Eges — Any Style Put “Beef” In You This morning on a_ million breakfast tables, eggs started Canadians on another busy day. Many people feel that they cannot face an egg first thing in the morning, and the Nutrition Division says that whether you eat eggs in the morning, at noon or at night, or how they are cooked, matters not at all, The important thing is that you do eat at least the three or four eggs a week recommended by Canada’s Food Rules. The eggs that occasionally sub- stitute for the daily serving of meat or fish—there should be’ two of them-——are extras. You cheat yourself if you count them among the three or four a week. Suppose you have two. eggs instead of «a serving of roast beef. The eggs will provide .as much thiamine and iron, more riboflavin, but only about. two- thirds as much protein. However, . cided, Pacifie Pilots To Be Drawn From Reserve High-ranking R.C.A.F. officers this week revealed that no new pilots are being . trained for the Canadian air force.

These are being trained in ele- mentary schools at Saint John, N.B.; Pendleton, Ont., and York- ton, Sask., and in service schools at Calgary, Souris, Man., and Haegersville, Ont. Royal Navy Fleet Air Arm pilots are being given courses at Kingston, Ont., the air vice-marshal said. He did not reveal; the size of the R.C.A.F. ‘force going to the Pacific theatre. Brig.-Gen. W. W. Welsh, United States Army. Assistant Chief of Staff for Air Training, and head of the combined com- mittee, said the United States Army had also ceased training new pilots. the eggs add something extra in the form of more than one-third of the day’s needs of vitamin A. ume, 1-452 Back home to the happiness of reunion come several thousand of our long-service troops.
