THE DAILY NEWS Tuesday, August 28, 1945 Illness Steps Up Need for Foods To speed up convalescence and avoid the loss ol weight which so often accompanies illness, the Nutrition Division of the Department 0f JfationaUlealth and Welfare recommends feeding patients, fromjthe beginning of an illness, ai'dlet-based on Canada's Food Rulei, unless the doctor advises otherwise. "Actually.in many cases of illness theiTproteln and caloric needs 6T':patients soar higher than those of hard working laborers," state the nutrlonists.

Fever patients use up calories at a terrific rate these niust be supplied by the diet." The most practical way to increase the protein and calories; without making the diet bulky or difficult to digest, Is to supplement meals with egg-nogs and milkshakes, given In mid-morning, mid-afternoon, and at bedtime. The patient will be able to enjoy small amounts of food at frequent Intervals rather than three heavy meals. These are general suggestions, but any spe cific orders of the doctor should be carried out with care. Brazil, more than 3,275,000 sauare miles in size, occupies nearly half of the area of all South America. The Experts Say - - SYRUP FOR FRUIT Even the most skilled home canners sometime overestimate the amount of syrup they need for a certain lot of fruit. With sugar short in supply throughout the world, every ounce of sweetening Is precious and not a speck must be wasted. If the fruit has been simmered in the syrup the surplus syrup makes delicious sauce for desserts like cottage pudding and can also be usgd for sweetening and .flavoring fruit dishes. If 'it can,be used immediately, that's fine', but it moulds within a short time even when kept In the refrigerator. If, it .cannot be used! within a couple of .days, put in a clean hot sealer, adjusting the rubber ring and top and processing with the last batch of fruit. The sealer does not have tc be full, so even as little as part of ai cup. can toe saved for a des-sertjmonths hence. Clear syrup to which, fruit has not been added will keep without processing for a' reasonable length of time in the refrigerator. ! SPINNING OUT MEAT With meat rationing scheduled to start up 4galnin a matter of days to help' out Europeans faced with a'drastic shortage, smart housewives are making the family roast last longer and left-overs go further, Left-over meat takes to stretching especially well wheit an Interesting flavor like curry is used .to give piquancy. The Agriculture .Department Consumer Section, suggests curry patties. To make curry patties, com bine two cups of soft, stale whole wheat bread crumbs, two cups of ground cooked meat, two teaspoons of chopped onion, y2 teaspoons of curry powder, '2 cup of gravy, one egg and salt and pep- Melt two tablespoons fat in fry per to taste. Mix thoroughly, lng pan. Drop mixture Into hot pan by spoonfuls. Flatten slight ly and brown on both sides. This makes six servings. EAT MORE CEREALS Cana dians do not eat enough cereals and cereal foods, says the Nutri tlon Division. We grow our own cereal grains and they are one of the cheapest foods, yet we cheat ourselves by eating too little of them. They are Important because they contain thiamin, the B. vitamin needed for steady nerves and qulpk, accurate thinking. Persons who feel sluggish and listless may lack this vitamin. Tlamin Is best obtained from whole cracked cereals like crack ed wheat, whole wheat bread and oatmeal or rolled oats. The nutri tionists point out that the break fast cereals which require cook ing are better sources of thiamin than the prepared ones. The best way is to start the day with one of these. If cooking is not prolonged beyond 30 minutes the loss of all the B vitamins is insignificant. Certain prepared cereals such as the bran, shredded and nut varieties made of wheat or oats contain some thiamin, while cereals derived mainly from corn and rice contain little.

HELPING BRITISH BRIDES Wedding Dresses and Accessories Donated to British Service Women TORONTO, August 28 0) -Eighty-seven long, white, wed ding dresses went overseas last spring as a gift from Canada to British service women doing duty both in Britain and in foreign countries. The gowns, assembled at Tor onto headquarters, Imperial Od der Daughters of the Empire, were sent by members of the various chapters across Canada Together with' wedding veils, gloves, shoes, stockings, lingerie, pearl necklaces, prayer books and fine handkerchiefs, the dresses helped to overcome the severe clothing shortage and to fulfill many a young bride's ambition to be married in white. Some of the articles were new but most of them had been worn at weddings In the Dominion, The dresses were sent from Toronto for the Women's Auxill- I ary Air Force, Women's Royal Naval Service, and the Duchess ' of Northumberland's Comfort Fund for the Auxiliary Territorial Services, England. I Upon arrival In Britain, three costumes were immediately sent by air to Italy where they were emnusiasucauy received, ine cost of clothing in Italy was so high that mosquito netting had been a feature at most wedding ceremonies of British service wo- mgn there. Six others were posted for India where shortage of materials was most acute. One dress, veil and a pair of gloves of the outfits sent to Northern Ireland was worn by a member of the W.A.A.F. at her wedding to a service man In Belfast, June 13. The frocks had a busy but very happy life, travelling from town to town, country to country, being loaned over and over again to many a glowingly beautiful bride so that she might cast off her uniform on her wedding day and wear the traditional "white."
