Place by Eddie James The last couple of days we have been studying the Marshall Plan. The play is to help Europe be- come prosperous again. During many countries ombed or invaded• We realized that we had to help, so Secretary George C. Marshall thought up a four-year plan to help them. The plan is not for us to do their work for them, but to give them the things they need to help themselves. We have studied each nation separately, and have found :that some need food, some need clothing and some need markets to sell their merchandise. Some nations were not invaded, but they were trading with coun- tries that were invaded. Take Great Britain, for example. They were not invaded, but when the countries that they were trading with were invaded, they couldn't export enough things to Britain, so she didn't have enough food to her' needs. That is one of the ways Great Britain suffered during the war. We have decided that the Mar- shall Plan is a good one because it will help tbe world trade get started again, and besides we can't stand by with all our resources and watch Europe starve.

Although expensive cuts of meat are often more tender, don't forget that cheaper ones are as nutritious and that there are ways to prepare them for mighty delicious eating. R e c en t feeding experiments show that .meat-eating babies avoid anemia. Strained beef, veal, pork and lamb were added to bot- tle formulas for six-weeks olds and the youngsters thrived, dis- proving the idea that meat is hard for infants to digest. q A i iii i ispheres on which maps% were drawn• Then book jackets, from stories with settings in different parts of the world were placed on the sketch.
