TOLERANCE
By ERVEN A. KUHLMANN

We walked into the Columbus Au-
ditorium where a lecture was being
given on Wars Adversity" The hall
was crowded and we were compelled
to seat ourselves in two seats in the
last row. We had no programs and
for few moments we endeavored to
become climated to the atmosphere Of
this huge meeting.
On the platform, man was speak

What he said, | felt, was weakened
by his manner of presentation His
stage presence was poor indeed; his
delivery apparent foible. He seemed
to grip the table before him desper-
ately and continued to stare with
haunting fiXity. He employed no ges-
lures and his voice had in it a strange
monotony. What he was asserting
about cross bearing was we'll enough

We passed few remarks back and

the speaker. We felt justified in our
discourtesy, when suddenly l felt a

compelling and distressing sensation

For coats and jackets they've waved
wands and produced fuzzy fluffy stuffs
that look like wool and have even sal
vaged some of the real thing. There
are dozens of new rabbit hair and wool
combinations in classic shirtmakers

everything from flannel to faille.
Cold-weather cottons are produced
from quilting everything from gay
chintzy keep-warm vests to important
quilted satins.
Sequins are tops for after dark, fol-
lowed closely by black jet beading.
Separate sequin collars and matching
hair ornaments turn last years "best"

Pantry Palaver

Make the greatest possible use of
to your butcher for the government.
"The important goal of the national
fat collection" explains DR.. Louise
Stanley, chief of the Bureau of Home
Economics, of the USDA, ''is to build
up the nations total fat supply. By
making good use in the kitchen of the
fats we save from day to day, by get
ting the most value out of them as
food, we naturally lessen the burden
on commercial stocks of fats" So,
use all you can for food and cooking,
then turn in what is left, or what has
become unfit for use in cooking or as
food.
Fats are perishable, SO use them
before they become rancid
Drippings from roasts make flavor
full fats for seasoning. Use in gravies,
vegetables, in salad dressings, on
wilted lettuce and in spoon bread
Bacon drippings are good for fry
ing eggs, apples, chicken, cabbage
liver and other lean meats.
Poultry fats may be used in cream
sauces for vegetables as well as in
gravy. They are good for shortening
in cakes, biscuits and other baking.
Rendered suet and fresh pork also
make good shortening for pastry and
quickbreads.
To clarity fat, mix with twice as
much water as fat and boil ten min
utes. Stir well and leave to cool
Clarified fats do not keep as we'll as
other fats, SO store in refrigerator
and use up quickly.
Fats used in deep frying should be
strained through a cheesecloth after
each use to remove any food particles
Properly handled and kept in a colo
place, this fat may be used over many
times.

Absence of Vitanin A in the diet is
now believed to be one of the chief
causes of white hair. Numerous tests
indicate that when Vitamin A is alb
sent in the diet, the hair becomes
white because there is no deposit of
pigment in the roots. Vitamin A is
the youth, health and beauty vitamin.
Lack of it leads to eye weakness and
lack of ambition, as well as greying
hair
In order to conserve Vitamin A for
human consumption the WPB has
placed restrictions on it's use in va
rious types of animal feed Existing
supplies of Vitamin A formerly OBJ
tanned largely from Norway and ia
pan are reserved primarily for the
Air Corps as it is essential that air.

to maintain good eyesight and build

For Better Homemaking

To prevent rust, give the inside of
your garbage pail coat of shellac
This also works with wire coat
hangers and wire clotheslines.
Apply pliable roofing paint to leaks
in the garden hose. This treatment
will close tiny breaks and make the
hose last longer.
To hold shelf paper or drawer lin
ings in place, whether of paper or oil
cloth, use Scotch tape.
Waxed wooden Venetian blinds are
easier to keep clean Wash with soap
and water before waxing.
Put your kitchen table on casters.
You can then roll it wherever you
want it and save many steps.
Don't waste anything, for that
means wasted money Wasted money
is wasted lives in wartime. Every
dollar saved should go for War Bonds.

Women

Here come the lady engineers! For
ten weeks they have been drilled
strenuously in engineering, drafting
and technical calculations at Stanford
University They have learned about
translating a blueprint into a part or
an airplane, gun or ship. They
have mastered the essentials of the
slide rule, the No. | tool of the en-
gineering profession.
And now, 35 of them, co-eds, moth
ers, stenographers and housewives,
begin moving into the war factories
this week to take over technical jobs
which used to belong almost exclu-
sively to males. They will be known
unofficially as "engineerettes."
DR.. Jacobsen, Stanford professor of
engineering, says they are mot only
just as good as regular engineering
students, BUT in many cases BET
TER"
The first class did so well that Stan
ford is now offering a similar one
year course, tuition free, to women
with at least two years of college
work.
