RANKIN FAVORS
ONE UNIT ARMY

Representative jeanette Rankin, re-
publican, Montana, has an idea that
developments in warfare in the last
10 months may make it necessary to
reorganize the whole military estab-
lishment into one unified department.
Miss Rankin expressed that idea In
speaking to the house. She said pri-
vately that she might introduce a bill
to put the army, navy and air corps
under one central organization head,
with each functioning separately as a
subordinate department.
Someone said, she told the house.

and buggy age. Neither are we in the

Paraffin, cover tightly and store in

@. Why do air pockets form under
the paraffin on my jellies and jams?-
Eleanor NJ
A. Air pockets under the paraffin
are usually due to the thickness of
the paraffin. If the coating is too
heavy, it will not be elastic enough to
keep the shape of the jelly as it cools,
in which case the paratfin and jelly
surface may separate and form pock-
ct. The paraffin coating should be
only about Is inch thick.
@. What is pectin?-Mrs. D. E. L.
A. Pectin is the natural "stiffener''
in fruits. A certain proportion of pectin,
acid and sugar Is necessary to jel

A. Your question is closely related
to Mrs. D. E. LIS. Strawberries have
so little pectin Of their own that they
won't jell by themselves, and this nat
ural stiffener must be added to your

CHICAGO, Jan. 18.AThe two
biggest" winter home furnishings
markets which since January 6 have
been running a, a swift pace ended
today with new records written all
over the official archives.
Managing Director Percy Wilson
said the international home fur
niShings market in the merchandise
mart was unprecedented" in at
tendance and dollar volume for anv
market in the mart's history. There
were 11.750 buyers, an all-time rec
ord, and sales of some 1900 eXhibi-
tors averaged 25 per cent above last
year. The previous buyer attend
ance record. II ,060, was set last year.
Stocks Enlarged.
Retailers purchases pointed
toward trend to higher quality
merchandise which called for a
stepping up of retail stocks to con-
form with consumers preferences" "
Wilson said. The buyers purchases
were largely stimulated by an in
creasing purchasing power created
fundamentally by the defense pro-
gram now spending reported $780,
100000 a month.
Every indication points toward
one of the best home furnishings
years in the country's history, and
1941 retail home furnishings sales
should reach a total of s2,175 100000
if present conditions continue
throughout the year
President Lawrence H. Whiting
of the American Furniture Mart
said the National Home Furnish
ings Show there was "the biggest
market in history from the stand
point of both attendance and sales. "
Sales Climb Sharply.
Buyer attendance mounted to H.
900 for the first time in this mar
ket's history and probably will hit
10000 today. The previous all-time
high was 1855 last year Exhibi-
tors reported an average sales gain
of 18 per cent over last year, with
some lines running as high as 40
per cent Price increases averaged
per cent.
Whiting said factors contributing
to the big business included re-
tailers' low inventories due to larger
sales in 1910, buyers desire to assure
early delivery of new stock in an
ticipation of strong consumer buy
ing this spring, the defense program
creating new employment and pur-
chasing power and new residential
