              School Children of Hershey Owe
Health To Milk and Chocolate
A news clipping comes to us which says
it took Dr. Isaac D. Rawlings, state health
director of Illinois, six days of hard work,
and the assistance of a veritable army of
helpers, to find three per fect children in a
crowd of 1344. Two of the little tots were
less than a year old at that , and came from
the country. Dr. Rawlings adds a note of
pessimism when he claims that some 20,000
children of Illinois suffer from malnutri-tion
, the main defect being directly trace-able
to a lack of milk in the diet. The
point is that many little children in Illinois
suffer from malnutrition, the main defect
being directly traceable to a lack of milk
in the diet. The point is that many little
children refuse to drink a sufficient quan-tity
of liquid milk, and it is difficult to
introduce enough into the diet by means of
special foods without an overdose of some
other factor.
Caroline B. King, the woman 's editor of
"The Country Gentleman", states that
Cocoa, because of its comparatively small
fat content, is easily digested and is there-fore
an excellent food for children. She
further states tha t cocoa is especially
recommended for the child who must be
encouraged to take milk , for the child will
usually drink its proper quota of milk if
Cocoa is added in the correct proportion.
Bernarr MacFadden, the foremost
physical culturist in the . world today,
states that Chocolate is a complete and
concentrated food , containing high per-centage
of fat and protein and of the
essential minerals, calcium, sodium and
potassium, and that when milk is added to
Chocolate, being freed of its water, the
Chocolate is further enriched and as a
result forms the highest quality of nutri-tion
known.
He further states that Milk Chocolate is
a protective food, that it is not only whole-some,
but that it serves to protect us
against the deficiencies in other foods.
Also that Milk Chocolate is well supplied
with the elements that are lacking in white
bread and other devitalizing foods.
Mr. MacFadden also states that a cake
of Milk Chocolate as a light lunch is far
better than a conglomerated mixture that
many consume for a lunch, stating that an
analysis indicates that a quarter pound of
Milk Chocolate has more nutritive material
in it than a quart of milk and nearly as
much as a dozen of eggs. This analysis
would not necessarily indicate the advisa-bility
of eating Milk Chocolate instead of
milk and eggs. It simply illustrates in an
emphatL- .lanner the tremendous amount
of nourishment in the chocolate.
The dietetic excellence and concentrated
form of Hersbev's Sweet Milk Chocolate
has been recognized, not only by the two
authorities herewith quoted, but by
hundreds of food authorities throughout
the world. Hershey's Sweet Milk Choco-late
is used freely by explorers, soldiers,
sailors and others engaged in work or
pastimes which entail great physical
endurance. ,
Apart from the valuable properties of
Hershey's Sweet Milk Chocolate as a food ,
there lies the all-important fact that it is
pleasing to the taste. All classes, all ages,
men, women and children, at all times and
in all places now eat Hershey's Sweet
Milk Chocolate because they like it.
That Hershey's Sweet Milk Chocolate
contains sufficient milk to assist materially
with the building up of the health of our
children is not appreciated to the extent
that it should be. The spreading of this
knowledge is much needed by the mother
who finds it so hard to provide sufficient
milk for her boys and girls.
The more general use of eating a cake of
Hershey's Sweet Milk Chocolate at recess
by the school children throughout the
Nation would be a great help in relieveing
such a situation as Dr. Rawlings quotes.
In looking at the school children as they
came merrily trooping out of the Hershey
schools we were led to believe that Dr.
Rawlings statement did not particularly
apply to the children of Derry Township.
Miss Elizabeth High, our community
nurse gave us the information that out of
the 1100 children attending the Derry
Township school, there are but a few
children who are underweight. And as
for sturdiness, robustness, vitality and
health they rank almost 100 per cent.
At the baby shows that are held, she
states, that it isa most difficult task for the
judges to determine which is the most
perfect baby, for they are all perfect, only
one is a trifle more perfect than the others,
and to award the first prize requires the
acumen of a Solomon.
