BABY
By Lillian B. Storms

In spite of the abundance of food
! which we have in this country, of
■ j surpluses of food, of the fact that
I've have learned about what food
is good to eat and should be eaten,
and that school lunches are im
portant, still it was a shock to find
such a large proportion of our
young men rejected as unfit fori
j military service The armed servS
j ices know much of the poor physil
cal condition of our supposedly find
young man-power was due to poo*
nutrition, that is, poor food habits!
; Mothers of babies have been imfl
pressed with the importance oil
feeding their young hopefuls the*
right foods and m training their]
Voungsters so they will like a var
lety of foods — the right foods to i
develop sturdy bodies. Mothers1
have learned from their physicians 1
and others what these foods should
be, whole grain or enriched cer
eals. vegetables, fruits, milk and
eggs This is no one else’s job. it
is the job of the parents and it is 1
a three-times-8-day job for a good
tnany years.
It is the theory that good food
habits established in the first year
or two or three years will become
habitual. However, after infancy,
"hen the young child comes to the
family table, these good habits
sometimes are not maintained. ;
Johnny finds out his father and
mother don’t eat vegetables and, of 1
ourse, he wants to eat what they
lo. Or the family may think he 1
is grown-up enough so that what
he eats doesn’t need supervision.
! Carelessness in the selection of
food eaten by all of the family, or
In its attractive service, or in the
example set by the other members 1
pf the family is worse than
^thoughtless, it may be serious i
negligence. I

There is no children only grand
children. Mr. King says he is
preparing to raise chickens. Mrs.

at the present time. Mr. King has
been with the railroad for 25 years
and is still working with them.
Mr. Mote JJavie of 2806 Seward

place some time ago. Now that

Dear Sir:
You will perhaps remember a re
quest from this office made several
months ago for copies of your pub
lication.
At the time the request was made
numerous members of this organiza
tion had expressed the hope that the
Negro periodicals with which they
were familiar would be sent us.
Since that time we have received
several papers from you. Those issues
.were received with gratitude and the
girls were as the English say “thrilled
to bits” to get them.
I should like to express apprecia
tion for the entire group and ask that
you continue to send copies to us
whenever possible. News from home
is always morale building for over
seas troops.
Again may I thank you.
Respectfully yours, •
MARGARET E. BARNES.

ST. PHILLIP’S
EPISCOPAL CHURCH
The Reverend S. G. Sanchez deliv
ered a most unusual sermon upon the
old theme of the Prodigal Son on
Sunday last.
Father Sanchez regularly gives his
parishioners and the welcome visitors
rare gems of theology, giving his lis
teners much food for thought.
In this particular sermon Father
Sanchez showed that of the two sons,
the one who remained at home and
served his father without transgress
ing any Commandment, yet by his
attitude and anger, rather jealousy,
toward his brother, was, in fact, the
real prodigal; for the younger brother'
who had transgressed, repented and
returned home of his own will to beg
his father’s forgiveness.
He brought out the point that it is
a virtue to resist temptation but that
one who has genuinely repented is a
stronger character than one who has
never been tempted.
The Low Mass at 7:30 A. M. and
the sung Eucharist at eleven o’clock
on Sundays and the mid-week Mass
at nine o’clock on Thursday morn
ings are spiritual foods offered to allj
in the community.
St. Philip’s is making many im-;
provements to its property. The entire
front entrance has been replaced and
displays, for the first time, the name
of the Church. The roof of the
Church has been completely repaired.
A new pulpit, in memory of the late
Mrs. Grace Hutten, has been in
stalled. Six new memorials are to be
installed and dedicated in the fall.
The Church is to be painted on the
exterior and a program for a new

Elizabeth Davis Pittman,
Secretary-Reporter.
Omaha’s Metropolitan Utilities Dis
trict will mark its 25th anniversary
on July 1 by redeeming $704,000 in
Gas Department bonds, and leaving
a balance of only $436,000 remain
ing. The final payment of $436,000
will be made on July 1, 1950, and
will “close the books” on the original
debt of $5,000,000 acquired in 1920,
when the City of Omaha bonds in
that amount to purchase the old
Omaha Gas Company. Money to
make the final payment is on hand
awaiting the day when the bonds fall
due.
When the city acquired the gas
plant in 1920, gas cost Omaha domes
tic users $1.15 per thousand cubic
feet. Today, a 9% richer gas costs
Omaha homeowners only 50c per
thousand cubic feet. Eleven rate re
ductions have cut the cost of gas
more than half . . . and OMAHA
NOW HAS THE LOWEST MANU
FACTURED GAS RATE IN AMER
ICA.
While making these tremendous
rate reductions — estimated to have
saved consumers approximately $17,
000,000 in gas bills — the Utilities
District has DOUBLED THE PHY
SICAL SIZE AND VALUE OF THE
CAS SYSTEM. Omaha now owns a
gas plant worth more than ten mil
lion dollars.
The bonded debt—a general obli
gation of the city—has been retired
promptly at maturity. Since 1920, gas
services have grown from 32,184 to
53,023 and the number of miles of
service mains have increased from
330 to 534.
Use of gas in the home has ex
panded rapidly since 1920 . . . and
now includes not only gas cooking
but automatic gas water heating, au
tomatic gas refrigeration, automatic
gas home heating, and, more recently,
all-year gas air-conditioning.
Modernization, improvement and
extension of the manufacturing plant
and distribution system have gone
forward continuously since 1920 to
meet rising demands for gas by do
mestic and industrial users, according
to Mr. Walter S. Byrne, General
Manager of the Metropolitan Utilities
District.
War interrupted this program, he
added, “but it is being resumed as
conditions permit. A large number of
extension, improvement and replace
ment projects are scheduled for com
pletion during the next few years. It
is anticipated that this program can
be carried out without adding to
bonded indebtedness.
“The Utilities District has also
uade every effort to improve its gen
;ral service to customers through bet
:er gas appliances, home service help
for homemakers, free service for ap
proved gas appliances, courteous and
efficient handling of accounts, instal
lations and public contracts.”
