Expectant Mother Should Be Extremely Careful of Health

BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON It is strange that a mother who watches her new' baby day and night with such solicitous tare should neglect him before he is bom. But in half the cases of child birth, this is precisely what mother> and intentionally, of course, but because they do not realize that it I is at this time that much of his future health storage may be ac- ! cumulated. An expectant mother can give her child a greater heritage of health if she takes care of herself. Her own health, digestion and frame of mind all contribute to the direct strength and well-being of the future citizen by affecting the nourishment supply that goes into his diminutive body. Should Live Normally When I say "care’’ I do not mean that she needs to be treated as an invalid, unless indeed she is one. but merely common-sense living and watchfulness of her own health and habits. Child-bearing is a natural function, not the abnormal thing we like to make it, and the body proceeds, after certain early adjustments, to carry on much as it did before. Therefore there is no reason except in unusual cases why the mother should not within reason go right on and live her life normally , and peacefully until time for the debut. The “care” comes under the head of regulation. Sleep, exercise, food, elimination, and a very definite effort toward happiness and a determined an effort not to worry. Rules to Observe The expectant mother may find a few general rules kelpfuL An excessive qiAtity of meat should bfc avoided. Jjak

-Your Child-

"Don’t forget to drink water j a lot of it. "Daily exercise in the fresh air; should become a regular habit. Don't take up new sports or athletics at this time, but a certain amount of any exercise one has been accustomed to may be continued in moderate degree, but the best plan would be to ask a doctor's advice about this. Walking is good—light housework is good—excessive fatigue should be avoided in everything “Fresh air is absolutely essential day and night. Ventilation should be given special attention so that at no time is the mother.to-be without pure air. The importance of this can not be over-emphasized. "Bathing every’ day is almost as important as the fresh air. It means more than just mere cleanliness. Without question open pores have a direct and stimulating effect on general health. "Sleep eight hours out of the twenty-four. A nap in the afternoon in excellent. No sleep should be disturbed if possible. If it is interrupted, then arrangements should be made to make up the quota at some other time. "Clothing and shoes should be very comfortable. "Regular elimination should perhaps have been put first. This is absolutely necessary to all concerned. Suggestions for its estab-' lishment should come from the doctor. Experimenting with various laxative drugs at home is a poor method and may be harmful. "A doctor must be engaged as early in the event as possible—l do . not say "should.” This is for a variety of reasons, although he may have little to do except keep t ack of uric conditions.” There is little doubt that many sick, puny babies do not get the right sort of nutrition during the

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

parental period and that their , nervous conditions are often due to ! lack of nourishment during the time when the small body w’as getting its growth. One thing I have not emphasized j is the mother’s own nerves, which, ! as we know', can be fatal to digesi tion at any time. She should try j to be above small irritations and j take the attitude that she is not going to allow things to worry her. The family should co-operate in helping her do this, as well as seeing that she gets some relief from the heavier work.

Family Menus

BY SISTER MARY NEA Service Writer One of the most satisfactory vegetables for home-canning is the “baby” beet. Beets are one of the few vegetables that do not lose their flavor and natural sweetness if more than an horn's time elapses between the gathering and use. They are less perishable than almost any summer vegetable and for that reason the woman who buvs her. vegetables for canning runs less risk of spoilage after canning. The perfect freshness of peas and beans, corn and tomatoes is such an important factor in their keeping qualities after canning that it seldom pays to try to can these veg etables unless one has one’s own ;garden. Oven Method Good Althougn winter beets are available, man, women find them in- '! convenient <*nd expensive to use on account of *he long cooking rej quired. The housekeeper who buys ; her fuel bv feet or units finds that j several hours spent in the cooking j of a vegetable is quite an item.. The oven-method of canning is oarticularlv easy for beets. If you nave a thermostatic controlled j oven, the ’■emulator is set to 275 de- ! grees F. and the oven heated while i packing tne vegetables, j An -oven thermometer can, of • course, be used, but frequent check-

