MINERAL AND VITAMIN RICHES FOR HEALTH
(See Recipes Below)
TOUR DEFENSE: HEALTH
Help yourself to your share of
health by giving your meals plenty
of health-giving foods and ward off
the lack of resistance to disease that
comes from not getting enough of
properly balanced foods.
Economy and health will be the
key words this season and through
out the country
you homemakers
will have to take
your part and
build the back
bone of the coun
try by feeding
your families food
that builds strong
bodies, steady
nerves and high
morale. Fortunately, good, health
building food is not just achieved
through more buying power, but
through wise buying. You can use
canned vegetables or low-priced
fresh vegetables, cheaper cuts of
meat, milk and canned fruits.
You’ve been hearing lots about vi
tamins, so check yourself on them:
Vitamin A is for resistance to in
fection, for growth and general well
being. You’ll need it for your eyes,
too, for poor vision and night blind
ness are common symptoms of the
body’s lack of this vitamin. You’ll
find it aplenty in milk, butter, vege
tables green and yellow, fruits and
eggs. It’s also the one vitamin
which you can store in the body.
Vitamin Bl, sometimes called thi
amin, is for appetite and good diges
tion. This vita
min’s for good
morale. If you’re
lazy, grouchy or
nervous look into
the matter. The
chances are that
you’ve been neg
lecting pork, liv-
er, meat, en
riched cereals and enriched bread
and bread flour, nuts, and peas.
Vitamin B2 is sometimes called
vitamin G also and also goes under
the name riboflavin. If your nails
have been brittle and grow slowly
and break off easily or your hair
and skin are generally in poor con
dition, add some of these good
sources of vitamin B2 to your diet:
milk, liver, eggs, cheese, lean meats
and leafy vegetables.
Gums bleeding? Teeth decay eas
ily? Perhaps you’re missing out on
vitamin C, for this is the vitamin
that goes right into your system and
helps you have good teeth and bones.
If your diet contains plenty of citrus
fruits (lemons, oranges, grapefruit),
tomatoes, fresh fruits and vegeta
bles, you won’t have trouble with
teeth, bones, or wounds not healing.
Vitamin D boosts vitamin C and
calcium into action, makes them
utilize the other vitamins and min
erals. Vitamin D isn’t easy to find
in foods, although eggs, salmon,
sardines and herring contain some
of it: Milk can be fortified with this
vitamin and then it is called “ir
radiated.” Most common way of
getting the vitamin is either through
milk of this type or by taking cod
liver oil in winter, sunbaths in the
summer, for it is formed in the skin
LYNN SAYS:
Here’s your guide for meal
planning for health:
Milk: % to 1 quart a day for
each child and nursing mothers.
1 pint a day for everyone else.
Vegetables: 1 or more servings
a day of the leafy green or yel
low vegetables; 1 serving of po
tatoes or sweet potatoes.
Fruits: 1 serving of tomatoes,
grapefruit, or oranges a day; 1
serving of another fruit.
Eggs: 1 a day or 4 to 5 a week.
Lean meat, fish, poultry: 1 or
more servings a day. About %
of a pound of meat or fish is the
day’s quota.
Cereals: 1 serving daily of en
riched cereal.
Bread and Butter: At every
meal.
Sweets: some sweets occasion
ally to satisfy the appetite. This
may be included in the dessert or
an occasional piece of candy.

That’s the round-up of vitamins.
Now, how about minerals?
You’ve probably heard that you
need calcium to build good bones
and teeth, but did
you know that S' —. *
you need it to
help your blood
to clot when you
have a wound
and that you need
it also to regulate
your muscle contraction? No food
keeps people from getting old in
definitely but if you’ve good calcium
deposits, you’ll at least postpone old
age for awhile. Milk and green
vegetables burst with calcium so use
them every day. Don’t forget the
salads: carrots, cabbage, and cel
ery aren’t too expensive in winter
and they’re calcium-rich.
Phosphorus works together with
calcium in building bones and
nerves. Milk, cereals, meat, cheese,
eggs, nuts—all these have a good
phosphorus content.
Iron’s a marvelous pep-you-upper.
Not only does it guard against lag
ging energy but also digestive dis
turbances and general irritability.
Iron goes to work and makes red,
red blood cells that are just about
the hardest working cells you’ll ever
find. The red blood cell shuttles
between your lungs and your 7,000-
mile-long circulatory system drop
ping off the oxygen and carrying
out the carbon dioxide.
You need lots of iron so don’t miss
a day on iron foods. That means
you’ll be eating plenty of liver, mo
lasses, oatmeal, dried apricots,
eggs, whole wheat, lean beef, cab
bage, oysters and raisins from now
on.
Iron by itself is apt to be a bit
lazy. It needs copper to make it
get to work, so be sure to have
prunes often, whole-grain cereals,
oatmeal, dried fruits, liver and oy
sters at some one of your three
meals.
