UNCLE SAM ASKS NATIONS HOUSEWIVES ITO GIVE COOKING FATS FOR WAR

part of the country you live in, and turn 1t over for rendering.
 Uncle Sam is not asking you to give up one drop of fat that you are sure you can use. If you broil bacon today, catch all the drippings in crock and use it for frying to- morroW's fish - Okay. But if you roast lamb or mutton, and pour out all the rather smelly drippings - THAT'S what Uncle Sam wants. anl he wants every tablespoonful of 1t. Many women will say, off, hand, they never wasted fats. Think it over. Most of Us did waste plenty.
 DON'T WAIT
 TOO LONG
 Here are few suggestions: Strain drippings into 8 wide mouthed, clean can, for instance a coffe or vegetable oil can. Use a f1ne-mesh strainer or a piece of clean cloth. Keep this can in a cool place and add drippings until you have at least one pound.
 They last is must" The butcher won't buy less than a pound. Also you must sell the waste fat before it gets rancid.
 Take your savings to the butch CT on weekdays if possible to avoid week end jams. Take them in some thing besides a glass or paper con- tainer if you possibly can.
 Remember, fat equals glycerine equals fighting power for U. s. and United Nations soldiers. Soldiers eat butter, lard, vegetable oils. They fight with explosives, which mus be made from things that in turr are made from fats. Glycerine makes propellant powder, recoil mechan- isms of guns, ship compasses, the mechanism which hurls deptt charges overheard in naval war fare, medicine. Fats are neded fol tough paints and varnishes, fol ships, barracks, guns, tanks, planes
 Use fats at home efficiently and that means simply save ant sell what used to be wasted.

Add pennies to the weekly food budget by using parts of vegetables usually discarded.
 Peel broccoli stems and cook as you would asparagus. Peel coarser parts of asparagus for soup, using water in which asparagus was cooked. Puree the stems when soft.
 Cook broccoli and caulifiower leaves the outside lettuce and cabbage leaves, kohlrabi, turnip and beet tops either separately or together for greens. Remember green leaf vegetables are rich In essential vitamins.
 To preserve vitamins in leaf vegetables cook in very small amount of water and only long enough to make them tender. Let them come to a quick boil, then turn the heat low.
 Here's a recipe using leaves which are usually discarded:

This is the first time in the history of the event that a Cleyelander was not on the winning team. ln fact, the cham pionship has always been won by an l-Cleveland team except in 1939 when the winning team included some out-of-town players.

BEAUTY
(NEA Service Staff Writer)

(NEA ScrV1cc SCaH WFlCcrJ
 The beauty salons are all out tc help the American women hit a stride for the duration of the tire famine-and I mean an easy stride which is a must for beauty, now that you walk everywhere and work harder when you get there.
 Put your beauty on a flrmer foun- dation," one house advises cogently "A foot treatment is one of the best things you can do for your looks, because every pedal predica- ment shows in your face"
 How painfully aware of that fact most women should be. It is saic the American people spend many millions of dollars a year on foot remedies.
 WOMEN CAN TAKE
 SPECIAL COURSES
 For women who're on their fee' a great deal and have little time for added beauty routines, nowa- days, one outstanding house aptlJ combines a face and foot message One staff masseuse relaxes your toes arches, ankles, calves and knee muscles, while another does your summer facial.
 There are courses as well as single combination" treatments Minty foot cream and a final brush-of with cologne, which you can buy for home use, enhance the refreshing and beneficial massage motions. As you depart, you get a neat, written sheet of directions for home exercises.
 Footbaths are being employed widely in the salons. These are fol- lowed, in one house, by inspection by chiropodist who tells you If he thinks you need his services, and by foot massage and pedicure.

The object of the high lead was to force South in, if possible, since if North got in, he would lead trump South won the club king, and not liking to lead trumps from his ten- ace, he exited with a low heart. Dummy won and Miss Malchie pro- ceeded to ruff out all her losing clubs, South winning only his two high trumps and the club ace.
 At the other table of the match, East also played four spades dou- bled. When he got in he led low club. North won and led Q trump and two rounds of trumps daughter cd the declarer.

