BROKERS' TO SELL STAMPS

The Pennsylvania Association of
Licensed Small Loan Brokers at
meeting in Philad slpnia passed res
olutions pledging support to the Gov
ernment in its conduct of the war,
and pledging themselves to secure
appointments as regular agents for
the Thrift and War Savings Stamps.
As the association has members in
nearly every town of over $4,000
population in the state. il is thought
large sum will be eralzed from
the activities of the members. The
resolution also pledged the associa-
tion to discourage the lending of
money on Liberty Bonds, as it is
understood the Government wants
the bonds to remain in the hands
of the people.

morning was devoted almost eXclu-

and securing a registration of the
dry vote of the state.
pennsylvania is the only state of
the Union" pointed out Secretary
Claypool, bitterly, ''in which voters
have no direct voice as to whether
saloons may be established in a
community. The judge of the dis
trict has supreme authority; from
him there is no appeal. There are
enough dry voters in the state to
vote down whisky If they can only
be persuaded to get out and register
at the primaries. There is no doubt
abou the sentiment. All we need
now is the registration and the

BABY BEETs

The following recipe for canning
baby beets is applicable to carrots
Only young, tender beets should be
canned to get high quality product
The best variety for canning is the
Detroit.
Sort the beets, putting uniform sizes
together. Cut the stems off, but be
careful not to cut off too closely or
break the root. This will cause loss OF
Juice, color and flavor. Boil in an en-
ameled pan until three-fourths done,
peel, pack hot in layers in previously
boiled jars, fitting the second layer into
the spaces left by the first layer and
repeating. Cover with clear hot wa
ter; partially seal the jars and boil
them in water bath for one hour con-
tinuously, counting from the time the
water boils again around the jars.
Do not allow cold water to touch
the beets after they have been cooked
If beets are packed in tin the cans
used must be inside-lacquered. Beets
In inch in diameter and over should
be cut or sliced before packing into
jars. When steam-pressure Gamer
is used, process pints 80 minutes un
der five pounds steam pressure.--Unit
ed States Department of Agriculture.

VEGETABLE MIXTURES

Attractive and economical vegetable
mixtures to be served in salads, with
omelets, escalloped dishes, and gar
nishes for meat dishes can be canned
at home. This by-product may be
canned often when small quantities
are left from packing different vege-
tables whole. Any desired combina-
tons may be made. Vegetables ma
turing in the same season should be
used. A good combination for the
spring would be carrots, peas, string
beans and onions. A mixture which
could be made from the fall garden
might consist of peppers, celery. on
Ions and small lima beans. (Beets can
not be used In such mixtures because
they discolor the entire contents of the
jar) All these vegetables are pre-
pared separately as for canning and
packed in layers in previously boiled
jars. Each layer should be packed as
tightly as possible before the next Is
added. When the jar is filled, cover
with brine (21a ounces Of salt to one
gallon of water). Partially seal jars
Processing with steam under pres
sure Is recommended. Process pint
Jars 45 minutes under pressure of ten
pounds. Seal Immediately and cool In
draft-free place. When cold test fol

place. "a

used, boil for 80 minutes on the first
day, and 80 minutes on the second

CHEERFUL HEART GOES FAR
When You Come to Think of II, the
Man With "Grouch" Is Seldom
Popular.

To keep the face cheerful, the voice
cheerful, to do good like a medicine,
we must keel the, heart cheerful.
This Is not an easy matter. One does
not simply have to say: II will be
cheerful" and then have 1t so. He
has to work for cheerfulness, just as
he works to be honest or kind, or
brave, or learned. He must be looking
out for bright things to see and do.
He must deliberately, yet quickly,
choose which things he will think
about and how. He has to shut his
teeth, as 1t were, sometimes, and turn
away from the gloomy things, and do
something to bring back the, cheerful
spirit again. If we are cheerful for
others, we are doing for ourselves.
Good given, means good sent back.
Cheerfulness can become habit, and
habit sometimes helps us over hard
places. A cheerful heart seeth cheer
full things. Exchange.

success. Only young and very freshly
