No Delaware strawberries should
go to waste this year.
After you have made plenty OF
allowance for an abundant supply
of fresh strawberries, plan to make
the strawberry season last the year
around in canned Strawberries,
strawberry preserves and straw
berry juice.
Strawberry juice may be new
conner to your pantry shelves, but
/ predict it will be one of your most
popular reserves. Many berries
this year will have been damaged
by too much drought or too much
rain. These berries may be sal
vaged in juice.
Recipe for Strawberry Juice
To make strawberry juice first
wash and Gull berries, being very
careful to cut off any damaged
spots. Then allow one half cup of
sugar per quart of berries, mash
the berries and sugar together. Put
the kettle of berries over a low
flame and simmer slowly for about
twenty minutes or until the berries
are thoroughly cooked. Strain the
Juice through cheesecloth, a jelly
bag or linen cloth.
After the juice is strained, allow
it to stand overnight. Then pour
it into clean scalded jars, taking
care not to disturb the sediment
which may have settled to the bot
tom.
The Jars Of Juice should then be
partially sealed and heated in a
water bath. Allow ten minutes af-
ter the water bath has begun to
boil.
Recipe for Strawberry freserves
Strawberries are delicious pre-
served whole. The United States
Bureau of Home Economics recon-
mends one pound of sugar to one
pound of berries. If you allow the
berries and sugar to stand in lay
ers together overnight before cook
ing them, the berries will be more
firm and won't cook to pieces
Then, too, the juice will be extract
ed and no water will be needed.
Avoid overlooking strawberry
preserves. Fifteen to twenty min
utes is usually plenty of time tc
thicken the syrup and make the
berries plump and transparent. Put
into sterilized containers end sea
Immediately.
If you make juice and preserve:
at the same time you can select
only the largest most perfect
strawberries for preserves and use
the smaller less perfect ones fol
juice.

minutes. Then add eggs, cook slowly
until thickened. Cool thoroughly.
To make andwich:-Spread both
slices of bread with butter, then
one slice with tomato sandwich
filling. Put together and cut in
finger lengths, squares or triangles.
To make rolled sandwich
loaf of unsliced bread into 2 or 8
pieces. Then slice bread length
wise, spread each slice with butter
and sandwich spread and roll.
Brush with butter and toast in
broiler.
Bean with Bacon Sandwich Filling
L can condensed bean with bacon
soup
Il cup chilli sauce
2 tablespoons salad or mayonnaise
dressing
Empty the bean with bacon soup,
just as it comes from the can, into
a bowl. Add the chilli sauce and
salad or mayonnaise dressing and
mix well.
To make sandwiches:--Spread
one slice of bread with butter and
the other slice with the Bean with
Bacon" filling. Put together with
lettuce or cole slaw.
Makes $40 sandwiches.
Note:-This mixture may be
stored in refrigerator.

FIVE MINUTES IN

Cecilton, Md.

A certain man Of big business
loved to travel but the pressure OF
his responsibilities prevented him
from leaving the city. His ingen-
ious mind, however, found a meth
cd by which he could get away
from it all and enjoy, if only five or
ten minutes at a time, the relaxa-
ton of travel.
When he became tired and his
nerves grew tense, he held up all
appointments, pushed his work
back across his desk, got out some
travel folders and illustrated book
lets that pictured a delightful spot
in some far away country.

found him doing this very thing.
In the outside waiting room were
a large number of business people
waiting to see him. But there he
was, sprawled out at ease in his of
fee chair, eating ice cream, and
looking up some facts in Railway
Guide.
He confessed to his friend that
he was ''mind-traveling" and that
just at that moment when his
friend had come in, he was, by his
imagination, and with the help of
pictures, walking along the rock
bound coast of Cornwall in lower
England. He described to his
friend how, in his imagination, he
had just seen the long high green
waves break into white foam as
they smashed against the drab
rocks.
Sounds crazy, doesn't it? But
maybe it isn't so crazy after all.
Those quiet relaxed five minute
mental ecursions into distant lands
brought him back relaxed, refresh
ed, and renewed in mental vigor to
cope with the problems that await
ed him.
Wouldn't it be a helpful thing if
in some similar method, we could
relax our minds and by prayerful
meditation take a five-minute trip

