A. -The body, just as the machine to which it is so often compared, requires the same food essentials to keep its condition up to par m summer as it does in winter. That is why the summer diet should in clude an adequate proportion of meat supplemented by vegetables, fruits, cereals and dairy products. Inez S. Willson, home eco nomists, declares that meat has many values in the year-round diet. Nutritionally speaking, it gives us protein, phosphorus, iron and certain essential vitamins. In addition, the aroma and appear ance of meat stimulates the ap petite, the different meat cuts lend variety to the meals and meat in the meal gives one the satisfied feeling of being well-fed. Miss Virginia Strom entertained the YWA on August 19th at Britt’s Spring. The meeting was called ! to order by the president and the j minutes of the last meeting read j by the secretary.
