zion - if one can believe all on0 reads in the letters. I received so many letters from her, telling just how to proceed to make such pam cakes, that rather regretted I had brought the matter up. say if one can believe all one reads in let ters. This skepticism is based on a significant fact-in all these letters giving detailed instructions for making genuine buckwheat rar- cakes just one offered to submit to the acid test - gave me vague in- vitation to drop in some morning about breakfast time and see for myself. A hollow mockery, that, for, as I fear the correspondent knows, I'd have to travel many miles going and coming, and more over, as imagine the correspon- dent suspects, I'm diffident cusS and just wouldn't have the face to accept such an invitation unless a specific time and date were named in it.
 Alcoholics Anonymous
 Not long ago answered query in this column by explaining that was unable to tell the correspondent how to get in touch with a local group of Alcoholics Anonymous" as members of representatives of the excellent organization seemed bent on remaining not only anony- nous but secluded. That provoked the desired reaction. From all over the country came letters from mem bers of Alcoholics Anonymous groups offering to welcome any one I might refer to them, and am glad now that I used that method, for the fine spirit that breathes in these letters, from men and women. many of them men and women of high standing in the world of art, letters, in the professions, tends to soften the harshness of my own at- titude toward confirmed inebriates. Apparently man or woman may have been dragged down by John Barleycorn and still stage come back and become a good citizen once again. Whats more. the eager ness of these Alcoholics Anonymous to help others recover self-control A11O4CdOCo O1lC ACdoOAl W11y CAlC 4AlOVC" ment is so successful. An ex-alco- holic somehow can secure the con- fidence of an alcoholic to degree seldom attained by non-aloholic. I am glad to say am now prepared to put alcoholics in touch with AL coholics Anonymous groups in com- munities in many parts of the country.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
 Air fin Blood


 If air were injected into the blood, into 8 vein, would it kill person, and if so, how soon. Would there be anything to show what caused death? GA. O.
 Answer - Theoretically a hypo- dermic syringe barrelful of air would produce fatal air embolism in few seconds or minutes. Experimental ly it required injection of an enormous volume of air to kill an OK. If air in the blood or vein blocked vital area of heart, lungs or brain, and caused death by em- bolism, the nature of the trouble would be obvious on pathological investigation. However. you can get away with it all right in murder mystery story. Authors of such stories get away with murder every day, figuratively speaking.

Here are two recipes for sugar economy in putting up peaches or apricots. Chased syrups are used in place of granulated sugar, and the jars are leftover empty coffee and other glass containers, for which special lids can be pur- chased at grocery stores.
 Select firm ripe peaches or april cots of uniform shape, allowing 3 to 3 1-2 lbs. of fruit for each coffee jar to be filled. Prepare a syrup using 1-2 cup sugar and 1-2 cup glaSsed syrup for each cups water. Add a cracked peach pit for each quart of syrup, then boil s minutes. Remove any scum and strain out pits. About l cup of the prepared syrup will be needed for each coffee jar of fruit.
 Immerse the fruit in boiling water for about 1-2 minute. Plunge ct once into cold water for few seconds, remove the skins, cut fruit into halves and remove pits. If a large quantity of fruit is being put I'D at one time, dip the fruit for 2 minutes into bath made by using 2 tablespoons each of salt and

 Eyes need special attention these hot days.
 Less makeup on lids and lashes and realization of the importance of sun glasses, lotion and anti wrinkle cream are basic precautions against the look of August ennui around the eyes.
 If you wear eyeglasses most oi the time, your sun glasses should be made from your own prescrip- ton. Even though you do not wear plain glasses, 1t is a good idea to make a substantial investment in sun glasses. Imperfect ones might just possibly cause eyestrain - es- pecially if you wear sun glasses as much as you should. playing ten- his, riding horseback, hiking and sunbathing.

 MASSAGE LINES
 AROUND EYES
 There are special creams to elini- nate lines around the eyes. If you do not have one, plain night cream will do very nicely. Massage it with the tips of forefingers, working around and around and pressing gently at corners.
 For evening, you may like touch of eyeshadow and a bit of mascara. For daytime natural fresh-as-a- daisy look is infinitely preferable unless your lashes are colorless. In that case you will want to color the laShes-but not obviously.

 Line salad bowl with crisp let tuce. Add radish roses, quartered peeled tomatoes, slices of unpeeled cucumber, and crisp sprigs of wa tercress. Fill the center with Juli- enne strips of cheese. Serve with French dressing or mayonnaise.
 Two important food classified tions - among the basic staples recommended by the government for inclusion in the American diet = are cheese and vegetables.
 Cheese, with its highly concen- trated milk protein, its milk fat, its important minerals and Vitamin A, has long been known as a nim- portant main dish food. And Ameri- cans are being urged today to in- clude more cheese in their daily diet, because of its exceptional food value, and because of it's great abundance in this country.
 Since the vegetables from more than IS million Victory gardens are being harvested all over America from city lots and country estates, from window boxes and everybody's back yard, good cooks will rejoice that the use of cheese with vege- tables makes possible a wide va
