I.KTTKK TO TIIK KDITOK The other night I read In the Banner that the American Legion is hav- I ing a membership drive. Two teams. ! it seems were organized and a contest started to secure the needed | number of members. I have been pondering this question ever since I read the article. ! It seems to me that anyone eligib'c I to become a Legionnaire would first! have to have been a soldier for his ; country and received a honorable dis-1 charge. Back in the World War days, how proud he was and we, as n nation, of him. He, a legionnaire, did something for himself, his family, his community, and country. Soldiering is not easy. It did then and still does require a real man t stand up and measure up to being a real soldier. Whether one went ovei seas or not, whether he went willingly or was drafted, as long as he went and endured the hardships, enjoyed the goodfellowship he found, made new friends, did his part, performet his duties and received his honorable discharge, he is, therefore, eligibl for membership in the American Legion. What an honor and privilege he has because his is a closed house. The general public is not invited 01 eligible to membership and there art thousands of men who would gladly trade places with him. Maybe he has changed, got a litth older, grown up and forgot a lot ot the past. Maybe each one has gone a different path, some more prosperous ir, worldly possessions than others Maybe a few think they are bette! now than their fellow comrade. Maybe some want to forget, but perhapall too many are just a little careless and do not really appreciate their position in the various communities in

which they live. Their’s is a rare privilege to belong to the great nation American Legion. A strong organization of our best men. our best specimen of manhood both then and now. Men of forty anil fifty years of age. Men that are already organized and understand taking and giving orders to such an :;tent»that if a crisis of any nature i ses in any community can be called on a minute’s notice to do their

duty.

Any community is proud and glad and feels a little safer to have the

,egion boys around.

So Membership in such an organi-

-.ation of the privileged few should I A BIBLE THOCtJHT FOR TOOA% id those eligible to Jo.n willing-j q 01 ] j U ,ijr PS the heart and not the y without hesitating, without so- | tongue: Not everyone that saith unto citing from anyone. i me ^ L, or( j Lord, .shall enter into the Here’s hoping that in our commun- | kingdom of heaven; but he that ty 100 per cent membership of every ■ lIoeth the wil , ()f my Filt her which is

MINERALS AND VITAMINS FOR BABY The first time the baby takes his strained vegetables is an event in most families. Though he may be only from three to six months of age or even less when the doctor advises his introduction to the easily digested strained foods, this seems like a big step toward grow-

ing up.

‘‘But how does it happen that babies nowadays seem to reach this stage more quickly than theii older brothers and sisters did?” mothers are asking. It is because medical science has discovered only in recent years how necessary to the baby’s diet the vitamins and minerals of these foods are. Though the baby has stored in his body a reserve of the minerals (which are not included in milk) to carry him through the time when his diet consists almost entirely of milk, sooner or later the supply runs out. Then, too, his vitamin demands increase about this time. Doctors have discovered, also, that if the cereals, vegetables and fruits that provide these important elements in the baby’s diet are strained, they are easily taken and digested by the very young baby. However, there are many cases in which the baby has reached the age of six months or later before the doctor recommends adding the strained foods to his diet. This is no reflection on the child’s development—perhaps he has not used up his supply of minerals as quickly or maybe his digestive system is not yet ready to take care of nonliquid foods. Babies differ greatly in this respect. Your doctor will toll you when he thinks it best for your baby to start taking strained

. foods.

Mothers have found that the earlier the baby is started on strained foods the less trouble they have later in having him enjoy all foods in general. Spoon feeding, too, ns well as self-feeding, are learned more quickly as a result of an early start on strained foods. Starting the baby so early on strained cereals, fruits and vegetables might be a problem to a very busy mother were it not for the fourteen different kinds of canned strained foods that can be purchased all ready to be heated and served to the baby. And not only do they save the mother the work of selecting good quality products and cooking and sieving them— they are prepared with special equipment under the careful supervision of scientists and thus contain a larger proportion of the food values found in the ’ fresh foods than most home-sieved baby foods. For example, the canned strained foods are cooked under light steam pressure in the absence of air in order to prevent the loss of the vitamins that would be destroyed

by contact with the air.

The choice of the first strained food given to the baby depends upon his individual needs and the doctor should decide this. For the sake of replenishing the baby’s iron supply as quickly as possible, beef and liver soup may be among the first given. Other strained foods rich in iron arc the pears and pineapple, strained prunes, the strained spinach and the strained tomatoes. Carrots, too, furnish a goodly supply of iron. Some doctors may start the baby on strained cereal before he is given any of

the other strained foods.

Start the baby on strained foods by giving him only a small quantity such as a teaspoonful diluted with water or milk—this accustoms the baby gradually to the consistency so that he accepts the new experience more easily. The amount should be increased by degrees, then, until the baby gets a full 4‘-j-ounce can at perhaps the age

of 10 month?
