Ice cream with lunch? Can do. Layer cake with dinner? Permitted. But, warns this specialist, the serious dieter must follow two rules: 1. Essential foods must be eaten every day. That means protein foods, fats, carbohydrates, minerals and vitamins. 2. Never go over daily calorie quota.‘‘Eat a little» of everything,’’? counsels this doctor.

The astronauts called it “the good earth.” And as Mr Stevenson intimated, it is a fragile earth supporting life as man knows it on a finely balanced combination of cosmic.circumstances that are slowly being altered by man himself, Only in recent years have scientists suspected the many ways in which human beings, by their numbers and __ technological achievements, are beginning to threaten human existence. A part of this threat stems from ignorance of the nature of the life-sustaining forces of earth, plus a stunning lack of perception of the real meaning of what we are pleased to call the population explosion, Dr. John H. Rediske, former Atomic Energy < Commission Fellow and now head of a forest tree sciences group at a large timber company, writes of people and resources in a manner that indelibly .impresses a lay reader. He points out, "If one could compress all geologic time, the 4.5 billion years since the earth was born, into one year some startling facts regarding the recency of life on this ball of rock would become evident. .let us assume that the earth is bornon the first of January. .It is May before single-celled living organisms appear in the warm sheltered coastal waters.

And yet again, a 11:36 p.m., the population doubles for the fourth time since Christ was born to yield the present figure of approximately three billion people. Twentyfour minutes later, at midnight (the year 2000), it will double for the fith time and six billion human beings will inhabit the earth. And by the year 2070, at the same rate of progression, the earth's population will be an incredible 25 billion!

He tells how the most essential element of life, oxygen, is dependent upon the photosynthetic activity of the seas, the forest and growing plants, Most of us think of these resources in terms of food and forest products, But one of their main functions is to provide oxygen for present and future generations.