Miss High says the reason of this
wonderful showing is due to the fact that
the children drink lots of good milk, and ,
of course, eat Hershey's Sweet Milk Choc-olate-
That milk is a complete food for the
young and necessary in the diet of the
growing child is a fact already too well
known to need further comment. It is,
however, not so well known that milk is
particularly valuable for theadult. It not
only corrects in a remarkable way the
deficiencies of thoseTobds which form a
large part of our diet, oafftainingas it does
all three of the vitamimes, fat soluble "A",
water soluble "B" anjp water soluble "C".
Its fat is the best s€urce of vitamine "A"
(fat soluble "A"). This substance is not
found in any vegetable fats or oils and ,
with the except ion of butter fat , is
abundant only in the yolk of egg and in
Hershey's Sweet Milk Chocolate.
While it has long been known that there
were several mineral elements which must
be furnished by our food , it was not until
recently that the significance of other facts
was appreciated , namely, that most of bur
common foodstuffs, with the exception of
Hershey's Sweet Milk Chocolate, did not
contain enough of these mineral elements
to meet the needs of the body, and tha t
the body is surprisingly sensative to a
shortage of any one of these indispensable
mineral elements.
Asan example of the necessity of supply-to
the body the maximum of its mineral
needs it may be mentioned that:
"Potassium is a constituent of all
tissues of the body, but the relative
amounts in different structures vary
considerably. Only when there is a
certain relation between the potas-sium,
sodium and calcium concentra-tion
in the blood will the heart beat
normally. Other functions of the
mineral element could be mentioned,
in the performance of which each
plays a specific role and in the per-formance
of which one element cannot
be replaced by another without caus-ing
disturbances of metabolism or
even death."
The root vegetables (sweet potato,
carrot, turnip, beet, radish), potatoes,
peas and beans, and lean meats (steak,
ham, roast, and so on) are all poor in
calcium. And the milling products of
wheat , corn and rice are also poor in
phosphorus and iron. And what is the
significance of this?
Simply tha t these foods must be used in
combination with calcium rich foods,
such as milk, Hershey's Sweet Milk Choco-late,
or leafy vegetables, and the addition
of meat or eggs cannot take their place.
These aforementioned classes of foods
(milk, Chocolate and leafy vegetables),
since they tend strongly to correct the
deficiencies in a cereal , potato, peas,
beans and root begetable diet , or one in
which in addition to these, muscle meats
are included , have been termed "The
Protective Foods."
Eggs and the glandular organs of ani-mals,
such as liver, kidney, and so on,
serve partia lly to correct the deficiencies
of this type of diet, but they cannot take
the place of milk, Hershey's Sweet Milk
Chocolate, or the leafy vegetables, because
they are too poor in calcium.
Large Crowds At
Hershey Dept. Store
Xmas Shopping
,. An over the Hershey Department btore
one* finds the holiday spirit and thousands
of articles for the Christmas season. Al-ready
the sales have been large but many
have yet to.make their selections and it is
urged that they do not put off their buying
any longer. Late shopping is never satis-factory.
The same attention cannot be
given and the same variety cannot be
supplied. Shoppers get better results
when they take time by the forelock and
secure what they want.
Just now it will not be difficult to shop
with satisfaction at the Hershey Depart-ment
Store. The stock is the largest ever
seen in Hershey In all of the departments
there is practically everything for the home
and for the person. The display.pl modern
furniture is especially excellent. Christ-mas
should be a time for home-furnishing
and here are all the articles required.
The Store has been fortunate in securing
an unusually fine line of silks, dress goods,
women's and men's wear , shoes, linens and
finery of every description. In fancy
articles the supply is very tempting. In
fact , there are desirable things in all of the
departments, which cover the whole field
of merchandise. It is significant that
much trade is coming from the surrounding
country, so that the Hershey Department
Store grows more and more as a big shopp-ing
center for lower Lebanon Valley,
On the second floor is the children s
paradise;. There one finds hundreds of
dolls and thousands of toys, consisting of
trains , trolleys, saw mills and unique
mechanica l contrivances that will give joy
to children for many days to come. These
toys are going fast—-be sure to make
your purchase this week.
