JAM AND JELLY
MAKING MADE
EASY AND SURE

Today it is no more necessary for
you to make your jams and jellies
by the old. longboil method than it
is for you to light your house with
candles or spend the morning wash
ing lamp chimneys.
The reason for the old-fashioned
method Of boiling fruit down" was
that no fruit contains enough jelly
ing substance to jellify all of it's
juice. Therefore large amount of
juice had to be boiled away.
But now with Certo (the jellying
substance of fruit refined and bot
tled) you can use any fruit you like
even one which has never jelled
before-boil it only one or two min
utes, and get a perfect tender "set."
This short boil with Certo saves
all of your fruit and juice-its
fresh f1avor-its bright color-its
bulk. You get half again more jam
or jelly. It takes less time to make
1t and 1t tastes better. looks better
and cannot fail to jell.
A recipe book comes with each
bottle of Certo. Your grocer car
ries Certo, or you can send 1Oc (for
postage) and get a trial half-size
bottle which will make from to
| 10 glasses of jaYf or jelly, depend
| ing upon the recipe used. Address

The Picking Habit.

II don't care anything for flowers l

think she was speaking especially of
garden flowers. in which case her re-
mark had much to justify it. AS
result. though. she did not care much
for wild floWers--at least she didn't
ca"e for them If people were going to
forbid her to pick them.
The old question. Ito pick or not to
pick?' revives at this season as ever,
perennially. And as usual there are
as many viewpoints as there are peo-
pie The Wild Flower Preservation
Society. however. does try to unity
peoples minds on these matters, and
they bind their members and urge
others by posters not to pick certain
flowers.
Enthusiasts. though have carried
the crusade too far. and are abnormal
ly sensitive about picking any flowers
Of any sort There are enough
verbotens and prohibitions these days
TO keep the good-natured public on
edge, and II anything will dig1st peo-
pie with the Tins of wild flowers pres.

natural to want to pick flowers, and II

an actual law which it behooves every
one to obey and enforce. and that is
the matter of ownership. You may
drive your car into the woods and get
out and pick more plants than the
back seat will hold and they may all
be species on the list Of the Wild
flower Society. on the pickable list.
But the owner of the and may want
them and the fact that he does not
catch you stealing his property is GER

Women Who Have Interesting Tasks

By ALICE ROGERS HAGER

plant physiology was an excellent
background for the newer work. She
had also had two years of music
study and a year abroad, which had
great personal value but no practical
application to the teaching of home
making. so she followed these with
the course I'm Pratt Institute, In
Brooklyn, and then taught home eco
nOmics for two years in the Hebrew
Technical School for Girls in New
York City. During her time at Pratt
she was in charge of the settlement
Summer House, an excellet oppor-
tunity for learning the ins and outs
of cooperative housekeeping on q
large scale.
In 1910, she went to Simmns Col

class in foods and cookery. with
small class for actual homemakers
as "A side line.
Her most interesting experiment
previous to her present work, how
ever, came when she left Simmons
and went with the National Elect-:c
Lamp Association in their division or
health and economics to make a study
for them of the conditions in their
factories. This involved going into
the factories themselves as an In
cognitO hand" and working for 10
to ~ hours a day under the same
status as the workers. She reported
her findings and made motion studies
and some investigation Of the adapta-
ton of people to processes.

during the morning, as the signs only
indicate failure. Routine work only

care should be taken to overcome
the tendency that will be felt to be
quarrelsome and raptioUs. In the
structive effort or beneficial change
can be prosecuted with energy and

mosphere and conditions will induce
feeling of responsiveness that

Children born tomorrow will suffer
from one or two serious ailments dur

WHAT is NEWS?

Henry Justin Smith, managing edi-
tor of the Chicago Daily News and
author of the famous book on news
paper life, "Deadlines," in recent
speech before the Illinois Federation
of Women's clubs, gave the following
ten definitions of news:
News is a revelation of things
which few people know about, made
for the benefit of millions who would
not otherwise know about those
things.
''News is a synthetic food, deliver
ed for the purpose of satisfying a
great human hunger.
'News is the telescope and micro
scope of social laboratories.
''News is an unrhetorical essay on
life. 1t is poetry without form and
art without artistic intention.
"News is like the explosion of a
hidden mine on a peaceful sector of
the battle front.
''News is a record of the good and
the bad, but hardly ever of the in
different.
''News is a statement, not always
of the new, but sometimes of the new
made old; a statement not merely OF
the unusual, but often of the cruel
"News, which is sometimes spoken
Of as history, is rather an ingredient
of history, and one which does not al
ways stand the test of science.
"News is an implement welded by
a profession which is not respecter OF
persons, but tries to be respecter
of human conventions, according to
the standards of given time.
"News, at it's best, is the compre-
hensive and credible the enterprisng
but judicious, the eternally circum-
spect, but above all, the fundamenla al
ly fearless disclosure of what the hu-
man race has been doing for the last
