MAY CAN PEACHES WITH OR
WITHOUT SUGAR

A real contribution to the scar
city of sugar in canning is that
peaches may be canned in their
own juice or in a thin sugar syrup
says Miss Eleanor Winters, ex-
tension nutrition specialist of the
Pennsylvania State College.
With the bumper crop of peaches
es this year, homemakers can take
advantage of this fruit which re-
quires little sweetening, Miss Win
tiers said. However, a little sugar
may be added to help hold flavor
and color longer, she pointed out.

Disaster on the Way
! AS SHE backed the station
1 n wagon out the driveway, the
hiss of the spraying machine in
the grove stopped, and the sprayer
hailed her. She left the car and
ran down between the rows of
Waxy-green orange trees to the
spray truck, her sandaled feet dip
ping into the fresh-ploWed earth.
"Tell your Dad the red spiders
pretty thick this year! Givin' 'em
a heavy dose" The man wiped
sweat from his red face with
his forearm adding sardonically,
probably wasting the spray
though. A heat spell'll kill 'em
anyway"
Sunlight sifted in gle ming
shafts of gold over Rita's small
straight figure as she said firmly,
We're not having a heat spell
this year. Two years of them is
enough"
Two years has been more than
enough, she thought bitterly as
she drove the station wagon along
the winding valley road. How the
valley had changed! The gently
rolling hills were burned the color
of dry straw. White dust raised
in pillows behind the car-grim
reminder of the drouth that had
lowered the water level in the
valleys two wells to the danger
point. If they had another early
heat wave this year with no water
to combat it!
Why did all disaster seem to
strike at once? Was it only eigh-
teen months ago that the wire
about her mothers illness had
been delivered to her Office in San
francisco? And, as though her
mothers illness and death weren't
enough of a crushing blow, now
Ter father must be plagued with

lat seemed to be turning into

The Letter
D ALSTON patted her hand anc
N grinned ruefully. Despite the
white hair and telItale lines, his
face was young when he smiled
as young as his eager, purposeful
eyes. She dropped the magazine
onto the desk. He glanced with
deep interest at the article. "3,.
100000 gallons of concentrated
juice shipped already-being dis
tributed free from pharmaceutical
houses in Europe to children un-
! der 2 years." he 'murmured with
deep satisfaction.
I'D say you were doing your
part for Defense" Rita grinned,
and then she casually handed him
his letter. She noted his quick
tense frown when he saw it, and
the trembling of his hands as he
tore it open. A moment later She
wished violently she had lost the
thing altogether, for as he read,
the color drained from his face,
blue veins showed in the clefts of
his high temples. Rita ran for a
glass of water and made MIN
drink it.
He thanked her, then got heav-
lily to his feet and went to look
out of his Office window down
over the sunlit orange and lemon
grove patchwork of his beloved
valley.
Tears rose to Rita's eyes in
rebeliious flood even as her fists
clenched for control. She had
fought constantly during these
trying days and months to keep
her quick, spontaneous laugh, her
ready wit, holding on as a drown
ing man holds to the last floating
spar while great tidal wave of
hopelessness seemed about to
sweep around her. She could
stand it no longer. What was it
that was STOPPING her fathers
straight shoulders, marrying his
valiant spirit? She crossed to him

He smiled at this, while his eyes

thoughtfully. But I've broken

Without a word, Ralston handed
