Boys who are thus splendidly equipped go forth ready to conquer the grave emergencies of life. You need not ask whether they will make a success. They can com- mand it, dominate it, win it in practically every instance. Mens :ana in corpore sane -a sound mind in a sound body-has been frequently quoted. It represents a momentous truth that many people fail to recognize. Parents who encourage their boys to give their entire attention to mental development fail to recognize the grave need of a splendid physical foundation, and they are building their boy's career on shifting sands. Square shoulders-vital physical characteristics-are the essential requirements of our studentsg and those who come to us without these much needed character- istics will receive the attention necessary to properly develop them. Every boy will some day be a mang and it should be his one ambition to be a strong man-strong in mind and body. With such a physical equipment as a be- ginning, he should be able to reach this highest possible development mentally, morally and spiritually. -BERNARR MACFADDEN. ,r',,' NAF ,i,i I, DIRECTOR FLORES TESTING CADET'S STRENGTH IYDICAI MENUS BREAKFAST DINNER SUPPER Wheatsworth Cereal Creamed Chicken on Toast ' Fruit Salad Scalloped Potatoes Apple Sauce Chopped Steak Cranberry jelly Green Lima Beans Whole Wheat Bread-Butter Sweet Potatoes with Marshmallow Topping P Toast Tomato Salad Hot Rolls-Butter reserves Butter Liilk Postum Ice Cream-Cake HO!

MACFADDEN VISITS THE DIET AND PHYSICAL CULTURE TRAINING lD1ET is a factor of grave importance in building vigorous health. Vital foods that nourish the body in all its various parts, properly and deliciously prepared, are essential in the attainment and maintenance of buoyant health. Our school diet is diversified to make it more appetizing, but white flour products that are the cause of bad teeth, digestive and other disorders, are not used in this school. Boys usually have hearty appetites and are able to enjoy foods that possess the vital building elements nec- essary to develop fine bodies. The physical work, required of our students, will naturally give them splendid appetites. We do not consider it necessary to adhere to any strict diet except in cases of illness. Our food is com- posed of what the average home terms wholesome, appetizing and delicious. SCHOOL One of our special requirements in preparing foods is the use of whole Hour and corn meal, with none of the vital part removed. This enables us to furnish bread, rolls, cakes and pies that bring out the flavor of the grain in all its appetizing delicacy. The great importance of physical strength is every- where recognized. Without splendid dynamic health one cannot cope with the difficulties with which he must come in contact in the strenuous race for success. Superior physical energies must be back of every worthwhile effort. The school which neglects this important factor can- not turn out graduates who can efficiently meet the out- standing emergencies of life. The struggle for success might be termed a battle, for it is a series of contests and the prizes go to those who are strong enough mentally, physically and morally to be in the winning class. Special attention is given in our school to the im- portance of vital physical energies. The body is devel- oped at the same time the mind and character are molded. There are too many neutral, struggling human ciphers trying to reach a shining goal. They start out in life with a certain amount of enthusiasm but it soon fritters away because they lack force and the dominating per- sistence that will never accept failure. But the flaming spirits that really accomplish some- thing in life are always overflowing with energy. They are alive to the finger tips. They are full of keen am- bitions, splendid enthusiams, with unflinching determina- tion that leads to worthwhile achievements. Boys who start out in life with a capital of this sort can be assured victories in abundance. A fine physical personality is an invaluable asset. It helps a young man to advance, no matter where his activities may be. The business man, the lawyer, the doctor, minister, statesman-they all need this tremendously important asset. A clear head-a keen brain-these factors can be relied upon to help win the great prizes of life. We try as nearly as possible to make every boy who is placed under our care an athlete in body and an athlete in mind. These invaluable characteristics should always go to- gether.

CAS IQ HEIGHTS AVIATION GROUND SCHOOI IITIHE aviation industry is today the most popular field of industry. This is an industry that needs the properly trained personnel and this personnel must come from young mem with a clear head and young ideas. We need not mention the ever- increasing advancement of civil and military aviation because this advancement is well known. The combined aeronauti- cal industry is asking for trained men to become executives, pilots, mechanics, aeronautical engineers, airport constructors, technically slcilled laborers, salesmen, and a host of other desirable positions. The authorities of C. H. M. A. have realized this need for a general aviation ground school course, to acquaint those students with the various fields connected with aviation so that they may be better prepared to plan their future. The Army and Naval Air Corps, the U. S. Dept. of Commerce, and Parks Air College of E. St. Louis, Missouri, have aided in establishing this course. The instructor of this course is well qualified and capable, and is a licensed instructor under the United States Government's Civilian Pilot Training pro- gram.
