this country that we are likely to use

in the warm weather when the chill
dren call for drink after drink. Give
them the sweetened fruit juice, but
insist that water be taken freely
between times or we shall have
children with upset stomachs and
no appetites for meals.
The drinks must be clean beyond
suspicion. A good drink taken from
a dirty glass can work much mis-
chief, and the younger the child the
greater the danger.
The drink should be cool, not ice
cold. Don't allow children to gulp
ice cold drinks, or ice cream, until
they scream with the pain in their
temples. When they have over-cold
drinks, they must sip them slowly,
and when they eat ice cream, they
must spoon it with care, taking
small mouthfuls.
These are obvious warnings, but
each summer we have children laid
up because they have taken too
many rich fruit drinks. or too many
uncertifled drinks, or too much ice

ton of the Women's Bureau of the
Department of Labor said:
while there has been much
preoccupation with employment IN
defense industries, opportunities for
the greatest number of women still
lie largely in other fields. Men
move into defense industries and
women take the places of the men
who move; or the well-trained
woman may secure a defense job
and another, unemployed and per-
haps less we'll trained, may succeed
to the job left"
So don't belittle any job you
may get. on the grounds that it is
far removed from the vital defense
work which the nations factories
are doing.
Even scrubbing floors and wash
ing dishes contribute to the defense
effort, simply because the girls who
are doing such domestic tasks are
taking the places of other women
who have gone into factories and
arsenals. The stenographer in the
front office of factory working
on defense orders is just as essential
as the workers in the shop. With
a nations morale playing such an
important part in modern war,
the cashier in the movie theater
or the girl who serves Sammy Sc
lectee an ice cream soda, is play
ing a patriotic role in national de-
fense. Such jobs may not seem
as exciting as sewing parachuScs or
making shells, but they are just
as necessary.

Children are always thirsty. When
summer comes they are parched.
"You can't possibly be thirsty.
You've had four glasses within the
last half hour" But he can be. and
he is, thirsty. He perspires freely,
he uses a great deal of energy, and
that, coupled with his habit of drink
ing, demands more and more liquid.
Pure water is the best drink he
can have and the more of it the
better, but we cannot refuse him
the fruit drinks he Graves, and the
pop. They are sweet and he loves
the taste. Besides that, he needs
sugar
When any considerable number of
people gather in one place there
are likely to be vendors of drinks.
Some Of these drinks are first rate,
some not so good, some not good at
all. Good drinks have labels. 1t is
our duty to read those labels and
to select the best drink possible for
the children. There is no excuse for
allowing a child to drink inferior
mixtures when reliable manufac-
turers label reliable goods plainly.
There Is no need for refusing q
child bottle Of pop when it carries
the label Of reliable firm.
At home the children can have
plenty Of good water, and milk.
Remember that milk is food and
don't insist that children drink
more of it than they need in the
hot weather. Milk is good for

don't press it between times. Let

juice.
Lemonade is still a fine drink for
children in hot weather. A few
drops of juice of some other fruit
will change its color and flavor and
that won't make it less palatable to
the thirsty youngster.
Orange juice is fine for breakfast,
but it, too, is a food, and not to be

Putting up a taste of summer to
flavor next winters meals-thats
what many a thrifty homemaker
is doing these days. BY means OF
tin cans or glass jars she's busy
keeping surplus garden stuff from
going to waste.
Whether canning is done on
large scale or a small scale. a steam
pressure Gamer is "must" piece Of
equipment for processing non-acid
vegetables, say canning experts in
the United States Department OF
Agriculture. Practically all vege-
tables but tomatoes come in the nom
acid class.
Following are few high lights
on the "big three" Of this seasons
nutritious vegetables.
BEANS-Snap beans, young and
tender lima beans and green table
soybeans are available now in mary
gardens. Home economists advise
pre-cooking all these beans before
packing them into cans or jars and
processing.
To pre-cook snap beans, wash,
cut into uniform pieces, add boiling
water to cover, and simmer. beans
uncovered until you can bend them
without breaking them. To pre-
cook lima beans, wash, shell, and
bring them to boil in water to
cover. In both cases, use the water
in which the beans are pre-cooked
to cover the beans after they are
packed into the cans or jars.
Can shelled green soybeans. To
shell the green beans, boil them in
the pods first for three to five
minutes. Shell the beans, then
blanch them for three to four
minutes in boiling water. Drain,
then fill them into containers to
about seven-eights capacity, cover
with boiling water.
All these beans are proceSsed at
24O degrees F. in a steam pressure
canner-whether they are canned
in pint or quart glass Jars-or IN
No. or 3 tin cans, All may be put
up in plain tin cans.
CORN may be put up in two ways
whole grain or cream style. Ihe
difference is in the way the corn Is
cut off the cob.
For cream-Style corn, cut tht
kernels by running a sharp knife
lightly over the ear to cut of the
tops of the kernels. Then scrapt
out the pulp with the back OF thu
knife. For whole-grain corn, cu
the kernels deeply enough to tak'
off most of the kernel without OBJ
tectionable hulls and do not scraps
the cob.
But whichever way you put ur
corn, preheat it before packing init
cans or Jars. And teaspoon OF sal

I'LL into containers at once.
Cream-style corn is thick ant
pasty and therefore needs longe
processing at higher temperatur'
than whole-grain corn. For tina
reason, the whole-grain corn us
ually keeps the flavor OF fresh corr
better than does cream style. Cream
style corn should be canned onl.

for both types of canned corn.

that there's a rack on the bottom

comes to a full rolling boil around

Precooking cuts down a lot of
