Protein !• "The Stuff of Life”
“If there were any one ‘secret of
life’ protein might be considered to
be at the heart of it, since protein
is the essential stuff of which all
living tissue is made.”
Protein is used for building tis
sues throughout the body. It makes
up the chief part of the muscles,
tissues, and organs of the inside, as
well as the skin, hair, and nails on
the outside.
Of course, no simple substance
could perform so many different
functions. So it is not surprising to
find that protein is really a number
of different substances. Each of
these proteins is made up of simple
materials, called the amino acids.
These amino acids are formed when
the proteins of food are digested;
and it is the amino acids that are
actually used to build body tissues
and fluids.
A food is like a whole sentence.
The words are taken apart in the
digestive system and reduced to
letters, or amino acids. The letters
or amino acids are carried by the
blood to all organs, all cells. Each
cell or organ takes the particular
letters it needs and rearranges them
into new words, or proteins, which
make new sentences.
When the cell takes these amino
acids, they make them into new pro
teins to be used for a number of
different purposes. Probably the
chief function of the proteins is to
build tissues. That is why there is
a special demand for proteins dur
ing childhood, when the body is
growing. But both children and
grown folks also need protein to re
pair old tissues, as it wears out.
Milk, cheese, eggs, meat, and fish
supply generous amount of complete
proteins. For children, who need a
good supply of proteins, milk is con
sidered the best source. Not only
does milk contain complete protein,
but it is also rich in carbohydrates,
fats, and certain needed minerals
and vitamins. The proteins of mus
cle meat do not rank as high as
those of eggs or milk, but meat or
gans are rich in proteins of high
nutritive value.
Nuts also contain protein. But
they are usually considered as source
of fat, rather than of protein.
Cooking protein foods the right
way is also important. Milk dishes,
cheese dishes, meats, and eggs all
need to be cooked at an even, mod
erate temperature. Slow cooking at
a moderate heat is the best way to
insure tender protein foods, and to
make the finished dishes as appetiz
ing as possible.
AN OFT-TOLD STORY
(Atlanta Constitution)
Once again the story of a sur
geon who saved a patient’s life by
sewing up a wounded heart makes
its way into the news reports. This
time it comes from New York, where
one of the metropolitan dailies de
scribed in detail the operation as
performed upon a woman victim of
an accidental revolver shot.
Asa matter of record, the oper
ation of sewing a wound in the
patient’s heart has been performed,
successfully, many times at Grady
Move Along, Get Going y
(WNV Swict)
hospital, in Atlanta. It is now quite
a number of years since the first
such operation was successful at
Grady and since then it has become,
while perhaps not u daily occurrence,
at least not uncommon in the emer
gency operation room.
The records at Grady will show
that about 50 per cent of the pa
tients in such cases have survived
and are today walking the streets
of the city in good health. Those
who have died have succumbed, not
to the operation itself, but to in
fection from the weapon which caus
ed the original injury.
It is, of course, a difficult and
delicate operation. It is, however,
by no means complicated and, given
a sufficiently trained and competent
surgeon, should be successful, bar
ring outside factors, nine times out
of ten.
It is a familiar story at Grady and
in Atlanta. But every now and
then the news wires re-carry the
yarn, conceiving it as something
sufficiently miraculous to be news
worthy, from one place or another.
The newest date line, as said, is New
York. About a year ago a London
hospital was the locale. Next time
it may be Hong Kong.
In the meantime, the internes and
surgeons at Grady go calmly on
their way, performing the operation
as a routine item of duty.
Athens Salesman Killed In Train-
Auto Collision
Cornelia, Ga., April 18.—H. T.
Harris, 45-year-old salesman for the
Talmadge Brothers’ Wholesae Gro
cery Company in Athens, was in
stantly killed this afternoon when
his automobile was struck by the fast
northbound Southern Railway Train
No. 38 at a crossing in Cornelia’s
business section.
Harris apparently failed to see the
approaching train because of a
freight train which obscured a view
of the tracks, witnesses said. He was
hurled clear of the car and his ma
chine was demolished.

Steeplechasing Old Sport
Steeplechasing got its name it
the early part of the last ccnturj
from the fact that a group of mount
ed sportsmen would pick out a din
tant church steeple and race to f
over the countryside, through gar
dens, over fences, ditches anc
farms just to sec who could ge
there first, ignoring all hazards
Later, when the number of race:
increased, certain formalities wen
observed. The jumps were chanrec
and stiffened, and dangers added

Gothic Architecture
Gothic architecture, briefly de
fined, is that in which structures
are built with ribs that intersect
and in which thrusts are stopped by
buttresses. Whereas Romanesque
depended on thick walls, Gothic
went to the other extreme, with
walls that were mere shells, and
with an active skeleton or bone
structure of stone, consisting of
piers, arches, and buttresses. The
common buttress and the flying
buttress, the last named were typ
ical of Gothic architecture, as was
the pointed arch.
Census Enumerator “Learns
AH” From Angry Woman

enumerator who called on one Santa
Rosa woman got more than he ex
pected. To her census sheet the
woman appended the following in
formation :
“I have a two-inch appendectomy
scar.
“I dye my hair and wear pad
ding.
“Once, before I came of age, I
shortchanged a store clerk and la
ter suffered from repentance.
“Before I was married I oecasion
ly ‘necked’—with prudence, of
course.
“During my schooling I was guil
ty of keeping a library book over
due.
“I own a Dachshund and have not
purchased a dog license.
“My lingerie is pink.
“I abhor census takers.”
End of Tuberculosis

years.
Dr. Cohen said the tuberculosis
mortality rate has been cut 75
per cent in the last 30 years. He
pointed out that the disease has
dropped to seventh place as a

J. FOSTER ECKLES
INSURANCE
Jefferson, Georgia
Born of the necessity for articulate leader
ship in the still stormy years that followed the
War Between the States; nurtured early on the
substantial, soul-filling ideals that burn in the
hearts of Atlanta and Georgia people; striding
through militant, clear-eyed youth into vigorous,
seasoned maturity as an ever-dependable cham
pion 'of its own good neighbors—The Atlanta
Constitution, from editor to copy-boy, always
has been and always will be as southern as a
platter of hot biscuit. As Georgia and the
South have moved forward, so has The Consti
tion. And—as this richly endowed region con
tinues its swift forward pace—this newspaper
will move along with it, as close to the head of
the procession as deep interest, complete sin
cerity, spirited enthusiasm and an unswerving
and unswervable devotion to its city and its
state and its people can ever place it. Such na
tures don’t change overnight, especially when
they have been growing stronger for as long as
71 years.
