"I've just come home from
Ahon-and you ought to see
Eleanor's boys! Busters, both
of them" Mrs. Kendall chat
tered on and Susan slipped away
to make sure that Anna had
plenty of hot water ready for
the eggnog.
In the dining room Uncle
Worthy stood over the punch
bowl, his arms bowed out stiffly
because the arnholes of his best
coat were too tight for him. He
had been pouring his "bitters"
into the eggnog and a rim of
yellow foam on his upper lip
showed that he had been tast-
ing it.
The hall was filled with new
arrivals when Susan started back
to the parlor a few minutes
later, and the telephone was
ringing above the sound of
voices. She stopped and an
Swered it.
Hello! Merry Christmas,
Susie!" Sara Cullen's voice,
high and cheerful, greeted her.
"We're getting together a dunk
ing party over here, and we
want to know if there's any
chance for you to break away
and come over.'
What on earth could a dunk
ing" party be, Susan wondered.
The party was in full swing
and everything was going along
swimming. "I'll start right
over, sara" Susan said into
the mouthpiece of the tele-
phone.
AS she went upstairs she
could see Uncle Worthy doing
a sort of cake walk across the
dining room, carrying a cup of
egg nog to Mrs. Kendall. Lutie's
great friend, Miss Jessie Bunts..
was standing beside the table.
When she thought no one was
looking she slipped a piece Of
white fruit cake into her
beaded bag and went on eating
another piece that she held.
In her own room Susan hum
med softly as she took off her
satin slippers and put on a
pair of patent leather ones,
elated at the. thought of spend
ing the rest of the day at the
Cullens', excited at the thought
of really becoming acquainted
with Mr.. Soles.
All at once she found herself
wishing passionately that she
had something new and stun
ming to wear-something that
would make her look as strik-
ing as Mary Cullen always man
aged to look. Something that
would make Allen Soles look at
her the way Susan had seen
young men look at Mary, as if
they couldn't take their eyes
away from her. 1t would be
wonderful to be able to attract
:. him that way. Thrilling.
mo chance, though" thought
Susan sensibly, with Mary on
the job"

were the same length.

with the IL
quid in which you pre-cooked
them. When you serve this
home canned food, serve juice
and all.
Saving the vitamins is a
somewhat different problem.
We look for a good supply of
these to all vegetables and
fruits. Vitamin A fortunately,
is not much affected by the
cooking process. But both vi
tamins B and c are affected
by heat, and by oxidation.
Destruction of Vitamin B
takes place most quickly when
there is both heat and water,
and to save this Vitamin, short,
quick cooking at the boiling
point or just below, is best.
This usually solves the prob
lem to a great extent.
Raw Vegetables
Vitamin C, however, is more
difficult. It is very easily de-
stroyed by heat and by oxida-
tion. That is why We are always
urged to eat so many vegetables
raw.
But, at the time of year when
fresh fruits and vegetables are
out of season, and expensive to
obtain, we must sometimes re-
sort to canned ones, and it is,
therefore, important to know
how to conserve the vitamins in
canning. In one thing we get
a "lucky break"-tomatoes, the
best of all Vitamin c containers,
will provide it whether raw,
cooked, or canned.
Unlike the non-acid veget-
ables, tomatoes do not lose
much of their Vitamin c con-
tent when cooked or canned
their acidity protects it.
To save Vitamin B and Vita
min C, cook everything as short
a time as possible, just at the
boiling point, or below. AS to
canning, here are two points
that are emphasized by the
Bureau of Home Economics
First: Can fruits and veget-
ables as soon as possible after
you bring them from your gar
den. If they are allowed to
stand around, even in a refriger-
ator, they lose much vitamin
content.
Second: Use the hot pack
method, and work fast. The
short pre-cook before you put
the food in the cans drives the
air out of the tissues. This
helps save food values because
the air has bad effect on vita
minis. Also, the hot pack makes
it possible to shorten the time
the food has to stay in the
water bath or the steam pres
sure Gamer for processing.
Fruits Easy
Fruits and tomatoes are the
easiest foods to can at home,
and they are also better
sources of Vitamin c than the
non-acid vegetables. They are
easy to can because they may
be safely processed-that is,
heated in the cans to kill the
bacteria that cause Spoilage,
either in a water bath, or in
the oven.
To be safe, the non-acid
vegetables, such as corn, peas,
beans, etc., must be proceSSed
in a steam pressure cooker, &C
cording to the Bureau Of Home
Economics, because, for non
acid foods there is no other
way you can be sure Of tenn
peratures high enough to kill
the bacteria.
If you wish specific directions
for canning any particular
fruit or vegetable, and you
will write me, enclosing a
stamped, self-addressed en-
velope, shall be only too glad
to send you the information.

 Arm Once Thought Gone" -.-.
 Rowe signed with the Tigers when he was Is years old and in the eighth grade. After seasoning with Beaumont in the Texas League, he came north with the Tigers and great things were ex- pected of him.
 Then one afternoon last summer, playing against the Philadelphia Athletics, he fielded bunt and whipped a fast throw to first. Something in his arm seemed to snap, he said, and this spring his arm continued to bother him.
 Manager Cochrane, despairing of any chance of Rowe recovering, planned to send him back to Beau mont. The expected loss of Rowe
The Daily Alaska empire., 1934-08-16

was a blow to the Tigers, who felt Rowe was coming star.
 Then came the return to form which Cochrane now says is one of the biggest reasons the Tigers are serious pennant contenders. Rowe is one of three Tiger pitchers who had notched at least 10 victories before the end of July.
 "If thls nere oid arm of mine ever goes bad, I sure am agoin to work my head off to get in the outfield," Rowe says, revealing his pride in batting average of close to 300 and the fact that Manager Cochrane uses him occasionally as a pinch hitter.
 "Outfielding means you can step up to that old plate three times, sometimes four and five times a day and take your cut at that old apple. Say, mister, that's the fun of baseball!"
 Rowe is just big, likeable kid to his teammates. He pitches best when interested, and Manager Cochrane, knowing Rowe likes to pitch in front of crowds, sent him against the Tanks twice in their recent crucial series, the School boy winning both games.

 Lynwood "Schoolboy" Rowe, 21 years old, six feet, four inches tall, 205 pounds, grinned confidently in the manner befitting the youngest member of a pennant-aspiring ma- jor league baseball team and one of the teams leading pitchers.
 The Detroit Tigers are agoin' to win the American league pen nant," the Schoolboy added, "and I'm agoin' to do everything I can to help"

Dance Pair on

The Dude Ranch on the Wash

two miles beyond Maryland Uni
versity, continues to pack them
in night after night. This weeks
floor show consists of Betty and
Lorraine, a dance team of unusual
merit. This team was part of the

Theater. Isabel Hamilton, a YER
Satile dancer, does a tap and aero
batic dance, and Wilda Taylor,
newcomer, sings the latest songs.
One of the things which added
to the popularity of the Dude
Ranch is the Dude Ranch OrcheS-

directed by Ralph Garren. Each
member of this band can do spe-

Overbleached hair, hair that

to go regularly to a good salon