DETROIT, Mich, March 20. = Because city-bred Halina Tomski Tullis has shifted her interests from mermaid to milkmaid, there will be a new national aquatic queen in the free styie sp..nts this year.
 The pretty Detroit girl who holds the national A.A.U. championship at 100 yards is tco occupied with agricultural affairs these days to give consideration to defense of her title at Buffalo this month.
 A year ago the busy mermaid was married to Fred Tullis, owner of a 350-acre dairy farm near Monroe, Mich, and instead of shuffling off to Buffalo the newly weds enrolled in a scientific farm ing course at Michigan State Col legs. It was there that Halina's city-to- farm movement had its origin.
 No More City Life
 Mrs. Tullis, who spent her first q years in indust.i ial Detroit, ad- mits that. once she scarcely knew that potatoes grow underg' .ld'' but now she says the faTr. L5 such gorgeous place tha, wouldn t go back to the city to live for any, thing"
 T attend all the farm meet ings," she ventures quite proudly. Social life can wait if there is a Holstein meeting anywhere in the community"
 Mrs. Tullis, who also has held variously the national A.AU. cham pionships at 220 and 40 yards, has participated in competitive swim ming for five years. Her brother, Waldemar, holds seven national col legiate and western conference re- cords established while at the University of Michigan.
 Swim Climax
 On her 21st birthday last March, Halina won the 100-yard title at Miami Beach, Fla. She now has decreed that, so long as there's farming to be done, the achieve ment will mark the climax of her aquatic career.
 Halina met. Tullis in 1888 during meet in which she unofficially cracked the l00-yard world record at Toledo, O. Among the first to

SCHOLARSHIPS, STUDENT LOAN
 AT UNIVERSITY Many Helped af Alaska h. stitution by Gifts
 of Patrons

The Student Loan Fund of the University of Alaska, through the efforts of Mrs. Frances Cribbs of the Anchorage Woman's Club, came into existence in 1926. By June l, 1888, this fund amounted to S1 ,258.86.
 In the meantime the Fairbanks High School Alumni Association started fund which on the above date had reached a total of $534.O2.
 Desiring to be of assistance to students attending the University Of Alaska, Senator Lawrence c. Phipps of Denver, Colorado, in 1880, loaned to the Board of Regents without in- terest and for period of ten years the sum of $5,O0O. This loan came due last September and has been paid.
 Shiels Donation
 In the meantime the Student Loan Fund has received donations of S1,- 900 each from Archie w. Shiels and William Timson. The last donation is the sum of $500 from Peter and
 
 Adolph Schmidt to establish a fund to be known as The Leopold F. Schmidt Loan Fund"
 The rate on all loans is 4 per cent per annum Loans are limited to $500 and to one year. Any regularly enrolled student who has attended the University one semester IS eig- ible to apply for a loan. All loa [ now require an approved surety and are made for University expenses only.
 During the period student loan funds have been in existence at the University of Alaska 538 loar>; amounting to $73,113.58 have been made. On January 3l, 194l, earnings of the funds amounted to $3,633. .02. At present there are 10 loans fulfill ing the purposes for which the funds were donated.
 In the administration of the fund it is found that students who are depending upcn themselves for the major, if not the entire amount of money necessary to secure an edu- cation, make use of it in business like way They fully appreciate the high moral obligation to pay and know that in so doing they are mak- ing possible for others the same kind of help that was made possible for them. They prefer to go the inde- pendent way. They are not looking for gifts. The Student Loan Fund

Bunnell of the University of Alaska that six scholarships of $250 each will be available for first year students, residents of Alaska, and enrolling at the University with the opening of sessions in September, 1941. Last year, three scholarships, one each in agriculturee, fisheries and mining were provided, following a policy adopted by the Company and now operative throughout the United States. In the States the scholar ships are awarded in Agriculture, but in Alaska an exception is made and Alaska's major industries are on the list.

The horrors of a Fascist or a
Communist Europe are now parad-
eel before us. If Nazi Germany wins
this war over a PROSTATE England,
there can be no doubt that all Eu-
rope will be Fascist But if Russia
and Britain win together, though
some of Europe might be engulfed by
Russia in Communism, England and
other centers of freedom would re-
main. How they might fare with a
bigger and broader Communism on
the continent one cannot know, but
one can be pretty sure that they
would have chance to rebuild free
dom, whereas a Nazi victory means
an immediate and total blackout
with no chance for freedom at all.
The American people are not in
terested in choosing between Com
munism and Fascism, in splitting
theological hairs from twin dogs.
The American people are interested
in freedom, and in a free world in
which peoples may develop such po-
litical and social institutions as seem
to them good.
