better you would do 1t.
How much better you could write
your letters If you knew what they
really were about.
How muci, more help you could be
to your chief II you knew what he was
trying to do. And how much further
ahead you could get In the business II
you understood something about 1t.
II you are a bright girl you stagger
around in this maze OF gueSsWork until
by questions and by continuous curios-

noyed by your questions.
If you are not a bright girl you win
stay in the job for years and never

Why don't business houses have some

Dear Miss Leeds: % When I was
younger my hair was blonde, but now it
Is a very light brown, would like to
know how much peroxide to use and
how, without harnning my hair. cd ]

tall and weigh 1T pounds. What should
I weigh? CD what Is the correct weight
for . woman ~ years OF age, 5 feet 2
inches tall? H. L. r.
Answer-It is possible to bleach your
hair with peroxide, but since you are
not q true blonde I would advise you
not to. Just use @ mild rinse after your
shampoo to emphasize the gold lights
in your hair. There Is the camomile
tea rinse made by brewing an ounce Of
dried canomile flowers In q pint Of
boiling water. Cool, strain and apply
to the hair. The strained Juice of q
lemon in q quart Of water makes an
other mild rinse. A good brand Of
lemon soap may be used for the sham
poo. Shave the soap and melt 1t to o
liquid In hot water before using it.

you are in nrst-rate health, active and

Jar Shortage

This may be year of depression, but there is one thing certain. namely, the can- ming jar business is on the upgrade. So tremendous is the demand for the familiar glass jars that manufacturers are finding trouble in supplying districts. Arkansas, for example. normally demands from to 10 carloads of jars about this time of the year. However. 50 have already been sent into the state and it may be necessary to ship more. The same condition prevails through out other sections of the nation. In New England, Connecticut Massachusetts. and Maine women are doing more canning than usual This can be determined by pur- chases of vegetables and fruits in large quan- tities plus sacks of sugar, jars rubber rings, and other paraphernalia.
 If times are worse this winter than last year the farmer will not suffer for want of food. He will have plently of his well stocked shelves and in his vegetable cellars to carry him through the next year. Crops were. abundant this year. despite the fact that overproduction meant low prices and ensuing disaster for those engaged in farm ing and truck gardening. However, we re- gard it as healthy sign to see the nation turning to canning as actively as it did there in the early days of the war. When people turn to the soil for their food and store for the rainy day we know that the end of blue days are in sight.
 For few years we thought that canning was to become lost art. While our moth CTS and grandmothers engaged in it annually as a serious occupation and one that could not be neglected our modern methods of transportation and marketing have raised havoc with canned goods, that is home can ned goods. We don't imagine that any body will ever do the amount of canning that our grandparents did. It won't be necessary for one thing. For another there are too many diversions today to permit the modern housewife to spend the time on canning. And thirdly the neighborhood store will furnish her with as good if not better in canned goods. In rural regions, not those of Connecticut but of our vast western states canning and storing of meat and vegetable will continue. We hope it does. It's all for the best
