A person mentioned to his
dentist that he envied the white
teeth of a friend. The doctor
said there was no cause for en-
vy because white teeth are the
first to decay. Those with yel-
lowish or grayish teeth are lucky
— that is if they want a good
bite later in life.

Pineapple-Cherry Ham Loaves
Individual Pineapple-Cherry Ham Oatmeal Loaves are a novel
variation of the perennial favorite ham loaf. Rolled oats not only
speed up preparation time, but improve the flavor, texture, and
add protein, valuable B vitamins, essential minerals, and food
energy at low cost.
Last minute preparations can be minimized with this recipe. It
can be prepared ahead and frozen in the cooked or uncooked state.
Prepared cherry pie filling is used for the cherry sauce—merely
add a dash of cloves and heat before pouring over the ham loaves.
Suggested Buffet Menu: Hot vegetable juice with cereal snack
mix, pineapple-cherry ham oatmeal loaves, candied sweet potatoes,
broccoli, mixed relishes, bran muffins, sherbet, and cookies.

A Word to Wives (and their Husbands) ... a man’s chances
of dying early are 75 per cent greater if he is 50 pounds over
average weight, 10 per cent greater if lie’s 20 pounds overweight.
Graph illustrates findings of new weight and height study of
5 million policyholders by insurance actuaries’ society.
The newspapers are full of-------■—
the obituaries of young men
these days — men who “drop
off” without, warning in their
30s, 40s and 50s.
The cold facts are becoming
clear that men just don’t take
care of themselves. An impor-
tant underlying cause of early
deaths is overweight. And this
is a danger which men appar-
ently pay scant attention to.
That they don’t is indicated
by the newly published weight
and height study of the Society
of Actuaries, the national or-
ganization of insurance cost
and risk experts. This study of
nearly 5 million insurance pol-
icyholders shows that the aver-
age man is getting fatter,
younger, while women are stay-
ing slim longer. The 2,.&-million-
dollar probe also shows a direct
correlation between overweight
and the death rate.
For instance, men who are
20 pounds overweight have a
death rate about 10 per cent
higher than the average, and
those carrying 25 pounds of ex-
cess weight have a 25 per cent
higher death rate. The rise is
even more dramatic in men 50
pounds over average weight.
Their mortality rate is 75 per
cent greater than the average.
> The lowest death ratios, the
study shows, are consistently
associated with underweight.
This finding led the survey
chairman to observe that the
best weight ifl probably “some-
thing on the order of 20 pounds
below the average." If you are
tvmgly tipping the scales at
Wtet von thought to be normal
won mm JbMec than yon
should he. for long life.
What is the answer? The key,
doctors say, is reducing the
food intake. Weight gain occurs
because more calories are con-
sumed than are burned up in
daily activities. The trick is to
balance caloric intake with the
rate calories are burned up. The
only way to do this is to stop
eating so much and exercise
more. Your doctor can recom-
mend a diet and exercise pro-
gram to fit your needs. But
dieting is a tough therapy to
stick with, as any dieter will
tell you.
One new and painless way of
paring calorics, while insuring
balanced nutrition, is a recent-
ly developed beverage-food
called Metrecal. This prepara-
tion provides all necessary nut-
rients but contains only 900
calories in a day’s diet of four
glasses. And there’s no calorie-
counting.
Used as the sole food, it pro-
duces weight loss of about one-
half pound a day. It also can
he substituted for individual
meals to maintain a reduced
weight level. Doctors have re-
ported that it effectively eli-
minates the gnawing hunger
usually associated with low-
calorie diets.
However you go about it —
following a formal health main-
tenance program, using a qual-
ity weight-control preparation,
or just making up your mind
to push away from the taible—
the obituaries clearly warn that
something must toe done about
overweight^

The somewhat alarming word
is out that derby hats are
coming back!
They’ve been gone from the
American scene for so long that
two generations have grown up
without ever seeing one in, or
on, person.
Derbies seem to have origin-
ated in England, and the Eng-
lish — who call them “bowlers”
for reasons of their own —
clung to them through a couple
of wars and a depression,
through air raids and bombs.
A hardy breed, the English,
who pride themselves that
nothing — well, practically
nothing — fazes them. In Lon-
don. at least, they wear striped
pants and pearl-gray spats, as
well as derbies, in their daily
rounds. But, then, they also
carry tightly rolled umbrellas
at even the hint of a shower,
and sport canes for a stroll in
the sun.
In our land, however, no*
even the hardiest dudo or dandy
has been bold enough to ap-
pear in public wearing a derby
for a long, long time. They
show up once in a while ir.
musical plays of stage or
screen, on song and dance men.
just as they survived for year:-
on the vaudeville boards. West-
ern movies often depict derbieu
characters who are up to n<
good, but a hero in a “hard
hat” is almost unknown.
The word that derbies arc
coming back comes out of New
York — where else? Quite r
few already have appeared or
the streets there without caus-
ing a riot. And if derbies corns
can spats be far behind?
Elapsed time between the ini-
tial contemplation and final
execution of the task of clearing
out desk drawers is usually two
years.

One of the best social lubri-

Most of us are more certain of
what we don’t like than of what*
we do like.

Tips on Touring
..... By Carol Lane ——mn-
Women's Travel Authority
Righv For The Road
You’re a driver of quick wit and
high intelligence—so you never get
a ticket and you always avoid
accidents.
But some of your friends are not so
good. An important reason—stressed
by a Bureau of Public Hoads study—
is that they don’t suit their driving
to the road.
Everybody knows excessive sperd
is dangerous, and most drivers are
careful to avoid that hazard.
But many forget that “too slow”
is also hazardous—it actually causes
more accidents than speeding.
The Bureau of Public Hoads survey
shows that on high grade roads in
open country, more accidents occur
at 35 m.p.h. than at any other speed.
In terms of number of accidents, the
greatest menace is the slow poke.
How come? Modern roads and
modern cars are designed to permit
safe, comfortable driving at higher
speeds than were common a genera-
tion ago. This is progress, and’most
motorists have adjusted to it. But
some have not. Their caution can
confuse others.
Result: Some states are consider-
ing minimum speed limits to solve
the slow poke problem.
Don’t speed, but don't poke. Suit
your driving to the road, and driving
will be safer and more pleasant lor
everybody.
