Putnam Women

"My Dear," said a lady at Urn bridge table, while she was dummy, addressing her feminine opponent to her left, “Have you heard about parsley?" "Of course," her neighbor repi.ed nqpuljalaAtly. while gathering in a trick, "I've been using it for years as a garnish and a flavor." "Oh, that isn't what I mean-I mean, have you heard about vitamins? One little sprig of parsley is as r.ch in vitamins as a whole bushel of spinich.” It is quite true that parsley has in recent years been found to be exceed ingly rich ln< vitamin A and in vitamin C. Many new interest.ng discoveries about foods are constantly being made. Within the past few months The Journal of the Amtrican Medical Association has published an article, originating in the United States Army, which indicates that minced salads lose considerable pernentages of vitamins if they are prepared for in advance of using and these losses are larger if the m.ncing is done w.th a steel knif, chopper or grinder than if it is done with plastic grinder. A year or so ago it was announced that fruits on the sunny side of fruit trees contained snore vitamins than those in the shade; part of this series of observations indicated that fruits ygU^red on sunny days were^ richer'In Mitamins than those har- 1 vested in cloudy weather ami those J gathered toward the end of the day after consierable exposure to sunlight were richer than those gathered at dawn. That citrus fruit juice squeeze in advance loses in vitamin potency has long been recognized. Nor s there anything now about interest in foodstuffs and their qualities. Some 25 or 30 years ago there was widely exploited as a nerve tonic and important deficiency food, a product consisting simply of powdered cottage cheese. Most adults can remomber the queston, "Have you had your iron today?" and the little packages of raisins on drug-store counters, which enjoyed a wide sale on the basis of the fact that everybody needs iron and the fancy that raisins were particularly valuable because of their iron content. The nontributCons of iron attributed to spinaeh have been exceeded only by this vegetable's gritty ability to put sand in your system. The fact that both taisins aand spinach are far from the top of the list of foods rich In avail able iron has not ini the least impaired their reputation as magic foods. The ambition of many young men to enter the Air Forces has resulted in the eating of enormous qualities of carrots because carrots contain pro-vitamin A, which is essential to normal eyesight, as amply demonstrated in many animal feeding exj periments. Non-medical military per- ' sonnel, especially in the recruiting | branches, has been widely quoted as sending applicants with poor sight away, instructing them to eat quantities of carrots before they come back for re-exannination. In the days of my childhood I was frequently propagandized by my parents to eat

biead-crusts because they would make my hair curly. One of these ideas is just about as sensible as the

other.

The American people have been prone to eat too much sugar. Before sugar rationing, consumption in this county had risen to 120 pounds per person per year. Now it is necessarily much less, though the valu ^ of sugar coupons to which each per son is entitled by no means to tell the entire story of sugar consumption as long aas candy, honey and other sweets are not rationed. There came a dieteticai rea_t.on against sugar and this was concentrated in a drum fire of criticism against refined white sugar. This production, it wa? stated with perfect truth, contained neither minerals nor vitamins and therefore contributed nothing to the diet but flavor and energy. You were advised to cease the use of white sugar and use only browi sugar, syrup or mollasars. Granting that molasses provides 'minerals absent from white sugar, the furore about the cat ng of white sugar entirely missed the point, which is that no single food has any magic qualities. Molasses and brown sugar, by reason of their flavor and thei' contributions of certain minerals have a place in the diet but white sugar need not be excluded. The diet is to be judged on the basis of all foodstuffs consumed,” not any one food. It is as foolish to condemn sugar entirely as it is to eat .norderate quantities of some substances, like parsley, in which relatively high vitamin values have recently been discovered.

The pool table routine which W. C. Fields, one-time tramp juggler, dovs in Universal's all-star film, "Follow the Boys," coming Saturday midnite to the Voncastle Theatre, is the closest thing to his classic “Follies" skit that Bill has ever attempted on the screen. Tire bulbous-nosed comedian has been delighting himself and his audiences with variations of the pool table comedy act since 1900. The particular pool table he uses in "Follow the Boys’ is one h\? picked up in Birmingham, England, in 1903. It is an undersized table, by pool hall standards, and it has been abound the world with Bill's theatrical luggage twice.

Pat O'Brien and Barton MacLane, who have befen battling their way through dozens of motion pictures, but not against each other, hook up for the first time in a couple of swell brawls in "Secret Command," the Columbia film, produced by Phil L. Ryan for Ter men Productions, currently eo-staring Pat O Brier and Carole Landis at the Voncastle Theatre. The honors, however, are even. ' MoLane licks Pat in om> fight and i O'Brien trims Bart in th*> other.
