Stressing the importance of wom

CRECMULSION
For Coughs, Chest Colds, Bronchitis
We still have millions who are un
derfed and hungry, not necessarily
for more food, but for the protective
foods the new science of nutrition
tells us are essential. Information
on food values and on the effects of
good and of poor diets on health has
accumulated rapidly in the past 10
years, even in the past 2 years. It
is important for every one in the
field of nutrition, home economics,
and every day home making to brush
up on this new knowledge and to
take part in the crusade now under
way to make our people nutrition
conscious.”
