While she believes the over-all civilian food supply / for 194 1 5 may Abe five to seven per cent less than last year, Miss Padgett predicts it will still be two to four per cent higher than the average pre-'war level during the years 19345-'1i939. "Prospective food supplies," she said, "are large enough to meet somewhat larger non-civilian re quirements than in 1944 and still maintain a higher level of civil ian consumption than in pre-war years." Wartime meat and sugar short ages, the nutritional expert point ed out, may be "a blessing in dis guise." Consumption of both foods, she explained, could drop consid erably and still be to the 'benefit of the nation's health. A basic rule for good nutrition, she observed, is that "one half of each person's !calorie intake should come from protective foods—milk, fruit and vegetables." The supply, of all these, she added, "will be more than adequate."

Mental Ilygenist Siresse Adolescence As Critical Adolescence is frequently "the most critical period" in the life of an individual, according to Dr. Robert H. Felix, chief of the mental hygiene division, United States Public Health Service, Washington, D. C. Addressing the Health Educa tion Workshop now in session at the College, Dr. Felix defined. adolescence as "the transition from a life governed by exter nal authority to one governed by internal authority." Parents, he said, often look with apprehension upon this per iod in their children's lives, fear ful they can't , cope' with the prdblems, while the adolescents themselves face "a most difficult" period of adjustment. • Adolescents, he pointed 1 out, frequently undergo painful. per iods of clumsiness and awkward ness because of their rapid phy sical growth—sometimes becom ing so sellconscious and self critical that they prefer to live as , much as possible in solitude. He advised parents to help children see their own "strong points" adding that competitive sports and athletics are one of the best ways to conquer self.. consciousness. Household chores and part time work outside the home, Dr. Felix said, often give the grow ing youngster a sense of"belong ing." He warned, however, against a heavy work schedule which would interfere with nor-• mal study, rest, and recreation. "In general," he concluded, "today's adolescents are a so phisticated, capable, level-headed lot."