Special attention is called to the charac-ter
of the jewelry sold at the Department
Store. It is strictly standard and depend-able
goods. The most exclusive jewelry
stores have nothin g better and here it is
far cheaper than in oilier places, because
only very reasonable margins are placed
upon it and there are no fancy charges for
high rentals and other overhead expenses.
The Hershey Department Store looks
wonderfully attractive , with its Christmas-tide
decorations, breathing as it docs, the
good old-fashioned Christ mas.pirit, , with
Its festoons, garlands and Christmas tree 's.

The Whipping Boss"
To Be Presented
By American Legion
Based upon the sensational Tabert case,
the facts of which were recited at great
length in the daily press, "The Whipping
Boss," heralded as "the most unusual
photoplay ever produced ," will be ex-hibited
at the Hershey Central Theatre,
Friday and Saturday, December 12th and
13th. It will be presented by Hershey
Post eif the Amerie-an Legion.
Although based upon a harsh theme, the
film is crowded with action and is tense,
but not harassing. To relieve the story 's
tenseness somewhat, a love theme has been
woven into the scenario. The cast is
headed by such stars as Lloyd Hughes,
Barbara Beelford , Edelie Phillips unci
Lydia Knott.
Martin Tabert was the se>n of a rancher
residing near Langdem. Like many other
beiys, young Tabert heard the call eif the
open road and made his way Seiuth. On
his way neirthward again he was arrested
for stealing a ride em a freight train. With-in
a few hours be had been convicted of
vagrancy and fined $25,00 with the
alternative of ninety days in prison. In-deed
, yening Tabert had gone into a lumber
camp where prisoners slaved under a
whipping boss.

Cocoa Bread Creating Much
Interest Among Bakers
We fully agren? with the sentiment so
often expressed that if the bakers wish to
increase the consumption of their products
they must produce a grea ter variety of
them so as to prevent the palate tiring of
the goods they offer. There has been
altogether too much sameness in the
bakery stores of the country, and there i.s
no good ri'ason why, with a little thought
and experimenting, new lines of w hole-some
baked goods that are different and
novel should, npt be produced.
Just nov^ cocoa bread is creating con-siderable
attention among the baking
trade, and whether this sort of bread will
ever be as popular as the white loaf is a
Question of secondary consideration , so
long as it provides the variety the people
evidently so much crave.
The more medical science progresses
and the better the fuel needs of the human
system are understood , the more important
becomes bread as leader among the body
builders. Until recently men of science
insisted that the man who does hard
manual labor should replenish the used up
energies of his body by partakin g freely of
meat.
But now comes Dr. William F. Boos, an
internationally known chemist and food
expert, who has taken a leading part in
many food test s conducted by the United
States Government and overthrows this
theory in fa^'or of good wholesome bread.
At the recent Swampscott Convention, Dr.
Boos, from the public platform', declared
the popular notion that the muscular
laborer needs quantities of meat to keep
his health and energy at its peak, all wrong,
further stating that the daily needs of this
type of man will be more tha n met by one
pound of good brea d and one quart of good
milk.
We eiurselves have very frequently
noted that the truly hard working sons of
Italy, who do most of the hard construc-tion
and roa d work in our cities, at their
noon day luncheon do not sit down to a
meal of meat , but partake of huge sand-wiches
consisting of nearly half a loa f of
bread , filled in with cheese or some greens.
Indigestion and other indispositions that
so often befall the man who insists on
having his porterhouse steak or chops
daily, of not twice a day, are unknown to
these men of hard toil.
