PIONEER FAMILY

Frank Lynn, who lives south of the Agricultural Experiment station, came in to the Valley Settler of- flee last wedneeday to re. new the subscription he sends to his mother, Mrs. Genie Lynn at Mahhattan, Kansas.
 From him we learned that the Lynn family ceme to ths Matanuska Valley from Ad- ans County, Kansas in 1927. Mir. Lynn bought a l6o acre home ste from George Ny Ian. In 1895 he sold half of it to tho Ala ska Rural Rehabilitation Corporation and in 1888 he bought it back.
 lIr. Lynn's g main interest is his herd of dairy COWS. He is now mi lking l2 COWS. He has good acreage of hay and rais his silage = in- ports most of his grain. He believes in COWS and dairy products for monthly inc one. The Lynns have a f1ouri shing home garden and @ half acre in potat oes.
 Frank Lynn's brother, James ". Lynn is at the head of the Dairy Extension Department of Kansas State College at Manhattan.
 One visit back in the States a few years ago con- vinced Mir. Lynn that he wns exactly where he wanted to be when he is ct home in Ale ska.

RAPID REVIEW (Read minutes and go): As heady and warming as new wine ..is M-C.M's latest venture in turn ing great book into a great picture. ''Tortilla Flat, John Steinbeck's idyII of the carefree ''Paisanos among the Pines'', is in M-C-M's splendid tradi- tion of literary works faithfully pic- tured. It happens in old Monterey by the Pacific, strange world apart. Steinbeck, with his genius for depicting unusual people (''Crapes of Wrath'')), has found in his own native locale these wayward, wonderful characters. They are often in trouble but never recily bad. Love, food and drink gro tE .sr absorbing occupations and the tinklc of the guitar is ever mingled with tho sound oflaughter. Here, Spencer Tracys as 'Pilon", IS leader among those dowsi- to-earih convivials who believe that Wine, Women, and Song are essentials of the gay life. Hedy Lamar is tuf- bulent, tempting spitfre of a shapely lass-and John Garfield is happy-go- lucky Danny, who turns serious about love. Great direction stemming from Victor Fleming. He megaphoned "Cap- tains Courageous" and Gone With The Wind" among many others and again gives you something entirely new under the sun in "Tortilla Flat''.

THE MYsTERY OF ALLERGY


 A reader reports her experience with allergy:
 After reading your pamphlet I began taking ten grains of soluble potassium chloride two or three times a day.
 Believe it or not, as soon as I began taking it my sneezing spells vanished. Now I take the calcium and VtaInin D right along, twice day, and my hives also have dis appeared. The relief I experienced after the first few doses of soluble potassium chloride was very similar to that I had felt when my physi- clan gave me adrenalin.
 Now am enjoying my daily work in the Production Department of Red Cross chapter especially since I no longer wonder If my hands, feet or perhaps face will be all swollen from the hives, and I do not have to carry a package of extra handkerchiefs."
 On request I will mail copies of the pamphlets Relief for Allergy" and '"The Calcium Shortage" to any reader who provides 8 stamped en- velope bearing his address.
 Allergy is still a mystery. Tn some cases perhaps merely supple menting the regular diet with cal- ciunl and enough vitamin D to in- sure assimilation and utilization and retention of the calcium, brings relief. In others a dose of soluble potassium chloride (of course well diulteD taken immediately when the allergic attacks occurs has a happy effect. In the allergy pamph- let I mention that some physicians believe potassium may mobilize or activate or increase the action of the internal secretion of the adren- al glands-adrenalin.
 Tn other cases neither can do any harm in any case, so far as I know.
 The calcium feeding should be continued regularly over period of months. The soluble potassium chloride may be kept on hand and taken as an emergency remedy for the discomfort of the attack The calcium is corrective or preventive. The potassium is simply palliative and has no curative value, so far as I know.
 A few years ago when allergy was new-or rather when it was new to John Public--there may have been & bit of snobbishness or snootiness about having it. But, shucks, Tom, Dick and Harry have it now and it is beginning to be remarkable to find an individual who never has any at all or who Is not "allergic" to this and that.
 Now you know as much as I do, maybe more, about allergy. But any one who has had it knows 1t is no joke. On the other hand no one who is subject to allergy should take it too seriously, A bit of nuisance at times, but life wouldn't be in- teresting if ran too smoothly.

WAFFLE TIPS

Batter for waffles should never be too thick. A consistency that will pour easily will give best re- suits. It may be necessary some- times to thin with little more liquid. For variety you may add grated cocoanut, chopped cooked bacon or chopped nuts to the basic recipe. The temperature of your griddle is important, too, Be sure that it is hot enough before pour ing in the batter or the waffles will stick.

being uiscriminated against, even though there is such 8 shortage of teachers.
 Tn one large city, for example, the teacher who marries today even though she Inarries a soldier who can't support her-is per- mitted" to resign and then Is re- hired as substitute teacher, at a substitutes salary, which IS con- siderably less than the salary of a regular teacher.
 That means that a teacher with a husband fighting for his country is penalized because she is q wife. The injustice to the married teacher is just as great whether she is married to a soldier or Q civilian. For e woman should have as much right as man to both marriage and a job.

SHOULD DEMAND JUSTICE NOW

This Is no time for women to be quarreling and going out for sel- fish gains. But 1t Is 8 good time while they are needed in all kinds of work-for them to demand jus- tice for themselves.
 There is certainly no justice in either firing or demoting 6 woman because she decides to be a wife instead of an old maid.
 We women ought to do son1e- thing about that situation, while we are so badly needed that other bans against married women are being ignored more frequently.
 It isn't enough to have them Ignored. We ought to see that they are done away with. And not only that, we ought to see that the married woman is as well paid as the single woman Instead of putting Up with such schemes as that whereby the woman, who has been SO 'irdiscreet" as to marry, Is graclously permitted" to resign her job so that she can Do re-hired for less money.

WOlNAN,.S REALM
GOUying Yourself
BY AhclA MAgs
NM GervIcn StafG WrIter

If I read the stars right, . whole lot of citified beauties are going to be barefoot girls, come summer. Well-barelegged, at least.
 with stockings up in price and no world . shaking substitute in sight, many girls doubtless will go without them in warm weather. And why shouldn't they--f they look to their leg laurels ahead of timep
 The cosmetic houses have been looking, and they're all up with the wherewithal for skin glamor. Several reliable houses are mak- ing s'liquid stockings. There's one which claims it's product is the one you've been reading about in the war correspondence from Australia, where American nurses are painting on stockings and liking it. This product is a quick drying lotion-baSe one, kind to the skin. SALON INTRODUCES
 WATERPROOF PASTE
 One of the topmost beauty salons has a egstick-paste-which you stroke on and smooth in. It's water proof. You get twenty-five to thir- ty wearings from one legstick. This is a lovely toasted beige shade. Deeper hues, from suntan to nut brown. can be had in still another liquid leg makeup.
 Of course of all those prepara- tions will lcok best on naturally sunkissed legs. In fact, all are advocated for use while you're tanning.
 Women who want something between feet and shoes-and who doesn't for comfort? - will well come little knitted feet-protec- tors. Dime stores had them last summer for wear with playshoes. Better department stores are stocking them now for summer street wear. There are few silk and nylc1 caes; there's cotton for the b!" 'ess. All fit like rub Der, C sole and toes They're a hea. ltial for bare-legged girls ~ man to ward off troublesome foot infections.
