THIS is the continuation OF Helen
Luke's article on the pots and
pans and gadgets needed by those
who are setting up housekeeping.
"A CONVENIENT economical pan
n with deep bell shaped lid
for baking. on top of the stove,
may be had in tin at the dime store
for twenty-five cents. AS to pie tins,
ETC., If there is no intention of
doing much baking on the part of
the cook, the tin or aluminium from
the dime store will do. Otherwise
better get aluminium, granite, or
pyrex pieces from a department
store.
II scarcely have to mention the
tea kettle and coffee percolator of
granite. A steam pressure cooker
for tough meats and quick cooking
of beets, etc, may be added if you
can afford it. A comrade described
his pressure cooker in this space,
some time ago. One or two granite
containers with lids, for storing
food in the ice box will also be use
full.
"A BREAD-CAN will be needed
n unless you want to keep the
bread, for economical reasons, in
make-shift cOntainer. / have
used a rooster for this purpose
with cloth folded around one
handle and over the end so that
the lid would not quite fit down.
In an air tight container, bread
will mould almost Immediately.
You can get bread can from
twenty cents up to several dollars.
/ found a new semicircular type
on sale at eighty seven cents. A
set of four tin canisters for tea,
coffee, sugar and -four, will also
be a seat help. A garbage can
completes our list of the major
kitchen equipment.
GAS to the gadgets, smaller kit
n chen implements which the
busy housewife will need. There is
the steel knife and fork for cooking
long steel knife for bread and
meats; one or two small pairing
knives, and long stone for sharp
ening knives; a large granite spoon
for stirring, and some wooden
spoons and forks. OF course the
inevitable can opener! A turner
for turning over fritters, eggs, etc
You will want soup ladle; a
potato masher; a large heavy
strainer and small fine-wi.e one
You will want also couple of small
cloth pads for lifting hot pans, and
one or two asbestos pads for placing
on fire under cooked foods to keer
hot without burning easily.
THESE are all the essential
1 things. There are hosts Of
gadgets for everything from cut
ting potatoes in spheres and spiraEs
to slicing eggs and putting fancy
frosting on cake. Walk through a
household department Of one Of
the large stores and you'll see
enough gadgets to make your head
swim in general, we would say
that il you have any better place
for your spare change, most Of
thcse things are such a nuisance
to clean and care for, and clutter
up the limited space in the kit
chen so much, that one is as well
off without Them
This concludes Helen Luke's
series for the young housekeeper.

Winter Itch

TOhIRADE w. P. of McKeesport,r
v Pa writes:-"I have doctored
the itch with many doctors when 1
had the money, and the best could
get was temporary relief. 1t can't
be an occupational disease as I
don't work at all now for three
years. I only have the itch in the
winter, when it starts to get cold.
I am not bothered at all in the
summer with it. 1 get it bad on the
hips, legs and little on one hand.
When the itch comes on 1 get it in
my eyes also. The LIDS set very
red and swell little. / hsve had
it now for over nine years"

Sensitive Skin

THIS disorder occurs in. the su-
tumn and winter and clears up
with the approach of warm
weather. The skin of some people
seems to be especially sensitive TO
cool or cold weather and such peo-
pie often suffer intolerable itching.
The condition is often aggravated
by the coarse, wooden Undertaking
worn at this season. The rich man
can go South in the winter, but
the workers must stay home and
scratch.
Dress yourself warmly and do not
wear any coarse or wooden under
clothes. Go to your druggist and
have him give you the following
mixture. Menthol go grains, olive
oil (six ounces. Rub this into your
skin every morning and night. For
your eyelids, we suggest that you
apply cold cream

TENTATIVE PLANS STATED FOR
NH FIRST PALO VERDE FESTIVAL

First Palo Verde festival for El
Centre. which it IS hoped may be
come an annual festival. is to take
place Saturday March 81, instead
of Saturday. April Z. as previously
announced. This change has been
made in order to avoid conflict
with other events already scheduled.
This festival is being given br
the Junior and Senior Ten Thou
sand clubs and 1t is hoped that
every woman and girl in the city
will participate in it. Since the
palo verde has been selected as El
Centre S tree. and since so many
have been planted and are now in
bloom. it has been decided TO name
the affair Planned by the clubs, the
Palo Verde festival.
The affair will start with q par
ade in which youngsters may enter
beautifully decorated bicycles or
may carry their dolls. The yellow
OF the palo verde blossom and the
green of the tree are TO be the col
ors used for this event. As the
tentative plans now stand. the

school at ? p. m. Saturday and

WISE USE OF
LEISURE TIME
PROGRAM THEME

The old adage. make your head
save your heels should be taken
into consideration in planning the
wise use of leisure time according
to Miss Fleda Smith, assistant state
leader of home demonstra ton
agents, who conducted a project
leaders training meeting on prob
lens Of budgeting ones time. The
meeting was held this morning at
the court house.
Formation of a plan of work
which contains elasticity periods to
allow for changes in the days sched-
ule, the Importance of not trying to
do too much but of eYaluating the
various items in the days sched-
ule. were stressed by Miss Smith.
The following points should be
taken into consideration in budget
ing ones time: labor saving equip
ment, making the home convenient,
rearranging the home both from the
standpoint OF convenience and com
fort, outlining plan of work, eval-
uating activities both inside and
outside the home. efficient meth
eds Of work, cooperation of the FAM
lily, providing place for things, liv-
ing simply.
She pointed out that the mother
who often considers herself extreme
ly unselfish is in reality selfish since
she insists en- doing all the work
herself and deprives her family of
a share in the home life, making 4
martyr of herself
Too many women stress house
keeping at the expense of home
making, Miss Smith declared, point
ing out that both activities have
their proper places.
The farm woman has four things
which she may spend, money, time,
energy and thought, and proper CO.
ordination of these four items will
lead to a well-balanced plan of
work which Will in turn result in a
fuller and happier home life for the
farm woman and her family
Often there do not seem to be
enough hours in the day for the
farm woman to accomplish all that
she wishes to do, but by eliminating
unproductive activity and by doing
those things which are most impor-
tant, she may budget her time SO
that the essentials are accomplish =

Housekeeping aboard ship where
