Report On State
OF The Country
Submitted TO 50th Session, Puget
Sound Conference
BY Browning c. Allen, Taooma

BY Browning c. Allen, Tacoma
The current year has been Pc
euliar for its numerous and varied
events: the events have deeply af-
fected all community life; the rise
and fall of nations, changes in
political setups, the conquest of
Dictators, the iniquituous influ-
ence of issues changing attitudes
of nations have distinctly affected
general conditions and the most
far-sighted observers have been
unable to predict just what the
ture holds, or determine a
means of adjustment suitable for
, all concerned.
International relations have
been brought very definitely to
the forefront and most astute
have been baffled.
Coming from the shades of the
late Woodrow Wilson-our Pres
ident with Churchill of England,
have in large measure restated
the pronouncements of 20 or more
years ago. The plea Save the
world for Democracy has turned
TO Save the world for humanity"
In view of these grave condi-
tons created by war abroad,
America must turn to her own de-
Tense and security. In this vast
national program, the personnel of
Army, Navy and Aviation, the
Marines, have been greatly aug
mented and production for defense
in arms and ornaments greatly
increased
AS we view the picture, to our
dep regret, we, as a group discov-
err discrimination and denial or re-
fusal on every hand, and the jobs
and positions available may only
be secured by our minority group
by continued and unrelenting per-
sistence and fight.
Probes have been necessary on
every hand and America is, in a
large sense, blind to her present
opportunity, her present dire need
to include-all A m eri C an of
whom the Negro has proved to be
her most loyal and devoted sub
ject.
Yet there are restrictions in the
army, the u. S. Navy remains lily
white-can't get in the Marines
and only recently has the govern
ment made provisions for the est
ablishment of a Negro Aviation
Corps or Division.
A glance at Europe. The Con-
tinent is not only feverishly dis
! turbed turnout, but it is in a YER
liable chaos.
Germany with her Hitler, a
master of deceit and cruelty, bred
of selfishness and desire for world
power, aided, for the moment by
Mussolini of italy have brought
about a rise and fall of Empires
and today two Dictators of two
iniuuituous world orders are lock-
ed in bloody conflict. Hitler and
the Nazis, Stain and the Com
munists. And nations are drawn
into this conflict on one side OF
the other with the Orient through
the eyes of Japan looking or
awaiting her chance for strategic
conquest.
There is a serious question, g
problem Observation-Disclosures the
u. S. is taking the safe, the sure
way, in outright support of Stair
and Communistic Russia.

Olivier brought back some seeds OF
the spinach which he found IN the
East in the open country of Persia.
Today no spinach is ever found IN
! the wild State-sO we are still IN
some doubt about the spinach OF
! ancient days.
But our popular green is well
/ known. 1t is introduced to the
Youngest member of the family at
an early date and he is persuaded
to eat his share of this green vege-
table and grow strong-"like Daddy
/ or Babe Ruth"
Spinach will grow on almost any
type of well-drained, fertile soil
where sufficient moisture is avail
able. This makes the vegetable
favorite with the home gardener. He
can plant his seeds in :. heavy clay
or peat soil so long as it is ~ich and
we'll drained. The spinach reacts
most favorably when it is given
rich friable loan and an abundance
of organic matter.
This is a fairly hardy cool-weather
| plant. able to withstand winter con-
ditions throughout most parts of
the South. In the colder sections Of
the Southern States it must have
some protection or it will be severely
injured or even killed by heavy
frost or freeze In the North, most
of the spinach IS an early spring
| and late fall crop. III some localities
this taYorite vegetable may be grown
continuously from early spring until
| late autumn.
There are several successful, va
rites. Do not confuse New Zealand
| spinach with our common spinach
| because it is not even related
Lest you do not appreciate this
green vegetable enough. let me as
sure you that from the time the seeds
are planted until the dark green
/ tender spinach is on your pla.e, it
must be cared for tenderly There
are insects that are fond, Of the
| young tender leaves Wilt ana fun
gus diseases attack the plant and
after it is cut for the market it willis
and will soon decay if it has too
much moisture applied to it. At
last when it reaches the kitchen,
it must be washed most carefully
because its leaves have crinkly sur.
faces and stems with shallow grooves
excellent places for sand to gather
grain by grain and difficult to re-
move.

Spinach
BY LILLIAN cox ATHEY.

We have been asked to eat leafy
vegetables more and more. This IS
for our own good, and it is high
time we decided to govern ourselves
in an efficient manner and eat what
is best for us in order that we may
accomplish our tasks more happily
Green vegetables should be eaten
for vitamin A. This vitamin is not
destroyed to an appreciable extent
in cooking. You do not have to
cook and serve vegetables the same
way each time, either. They can
be eaten raw. Finely chopped spin
ach with French dressing is de-
licious as a salad course. Cooked
spinach may be served in a puree,
which is thick soup.
1t is much more interesting if We
plan our meals for the purpose of
making the most out of every item
We have taken so many of our foods
for granted. AS matter of patri-

Where did spinach originate? The
Greeks and the Romans never heard
of it. 1t was unknown to Europeans
in the 10th century. There is quite
a little difference of opinion whether
it should be called "spanacha as
coming from Spain or "splcacla"
from its prickly fruit or seeds. How
ever, it has been decided that the
name comes from the Arabic "isfe-
nadsch" or "sepanach." The Per-
slams called it 'ispany' and the
Hindu "palak" Most of the writers
consulted insist that spinach Is a
native of Northern Asia According

Wedding Fashions

The use of flowers in the latest
fashion for weddings, various
parties or for dress will be
shown in the exhibits by the
florists of Detroit and Michigan.
With the mode of dress chang
ing so rapidly, the question OF
what TO wear in the way OF
flowers and how to wear them,
becomes perplexing one.
The day when a young man
bought just flowers for his date
is passed. Today, the flowers
selected must suit the style and
color of her gown as well as the
occasion. Florists are con-
stantly finding new flowers
which lend themselves to dress
purposes.
