Chicago, Ill.—Asserting that the health and efficiency of the coming generation is seriously threatened by a prevailing condition of faulty putrl- tion, Miss Anna E.

It was found that ap- proximately 90 per cent of this group, picked at random, had developed nutritional anemia in varying degrees, More than half of the cases were markedly or very markedly anemic, Diet Out pf Balance. “Information secured in the survey indicated strongly that a diet out of balance rather than a lack of food was the basic cause of this condifon in the majority of these children.

According to Miss Boller, malnutri- tion In children may be manifested by various symptoms, Including marked overweight as well as marked under weight for height and age, an abnor mal color, fatigue posture, lack of en- durance, and [nattention at school Although the extent to which this con- dition may bring about permanent in- Jurious effects is dependent upon va- rious factors, it is her opinion that if long continued, serious results are (n- evitable, ideal!

Future plans were made by many persons on the basis of the In- come from these securities which they confidently thought were In- vulnerable, The depression has clearly dem- onstrated the futll- ity of expecting to find that snug feel. ing of absolute se- curity In material values, no matter how safe they seem Fortunes have been very short space of man of today may the poor man of tomorrow” has proven true. Those who were for- tunate in still having an income from their Investments have been wise If they reduced their expenses to equal income. This readjustment of living expenses may have been a very paln- ful process, but it certainly taught us an Important lesson—that necessities cost very little in comparison with the cost of luxuries, upon which the larger part of one's income had been spent. Another benefit which has come to us Is the opportunity of transferring the source of our sense from tangible and material values which reside within ~ at the time to be, wiped out in a time. “The rich become Us.

Leigh most productive and satisfying Invest. ment one can make is In one's self, The investment of health, education, courage, integrity, plus one's natural ability in a chosen field of work, pays dividends which no depression can ever take away. No one can change his past. He may have made grave mistakes which later proved to be errors in judgment. This past Is irrevocable, but not with. out its experience and lessons This experience may become the stepping stone upon which we rise to higher things. What we all need Is courage to forget the mistakes of the past, benefit by its experience, and begin all over again. Such an experience im- parts the spirit of adventure and makes iife worth the struggle. The sense of absolute security which makes effort and struggle unnecessary breeds ennui, satiety and unhappiness, The floss In material values may be very inconvenient, and In some cases seri ous, but not fatal. The loss of one's integrity and confidence in mental and spiritual resources means death. That person will safely “carry on” who has transferred the source of security to investments he has made in himself, TT $1913, Western Newspaper Union.
