Distinctive Table Top FF YOU have a coffee table with a marred top but »therwise good appearance, you tan make it like new without a lot of laborious refinishing. And at the same time you can ! give the table a distinctive feature that it never had — a marble pattern top with a sur face that takes abuse. The simple job is done by applying a new top in the form of a plastic-finished Marlite panel in one of five authentic marble patterns. Widely used for walls and ceilings, the ma terial is available at lumber yards. Saw a panel to fit, allowing ; a fraction of an inch for smoothing edges by planing and sanding. Bond the panel to the table with adhesive and leave weights on top until the ad hesive is set. Wax the edges or paint them to harmonize with the marble pattern and table finish. Your new table top, with its baked-on plastic finish over a tempered Masonite hardboard base, will defy attacks by bev erages, heat and wear. Damp cloth wiping will clean it.

Early risers know that picnics are more enjoyable if the surroundings are uncluttered with people—or things. Breakfast is an easy meal to take on a picnic. Ready-to-eat cereals are just right—no cooking is necessary—merely pack the cereal box in the picnic hamper. Tins breakfast takes just a few minutes to pack. MENU , Shredded Wheat with ■_ Fresh Sliced Peaches and Milk Pecan Rolls Butter Chocolate Milk „The peaches could be sliced and sugared at home. Additional sugar would not be necessary with the sweetened peaches. Pecan rolls are a favorite—butter probably would be unnecessary. Colorful plastic spoons, paper plates (except the cereal bowls) and gay bandannas for napkins add a festive note to the outdoor breakfast. Another way to vary the way you serve that all important meal— breakfast—is to serve it on trays that can be carried to the porch or patio. Doctors and dietitians agree that a basic breakfast of fruit, cereal, milk, bread and butter will provide one-fourth of the daily nutritional requirement. You and your family will feel better and work better, especially in the late morning hours, if you eat a basic breakfast the year round. Food Sense—Not Nonsense * A Twosome —Made For Each Other Folks agree—peaches and cream, ham and eggs, bread and butter are “made for each other.” A twosome, naturally made for each other in the realm of nutrition, combines plant and animal proteins. Scientists have found that these proteins pair off to provide the nation’s market basket with an abundance of quality protein. Research has disclosed that proteins are complex substances made up of many amino acids, of which eight are essential for man since they cannot be manufactured by the body. If a protein does not contain proper proportions of these essential amino acids it is said to be “in complete.” Cereal grains—plant foods—are called “incomplete” pro teins because each cereal is in short supply of one or two essential amino acids. Meats, fish, poultry, eggs, and milk products—animal foods —furnish “complete” proteins. The protein of beans, peas or nuts is almost as efficient as that of animal sources, too. Pairing off the “incomplete” proteins with the “complete” proteins or, supplementing one protein with another is a simple matter. The proteins of grains need only be combined with a small amount of ani mal protein to produce a food of excellent quality as when bread is made using milk to supplement the wheat flour protein-wise. Pairing off can be accomplished also by eating enriched or specialty breads with meals which feature one dish of meat, eggs or similar animal foods. Other examples of good pairs protean-wise are sandwiches made with eheese, meats or fish. That favorite of children—bread and butter and a glass of milk is a perfect “made for each other” combination of pro teins. Another classic pair is the breakfast bowl of cereal and milk. It is good thinking to include a variety of proteins in daily meals. These meals according to a foremost nutritionist, Dr. Henry C. Sher man, could well include a considerably larger amount of foods from grains and be supplemented with meat, milk or other animal foods for all-round good nutrition. : -■.— Joseph Makel of Calvert Distillers Company presents "best singer” trophy to Brock Peters (left) who appeared in “Carmen Jones.
