IN PREPARING FOOD FOR FLYERS
Ocean Airmen'S Needs Best
Met by Process of Cook
ing She Knows.
Lindbergh, Byrd, Wilkins
Among Those Who Used
Her RationS.

BY the Associated Press.
Mrs. w. O. Owen, widow of an Army
colonel, is the "godmother" of aviators
engaged in long, hazardous flights over
land or sea.
She considers it mission to pre-
pare for them supply of compact ra-
tions and Col. Charles A. Lindbergh,
Comdr. Richard E. Byrd, Capt. George
wilkins and Lieut.. G. F. Schilt are but
few of the prominent flyers to re-
ceive one of her carefully packed boxes
of food.
The food consists of dehydrated duck,
chicken, salmon, beef, fresh vegetables
and grains and is prepared by a spe-
cial process of cooking and dehydration
worked out by Mrs. Owen.
Tests Show Foods Good.
Tests made by Government agencies
at her request show that the foods so
prepared are high in vitamin content,
are satisfying to hunger, palatable and
capable Of remaining in perfect condi-
ton indefinitely.
The basic elements in the process
were worked out by Mrs. Owen during
d oOl AhC AlA lNCW R1CAANO, "AASAS oAAS NeA'
living with Col. Owen in 1894. Col.
owen commanded the first hospital ship
to be sent to Manila in 1898 and here
again Mrs. Owen used her process for
preparing food.
New elements were added to the
process when she again undertook the
study and preparation of such food fol-
possible use by the Army during the
World War. The study was abandoned
at the close of the war, but renewed
after Col. ovens death four years ago
Especially Good for Flyers.
Since the process particularly adapt
ed itself to the needs of flyers attempt
ing long, hazardous Journeys, Mrs
Owen secretly prepared boxes of ra-
tions for many of the aviators who
made aviation history in the last few
years.
Aside from this work, which she de-
scribes as lust little private interest
in the cause to which Col. Owen de-
voted his life," Mrs. Owen is a student
of literature, finding particular enjoy
nlent in French works. She spends
much of her time in what she describes
as little private researches" in the Ii
brary of Congress, where she is well
known by librarians and attendants ac-
qua1nted with her literary interests.

Advice to LOvelO1.n

} to believe him kind and trust
worthy. your love for him is not
real enough to stand the test of
marriage. Congenial tastes and q
similar station in life are also de-
sirable in order that love shall
prove suitable, lasting and true.
Join q character-building club,
such as the Y. w. C. A., the Girls
Friendly Associati ton or similar
organization of your own church,
in order TO make new acquaint-
ances. Membership in class de-
voted to the study of some sub
ject that interests you is another
way to make congenial friends.
We unconsciously try to attract
the type of person that approaches
our ideal, so you are likely to
marry a man who is in some de-
gree like your ideal. Height and
looks are less important than
qualities of character and disposi.
ton in forming an ideal, although
of course, wholesome good looks
are desirable.

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
Will you please tell me how
anyone can know whether she is
really and truly in love?
Also, please tell me how to make
new acquaintances. do not dance
but am of humorous nature, and
/ am a good locker and good
dresser.
Do you suppose every girl has
certain type of man for her
ideal, and then meets and marries
that sort? Do looks and height
count?
l thank you WORRIED.
1t is not by any means easy for
a girl to know whether she is in
love, or merely infatuated. The
best plan is to wait and let time
decide.
Love that is suitable and con.
genial, lasts and grows stronger
as the months and years pass.
Infatuation dies. True love in
cludes respect and liking. Unless
YOU can honestly respect mans
character, and have every reason

Sure Of Gettinq 7hinas Children Tease for Them

I have observed many children
who, when taken into or past
stores, tease incessantly for candy.
Thinking back into the homes
from which they have come, It has
generally been, believe, due to
a lack of sweets there. The
mother who supplies her child
with plenty of oranges, figs, dates
or apples: the mother who pops
corn, makes popcorn balls or
fudge at home once in a while
does not seem to have the trouble
about candy teasing when the
child goes downtown. IL the child
is satisfied at home with regard
to these needs it is simple mat
ter to tell him that the candies
at home are better for him and
that you will make some in the
near future.

a SAYS that 3 bride-to-be has

d bride-to.be has d sister, she
lthe sister, should be bridesmaid.
Now, G says that Il the groom
to-be has no brother. he has the
privilege Of having his sister ~
bridesmaid. Don't you think
that II the groom-to-be has no
brother, he could ask dear
friend or near relative to act =
best man, and the bride have her
sister act as bridesmaid
SALLY, IRENE AND HELEN.
Yes. agree with YOU that the
bride has the privilege Of In
vftlng whoever she wishes to -
her attendant. If she has So
ter. it is according to the best
traditions and customs that she
invite this sister to be her chief
attendant. IL she hasn't sister.
she usually invites her best friend
to be her attendant, or her cousin.
IL the cousin is very close friend.
G Is not correct: the fact that
the groom-to-be has no brothers
does not alter the brides privilege
0f giving Nher own invitation for.
her attendant. The groon-to-be
also Is given the privilege Of chOoA
ing his attendant or. attendants,
and If he has no brother he asks
