School Museum Much interest is being manifest ed in the collection of objects and specimens for the Grammar school museum which is being sponsored by the Fifth Grade Science class. National War Fund Drive The Grammar School is begin ning this week the National War Fund urive. Each teacher is in charge of the funds for her grade. The grade making the largest con tribution will be given a part hol iday. School Lunch The addition of milk to the menu makes the school lunch more nutritious.

Pep Meeting The cheer leaders are Wilma Fleming, Josephine Morgan, Bar bara Owings, Virginia Seigler and Willie Mae Floyd. We have had two very successful pep meetings. This enables those who cannot at tend games to feel their responsi bility toward encouraging our football team. • Pep meetings strengthen our school spirit, and give us a closer association with our class mates. The Panthers Play Ninety Six The football team lost to a heavy and experienced Ninety Six eleven Friday night 43-7. Ninety Six had a good pass at tack and scored all except two touchdowns on passes. The Panthers will play Lincoln- ton on the local field this week. Let’s come out and cheer our team! Beta Club The old members of our Beta Club gave a welcoming party for the new members last Monday night which really was an initiat ing party. The pledges were Gary Brown, Claude Huguley, Lois Ed wards, George Bonnette, and Rich ard Culbreath. Refreshments were served and I think every one had a wonderful time. Chapel On Monday, October 16, we had chapel. We began by singing “On ward Christian Soldiers.” Mr. Wel don then introduced our speaker. Rev. L. M. Kirkland, Baptist min ister from Plum Branch. As we had been having only local minis ters it was a surprise and a pleas ure also. We enjoyed his message and hope he will speak to us a- gain soon. Afterwards Mr. Wel don gave us a short talk on six- weeks tests. Mr. Kirkland then dis missed us with prayer. SMART.. * NEW .. . DOZENS OF STYLES ... LOVELY ■y *"V. • n • COLORS AND MATERIALS ...

C. \HOME By MAfiY £. DAGtf£ Every woman has a deep interest In the food she feeds her family. The nutritive value, the family’s likes and dislikes, the eye appeal, the taste appeal, and the cost, all factors in her food problem. It behooves all of us to study food values from many angles. The po tency of the nutritive content of cer tain foods in comparison with others determines the desirability of each particular food. A careful study of food values in ‘ relation to costs shows that'some types are much more economical than others. Some foods supply only one or two nutrients the body needs while others- aro. important sources of several. - For example flours, meals and cereals are very valuable in low cost diets because they furnish an inexpensive supply : of several elements—all the calo ries. phosphorus and iron, vitamin B and vitamin A in whole grain products. Milk is another economical source of several essential nutri ments. Calcium and phosphorus, prpteips of good quality, as well as vitamins A and G are abundant in milk. ’' -‘X • . . Speaking of cereals let me put in a plea for a good substantial break fast. This meal should contribute ' one-third of the day's food needs. The right breakfast makes the plan ning of the rest of the meals easier. If an adequate breakfast is eaten, foods which are among the /‘Basic 7” so essential for the day’s nour ishment are included in the diet. A breakfast of fruit or friiit juice, cereal with whole milk or cream, toast or rolls with butter or en riched margarine and a beverage provides four of the seven basic food needs. If eggs are added an other food group is "in the picture. To go back to the food problem, it’s up to the family to do their share by learning to like more foods. Thick, juicy steaks are few and far between but pot roasts can be deliciously savory and inviting. The food values of the edible por tion of the cheaper and coarser- fibered cuts are quite the same as those of prime roasts and steaks. The family can learn to eat more vegetables. Cabbage and all the good root vegetables of fall and win ter are splendid foods and easily available. If all the food sources are made the most of, the law of supply and demand can be kept in a more even balance. The housewife should plan menus to take advantage of market specials which usually are indica tive of a good supply. Use plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables in season. Dried fruits, too, are rich sources of minerals and some vitamins. When availa ble they can be used appetizingly in innumerable dishes. Baltimore, winner of the Interna* tional league pennant, had 84 vice tories and 68 losses. Peter Gray, one-armed outfielder on the Mem phis team, was voted the most val uable player in the Southern asso ciation . . . he was one of the main, reasons why the league’s attend ance passed the million mark for the first time since 1936. Ross Mc- Kelvery, a Canadian rugby football star, is a candidate for the back- field at Auburn. . The use of tracer bullets by California hunters has resulted in numerous forest fires, . . . the tracers have been brought by former servicemen . . . state game authorities warn that animals shot with these bullets soon become dangerously poisonous. Ohio State has a veteran line this fall ... all seven men are 4Fs . . . they average over 200 pounds. It looks as though there would be no changes in big league managers * ... an unusual situation at the end of a baseball season . . . Fred dy Fitzsimmons has been signed up for another year with the Phillies and Leo Durocher with the Dodgers . . . these were the only uncertain command posts . . . the attitude of the second division club owners seems to be that the pilots have done the best they could with in ferior material. No boxer over 40 or under 18 can be licensed in New York state. Bill Tilden used a 13% ounce racket, the lighest of any of the male stars, when he was winning champion-, ships and Davis cups . . . Helen Wills Moody was swinging a 15% ounce racket, and Don Budge a 16- ounce one. The 42 points the Green Bay Packers scored against the Chicago Bears was the highest total ever yielded by the Bears in a Na tional Football league game, 40 be ing the previous maximum. The Pirates have finished in the National League’s first division 36 times in 45 years. The New Or leans Pelicans have had seven managers in the last seven years, but Fresco Thompson, present pi lot, will run things again next sea son.
