forts, and at the same time
inspire others to grow food to
beat the Axis"

Consumers Council
News Letter

I1lS is the time OF year
when children and grown-ups,
too, are apt to get their cloth
ing stained with the juice from
the luscious fruits of mid
summer. The Hampden Couu-
ty Consumers Institutes Of the
Massachusetts, WPA Education
Program offers some sugges-
tons for stain removal which
may help to get rid of these
troublesome stains.
If the article that is stained
is white, or fast colored, the
"tea-kettle" or boiling-water
method will probably remove
the stain quite easily. But it is
necessary to act at once and
not wait for the stain to set.
Stretch the stained part over
a wide bowl and tie it on. Then
pour boiling water on the stain
from a teakettle that is held
three or four feet above the
bowl, so that the water strikes
the stain with force. This
should remove the stain at
once. If there should be any
fruit pulp left in the stain, rub
the spot between your hands
and then try the boiling water
once more. 1t will bleach the
cloth still more if you hang it
in the sun while still wet. A
very persistent stain may be
removed by rubbing the spot
With lemon juice, after the hot
water treatment and then
hanging the material out in
the bright sunlight.
The juice from peaches
leaves an ugly brown stain ana
in peach time it's very deSir-
able to use paper napkins for
the fruit course to save the
good table linen. Usually, how
ever, the hot water treatment
will take out the offending
stain or a mild bleach may
have to be used. Never use soap
directly on a stain as it is
practically sure to set the
stain.
Grass stains can be removed
usually with hot water and
soap, rubbing the stained spot
very vigorously.
Mildew is one of the enc
mics that flourish on hot,
muggy days if cloth stands in
a dampened condition. Very |
fresh stains will often come
out after a bath of soap and |
water. Sour milk is a good !
agent also to use. Soak the |
stained cloth overnight then
place in the sun without rims
ing. Repeat several times if
necessary. Lemon juice and
salt rubbed into the stain be-
fore placing the material in !
the sun is often helpful.
If you are doing much can
ming of fruit it's good thing
to remember that fingers will |
retain the fruit stains if the |
hands are washed in soap and |
water while they are still wet |
with the stain. Rinse the hands |
in clear water and you will |
have much less trouble from
stained fingers,
The U. S. Department of |
Agriculture has an excellent |

Lives there a. homemaker who
hasn't prepared salad from the
foods in the refrigerator and cup
boards at the moment? Many times
these are more economical salads
than those taken from a definite
recipe.
Oranges, a staple item in the
refrigerator, can always be counted
on at a time like this for they're
a "sociable" fruit which combine
we'll with any other fruit. That's
why cooks who know are never
without oranges. It's easy to pre-
pare hurry.up salad, like the one
pictured, when oranges form the
base of the combination.
In combining fruits for such a
salad, If possible, one should con-
slider the contrast Of colors as a
decorative necessity. California
seedless oranges with their colorful
translucent meat and their ease of
slicing and sectioning are decora-
tive in themselves and also add to
the beauty of other fruits in a
mixed salad. At the same time,
oranges furnish beneficial food ele-
ments for health vitamins A,
B, and c, calcium, phosphorus and
iron all Of which promote
growth and aid in the development
of perfect teeth and good bone
structure, and build resistance to
infections.
The foods selected for the Cali
fornia Salad Plate include three
California navel oranges, one avo.

prunes, six walnut bonbons made
from one-fourth to one-half cup Of

FEEDING THE FACE


We religiously feed our bodies
but so often neglect to feed the
face. And strangely enough,
one of the finest foods for the
face is just the same rich diet
we give our bodies-rich cream.
The beauties of ancient times
knew how very splendid milk
and cream we're for the body
and some we're extreme enough
as to battle the whole body in
milk. However, we will go as
far as to Say-do use some Of
that rich coffee cream on the
face both to cleanse it as we'll
as to massage with it. You will
find your wrinkles fold up their
tents and depart after you have
continued this treatment for
some time. Try it and find our
for yourself.
LEG STOCKINGS
Leg stockings, or skin stock
ings, as you will, can be made
to look like real things if you
will add brown pencil line up
the center of the back after
rubbing over the entire leg q
thin coating of colored lotion
selected to suit your taste. No
one need worry any more about
runs for there are no more un-
dependable threads to catch in
the finger nails and ruin an
expensive pair of hose. Really,
the natural hose are very at
tractive and one becomes proud
of ones handiwork in making
them appear artistic. Try it.

bonbons are prepared by rolling
balls of cream cheese firmly; then
place cheese ball between two
walnut halves and fatten the ball
somewhat when pushing the wal
nut halves into place. These are
tasty bits to place on the salad
plate.
Many other greens might have
been used. Among the most popu-
lar are romaine, watercress, endive,
chicory, the inside leaves of raw
spinach, parsley, mint, Chinese
cabbage, or red and green cabbage
leaves. Often a combination Of two
or more green's are chosen in order
to produce light and dark green
background for the fruits on the
plate.
An appropriate salad dressing
you'll enjoy serving with this
speedy salad is the following Sun
kist Special Salad Dressing. It's a
delightful blend Of spicy foods for
those who do not care for oil and
may be used on any type of salad.

The number of these women is un-
known. They are seldom mentioned
even in reports of the anti-Nazi
underground because the victims of
their work rarely know who be-
trayed them.
We do not know how many men
and women have been executed or
committed to torture and slow death
in Nazi concentration camps
through the work of Frau Juettke' S
agents. Their assignments" are
known only to themselves, to Frau
Juettke, and to Heinrich Himmler,
chief of the Gestapo.

But last year a beautiful French
girl who was actually a member
Of the patriotic underground pre-
tended to be in sympathy with the
Nazis and after months of close
examination by Himmler's agents
was assigned to the women's de-
partment of the Gestapo. For a
whole year she saw the mysterious
women's Gestapo from the inside.
When she escaped, she wrote the
report from which this story is
taken.
The female Gestapo agents most
deadly weapons are beauty, glamour
and immortality. They must be
young. Girls who can sing or
dance are preferred. The agents
have nothing to do with the exc
cution or arrest of their victims.
1t is their job to make men fall in
love with them-and then report
their confidential remarks to Ges-

tongue. And it's their "job" to sac
rifice themselves-Gestapo agents
cannot hold onto their morals and
their jobs at the same time.
Suppose you were Nazi woman
and wanted to work for the Gestapo.
For months after your request was
registered, black uniformed secret
police dig into every corner of your
past life. First of all, are you an
ardent Nazi? Have you been a
party member from the beginning,
or only for short while? Did you
ever belong to an organization which
worked against Hitter? Or were
you perhaps connected with some
Nazi official who has fallen by the
wayside in purge of men Hitler
considered 'too ambitious" or else
not rabid enough?
If you have travelled outside Ger

men In black uniforms, caps with
silver skull and crossbones, daggers
at their belts and high black boots,
tramp heavily down the corridor.
From the moment you enter the
door to the time you enter Frau
Juettke's ofiice on the top floor,
you will be escorted by an armed
SIS guard.
On the top floor the corridor Is
empty and silent. There are rows
OF doors, each with certain letters
and abbreviations. At a large iron
door your SIS guard knocks, and you
are ushered in. This is the womens
department Of Gestapo.
A uniformed Gestapo woman will
lead you through three more rooms
before you finally arrive at the
inner sanctum, where Frau Juettke
gives orders through which count
less people are executed or impris-
oned every year. Frau Juettke is q

will try to trip you up in a fast and

undergo several weeks training dur
