The less money there is to spend
for food, the more important is
a homemaker’s good food judg
ment to the health of her family.
As a help to the homemaker
operating on a limited budget Dr.
Hazel K. Stiebeling, food econ
omist of the U. S. Department of
Agriculture, and her co-workers
have developed a master low cost
diet plan. As a basis for this
plan. Dr. Stiebeling used the new
national yardstick for good nutri
tion, set up by a committee of
eminent nutritionists recently as
a new high aim for meal plan
ning.
The yardstick gives recommend
ed daily food allowances in terms
of necessary food values. The
master •tick into plan the translates language the of yard- the j j
homemaker, in terms of food |
groups.
Here, in brief, is the low-cost I
master diet plan;
Milk—3 to 4 cups daily for chil- j
dren; 2 to 3 cups for adults; 1
quart for every expectant moth
er; 1 1-2 quarts for a nursing
mother.
Fruits and vebetables—Potatoes
and sweet potatoes, about twice
a day. Dry beans, peas and pea
nuts, two to four times a week.
Tomatoes, citrus fruit, or other
vitamin C. rich food, five times
a week: every child under 4, how
ever, is allotted one serving a
day, and a nursing mother one to
two servings daily. Leafy, green
and yellow vegetables at least six
times a week.
Eggs—3 to 4 a week for every
one.
Cereal dish—Once a day, some
times twice.
Bread—In some form at every
meal.
Dessert—Once a day if desir
td.
A family of four—two moder- 1
ately grown-ups and two children
of school age—can get meals that
measure up to the yardstick of
good nutrition for $6.50 to $9 a
week, using this low-cost plant.
The difference on cost depends on
the selections made in different
food groups. But farm homemak
ers can get the same diets for
much less outlay of cash by a well
planned home-production and
home-canning.

TO MISTER GRUNT
Why it’s no disgrace to show your
face
When it’s all the face you’ve got;
If it is away, you know just why,
But maybe it ain’t sot I
Turn East, turn West, then take a
rest;
Keep moving you all about;
Work up a song as you skip along;
Smiles will come popping out!
Won’t give up dear, we need you
here,
You prove so much, you see;
You prove the worth of a new
birth;
From an old 7 ’unt to a glee,
So keep on guard in your back
yard
And live as your world goes by;
Just live with a smile from while
to while,
With a twinkle in each eye!
—Jim Pollyway.

Since the invasion, it has been
very hard for all of us in Nor

for the Nazis, either. They know
that they rule Norway only so
long as their machine guns are
kept trained on us.
In every town, they must have
many Nazi soldiers, for they
know that hundreds of Nor
wegians have arms hidden in
secret places and are only wait
ing for the day when they will
turn them upon the Germans.
But the Gestapo agents keep
very close watch. No one dares
talk in Norway nowadays. Not
even to your family or friends.
Every day many people are
arrested and questioned for
hours.
It is hard to fight back when
no one has enough to eat. The
Germans empty our shops. They
take what little food is avail
able and pay for it with their
printing-press money that is
good for nothing.

In this reenacted scene from the latest March of Time film,

Radios in Forests
All through the forests of
Norway, where it is almost im- _
possible for the Germans to find
us, many of our boys have set
up short wave radio transmit
ters. These are strong enough
to send messages to the Nor
wegian government in London.
And we always report to the
British whenever Nazi warships
enter or leave our harbors. Of
course, if we are caught, they
shoot us as spies. But before
they catch us, we get much im
portant information through to
our intelligence officers.
It was one of our boys who
sent the first message to the
British when the Nazi battle
ship BISMARCK was sighted
off Bergen.

Corporal Jones is the son of Mr.

6. E. Launches
Ad Campaign
Recognizing the value of Ameri
ca’s weekly newspapers as an ad
verting me dium, the General
Electric Company, of New York,
has launched an advertising cam
paign to acquaint the people of
America with the progress of in
dustry.
This campaign started in The
New s last week. With any num
ber of advertising mediums at
their disposal and with the expen
diture of large sums of money no
object, it is significant that Gen
eral Electric selected the weekly
newspapers to carry its mesjage.
In discussing the campaign,
Charles E. Wilson, president of
the company, said: “Recognizing
the importance of the typically
and truly American audience that
is reached by papers such as The
News, we want to acquaint your
readers with how American in
dustry is measuring up to the tra
ditions of American greatness.”
Almost every day we send
word to the R.A.F. and»tell them
the best places in Norway to
bomb.
Then at night our boys wait
to hear the bombers, and, when
they get near they signal to
the planes with blinker lights
and help them find their targets.
“It Is Dangerous ...”
The Nazis are having a great
deal of trouble to keep the rail
road lines open. The tracks oyer
which they move their supplies
cannot be guarded everywhere.
So in the country, Norwegian
boys have learned how to handle
wrenches and crowbars. It is
dangerous — but it’s worth tak
ing a chance. Anything is better
than living like slaves under
Nazis and Quislings.
When our men are ordered to
build fortifications for the Nazi
Army, they don’t mind, because
they can mix in too much sand
with the concrete. In a few
weeks the walls will crumble
and fall in on their Nazi heads.
Sometimes we even uncomfortable manage to
make the Nazis
down in Germany. When the
Gestapo is not around to check
up on shipments, our fish packers
season the dried codfish with a
dash of nice, tasty kerosene.
