Housing Committee of Navy Mother's Club to Continue An enviable record has been set by the housing committee of the Navy Mother's club in their past performance in regard to this all-important problem facing the thousands of service men over the entire nation. For the period from May 22 to July 6 of this year, applications were received by this committee for eighty-nine rooms with forty-five placements made in that time. From Sept. 9, 1943 to July 6, 1944, applications from 469 couples or 938 individuals were received with the committee successful in placing 230 couples or 460 individuals. This amount does not include the number of applications including children, which was 140 and of which 90 were placed with their parents. Some of this number were in Anaheim for several months while others were here for longer periods. The placing of the families of the men in service have meant a great deal to the service men, since a great many of them are now in foreign duty and a great many who will not return to this country when the war is over, having made the supreme sacrifice to his country. This report, which is for a ten months period, shows an average placement per month of 23 couples at an approximate cost of twenty-six cents per couple or thirteen cents per contact, a fine showing for the cost per capita. The work will continue in the future along with the other phases of this fine organization, such as their work in the hospitals, furnishing the small needs to the convalescing men and the services they are able to render such as County Past Presidents Guess Of VFW Auxiliary The home of Mrs. L.

If you own a business in Anaheim you can't afford not to advertise in The Gazette. One MOTHER to ANOTHER If you own a business in Anaheim you can't afford not to advertise in The Gazette. One MOTHER to ANOTHER Mrs. Dawn Gerber I believe that every food that makes up baby's diet needs study, but pure milk is the most important single food for infants. But even the milk diet must be reinforced after the first weeks if bones, teeth, muscles, etc., are to get the food essentials they need to bring about healthy development. Good nutrition is the best available aid for protecting growth and health of your baby. Fruit juices, strained vegetables and fruit, and hard bread crusts or zwieback are often included as supplementary feeding by the time baby has reached 5 or 6 months of age. These foods supply mineral salts, vitamins and other nutritional essentials that are lacking in adequate amounts — even in whole milk. They are often unsuitable for the baby, however, in the form in which they are usually served to adults. Baby needs the food but his digestive system is not sufficiently well developed to take care of lumps and coarse fiber. I have found that improperly prepared food will upset him — or at best do him very little good — because he cannot assimilate it. Prepared, strained oatmeal and cereal food provide one answer to feeding your baby, with no possible upset to his digestive system. You can get them that come all ready to serve, and some have Iron and Vitamins of the "B" Complex as an added protection to baby's health and growth.
