Need

and few today get a sufficient
amount of it for the greatest of
most abundant health.
The best and the cheapest source
of calcium is in dairy products.
The lower the income for food
the greater the need for more of
dairy products in the regular every
day diet of all of us.
Fresh fluid pasteurized milk
daily in some form should be used,
either as a beverage or in eooked
food.

It's a good thing for Party-line
Telephone Users to do
When party-line telephone users put them
selves in "the other fellow's shoes” it helps them
to see the need to share the line with others as
they would like others to share it with them; to
be considerate in the number of calls and the
length of conversations; to hang up carefully if
the line is in use, and to answer calls promptly.
