EDITORIAL-
• The year is nigh spent. The
close is at hand. For the past eight
months we have been on a tour
through four consecutive gardens
called the gardens of knowledge.
The last mile stone is in sight and
for many of us the end of our tour
is at an end. The guide, on peeing
the last mile stone m the distance,
stop that we might have time to
take stock. Some of us have not
been as attentive as we should have
and we have missed some of the
most important things. Onward we
march taking our last lessors. We
look backward and we am there
are things which we regret'lWe have*
committed. Now is the time to
mend those mistakes. We can’t
undo the things we have done.but
we can make up for them by mak
ing these last moments count. The
guide has watched us as we journ
eyed alone through the gardens and
now he stands at the gate to let out
only those who are prepared to
meet more complicated tasks.
Soon our golden days will be at
an end, but the delightful friend
ship which we -here knew will re
main in our memory as an inspira
tion to rise to higher and nobler
standing .by the help of those
friends. Let iis show our courtesy
in these last hours and show our
guides that we have appreciated
what they have done for us. Let us
leave foot prints in the sand of
time so that the ones who follow
our path might seeing take heart
again and continue their tour. Let’s
be kind to those who are about to
take up the torch which now we
hold. For courtesy is the eye
which overlooks your friends brok
en gateway, but see^ the rose which
blossoms in his garden.
Lead on, O kind guide
Thru the coming years
May they love the garnet and black
And onward travel in spite of
fears.

Explains The Value
Of Meat In The Diet
According to Inez S. Wilson,
home economist, meat has assumed
a more important role in Jie hu
man diet! “Much of our knowl
edge of the true food value of meat
has been revealed in scientific re
search with proteins from differ
ent sources, from studies in blood
regeneration, and the very import
ant work with anemia,” says Miss
Willson.
Proteins from different sources
are not equally valuable to the hu
man body and vegetable proteins
are not as well utilized in nutri
tion as animal proteins, Miss Will-
son points out.
The best authorities advocate the
intelligent use of meat in the diet,,
she says, for the following reasons:
1. Our todies need protein daily.
2. Lean meat is chiefly protein.
3. Meat is a palatable food and
well digested.
4. Aside from protein, meat con
tains some vitamins and iron.
5. Meat is an important pellagra
preventing food.
6. Liver and muscle meat play an
important part in blood regenera
tion.
7. The extractives of meat furn
ish a pleasant stimulation to appe
tite and digestion.
“These simple direct statements
give ample evidence that it is right
and proper to include in the diet
meat, a food which is relished by
practically everyone,” Miss Willson
said. ✓
