Abstract: "In the destiny of nations, the supreme importance of nutrition has been demonstrated."1 Great strides have been made in the last decade or two in our scientific knowledge of this relatively new science of nutrition. The illuminative and revealing statistics available on the draftees of World War Number One caused many agencies to coordinate their efforts and expand their programs in a campaign for better health through sound nutrition, Much of this concerted effort was very properly directed toward making better nutrition a reality for families in greatest need. Financial disability is rightfully recognized as one of the determining factors responsible for such shocking statistics, but vying for equal importance is ignorance of nutrition and a failure on the part of those educated in the science to apply what they know.
