’d never guess that when I was married Sam could span my waist with his hands, would you? I really should diet.” "No, don’t. You’re just right as you are.” Eleanor laughed. “Oh, well. Miss Hinkley is a genius at camouflaging bulges. She’s been my downfall. If I didn’t put so much faith in her clever jabots and concealing draperies, I’d have more courage to cope with lean lamb chops and carrot juice, I expect . . . We’ve finished, Hattie/’ she said, getting up from the table as a trim, grayhaired woman came into the breakfast room. “Are you working this morning, Nance?” Nance nodded. “Rolph telephoned yesterday from New York* The publishing date for Holiday Hill is being pushed forward. They want the illustrations from me by the end of the month.” "Impossible, dear.” Eleanor brushed aside publishers and contracts. “With all the trousseau teas and bridal showers and everything! Doesn’t Rolph know you’re being married?” \ Nance grimaced. “What’s a wedding to Rolph, compared to getting the illustrations done in time for his newest juvenile!” "Nothing is as important as a girl’s wedding day. Tefl him that!” "I already have. It’s like using your thumb to put a dint in concrete! Hattie, may I have just a sandwich and milk in’ the attic for lunch? I’U work right through to dinner." “Yes,'Miss Nance.” Be Cost«»uedJ>
