Food that goes to 'Waste'

By ANNHANCOOK Extension Home Economist One out of every five Americans is overweight. Doctors tell us that the mortality rate for older people who are overweight is twice as high. The extra pounds put extra work on the heart. For every pound of fat your heart has to pump blood through two more miles of blood vessels. To put it bluntly, if you are overweight you are risking your life and your health. There are four basic steps to follow if, you decide to lose weight. First consult your doctor to see if he thinks you should lose weight, and how much you should lose. Also he can give you diet suggestions and moral support. Secondly set a goal. You need to be working toward something. This helps to give you motivation. The third step is where it gets difficult — retrain your eating habits. If you go on a crash diet and starve yourself for several weeks then go back to your old eating habits, you’ll just gain the weight back gradually. But if you retrain your eating habits you can lose weight and keep it off. Learn to eat smaller amounts of all foods and fewer high calorie snacks. Keep track of everything you eat and total up thecalories. Remember that well rounded meals with a variety of foods are important to supply your body with the proper nutrients. And lastly increase your amount of activity. Although exercise will not take pounds off it will tone up the muscles, increase circulation and just make you feel better. Dieting is never easy. But the

School corporations takes steps to conserve fuel oil

A 13 point plan drawn by Carl Hadley, director of buildings and grounds for the Lakeland Community School Corporation and Marion Lantz, business manager, was given to the school board last night. The cooperation of every staff member, students and parents is required in order to conserve energy. The-pkms include keeping the heatmg system off in all buildings untir forecasted high daily temperatures is 68 degrees. Hie heating systems shall not be left on during week ends until the temperature falls below 40. Normal day cycle of temperature controls shall be from 7 a.m. until 2:30 p.m. on week ends and after 2:30 p.m. the night cycle will be in effect. All room thermostats shall be met with health requirements and general activity of the room in mind. Classroom temperatures should normally not be in excess of 68 degrees. Lower temperature settings shall prevail in areas such as gyms and general activity centers. Corridor temperatures as well as the gym, etc., shall be set at 63 degrees. Temperature in all unused rooms and areas shall be set at 55 degrees. Lights shall be turned off in any area that will be vacant for 15 minutes or more. Classroom lights shall be turned off when rooms are not in use during lunch hours, recess periods, etc. Superintendent Don H. Arnold said he had attended a meeting in Indianapolis earlier in the day on the energy crisis. The school officials at the meeting were told the crisis is not temporary but will last for approximately five years. They were told to make plans for an emergency if necessary by extending the Christmas vacation, going to a four-day week or closing down completely. Arnold further commented that the state did not know the affect closing schools for a fuel conservation reason would have on distributions of state funds to schools that are not in session the required number of days. Discussions were also held on gas for the buses and fuel oil for the schools. All schools in the corporation operate on natural gas until the temperature drops to 15 degrees then they convert to oil with the exception of the Milford elementary school which bums oil only. Lantz said he doesn’t know what the oil situation will be after the first of the year. The schools use approximately 80,000 gallons of oil during the year. Storage tanks were filled this summer. There are 8,000 gallon tanks at both Milford buildings, North Webster and Wawasee and two 12 gallon tanks at Syracuse. The corporation also has 32,500 gallons to be delivered before the first of the year, however, at the present time there is no storage area available. Lantz is currently looking for a place to store the oil. Board member Phil Payne asked about investing in new storage tanks and was told Lantz had checked into same with 8,000 gallon tanks costing $1,290,10,000 gallon tanks costing $1,475, and 12,000 gallon tanks costing $1,765. However, he said, there is a 2*4 to three month delay in delivery. He said he would like to consider such a purchase in the spring. Lantz also told board members the school bus drivers were instructed to observe the requested 50 mile speed limit. Other Business In other business before the board Mary Jo Hartzler was recommended by superintendent Arnold for the first grade position at Syracuse. She began her duties on October 16 to fill the vacancy created by the death of Mrs. Brannock. The new teacher is a graduate of Goshen college and previously worked as a teacher aid at Fairfield. The request was granted. Requests were also approved for homebound teachers as follows: David Stookey for David Wall, North Webster; Noreta Mort for Kelly Heady at Syracuse; and Joan Folk for Elizabeth Noble at Milford. All are teachers who would have the students if they were able to attend school. Approval for final certificates of payment to Ira C. Mast and Son, Inc. for the vocational mechanics building for the amount of $11,631.75 plus interest

Approval was also given for a certificate of payment to Vic Trippel Plumbing and Heating, Inc. for boiler replacement at North Webster for the amount of $720. §oard members also approved the following classes and instructors for the community education classes: Aviation ground school, 19 students enrolled for six weeks with Mrs. Charlotte Kell as teacher; knitting and crocheting, 15 students enrolled for eight weeks with Mrs. Anita Davidson as teacher; ceramics, 12 enrolled for eight weeks with Mike Conley as teacher; personal typing, 13 students enrolled for eight weeks with Mrs. Harty Cesco as teacher; basic auto mechanics, 20 students enrolled for eight weeks with Tom Robinson and Lee Troyer as teachers; cake decorating, 21 enrolled with four weeks instruction by Orval Ralston; fun with antiques, 14 enrolled with four weeks instruction by Mrs. Dorothy Lehman; beginning bridge, 13 enrolled for four weeks with Charles Haffner as instructor; and tennis instruction, five enrolled with four weeks instruction by Don Scholer. The total enrollment is 132 with fees charged paying all costs. Business manager Marion Lantz reported to the board members on the fact that the federal program on milk had been re-instated so it would not be necessary to raise the price of milk in the school system. In fact, he said, they have decreased the price from seven and eight cents to five cents. Intent to Recognize Board members on a motion by Bill Little and second by Floyd Baker instructed president Dr. Robert A. Craig to sign a public notice of intent to recognize a school employee organization as exclusive representative of employees of the Lakeland Community School Corporation. This is being done in accordance with the acts of 1973 public law 217. The group to be organized is the Lakeland Community Educators Association as the exclusive representative of certificated employees in the following bargaining unit. Hie notices are being posted in the several buildings in the corporation. BPW has meeting on Tuesday The Syracuse-Wawasee Business and Professional Women met last night (Tuesday) at the Beacon with 28 members in attendance. The bake sale for Saturday, being held at the Pickwick Theater, was discussed. Hie club decided to hold their monthly meetings at The Beacon during the winter months due to the lack of places to hold meetings. The door prize was won by Mrs. Joseph Beghtel. Hostesses were Mrs. Maurice Koher, Mrs. Mary Van Dyke and Mrs. Vernon Beckman. Saddle club meets Monday The November 12 meeting of the 4-H Saddle club of Elkhart county was called to order and regular reports heard.

new option “reflects an exciting opportunity for young men and women to experience a valuable addition to their lives and at the same time render an important national service. “Our research indicates there are a good many young men and women in this country who would enlist in the volunteer army if they could arrange a two-year tour as an initial enlistment,” he said. “Many feel that three years is just too large a commitment. They regard two years as an ideal length of time in which to do some traveling and thinking and pick up some valuable learning.” For more information on the volunteer army’s new option, contact SFC Charles E. Parker, the army representative in this area, at 611 S. Buffalo St., Warsaw.
