New York, Aug. 3O.-The south
ern woman, known universally as a
beauty and perfect hostess, is in re-
volt. She wants it to be known that
she can do more than preside over a
tea urn gracefully-that she is among
the best educated women in the coun-
try.
And she has figures to prove it.
"The social butterfly is proving her.
self in the business world, in politics
and in the professions, and she believes
that it is high time the world realizes
it," says Miss Helen P. Mccormick,
field secretary of the Southern Wo-
mems Educational Alliance. Miss Nc
Cormick, herself southern woman,
was formerly assistant district attor-
ney in Brooklyn, the first woman
to hold such a post in New York City.
"The south is the only section of
this country which can boast wo-
man i'm the House of Parliament

points out.

commissioners. The chair was one

ed for salad the cold pack method is
more satisfactory as the fruit stays
whole. If canning two or three cans
at time it is PERHAPS quicker and
easier to use the open .,ttle method.
Open Kettle
Wipe tomatoes clean. Put in
large pan and pour boiling water
over them. Let stand till skin wrin-
kles. Remove from water and slip
skins. Cut large tomltoes in quar-
tiers and small ones in halves. Put
in preserving kettle, allowing 1 tea
spoon of salt for each qIart of to-
matoes. Bring to the boiling point
and let boil a minute. Just long
enough to thoroughly scald the to-
matoes but not long enough to cook
them "to pieces" Lift the toma-
toes from the kettle with a slotted
spoon, putting them into sterilized
Jars. Fill to OVERLOOKING with juice
from the kettle and seal Immediately.
Strain the remaining juice in the pre-
serving kettle. Reheat ,nd pour into
steriized jars and seal. This is ex-
cellent for soup and is n great con-
venience when wanted. If celery and
onions are at hand add these cut in
small pieces before streaming. Let cook
several minutes TO extract the flavor.
This makes n well seasoned soup ready
to use with the simple addition of
milk.
Cold Pack.
Select smooth perfectly ripe toma-
toes that are the right size to put
into the cans whole. Use imperfect
tomatoes for juice to fill jars in
place of water. Cook these toma-
toes and strain the juice. Great
care should be taken that every
trace of over-ripc tomatoes be cut
away. Scald the tomatoes selected
for canning for IL minutes. Cold
dip and slip off skins. Pack in
sterilized jars. add 1 teaspoon salt
TO a quart jar, pour over juice to
cover tomatoes and half seal. Put
in hot water bath and process 2
minutes. counting the time after
boiling BEGINS. The cans viii cool
| the water and il will be several min
utes until boiling begins the second
time. Remove from boiler. finish
sealing and turn jars upside down
to cool. Cool quickly and store in
daik, cool place.

Both these women were fitting

The other woman wanted youth

Make Way For Southern Women


which Theodore Roosevelt had for
merly held, and the iSoman, Helen
Hamilton Gardner.
Southern women are becoming in
creasingly active in business and the
professions.
But these women are anxious. to
put education within the reach of
every southern girl, declares Miss
Mccormick, and so the Southern w.
mems Educational Alliance, organ
lied nine years ago, is going out
after an endowment with which, as
they say, "to build permanent
bridge between educational oppor-
tunity and the young southern woman
in search of it,"
Helpful Purposes
Among the purposes of the alliance
which will be shown at the Women's
Activities Exhibit to be held here in
September are:
Assisting the girl financially
handicapped by means of scholarships,
student loans and se..-help.
Distributing vocational informa-
ton.
Demonstrating the scope of work
open to educated women.
promoting interest in vocational
guidance in public schools"

LETTER FROM LESLIE PRES.
COTT TO LESLIE PRESCOTT,
IN CARE THE SECRET
DRAWER.

