Washing pots and pans after each
time they are used in hot, soapy water
containing small amount of washing
soda is perhaps the best means of
Keeping these kitchen utensils clean
and slightly, home economics special
lists at the College of Agriculture say.
One pound of washing soda to four
quarts of water makes a solution of
the right strength to add to the wash
water. Where it is necessary to scour
the metal Of the utesils to keep them
in good condition 1t Is said that whit
ing gives satisfactory results with the
least wear on the metal. The acids of
such common foods as rhubarb, toma-
toes, lemons or oranges will often re-
move discolorations. Rinsing the uten-
sils with boiling water and drying
them thoroughly before they are put
away also is helpful in keeping them
clean and bright, the specialists say.
Whiting moistened with any food
acid such as those mentioned is good
for aluminium. Washing soda should
not be used on utensils made of this
material since the alkali which 1t con-
tains darkens the metal. A weak soda
solution will often remove great from
brass while whiting and dilute acid
will remove tarnish. Brass may be
polished with rotten stone and sweet
: oil and rried with soft cloth. Copper
may be cleaned nthe same way.
Kerosene will remove rust anc
grease fro miron. Boiling utensils o
this kind in a strong solution of wash
ing soda also will remove rust. II
some cases a strong abrasive such al
emery may be necessary in order t
remove all the rust. Too much scrub

diers. The Unied States sent some. AS
a result, peace was restored and China
apologized for the outrage. But the
other nations demanded damages-in-
IDENTITIES China agreed to pay the
damages but this country declined to
accept any more than enough to reim-
burse private claims.
Nov you can understand why China
locks upon the United States as her
one unselfish friend. Practically every
other nation had been grabbing Chi
nese territory, but the United States
never had. Then, when all the nations
had been awarded damages, the United
States declined to accept any for her
self. Other nations had provoked the
Boxer uprisings an dthe American had
not. But it was the United States that
showed the only friendly and forgiv-
ing spirit
"But what is China In trouble about
now?" asked Jack.
well, as | told you a moment ago,
when Japan went into the European
war, she took the German possessions
in China. Then, while the war was on,
Japan made q demands upon China
which, if agreed to, would mean that
Japan would control China for all fu-
ture time. Japan claims that China
did virtually agree to thees demands
but China denies this.
"I rather think that Great Britain
made a sort Of agreement to uphold
Japan's claims, without knowing thu
Importance they would play, and sup
pose the British government feels tina
it must not oppose Japan even if /
does not actively support it in the un
reasonable demands upon China. Blu
whatever the British government does
the British people viii mot stand TO
any such injustice. The government
of Australia and Canada and Soutl
Africa, which are British dominions
are opposed to the Japanese aggres
sions against China. The whole worlt
when it comes to understand the stu
