PRODUCTS DIVIDED
BY CANNING CLUBS
24o2 Jars Distributed Among
Women Of Four Nationalities
at College Settlement
ANOTHER DIVISION TODAY

Satisfaction was expressed in three
or four foreign languages yesterday
afternoon at the College Settlement
when members of the canning clubs re
ceived the fruits of their summer lnbors.
There were 2492 Jars of fruits and
vegetables canned by the 142 members
of the clubs this season and the annual
distribution yielded as many as forty
Jars to some.
"It comes in good" said one.
"And just to think, we did this last
summer when we could swim in
sugar :"
The canning clubs are a three year
old institution. Starting in 1917 with
fifty seven members and almost trip
pling the number this year, they have
made canning one of the most popular
OF the College Settlement activities.
Eight clubs have been formed among
the Polish, Italian, Russian and Irish
women of the ncighborhood.
In Height of Season
Vegetables and fruits come TO the
settlement from private farms or are
purchased at the height of their season
In wholesale quantities. The clubs pre-
mare the raw materials for the jars, ana
under the direction Of leaders from the
Home Economic Extension Service OF
State College the whole process Is COM
pleted.
Aside from the drying beans and pep
pers and the making of tomato paste
the women have little idea OF the
"American way of taking care OF tne
winter menu. Canning is not done IN
the old country and the method has to
be taught from the very beginning.
1--WE have such good time, con
fided a Russian mother, who was OK
pecting to receive nearly thirty lars,
s'Even when we cannot speak Italian
with some of the women we have the
best time. And now with everything
SO dear it comes in good.
Half the product goes to the settle
ment for the materials and half to
the women for the labor and an accu-
rate account is kept to see what share
of the canned vegetables belongs to
each member. Some of them get as
many as forty jars and others, OF
course, only a few.
Idea Is Spreading
Not only has the product of the
canning club increased 800 per cent
In the three years, but the idea is
spreading into the homes, The clubs
were so crowded this last year that
many of the women were not able to
get to the club as frequently as in
1918, and so they have been canning
some fruits and vegetables at home.
The distribution party was held at
the Christian street house yesterday
and will be held at 500 South Front
street tonight, when Mrs. Ellicott
Smith. head of the Woman's Land
Army, will talk on the work of the
land army in Pennsylvania.
Miss Anna T. Davies is head worker
at the College Settlement, Miss Abb
gail Davies was in charge of the can
ming club work and Miss Helen X.
Rogers, of the Home Economics EX-
tension Service of State College, dem
onstrated canning during the season.

Speaking for myself. never could

self to the extent of allowing a boy
to become overly familiar with her.
Whenever / see a girl allowing a
boy to put his arm around her
think of how many other fellows
she has previously encouraged to do
the same thing. For myself, pre-
fer not to be lone of the 81"

me where in Omaha can a self
respecting young man meet the type
of girl which Miss Lanes letter sug-
gests?

I am nearly 20, rather tall and
am neither cross-eyed, pigeon toed,
nor have I a broken nose or any
