to say that Nothing in my house
hold is wasted"
All food coming from outside sources
should be taken care of without de-
lay. Meat should be removed at once
from the wrapper and put on plates
in the ice chest. Milk and cream
should not be left standing on the
porch, bat should be put into the re-
frigerator at once Meat tightly
wrapped or covered, preventing free
circulation of air, encourages spoilage.
Fruit should be removed at once
from bags and boxes, placed in shall
low pans in the ice chest. Berries
left in deep dishes piled high will
crush and spoil much quicker than in
shallow dishes.
Butter and lard should be kept in
suitable receptacles. Butter in Jars
should be covered with white cheese
cloth wrung from cold salt water.
A systematic method of procedure
should be used in the clearing away Of
a meal. All bits of bread, crusts and
crumbs of crackers should be placed
at once in a can which may be tightly
covered and kept for this purpose.
These pieces when dried may be re-
duced to crumbs, then they are ready
for breading and for various dishes
using crumbs
The fresher portions of bread may
be used for puddings, dressings, the
base of stuffingj and many other
dishes. Bread is too valuable food
to be wasted.
A small cup or howl should be used
for the waste bits of butter. These
are used for seasoning and for but
tered toast.
Using stale cake in buildings may
be carried out endlessly. Salads may
be made, and most appetiZing ones,
from small amounts of fruit and vege-
tables. Omelets may be given flavor
and food value by the addition of
chopped meats, nuts, vegetables or
jelly before they are folded.
All bits of leftover meats, bones,
gristle which cannot be otherwise
used, should go into the soup kettle.
Gravies and vegetables add to the
soup flavor and should be added. 1t
is well to remember, however, that
vegetables will quickly spoil the broth
if allowed to stand, so such soup
should be served the same day, in
warm weather.

them. Some like small bunch OF
mint cooked with the peas. This Is
especially good when serving lamb
chops.
Gum camphor in the silver chest
will keep it from furnishing.
Don't forget when poisoned with
poison ivy to crush fresh catnip leaves
and bind over the spots infected.
A little paraffin rubbed over the
kitchen range while it is still warm
will keep it shiny and good looking.
When leaving the house for few
weeks this is a good thing to do to
keep it from ruSting. Save all scraps
Of paraffin to use for such purposes.
Muriatic acid Every poisonous) will
remove rust and other stains from
porcelain tubs and toilets. Use care
to rinse well as soon as the stain is
removed. otherwise it will eat into the
enamel.
The spatula or wide timber knife is
indispensable in scraping out cooking
dishes, doing away with the old-fash-
toned and not to be recommended, fore
finger.
The finger nails, with the best of
care, harbor countless bacteria. Care
of the food is not being Overfussy;
we all like to. feel that the food we
eat has been neatly prepared.
Less butter will be used on griddle
cakes if some is added to the hot
sirup to be used on cakes. Some
mothers think that both butter and
sirup on cakes is wasteful, but if one
likes it better, that is the best way
to decide the question.
Economy is a great game and the
oftener it is played the more enjoy
ment is gained by using ones mind on
this important matter.
When cooking on rainy or damp
day remember that water boils out
much quicker as the air being full of
moisture soaks it up rapidly.
Old stocking legs make fine busters
and are especially good for the kitchen
stove.

MOTHER BIC FAMILY RULES .COVERNOR'S
 MANSION IN OHIO
"DON'T WORRY" IS MAIN RULING
 OF FIRST LADY OF THE % STATE

COLUMBUS, O., Feb. 1. P)-When the Vic Donahey family trooped into the Ohio executive mansion four years ago, many Buckeye mothers sighed to one another How will she do it?"
 The object of their apprehension was Mrs. Donahey
 They wondered how she would con- tinue to mother successfully her brood of ten children and still find time to discharge the arduous duties of the first lady of one of the biggest states in the country. But Governor Vic Donahey has just started his third consecutive term, and after four years of moth ering' and first ladying", his wife's face has the same fresh color as when she came up from New Phila- delphia.
 The details of giving a formal tea and of seeing that son Hal has a fresh supply of collars cause her no worry.
 Its just a lot of fun," she says, placidly. Don't ever worry" When Vic Donahey was country printer in New Philadelphia, he ad- mits candidly he didn't earn much money And the stork came often, but Mrs. Donahey never worried. l She has a few other rules of get ting along:
 Budget your money.
 Make fun of your work.
 Trust in God. I don't believe enough of us do" The Donahey's had 12 children and ten are living. In the midst of her duties as a mother and a governors wife, Mrs. Donahey has retained the pianistic ability of her girlhood and has be- come an art connoiseur and some what of an authority in Ohio on an- tiques and interior decoration.
 Two daughters have learned from their mother to play the piano and the violin.