Iodine spells power. It is released
to your system by the thyroid gland
which is near the Adam’s apple.
Sluggishness, mental and physical,
are the result of lack of iodine or thy
roid deficiency.
Seafood contains iodine as well
as garden vegetables. Salt has been
iodized to help out general deficien
cy, and cranberries if raised in low-
lying lands near the sea are a popu
lar source of iodine.
Magnesium balances calcium, and
as you’re getting your milk you’ll
be getting magnesium, too. Other
sources are green leafy vegetables.
That’s the line-up. You’ll notice
that many foods contain both or sev
eral kinds of essential minerals and
vitamins. Of course that should
make the job you have to do easier.

SIN AND ITS CONSEQUENCES
LESSON TEXT—Galatians 6:7, 8; I John
l:5-2:6..
GOLDEN TEXT—If we confess our sins,
he is faithful and just to forgive us our
sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteous
ness.—I John 1:9.
Sin is an appalling reality, hideous
and horrible in itself, and bearing
with it the gravest consequences
both in this life and in the life to
come. Man does not find it pleasant
to face that fact, and so he makes
light of sin and even may go so far
as to deny its existence. Obviously
such an expedient does nothing to
solve the difficulty or to meet the
gnawing distress of a heart facing
and fearing the judgment of God.
Far better to meet the reality of
it, admit its awfulness, and seek
God’s way of full deliverance. Sin,
which came into the world when
man listened to Satan and disobeyed
God in the Garden of Eden, has
gone on to mar and to mark all
mankind. We note that
I. Sin Brings Corruption (Gal. 6:
7, 8).
Seedtime is followed by harvest.
This is the law of nature, the law
of God. The farmer who sowed
wheat in the spring looked for wheat
wh^n the harvest time came. The
same principle holds in the spiritual
realm. Jusx as the one who sows
to the Spirit reaps eternal life, the
one who sows to the flesh reaps
corruption, and death.
A life of self-indulgence (which is
sowing to the flesh) brings moral
decay. The weakened will yields
to desire, and it “bringeth forth sin:
and sin, when it is finished, bringeth
forth death” (James 1:14, 15). This
death is spiritual, bringing separa
tion from God, a loss of fellowship
and communion with Him. Spiritu
al death as well as physical death
came upon mankind through Adam’s
sin.
H. Sin Loves Darkness (I John
1:5-7).
There is not a bit of darkness in
God. He is light. When Jesus
came into the world, He came as
the Light of the World. But “men
loved darkness rather than light, be
cause their deeds were evil. For
every one that doeth evil hateth the
light, neither cometh to the light,
lest his deeds should be reproved”
(John 3:17-21).
The corollary of that truth is that
a man who says he has fellowship
with God, but continues to walk in
darkness, brands himself a liar (v.
6). Compare Revelation 21:27-28 for
what God thinks of liars.
The light still shines, and the one „
who is walking in darkness has only
to step over into the light (v. 7)
where he will find fellowship with
all God’s people and know the
cleansing of the blood of the Son of
God.
III. Sin Is an Undeniable Fact
(I John 1:8-10).
It seems impossible that a man
who knows himself and knows the
life he lives would ever deny sin,
for it is one of the most evident of
all facts. Yet men have denied it,
or sought to explain it away, calling
it error, or a “fall upward,” or a
step in man’s development, or the
evidence of man’s self-conscious
ness and desire to learn.
There is no hope for a man as
long as he assumes such an atti
tude, for he not only lies himself,
but he makes God a liar. He denies
the truth of God’s Word about sin,
makes meaningless or wicked God’s
dealings with sin, and reveals that
God’s Word is not in him. Those
who make such statements declare
that they do not belong to God and
do not accept His Word. It is evi
dent that they ought never to be per
mitted to teach such things in the
church, or in the name of Chris
tianity.
IV. Sin Calls for a Saviour (I
John 2:1-6).
Christ the propitiation, the mercy-
seat covering for our sins, is the
only Saviour. He paid the price,
and made it possible for God to be
just and at the same time a justi-
fier of the ungodly. The sinner
needs such a Saviour.
Sin in the life of the believer also
calls for a Saviour, one who will
cleanse us (1:9) and who will in
His own blessed name plead our
cause “if we sin.” He is our Advo
cate (2:1) pleading His righteous
ness in our behalf when we do fall.
This does not mean that we may
then become indifferent or careless
about sin. If we say we know Him
and do not keep His commandments,
we lie about our professed relation
ship to Him. The mark of a true
child is a spirit of obedience.
God’s children prove their love
to Him by keeping His command
ments. Talking about our devo
tion to Him, giving our service for
Him, or sacrificing for His cause
mean nothing if we do not obey
Him. We only pile evidence upon
evidence of our untruthfulness by
making claims and doing things
which are negated by our disobedi*
ence.
