Of the body with stiff brush before

The strainer can not be depended

Another source Of contamination is
improperly cleaned utensils. Prof.
Eckles says single dirty can may con-

hibitants in the world, and they are
ready for business as soon as milk is
placed In the can.
The most proper thing to use in
cleaning utensils is good, strong

- HE list of debutantes and the al
important announcements Of their
coming out parties is steadily
increasing and one by one these
buds are telling just which day in NO
vember that they have selected for
their initial bow te the social world
and the momentous season before

month, according to the present sched-
ule, is Miss Kathleen Farrell, the pref
ty and accomplished daughter Of Mrs
James N. Farrell, who will be intro
duced at tea 10 be given on the aft
ernoon of November 10 at the family
home, at Broadway and Octavia streets.
The tea will be one or the most elao-
crate OF the season. since Miss Farrell
has a wide acquaintance and has been
abroad for more than year with her
mother and has not had an opportu-
nifty of greeting her friends since her
return. This debutante is niece OF
Mr.. and Mrs. James Shea
Another debutante, who will make
her bow on the afternoon Of October
80, is Miss Ila Sonntag. and these girls
are the only two Of the winter group
who have definitely decided and an
neunced the dates of their initial par
ties.
The week seems TO be devoted almost
exclusively to informal parties and
many OF these have the excuse Of a
guest of honor, while others are mere
ly for a dozen or two friends without
the selection on any one in particular
for the compliment. The tea given
yesterday by Mrs. William Mintzer was
for Mrs. Horace Hill, who will return
to New York for the winter. but who
has had a gay round of parties during
her visit here with old friends. Those
who assisted Mrs. Mintzer in receiving
her guests were Mrs. Richard Bayne,

the first day that hops were inaugur-

remember that time.
There was the usual bevy of girls
from town and several men who enjoy
these fortnig ghtly affairs and there was
a large attendance from the post, since
every one finds these hops delightful
beyond dispute.
There was the usual round of dinner
parties preceding the dance. and among
the larger affairs of this sort was the
dinner given by Captain and Mrs Sterl-
