By HELEN VOGT.

That back-to- the-toil movement
commonly known as the return to
college is just about completed.
For the most part. college girls
have assembled their wardrobes
and now spend the last few days
gathering the odds and ends that
will be needed during the next few
months.
Among the last-minute shopping
is the search for suitable and
efficient cosmetics. and there are
number Of really excellent ones
to be found at this time. In re-
cent years, the manufacturers OF
beauty aids have come to realize
the Importance Of items designed
for young people and they've done
grand job of presenting them.
Young son and daughter need no
longer borrow cosmetics and skin
aids from mother and dad. For
tunately, there are plenty available
for the youngest member OF the
family.

known for this interest in youthful
skins. The originator believes in
thorough cleanliness and constant
care to insure good compilations
in later life, and with this idea in
mind she has brought out an entire
line Of young skin aids. OF particu-
lar interest at the moment Is her
back school kit which contains
the four essentials advocated-a
liquid complexion soap, greaseless
lubricant, overnight ointment and
protective lotion-simple items that
are we'll suited to youthful skins.
Many young girls, and boys too for
that matter, have been unpopular
and unhappy at school because OF
bad compilations, and it's really
a situation that should be remedied.
These products are the result OF
experimentation and consultation
by the originator, and judging from
the manner In which they have been
accepted. it's obvious that they fill
a long-felt need. A special of1er

been buster than ever answering
questions and sending out such
recipes-and, it Is pleasant to note,
that a great number of them have
been for some old fashioned dainty
loved and remembered since child
hood.
However, there are lots more
things to discuss nowadays than the
preserving kettle, so I think this
must really end such columns for
this year. Schools are about to
open, parties are about to begin-oh,
there's SO much to talk about, and
there just isn't enough space for it
all. So from now on, if you will
all be good enough to write or tele-
phone for some special recipe, Civ

shall send it to you by mail promptly
and with great pleasure!

counting on seeing them here today
But in the future we shall have to
confine such matters to the per-
sonal route!

choose-and pick them carefully
from their stems. Put them in a
waterless cooker or a large double
boiler. Set them over low fire, and
as they heat, crush them with pes
tie or potato masher. When crushed
as much as possible. let juice drain
in jelly bag, or through several
thicknesses Of muslin. Reheat juice
in the saucepan to the temperature
OF about 200 degrees Fahrenheit,
removing 1t from the fire before it
starts to boil. Put the juice into a
glass or enameled vessel and let
stand "a hours to settle. Drain it
from the sediment, and then filter
it through cloth. Put the strained
Juice into sterilized bottles, put the

Dog Salmon
(Oncorhynchus keta)

some way will be developed tc make
1t so extremely desirable that we
will be calling for cog salmon our
selves and think We are being orlgi-
nal.
This fish reaches a weight of 8 to
l6 pounds, is a ouskv color above,
sides a lighter shade. The spots
are rather indefinite and placed
toward the back or lower sides of
the body These are sometimes
missing in the older fish.
The head is dusky, with little or
no metallic luster. Most of tile fms
are black and in the breeding sea-
son the males have a black color
ing and brilliant red sides, which
may or may not be notified or bar
red.
In our Pacific Coast waters there
are five species of salmon: the king

and last the dog salmon. All are
abundant.
Their habits are the same in most
respects. They are what is known
as anadromous: that is, they spend
most OF their lives IN the sea and
then they enter fresh water to de-
posit their eggs And after they
spawn, males and females die. No
matter now close the spawning
grounds NAV be to their home, none
OF them lives to return to salt water.
The eggs are laid in the early
fall in shallow nest on a suitable
bed and in shallow water close to
the headwaters of fresh water
streams. The eggs hatch in the
winter and following spring, weeks
after their parents have gone to
their rest. The parents never see
their children, the offspring never
know the presence of a parent. The
young go down to the sea, some
when they are young fry, others

smaller streams that are at no great
distance from their home waters.
Eggs can easily be seen. They
do not appeal to the palate as a
food fish and when they are canned
they are even less desirable. We are
fond of the firm salmon flesh, deep
colored and highly favored, The
dog salmons flesh is pale in color,
a faded appearance that instantly
makes you think it is not fresh.
And the meat is soft and spongy.
Now YOU know why the dos salmon
has such a low rating with is, eco
nomically at least. However. vast
numbers Of these fish are frozen and
shipped abroad. There this type
is in demand and growing more

They live near their work, and on
their own initiative go to their posts
when fog descends. Or they may
be called from signal boxes. They
use 100000 detonators-or "torpe-

den from view by the fog. AS an
additional safeguard, the Great
Western railway has its own system
of automatic train control. If the

and brakes are automatically ap-
piled. The device is operated by
signalmen through an electric ramp