Walker, 3151 North Capitol avenue. The wedding will take place at 4:30 Saturday, Aug. 16, at the Broadway Methodist Episcopal church. Announcement is made of the engagement of Miss Mary Jane Wilcox, daughter cf Mr. and Mrs. Russell A. Wilcox, 402 East Twenty-eighth street, to Dr. Alan L. Sparks, son of Mr. and Mrs. Guy L. Sparks, 4350 Central avenue. The wedding will take place in September. Mrs. Amor P. Ditter, Yakima, Wash., the former Margaret Mary Earhart, is spending the summer with her parents, Dr. and Mrs. F. S. Earhart, 3735 Guilford avenue. Her two children are here with her. Mrs. George Dana Chandler, before her marriage last Saturday was Miss Wilma Rankin Dunkle, daugher of Mr. and Mr. Will R.

ing is necessary to insure satisfac- j tory results. Small beets about the size of a walnut require no dicing or slicing j and are most attractive for serv- j ing. Larger ones should be cut in . quarters, diced or sliced ready for serving. More beets can be put in a can if thev are cut and it saves cans and storage space. Wash Beets Well Wash beets thoroughly, using a vegetable brush. Cut off tops, leaving about two inches of stem. Take care not to break the skin nor cut the straight tap root. Drop into a kettle of boiling water and j boil fifteen or twenty minutes. Dip into cold water to make easier to handle and slip off skins. Pack in hot sterilized jars, adding teaspoon salt, *-i teaspoon sugar and 1 teaspon lemon juice to a pint jar. Add enough boiling water to fill jars to within an inch of the top, half seal and place in pre-heated ioven. Leave for two hours, remove | from oven and completely seal. Invert for a few minutes, to be sure j the seal is perfect, then place upright and let stand until cool. Allow for Heat Circulation j As soon as a jar is filled, place ! it in the own and keep jars about

two inches apart to allow for circulation of heat around each jar. Two racks may be used if the oven is large enough. Work fast and dip beets in cold water only long enough to slip skins, not long enough to cool them. The oven method of canning has many advatages. There is no heavy lifting of water to fill a large container, as is necessary for the hot water bath. There is no overheated, steamfilled house during the processing period and there is less danger of bums in removing cans from a warm oven than from a boilerful of boiling water. The oven always is covenient and requires no storing from season to season. Elect New Officers Alpha Delta Tau sorority will meet Monday, July 28, at 7 at the Severin.

Away With Cities and Their Woes BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON Frankly, I am for the great open spaces. After a stay in two of our bigger and better cities, I return to the cows and the grass and the trees with a conscious joy. And 1 wonder more and more how men , can find happiness to say nothing of a good digestion, amid such crowds and such noises. It is easier now to understand tho psychology of the Chicago gang- ‘ ster. If I had to live in some 40 the sections of that vast beehive I iam quite certain that 1 inevitably | would become a gangster, or some- : thing equally restive and dangerous. The mere sight of another person, after you have looked upon j what seems to be about seventyi five millions a day, is enough to make you hate the race. The elbowI ing and shoving, the having your toes trod upon, the exhausts and honks from thousands of automob'lPS and trucks and busses, the halitosis of the crowds breathed upon you, the actual presence of such masses of creatures would result, it seems to me. in a total lack of sympathy for their feelings or their welfare. Not being a flower, it is difficult for civilized man to accustom himself to living in a crannied wall. Yet this is precisely what many millions of our population have to do these days. Miles upon miles of dingy three and four-story apartment houses, evil smelling and murky and gray, with mere slits for windows and only the sight of other such build- ' ings for tired eyes. Miles and miles :of overcrowded shops, mere holes in the wall, wncre no fresh air penetrates. It's a wonder that people who exist there are at fill docile. And after such sights and sour.cM and smells, the joy of the country wind upon your face, the beauty of fields green with young wheat, the grace of trees newly dressed for spring, and the sound of river waters in your ears! What blessedness. All the stately beauty of tall buildings can not overcome the haunting horror of those places in the cities where the poor dwell.
