Energy for these purposes came from tlve carbohydrates, fats and proteins, and grandmother learned quickly that the cooks who used plenty of butter, cream and eggs had the most * guests. ? Now, the minerals, calcium, phosphorus and iron are given attention hy modem cooks because they are likely to be low in the average diet. Calcium and phosphorus' form a large part of the bones and teeth. Some of the calcium, however, stays in the blood stream and is necessary for the proper functioning of the heart and the coagulation of the blood. Vitamins were unheard of^a few decades ago. Today, eight have been discovered, but vitamins, A, B?, C, D and G are the best known. Quantities of vitamins and minerals were thrown away with the liquid from cooked vegetables until nutritionists showed homemakers the importance of cooking foods to conserve these health-giving nutrients. Nutation specialists point out that scientists have discovered how certain foods in the diet can prevent or cure pellagra, rickets, nutritional anemia and other body disorders. These findings have been a great boon to society. A five-point diet worked out by the university specialists will furnish all the nutrients for the average person. It consists of the daily use of milk, tomatoes or citrus fruit, potatoes and green leafy vegetables, whole wheat bread and cereal, and eggs, meat, poultry or fish. Scientists have discovered that each pergon is a different problem in nutrition so each homemaker should appraise the physical fitness of all members of the family and plan the meals accordingly. Soldiers Seek Tattoo Marks for Identifications Tattoo artists in Canada are coming into their own as a result of the war. According to Montreal's famous tattoo artist, Professor Paul, business is booming as never before since the days of 1914 with the army, navy and air force leading the procession through those narrow and gaudily decorated front doors. They want tattoo marks as identifications. "Trouble now is," he said, "that there ain't the appreciation of art there used to be. I remember when a man could put in a couple of days doing a picture on a sailor's chest that was something to be proud of, but now it's Just initials and num_ bers. Military numbers, girls' phone numbers, family'* initials, girls7 irii-' tials. I'm telling yah, I'm gettin' writer's cramp. "Tain't only the men that's getting them," he went on. "The women too are cohiing in here to get their boy friends' initials on their arms and legs. "Of course," he added, "this idea isn't so good. Suppose a girl wants to change boy friends. Zingo! there's trouble. I've blotted out more initials by changing them into roses in the past six months than I I've done in the last 25 years. But then, I guess a girl's got a right ! to change her mind. Got one now who's making her mind up to bei come a tattooed lady. Trouble with | this is that a man gets about half | through with them and they change their minds again, and tell me, what | good's a half tattooed woman?" , Origin of 'Swing Low7 Of the origin of the spiritual, [ "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot," the Negro Year Book says: "A mother | and her babe had been sold from a Tennessee plantation to go down , into Mississippi, which was, to her, going to her death. To prevent the . separation from her child, she was | about to throw herself and babe into the Cumberland river. An old woman, seeing the mother's intentions, laid her hand upon the shoulder of the distressed mother and said, 'Wait, let de chariot of de Lord swing low and let me take de Lord's scroll and read it to you.' The mother was so impressed with the words of the old slave woman that she gave up her design and allowed herself to be sold into Mississippi, leaving her baby behind. The sortg; 'Swing Low, Sw6et Chariot' by degrees grew up, as this incident passed from mouth to mouth."

You tako iff again and in two hours more you oe In Juneau, end of the lino for he flying boats. Originally projected In 1932, It vasn't until defense expediency cut he strings of International compilesions that this "all American" route iver LI.. 3. land and international waer was put Into operation. , ? lTnt 11 this Inauguration slow travel >y boat through the tortuous inland mssago was the only method of translortatlon between Pacific coast cities ind Alaska. Hut closing In on this leriaJ gap marks only a stop-gap serdco to Alaska. When winter sets In marine flying vlll he Impractical as early as Ocober and flying boats will have to >e housed until spring. Next developnent in air schedule^ is the htgh-^ ipeed service from Seattle direct to Fairbanks, 1,700 miles distant. Four-engined supercharged landylane clippers, flying at high altludes, will hurtle this distance non(top over international waters or U. 3. territory. In all Alaska there isn't aifpert c?p?Me handling that sire :raft right now. In a few months, with the army's defense program unlerway, there may be. Whirling propeller blades have played an Important part In the development of AJaBka, singing a song )f mastery over some of the most ilffioult terrain In the world. In a land with less than 3,000 miles yf highways open only a part of the pear,'with one operating railroad and scattered travel by boat, everyone Hatches the challenge of transporta:lon with the airplane. Ever since Carl Hen Ellson brought Ills old "Jenny" here In 1932, the Jtory of Alaska's progress has been the saga of the airplane. The old slow, uncomfortable travel by dog team and boat is outmoded. Everyone travels by air dpring the winter months. Trappers, off to lonely trapllnes for a winter's yield of fur, charter a plane, often load dog team and sled aboard with traps and supplies, land a few hours later at headquarters camp or on a lake. Months later the same plane drops in with fresh supplies, loads aboard a catch of furs and is off to the next camp. Sportsmen, hungers, fishermen, miners. trappers, fur and mineral buyers, prospectors and businessmen charter a plane as nonchantly as the average resident of the states hires a taxi. Accomplishment of all this has not been easy. ? . While weather along the southeastern coast is mild life year-round, ~? winter sets in with a bang in the interior during October, the mercury starts a swift slide to the season's low of 80 or 70 degrees below sero, In April temperatures start their climb to a possible 90. A land of rugged mountains, dense forests, swampy morasses, Alaska knows no natural landing fields. Only flying boats or pontoon planes can set down on Its myraid lakes In summer. Ski-equipped ships conquer Ice and snow In winter. To provide year-round operations airports had to be hacked out of forests, stumps uprooted, and land smoothed or built up from tundra. But airports have been built?more than 100 of them In Alaska's 600,000 square miles. Many of them, however, are available In the summer months. Pan American Airways, through its [ Pacific Alaska Airways, operates 15 small airports, approximately the same number of weather and radio stations for Its 2125-mile schedules. Today there are more than 100 planes in the territory, virtually all of the small charter ships. Alaskans get around on their air- '' o lines, Last year nearly 20,000 passen- / , gers flew more than 2,000,000 miles In the territory. When you remember that the population is about 73,600? less than half of them wbttes?that's * something like a Hying record.
