The housewife who understands few
tests for the purity of food can help the
pure food laws to safeguard her family
Of course, one of the best helps is to buy
food which is. fresh; when it is canned, tc
labeled and that it is of reliable make
and to go to reliable dealers.
Vegetables should always be fresh look
ing and of bright color when they are
bought fresh. Even so,- they are not al
ways fresh The reason that some per-
sons prefer canned asparagus to that
they buy I'm the market is that canned
asparagus, of the best brands, is canned
within an hour or so after it is cut; and
we are lucky if we eat that in the mar
kets within twenty-fou hours of the
time it left the roots. Other canned
vegetables and fruits put up by the most
be fresh than those we buy and cook al
home, unless, of course. We grow then
ourselves or have some other way OF
knowing that they arc fresh.
Canned food. however, does occasion
ally prove dangerous and should always
be chosen with care. Food canned In
glass is almost never poisoned, but. OF
course, 1t is expensive. A reliable pro-

Home Tests for Purity

, which looks fresh, but bright colors do
not mean that the food was fresh when
it was canned. Bright green and bright
red indicate the presence of dyes. The
red is probably coal tar dye, and 50 bril-
liant red tomatoes, currant jelly and
| raspberres are often adulterated.
Price is fairly good gauge Of the
purity of canned goods-that is to say.
the cheapest canned goods are the most
often adulterated. In reliable brands.
however, the cheaper goods are just as
likely to be pure as the more expensive
ones. The higher-priced cans simply
contain the more perfect fruit. Nothing
, that is not perfect-not even a tomato
which is accidentally crushed against
another tomato or plum that Is little

of one famous Gamer. This near-perfect
fruit and vegetable product, quite as
fresh and wholesome as the perfect kind
goes into cans sold for a lower price-and
hence is desirable in every way.
Food is more likely to contain poisons

Shocking and Shirring
Small Girls Frocks

Shocking is one of the prettiest decora-
tons for small girls frocks, and it is
really very easily done. It is a sort of
stirring with. the shirring ripped out
that is to say, the material is first shirred
in parallel rows. the shocking design is
then worked and then the shirring threads
are drawn out. A little girls frock of
dimity, shocked at neck and sleeves with
blue, pink or any other becoming color,
can be further trimmed with ribbon
sash to match the shocking. The fullness
at the waist can be disposed of in smock-
ing, if there is time to make the frock
a little more elaborate. Bands of smock-
ing can be made with threads of three or
four colors and these bands can be ap-
piled at the bottom of the child's skirt
and at the ends of the elbow cuffs

VERSATILE EXPERT
FOR SCHOOL CRAFT
H. B. FroehIich, Master of
Many Arts, to Head Man
Manual Training Dept.

Recommended ions of such generous
terms and from such high sources ac-
companied the application of Pro-
fessor Hugo B. Froehlich for the po-
sition of supervisor of manual arts in
the Newark public schools that the
committee of instruction of the Board
of Education congratulated them
selves in extending their Endorsement
of his appointment on having the OPP
portunity to secure his services.
| Commissioner Gaetano M. Belfatto
did not concur, and voted mo" on the
resolution, but his reasons were on
the score OF economy.
| Professor F'roehlich is understood to
have had wide experience in instruct
ing classes in the finer kinds of man
ual training. He was in charge or
that branch of work at Pratt lnst1-
tute, Brooklyn, for a number of years,
and only the fact that his resignation
went to the faculty at a time when
| the president was spending his sab
batical year abroad resulted in his
| quitting there. Last year he was lee
| turing, and his income from that
source was SO, 400. 1t is chiefly his de-
sire to do practical instruction work
! that led to his considering this posi-
tion with its annual salary of $500
a wear. Under the grading system
that increases by 500 raises to
maximum of $4,000.
Samples of Professor Froehlich's
own handiworlx were displayed to
the commissioners. They covered a
wide field Some of the most re-
markable were samples of settings in
gold, silver and metals of precious
and semi-precious stones. Rings,
brooches, necklaces and the like
showed fine workmanship. There
were also fine samples of bookbind-
| ing, cabinet making and carving.
drawing, designing and metal-worlS-
ing The samples were viewed with
enthusiasm by the commissioners.
| Commissioner Belfatto opposed the
appointment of the new supervisor
on the score of economy, saying that
the work could be carried on by the
present supervisors without a general
supervisor over them. Supervisors,
principals, directors always pardon
and forgive the faults of those under
| them" he said. "These supervisors
of departments of the work would be
more efficient if they were answera BILE
| to the board alone"
1--WE are indulging ourselves too
much in Injuries" said Commission
er Belfatto. 1--WE are tending to the
unnecessary expenditures of money
We find ourselves facing these eco
nomic problems which are threaten
ing in all departments of our munich
palities Where we can do as we'll
| If not better by saving the salary
attaching TO a position we ought to
do SO. I shall vote against this ap-
pointment."
