There is a slight improvement in
his majesty's condition.
A person in high authority at
Buckingham palace regarded the
bulletin as satisfactory. He pointed
out that the restlessness, reported in

not discouraging but merely an in
dication that the gradual recovery

THE old housewife who used to sneer at the
- young bride who "fed her husband out Of
q tin can" has laid aside her hammer and
turned to the growing ranks of those who
march beneath the banner of the can-openeT.
Before the passage of the Federal food and
drugs act, q generation ago, suspicion and en-
nifty were felt for the inoffensive can-opener
and for the food it set upon the table. Dis
honest and careless Gamers not only had given
the canning industry black\rye, but had even
offered ruinouS competitions to the honest
professor. The factory product, it was said,
commonly could never equal that put up by the
housewife. The can-opener was held up as the
wrecker Of happy new homes, the symbol of the
approaching decadence of the culinary art in
America.
Now, however, the housewife casts a calcu-
Iating eye over the probable cost Of raw mate
rails, the hours to be spent over steaming ket-
ties, the jars to be sterilized, the chance Of
scalding her hands, and then puts on her hat
and trots down to the store to buy herself a
can Of tomatoes, peas, corn or whatever her
fancy selects.
This change represents the shift In Ameri-
can social and economic habits brought about
by the gradual passing from home canning to
factory canning, where mass production meth
DDS have brought a low unit cost for products Of
q standardized nature, free from aduteration
and contamination.
Twenty years or more Of constructive effort
on the part of the canning industry, backed by
the continual pressure in behalf Of sound honest
products exerted through the enforcement Of
the Federal act have been responsible for the
confidence now felt in canned goods.
When the act went into effect. honest can
ners were forced to compete with dishonest

Canned Food Achieves Dignity.

rivals, whose cans were often slack-filled
Water was q handy substitute for the food
which should have been canned, and the water
content sometimes ran high. Low-grade and
sometimes partially decomposed foods were
packed and the use Of artificial colorS and pre-
servativeS was common.
The Gamers Bible" Food Inspection De-
cision IA, issued by the Secretary Of Agricul-
ture, says in part:
Canned foods will be deemed adulterated il
they are found to contain water, brine, Sirup,
sauce or similar substances in excess of the
amount necessary for their proper preparation
and sterilization. The can in canned-food
products serves not only as container but as
an indicator of the quantity therein. 1t should
be as full Of food as Is practicable for packing
and processing without injuring the quality or
appearance Of the contents.
Some food products, such as tomatoes, for
example may be canned without the addition
of any substance whatsoever. The addition Of
water in such cases is considered adulteration.
Other foods may require the addition of water.
brine, sugar Of strip, either to combine with the
food for its proper preparation or for the pur-
pose of sterilization, as in peas. In this case
the can should be packed as full as possible with
peas and should contain only enough water to
cover the product
BY limiting the amount Of water allowed In
canned foods, as well by requiring the cans
to be true index Of the amount of the con-
tents, the officials believe that they have done
much to assure the buyer of many-per-cent
greater return for her money. The old water

tions Of confinement do not cause riots in
themselves They merely give these dominat-
ing characters something tangible to point out
to their followers reasons why they should
rebel. The majority of riots such as We have
had recently are fomented by a few dominat-
ing characters simply and solely because they
are in and want to get out.
Dangerous as these brute strength bad men
are, however, they are not nearly so much to

qualities real genius for leadership. Scattered
about Americas prisons are some men who
have potentialities of real greatness within
them and who would be leaders in any line

They have education, intelligence, courage and
determination and, probably most valuable Of
all, the ability to secure and retain the loyalty
Of other men. This is a real loyalty, based on
affection and not on fear.

There has been a lot of argument
as to whether or not Lefty Grove
could stop the Cubs. Personally 1
figure that good pitcher can pitch
against any club and beat them.
And Lefty Grove, you can take 1t
from me, is a good pitcher. The
Cub record against left handlers
has been very good all year. But
they have been beaten by left
handlers at that-and if there's any
lefthander in the game today who
can beat them that lefthander is
Grove. Provided, of course, he is
right on the day he pitches.
Experience against the Athletics
has shown that if they have
weakness in hitting it is against
right handlers of the side-arm, fast
ball type. Root understand, is that
very sort of pitcher. And Malone
and Bush are somewhat of that
type too.
Walberg Hard to Figure
I have a sneaking bunch this will
be a three-pitcher series. I figure
the Cubs will use Bush, Malone and
Root. and think Connie will de-
pend almost entirely on EarnShaw,
Grove and either Walberg or Quinn.
To my way of thinking Walberg is
the big puzzle of the series. There's