Dr. Boos, however, cited further ex-amples
with a view of strengthening his
assertion that meat is not at all necessary
to the bodily welfare of the men of hard
labor . He pointed out that in many parts
of Europe, people eat practically nothing
but bread, cheese and milk, a diet making
them well fit for their daily occupation of
muscular labor. Among them are the
shepherds of the Alps, men who, in all
sorts of weather, have rough climbing to
do, but to whom meat is practically un-known
except on festive occasions;—
bread, milk , cheese and chocolate being
their daily ration, despite their rather
strenuous outdofor occupation .
Since the American baker, realizing the
body building properties of milk, uses
goodly quantities of this wholesome fluid
in the preparation of the Staff of Life, the
labeirers of the country have every oppor-tunity
to put the theory advanced by Dr.
Boos to a practical test. And since men
of science of Dr. Boos' high standing thus
once more proclaim bread as chief among
foods, we trust tha t every American baker
who takes pride in his calling will do his
level best to produce only such bread as
indeed will deserve the praise bestowed
upon the modern Staff of Life.
Baron Lives Fourteen Days
With Only Chocolate As Food
We are in receipt of a newspaper clipping
from Chas. E. Mahen, our progressive
representative, with his headquarters at
Knoxville, Tenn., which explains itself , as
follows:
"Baron Van Westerholt Van HackforU
24 years old , of Holland , who arrived in
Norfolk from Gibraltar on the battleship
Texas as a stowaway, must go back to his
native land. The department of labor
has wired that the baron 's appeal against
the deportation order of the Norfolk
immigration authorities had been denied.
On top of the telegra m from Washington
came a cable from Baron Frederick Van
Hackfort , father of the youthful baron,
addressed to J. P. Andre Mottu , consul of
the Netherlands at Norfolk , requesting
him to make arrangements to have the
young man sent home. The father also
cabled $1,000 to Mr. Mottu to be used as
he saw fit in preparing the runaway for
his voyage home.
"The younger baron cabled home for
funds soon after his arriva l in Norfolk , as
he wanted to see the country. As he
waited and hoped he remained in jail.
"He declared he went on board the
Texas at Gibraltar without Outside assist-ance,
hid in the hold in the ship near a
storeroom and remained there fourteen
days, with only chocolate for food, without
being discovered. "
The above clipping illustrates in a most
emphatic manner the tremendous amount
of nourishment in chocolate.
The sustaining food values of chocolate
has been known from time immemorable
by the Aztects, who believed that chocolate
was consumed by the Gods in Paradise,
and the seed of the cacao tree was conveyed
to man as a special blessing bv the God of
Air.
Montezuma, the haughty and proud
despot , and his court , whom the Spaniards
conquered in their conquest of Mexico,
consumed chocolate in large quantities.
Montezuma drank no other beverage than
chocolate. At one banquet he drank 50
jars of chocolate, while 2000 great j ars
were served to the guards and attendants.
During their festivals the Aztecs danced
day and night , continuing this for severa l
days, chocolate being their only fenid and
drink.
The Spaniards were thus the first Euro-peans
to gain knowledge of this remarkable
drink. With all the finesse of their race
they kept the methods of cultivation and
preparation a secret for nearly 100 years,
so that tho popular in Spain it was practi-cally
unknown in other countries until the
next century.
Their secret finally spread to Italy, to
Austria , to France, and then to England
and Germany. As chocolate was new,
costly and delicious, one can understand
that it added to the self-satisfaction,
already exquisite, of those who sipped it.
Those who knew it praised it as a poet
sings of his love; there were those who
claimed one could live fully on chocolate
alone; there were those who claimed that
it not only quenched the thirst but allayed
fevers; and others who claimed it a hive of
secret virtues.
The popularity of chocolate and cocoa
has been steady and continuous, and its
charms and virtues have become univer-sally
recognized and the consumption has
increased by laps and bounds, until today
il is four hundred times as great as it was a
century ago.