SWEDISH CRITIC WILL
 TRACE AUTHORS PAST

STOCKHOLM, Feb. l. R-The mysterious adventures in the United States of a Swedish writer, Carl Jonas Love Almquist, will be traced by a modern literary critic, Dr. Reu- ben G. Berg, during the next several months. it1*T
 Almquist's romantic ideas are be- lieved here to have inspired some of Selma Lagerlof's work. He left Sweden in June, 1851, under different names, among them "Gustavi". He lived in various parts of the United States, supporting himself as a tutor and hack writer, until the fall of 1865, when he returned to Europe. The following year he died in Bremen.

RETURNS
CUP
By F. A. Wray

HoYLAKE, England, May a.
The British amateur golf champ
Ionship opens here today with an
entry of 1913 fewer than last
year at Muirfield and 2s less than
in 1921, when the event. was last
held at Hoylake.
The event bears little resemblance
to the strenuous contest Of last
year. Jesse Sweetser has returned
the cup and there are only II
players from overseas. The Amer
lean players are: John w. Law
renee, Oakmont; Frank c. Newton
Brookline; Joshua Crane, Brookline
w. ]. Platt, Whitemarsh Valley; w.
G. Hunt, River Oaks; w. L. Richard

OF these, the best known is w. J..
Platt, who played in the U. S. A.
team against Britain in 1921. No
body expects an American victory
on this occasion.
Other overseas players include
two from Tasmania. Len and Rob-

from Cairo, and one each from

The remainder of the competitors

land or Wales, and with the excep-
ton of Sir. Ernest Holderness Cham
pion 1922 and 1920, W. I. Hunter
champion, 1920, and Sweetser, all
the post war title holders have
entered as we'll as two famous
champions Of pre-war days, Harold
H. Hilton and John Ball. a native
of Hoylake and now in his 65th
year. Ball has won the British
amateur on eight occasions, 1888,
1890, 1892, 1894, 1899, 1907. 1910 and
1912. He also won the open in
1890, being the first amateur to do
80, and incidentally won the Irish
championship three times. 1t is
said that he is playing just as
good golf as ever.
A. F. Simpson. who was runner
up to Sweetser last year will also
take part.
Undoubtedly. in the absence of
the American ''star" element, the
competition will create much less
excitement than in recent years.
but British judges think that the
absence of the Joneses and the
Won Elms will give Britain a res.
pite that she badly needs. For
the first time since the war, the
British player will be able to settle
down under lanxiousless conditions,
and it Is hoped that one or two
really good native players will he

articles, to outline for Youngsters
some of the rudimentary facts con.
corning boxing. / do not hold to
the opinion that any illustrated
articles or written words. no matter
how elaborate. will make a great
boxer out OF a novice. But, ] do
believe that it Is possible, In series
of newspaper articles, to teach a
youngster some of the fundamentals
OF the sport. and. with such
knowledge, the boy can go along
and box with his mates and get
from such contacts a great share of
the benefits that can be derived
from boxing.
Therefore. because / would like
to have every youngster know
something basically about boxing, /
have prepared a series OF articles,

/ that boxing develops youngsters
into remarkable manhood.
No form of athletic contest Is so
splendid for the uniform develop
ment Of the body as in boxing. For
it builds up muscular strength in
the hands. the arms and the shout
ders: it develops muscular power
in the legs. And because speed is
mighty factor. and the pace is
swift and ever swifter. the devotee
must breathe quickly and deeply,
and. in this way the lung power is
built up. Action speeds up the cir
culation of the blood, and this
and its muscles, as we'll as devel-
opment of the entire organism of
the body.
When a yOungster goes in for
boxing, he realizes very quickly
that it is a contest where the
brain figures largely in the
ultimite outcome. The slow
thinker never gets very far.
A youngster must be a quick
thinker to outwit his rivals. He
must be ever on the alert. This
necessity for quick thinking teaches
even a naturally slow thinking boy
the knack of alertness at all times.

Some persons may hold to the idea
that If a youngster learns how to
box, that it will incline to be bully;
that, having acquired tn art of self.
protection, he may attempt to dem.
onstrate his power by picking quar-.
rels. But that notion is erroneous
for the very spirit of that sport
schools a youngster in the principle
OF fair play, and clean and manly
conduct
One of the most ardent devotees of
boxing was Col. Theodore Roosevelt,
late president of the United States.
Other presidents learned how to box,
and found enjoyment and physical
exhiliration in duels with gloves,
even after they were elected to the
highest office that is within the
power of America to give.
Countless governors have been
amateur boxers; so have Sem
atOrs, congressman, Cabinet Of
ficialS, mayors and legiOnS of
other men who have climbed to
the heights in political, indus
trial, financial and professional
America. They learned to box
when they were boys, and con-
tinued to derive pleasure and
health benefits by boxing
through their adult years.
And so, parents who heretofore