1 like Ruth Ellington very much,
dear little Marquise.
On the night of my dinner party
she asked me to go with her the next
day on shopping tour. She wanted
her spring hat.
She was another woman when we
were alone.
Talk about the joys Of the chase !
/ venture that no man ever had as
much fun with a gun in a well
stocked game preserve as a woman
does when she is stalking a hat at
a spring opening.
"Let's go to that awfully expen-
sive new hat shop" l said to Mrs.
Ellington.
"But 1 can't afford any of their
hats" she answered.
II know it but we can get an idea
of all the exclusive modes and ideas
and then if we see the other kind
we will know how nearly they come
up to the standard.
II think I'll get black hat" said
Mrs. Ellington as we entered. The
pretty young woman who spoke
French with an Irish brogue and
ca1ied us both madamoiselles, soon
had rs seated in front of the mirror.
While we were waiting for her to
return, we saw in the next booth a
woman who was surely over forty
trying on hats.
"Don't show me black hat. ]
can't wear it," we heard her say.
The obliging young woman brought
her one of baby blue.
"My. do you suppose that woman
is going to buy that hat?" asked Mrs.
Ellington. Someone ought to tell

Whether you are G, 16 or 26, the
summer styles have provided you with
comfortable clothes for outdoor wear.
If you are G years old you'll enjoy
a MILDLY blouse-with yoke, short
sleeves and a collar cut to follow
the line of the yoke.
If you're 16, the straight loose
blouse trimmed with buttons from Top
to bottom will please you. If you
are PC, the tailored simplicity of the
third model win be just Nright.
One thing is sure-whatever the
model and whatever your age, one
sport blouse you have must be made
of flannel. Red or white flannel,
blue flannel, grfeen flannel, worn
with a pleated white skirt makes
one of the smartest of summer cos
tunes.

Canned Tomatoes

The woman who would serve her
tomatoes economically during the late
summer and early fall will buy them
by the basket rather than the pound.
Use what is needed for the table and
can the rest. All foods are cheaper
bought in large quantities and toma-
toes are so easily take- care of that
it pays to purchase them in pecks
and half bushels.
Canned tomatoes can be served in
so many different ways that the
average family seldom tires of
them. And in the winter when fresh
vegetables are so scarce and so high
priced tomatoes once a day or three
or four times a week help to keep
the food bills down and the family
in good health.
Dieticians consider tomatoes quite
as high in valuable vitamines as
oranges. They give tomato Juice to
babies in place of orange juice these
DAYS.
Tomatoes are canned by the open
kettle method or cold pack. If want

The business men of Saratoga are
overlooking many things of value to
the town, and things which would re
suit directly to their own profit by not
assisting in keeping life in ii CONNER
cial organization here. The Commun-
ity Club organized a couple of years
ago has ceased to function as an or
ganization, and no meetings are held.
The secretary of that organization,
however, assuming that he is entitled
to hold office until his successor is
elected. has continued to do what little
he can do alone, furnishing his own
stationary, postage and time, but he
can accomplish little without the coun-
sci and support of other business men.
Many matters of Importance have been
neglected for this reason. and the
town and community suffer through
lack of boosters inc supporters. Prop
erty owners and those who have bust
ness investments here are obstructing
their own interests when they neglect
or refuse to give time and support to

THE POOR SAFETY COMMITS

The lot of Il commissioner of safety
is hard. Chosen by the people to draft
and enforce ordinances and regulations
in the interest of public safety, he finds
that the very constituents who vested
him with his authority are the hardest
to save from themselves. Ask him if it
is not in the violation of the rules it
delegated him to promulgate, and upon
which it thereby puts the seal of APP
proval. that the public suffers the
greatest loss of life and limb. Inquire
Of him If the people do not expect him
to protect thom and theirs. and at the
same instant by their own acts wan
tonly make it impossible. Get his
traffic officers to tell what they know
about the inconsistency-the determin-
ed recklessness-of the selfsame pub
lie that hired them for protection. An
illuminating instance has just come TO
light from figures recently compiled.
In 1921 the total casualties to per-
sons, exclusive of employees, in railway
collisions and derailments were 1872
killed and 2,TjS injured. During the
same period there were, exclusive of
railway employees, 1906 persons killed
and S.6S4 injured in highway grade
