URGES USE OF EGGS IN SUMMER MEALS Now that eggs are cheap and plentiful, one or more a day may be used to advantage for every member of the family, says a well-known nutritionalist. Eggs, one of tbe eight foods recently listed a s surplus by the Secretary of Agriculture, are needed in every diet. •Eggs are one of the best of the body builders, added the expert They are, especially the yolks, an outstanding source of iron —a mineral in which many'diets are low. All the vitafin A and D calue of eggs is in the y o lk. The amount of either one present depends on the diet of the hen. Eggs also contain varying amounts of three other vitamins, and they are rich in calcium and phosphorus. Consumers looking for good egg s on the market will do well to place more emphasis on theway an egg has been handled than on its age or tbe color of its shell. An egg only 24 hours old that has been in a warm place all the time will be less fresh than an oilier egg that ha s been kept cool. Color of shell is no clue to either egg quality or food valueIn many stores, eggs graded by local, state or federal graders are available. These graders are not uniform yet from state to state, but more and more concerns are adopting those grades set up by the United States Department of Agriculture. When eggs are brought home, they should go into the refrigerator in the next to the coolest spot. It the shells are soiled, wipe them with a rough, dry cloth. But do not wash them, because water removes the “bloom” of the egg that form s a protective seal for the shell. Buffalo, Minneapolis, Omaha, Milwaukee, Portland, Ore., and Salt Lake City are among the larg'er cities had no deaths from typhoid fever during 1938. Bridgeport, Conn., with approximately 150,000 population, has had no typhoid fatality in five years. When a shipment of fish specimens from Pacific waters arrived at the Shedd Aquarium in Chicago, it appeared that they were about to die. After being placed in still water for a while, they revived, and scientists say they were only seasick from their long jour-

ONE of the fascinating features of photography, as a hobby, is that It fits in perfectly with almost any ither hobby or interest In particular, nowadays, outdoor enthusiasts ue finding that picture taking harnonizes admirably with such sports ?.s hunting, fishing, hiking, golf, and other open-aireactivities. More sports enthusiasts are takug pictures because modern cameras are so light, compact, and easy co carry. Cameras taking fairly large pictures have been reduced in bulk in recent years, while many fine iresent-day miniature cameras are so compactly built that they can be carried in a pocket at all times.

full, well-rounded picture record of all th© things, he does and sees. And such “notebook” pictures add great ly to the pleasure of other sports and hobbies. \ For example, the hiker or mourn tain climber may employ his camera for pictures of woodland plants and wild life —gradually building up a collection which is genuinely worth while. The hunter records his camps, his kills, the trails and waters he traverses— building up an enviable story of travel and outdoor life. The golf professional may use a home movie camera to make slow-motion pictures of his students, so that they can study their errors on the movie screen—or golfers may take movies of each other for the same purpose From these examples, it is easy to see how photography can enrich and broaden other hobbies. It fits in with any of them —and its great virtue is that pictures have lasting valued Therefore, by using the camera to record cur other hobbies and activities, we can put them in enduring form . • . and enjoy them over and over again. ‘ John van Guilder

A PERSHING BADGE An initial order for 65,000 badges for members of the American Legion who will attend the 21st annual convention in Chicago next September has just been placed, to be followed by additional orders as plans for the great event are perfected. The design of the new badge is a most attractive one, being a medallion of military bronze with a bust portrait of General John J. Pershing as its most prominent feature, and bearing the Legion emblem in the lower center, -accompanied by oak and laurel leaves. The top bar, from which the medallion is suspended by a ribbon, sh o w s the Chicago skyline. John Doctoroff, a widely-known Chicago artist, designed the barge after suggestions by a committee of Chicago Legionnaires. The badges will be made with a slot in tbe top, so that they may be worn as watchfobs if desired after the convention. General Pershing is expectejl to attend the national convention for the first time in ten years and will be given a tremendous ovation by what is expected to be thq largest gathering of Legionnaires since the organization was founded 21 year s ago.