Glo1ityimg Yourself
By ALICIA HART

Another expert gives you her de- lightfully reviving oxygen foot bath only after you have done some of her gymnastics-for she believes all foot-relief begins with exercise and then she goes to work, mas saging, rotating your toes, employ ing oil and cream which also are sold for working out at home.
 An electrically whirled footbath is still another houses suggestion or you can have, there, massage and pedicure, or the application of a waxy glove" for the feet.
 An occasional treatment of this kind, or a course of them, will start you off pleasantly, will give you a blissfully pampered feeling, will show you exactly how to pamper yourself at home. Try 1t. And ii your war budget rules out such pro- fessional care, you ought to work out routine of your own.
 HOME MASSAGE
 IS ALWAYS GOOD
 The old-faShloned plain water footbath-just feet plunged in hot water for two minutes, then feet plunged in cold water for two min- utes-is a nice pickup for tired, overworked feet. The well known exercises-walking on tiptoe, on heels, on outside soles-are useful. The simplest massage movements for instance, just rubbing your feet and ankles and calves with circular motions-relieve tension.
 Of course, for serious foot trou- bles such as fallen arches, you really sould consult an orthopedist. Feet, especially women's feet, are delicate mechanisms, and any dis turbance in their function deserves medical attention.

Sure, we know how it is. Spring is in the air. Put the girl of our dreams out with the boy with flat feet or twenty-sixty vision, and see how much thrill she gets from the next letter she receives. Don't tell me. I'm just recovering from one of those amatory rejection slips myself ."
 MANY GIRLS ARE
 JUST PLAIN PICKLE
 A bit cynical, that soldiers let ter. But maybe he has a right to be. Twenty-Five per cent is pretty steep = when you're considering broken romances
 But all those girls didn't jilt their men just because they are soldiers and the girls prefer to play it safe with men whose feet are fiat.
 Even in peacetime there are a lot of engagements that never reach marriage. The girl who in war time will jilt soldier for a safer risk will in peace time jilt struggling young man for one whose future dosen't look like as much of 8 gamble!
 That ought to be some consola- tion to the soldier and his buddies who are in the twenty-five per cent.
 Not only that, but had they mar ried their girls there would still be a chance they wouldn't keep them. About one marriage in every five ends in divorce-without any help from war conditions.
 The trouble isn't with being a soldier. The trouble is with being in love. It's risky business-as risky, almost, as war.

Household Hints
By MARGUERITE YOUNG

NEA Service Stan Correspondent
 New York -T Two pounds of fats make shortening enough for biscuits to feed forty healthy fighting soldiers or sailors. Two pounds of fats make enough glycerine to fire five anti-tank shells.
 That's the simple arithmetic be- hind Uncle Sam's big Fats and Greases Salvage Campaign. There is this bit of chemistry to it also; biscuits require fresh fats, but muni- tionS come out just as deadly with any old drippings or suet or frying oil, so long as it's fat.
 Tn this campaign American citi- zens in general, and Mrs. Citizen and her maid in particular, are ex- pected to scrape up 5O0,000, 900 pounds of cooking fats this year.
 Sounds like heap?
 It is. But it's ony one-fourth of what went down the drains of American kitchens during an aver age year in the bad old days of careless waste.
 HERE'S HOW
 TO HELP
 That didn't matter so much - then-because the nations larder was overhoWing with fats, from both domestic and foreign sources.
 Now there isn't plenty-there is only enough, provided that none too much is wasted. In the first place, one-third of what used to come in from overseas arrived from the Philippine Islands. Besides, this year there is going out of the larder, for our own and United Nations use, over billion pounds more than went out last year.
 So, Uncle Sam asks, save the fats and grease that you might ordin- <, arily throw out. For those waste fats, though inedible, can do war work in such things as those anti tank shells.
 i Thus fresh fats will be released for use where they're essential, at home as well as at the front. There
