But Canadians can still learn a lot about salads, particularly how good they are, how convenient as warm-weather dish- es, how healthy as all-season servings. To spread the word, a national Salad Week will open July 27, sponsored by the Canad- ian Horticultural Council and supported by government departments and food indus- Almost invariably a salad is made up of, or at least contains a number of fresh foods â€" fruits, vegetables â€" and other un- processed items suoh as cheese, fish, meats, all of them extremely tasty, pleas- ant to look at and highly nutritious as well. The comparatively recent availability of frozen foods has reduced the troubles of the salad-maker, too, and enhanced the use of fresh foods through salads. Canadians are awakening to the fact that a salad is one of the finest dishes a housewife can serve. This is known from a collection of facts from various sources â€"â€" figures on food products, surveys of eat- ing habits, and So on. They do not want the Stars and Stripes waved in their faces, proud of their own flag though they are. Cana- dians who drag out the American flag on every possible occasion and some imposs- ible ones do so with the idea that they are being courteous to American visitors. This is not the case. The only time the American flag should be flown in this country is at some joint Canadian-Amen ican undertaking. To fly it at any other time is bad manners. American tourists want to see the Union Jack or the Canada ilan Ensign flying: in Canada, not their own ag. - Canadians should get away from the idea that Americans are flattered when When our American friends come to Canada they are visiting a foreign land. They want to have the feeling that this is a nation different from their own. THE LIBERAL, Richmond Hill, Thursday, July 26, 1951 ENJOY YOURSELF... ’Do-si-do’ your partner . . .

He who wants little always has enough. Friendship is the only cement that Will ever hold the world together. The man who is determined to make good has too little competition. tries interested in promoting the use of the products from Canada’s farms. During this campaign, hostesses, housewives and chefs wil have more information on salads at their fingertips than was ever available at one time before. A man should never be ashamed to own he has been in the wrong, which is but saying, in other words, that he is wiser today than he was yesterday. American tourists want to get to know Canada and Canadians. We must impress them with the fact that we are a courteous, fair dealing people, glad to welcome them to our country. we name our restaurants “The New York Beanery” or use some other psuedo-Amer- ican name for our tourist enterprises in the hope of inveiglirrg tourists to come in. Cheap imitations do not make an Ameri- can visitor feel at home. There are fine Canadian names which are seldom seen. Canadians perhaps should" get to know their own history better. We must do everything we can to build up a sound reputation for hospital- ity, to smooth the way for American tour- ists in search of Canada. We must see to it that American visitors get full value for the money they spend here. And most important, We must be ourselves. At various times the human bo- dy requires more thyroine, the iodine-containing substance secret- ed by the thyroid gland. If the supply is insufficient, the gland may enlarge in an elfort to make up the deficiency, a condition known as simple goitre. Iodized salt, as an everyday ingredient in food, supplies a small amount of iodine to make up the lack in the foods you eat. ‘ A VALUABLE ASSET Statistics show that the skill and experience of older workers make them a valuable part of Can- ada’s labor force. Contrary to popular opinion, workers over 40 are not more prone to accidents than younger people and at most jobs they produce as well or better than less experienced workers. Em- ployers who discriminate against workers because they are “over 40” don’t realize they are doing themselves an injury. Nutrition experts say that to have a wellâ€"balanced diet the av- erage person needs at least three servings of vegetables â€" one of potatoes and at least two of other vegetables â€" each day. Leafy, green or yellow vegetables, fre- quently served raw, are best, the experts say. They supply miner- als such as iron, calcium and phos- phorus to keep the body working smoothly. Our quotation today is a 11: from a. well-known hymn: “We test our likes by Thine." the reproach, s abuse they' get well established press attack, e crushed her so she could never lie. And ever) public position anonymous lett least, influenced by public opinion, and a great many pay too much attention to it. When General Mac- Arthur first returned to the United States from the east, he received for many weeks, an average of 30,000 letters a day, all praising him to the skies. A man would hardly be human if he did not be- come elated at this mail. Think of all the musicians, artists, ath- letes and politicians whose mail is simply enormous. On the other hand what about the reproach, savage criticism and I confess when I first saw the words “Rabbit Ears," I hardly knew what it meant, but it is often used and it is a striking way of re- ferring to the habit some players have of being too much influenced by criticsm from the grandstand. When fans yell and razz the play- er he will ignore them if he can. Some find it hard to do that and it is too bad tor them. To pay at- tention to abuse, as Jackie says, is nothing short of malady. Some players are easily rattled and made nervous and the fans are quick to notice this. They take an uncanny pleasure in watching the ones who turn to the stands as though they would like to answer back. “Some of my teammates may have resented me. If so, I didn’t blame them. They had problems enough playing ball without being part of a racial issue. I tried hard not to develop “rabbit ears,” a malady picked up by all athletes who are sensitive to abuse and criticism shouted from the fans. One of my top thrills was my opening game for Montreal at Jer- sey City. The pressure was on and I was very nervous. But dur- ing that contest I slapped our four hits, including a home run. I couldn’t have dreamed up a bet- ter start.” RABBIT EARS In an article contributed to the magazine, “Guideposts,” the fam. ous baseball star, Jackie Robin- son, used this expression. First, for those who don’t know of him; Jackie Robinson is a. baseball play- er, the first coloured youth to play professional baseball. Both be. cause of his athletic ability and also on account of his high moral character, he has attracted much attention. “To give me experience and seasoning, Mr. Rickey sent me the first year to play with the Mont. real Royals, a farm club for the Brooklyn organization. I was the cause of trouble from the start â€"â€" but we expected it. Pre-season exhibition games were cancelled because of “mixed athletes,” al- though the official reason was dif- ferent. When he accepted the position offered by Branch Rickey, former president of the Brooklyn Dodgers, Robinson knew there would be some resentment, even opposition. The whole racial question was raised. I quote his own words, on account of his interview with Mr. Rickey: “God is with us in this, Jackie,” Mr. Rickey said quietly. “You know your Bible. It’s good, sim- ple Christianity for us to face re- alities and to recognize what we’re up against. We can’t go out and preach and crusade ‘and bust our heads against a wall. We've got to fight out our problems together with tact and commonsense.” Sunday Afternoon By Dr. Archer Wallace VEGETABLES FOR HEALTH Everybody rybody is, to influenced by great many IODIZED SALT y is, to some extent at anced by public opinion, Lt many pay too much y it.
