FRIDAY, OCTOBER 11, 1940 THE NEWBERRY SUN PAGE FIVE H-D COLUMN By MISS ETHEL L. COUNTS “An army marche u n its stomach,” is an ancient militaiy proverb. Modern nutritionists agree, but think of more soldiers on the march. Food also is part of good stategy at home in peace times, they declare. The right food and enough of it, for every man, woman, and child builds strength for the preent and future. To quote Dr. Hazel K. Stiebeling, food economist in the Bureau of Home Econimocs of the United States De. partment of Agriculture, “Every one of us in choosing our daily food, every homemaker planning 'meals for her family, can play a definite part in national defense.

C. “By eating the foods needed for good nutrition we can help to make America strong, ready for whatever lies ahead. “A third of America’s families are below the safety line in nutrition,” Doctor Stiebeling states. “This is one of the hard facts that we must face and do somerthing about. This comes not entirely from lack of mon ey. It is true that millions of per eons do not have enough money to buy a good diet. But millions more who spend enough, do not buy the right food values. Those of us who live on farms have a cow and chickens to produce milk and eggs—.two important “protective” foods that take a good slice out of the food budget if you have to buy. Your garden is another step towards good nutrition. To make the most of the food val ues, serve fresh fruit for breakfast, and also as a time-saving dessert. Serve raw vegetables in salads, or cut them in narrow strips to make a crunchy relish. When you cook veg etables, remember that short cooking in a small amount of water cuts down the loss of vitamins and min erals. “America is seriously diet cq>v. scious, wants to abolish rickets, pell agra, and other diseases that come from faulty nutrition. But the Amer ican idea of diet is more than just to protect from disease. Americans want to be sure that the food they eat helps toward abounding good health.” MUCH TIMBER SOLD FOR RENT—Three room unfurnished apartment with two clothes closets, pantry, kitchenette, and bath. 1003 Caldwell street tf.

Black COUNTY TREASURER MEN OF MILITARY AGE MAY CONTINUE TO BUY HOMES WASHINGTON, D.C., Oct. 5.—Men of military age may continue to buy, build of modernize homes of their own under the Federal Housing Ad ministration’s program, and lending institutions may continue to advance money for this purpose, just as they did before passage of the Selective Draft Act, Administrator Stewart McDonald announced today. “There will be no discrimination by the FHA against men of military age,” Mr. McIXmald said, “and there should be none by the institutions lending FHA-insured funds.” The FHA policy was explained by Mr. McDonald at the annual con vention of the American Bankers Association at Atlantic City. Tele grams to the same effect were sent to the United States Savings and Loan League, the Mortgage Bankers Association of An.erica, the Invest ment Bankers Association, and the National Association of Mutual Sav ings Banks. Mr. McDonald said: “Inquiries from many members of your association indicate they will be interested in a statement of Federal Housing Ad ministration’s policy concerning in sured loans to citizens entering the military service. “Legislation has recently been en acted by Congress to protect the in terests of those called into military service. Needless to say the Federal Housing Administration is in complete accord with the objectives of such legislation and will follow an admin istrative policy which will preserve the rights of lending institutions un der their insurance contracts and at the same time enable them to extend to those who enter military service the protection to which they are right ly entitled.

The group gathered at the church at 6:30 in the evening and after drawing partners went in cars to Mrs. Hugh B. Senn’s home on Har per street for the first course of the dinner. The guests were invited into the dining room where a red and white color motif was carried out. A bowl of spider lilies centered the table. Tomato juice cocktails with crackers were served. The red and white cocktail napkins further em phasized the colors. The string of cars carrying the Presbyterian youths then trailed a- cross the city to the Armfield home, Gildercrest, for the second course. Red zinnias decorated the front of the home thrown ensuite for the occasion. Served buffet style in the dining room was a congealed fruit salad with saltines. For the main course the group stop ped at Mrs. Leon Nichols’ home on Main street where Mrs. Nichols, as sisted by Mrs. Warren Abrams, Mrs. William Hunter, and Miss Mary Mc Clure, invited callers in and placed them at two large tables where olates had been arranged containing baked spiced ham, creamed potatoes, and English peas. Also served were hot rolls and iced tea. The Nichols home was cleverly decorated in a Hal loween motif. In the wide hall and dining room, com stalks were piled in the comers. Moving ghosts in white occupied darkened spots. On the walls, mirrors, and tables were cut-out of witches and cats. Burning numpkin candles decorated the tab les covered in orange and black pa pers while orange and black stream ers crossed the ceiling and orange covers dimmed the lights. Orange candles were used on the front porch and throughout the house and a completely black “very -much-alive” cat added to the errien^ss of the sit uation by constantly roaming through the rooms during the dinner. At each place were attractive HaPoween nap kins and favors of cats and ghosts made of pipe stems with painted black faces. From the Nichols the crowd went to the Edgar Hart home on Cren shaw street and was there served deviPs food cake topped with white icing and blocked vanilla ice cream. The Hart home was beautiful for the occasion in its decorations of red roses and other early autumn flowers. The progressive dinner ended at the church where Mrs. F. D. Mower and Miss Fannie Mae Carwile served coffee and ritz crackers. Proir to the last course, the group enjoyed a number of games conducted by the Rev. C. A. Oalcote, pastor of the hostess church.

TRIED 7 YEARS TO RESTORE LIFE TO CORPSE Key West, Fla., Oct. 7.—An aged unemployed X-ray technician related to police today that he was driven by hopeless love to keep the corpse of a young matron in his bedroom for seven years while trying to restore her life. The man, Karl Tamzlei Van Gosel, 70, was charged with removing a body from its grave without permis sion. He was arrested yesterday at his home—part of a dirty, ramshackle warehouse — where the life-like body of the young woman lay in the bed, reconstructed and preserved in wax. “I tried many experiments to re store her to life,” Van Cosel told Deputy Sheriff Ray Elwood. “ still hope if I live long enough to bring her back.” When he first removed the body of 'the woman from its crypt more than seven years ago, Van Cosel said he slipped it secretly into the Key West Marine hospital, where he had been employed as an X-ray tech nician, and kept it there a week while he used available chemicals to restore decomposed portions. Then, hiding the corpse in an old airplane he had purchased, he had it carted to his makeshift home on the outskirts of this island com munity near the waterfront. Police reopened the crypt in which the young woman had been buried and found it empty. A medical exam iner said at least part of a human body remained in the now largely wax image that remained. Van Cosel, a native German with degrees from Leipzig university, told his story in a calm, well-educated voice, his English somewhat broken. Although looking illkempt when ar rested, he made an impressive figure after a change of clothing Tall and erect, he sported a well-trimmed van dyke beard. He described how he hoped to keep the outer tissues sculptured to its original likeness with beeswax and then reactive the inner cells through X-ray treatments.
