in line with what I told you last
Thursday-that it Is up to us to ease
pressure on transportation facilities
and to release other essential foods
for war use, by making the most of
these Victory Food Specials when
they are presented to us.
This past week onions have been
the leading victory food special
Just to show you how it works, the
stores have been offering special
advertising and prices to help move
the extra heavy supplies resulting
from tremendously large crops in
Texas, California and Georgia. The
last-named State has not featured
in the onion picture in other years
this year it has forged ahead until
most of the supplies for the Eastern
part of the country will come from
the section usually associated with
peaches.
Prices for onions at this period
have been lower than Is usual al
this time of the year, and much
lower than onions have been during
the past few weeks.

V.EmbIem Indicates
Surplus Supplies
OF PeriShabIes
By Betsy CasweH,

Women's News Editor.
If you've been bright-eyed and
on the job lately, you may have
noticed a new symbol cropping up
in displays and advertisements of
foodstuffs around town. You may
have wondered what 1t was all about
and you may have been interested
to inquire and get the facts for
yourself. If you have, more power
to you-you are one Of the home
'front.' soldiers to be counted onl
The emblem, which we are repro
ducing here, so that you may famil-
iarize yourself with it, has been de-
vised by the Agricultural Marketing
Administration of the United States
Department Of Agriculture, to desig-
nate certain foodstuf1s, primarily of
a perishable nature, that must be
disposed of as rapidly as possible
This results in a long chain of
benefits that ultimately aid the war
effort.
For instance, our farmers are on
an all-out war basis. They are
producing more foodstuffs than they
ever have before. Now and then,
due to super-abundant harvests, ex-
ceptional weather, or wartime bot
tlenecks. unusually large supplies of
foods become suddenly available.
They must move to markets and to
the consumer promptly, or be
/ wasted
The Marketing Administration
has. therefore, set a special desig-
nation on such "windfalls," calling
them Victory Food Specials. The
little emblem that you see here is

Summer is all coiled up, ready to
spring on us with the full measure
of its torrid enthusiasm. My own
enthusiasm prospers more vibrantly
when summer is sleeping peacefully
under the SHOWS of winter.
However, persons differ as to
weather. Some like it hot and
some like it cold" but I do believe
that the average person has much
less energy when the temperature
is very high. We are wise if We
take this season in a leisurely stride,
This means siestas during the day,
comfortable clothing, lots of bath
ing, relaxation, simplicity and mod
Grafton in everything.
Moderation always is the keynote
of health, but in summer this advice
takes on additional value. Most OF
us eat too much all of the time.
In hot weather this is particularly
detrimental to health and comfort.
You do not require as much food
in summer and heavy, heat-produc-
ing foods make us uncomfortable.
Plan simple menus of fresh fruits,
vegetables and green salads, whole
wheat bread, eggs, milk and a mod
crate amount of lean meat. Drink
lots of water and fruit juices. Cut
down on the amount of food you
consume.
Forget your pastries, graves,
whipped cream, fried foods and
elaborate sauces. If you must go
on food sprees, save these for colo'
winter nights. San,
Don't overdo. Adopt a little OF
the philosophy Of the tropics. Say,
'Mano sobre mano," or hand upon
hand, to yourself several times a
day. This brings up the most re-
laXing picture. Who can be ener-
getic with his hands crossed IN MS
lap?
Don't hurry. Don't worry. Fret
ting and worry and hurry can neat

in hot climates they can be

Don't overdo. in sports. Many
men and women who have been
showed or rained in most OF the
winter months rush at the outdoor
season with suicidal enthusiasm
When the weather is hot, play less
tennis and golf than you do usually
and stop the long walk. Indulge
IN outdoor sports early in the morn

Wedding Buffet
More Informal
In War Time
Simple Refreshments
Are Wisest Choice;
Menu Suggested

June has always been a favorlte
wedding month. This year it seems
as if there were more than usual.
The bride -to-be, herself, usually
plans the details of the ceremony,
but it is the brides mother who
takes the responsibility Of planning
the refreshments for the guests at
the reception.
One of them writes me, Il am hav-
ing a small and informal wedding
for my daughter. We had thought
of a buffet luncheon, but wonder
Just what foods to have"
Most wedding receptions today,
whether large or small, are informal.
There may be table for the bridal
party. but the rest of the guests
usually help themselves from a
buffet. A chicken salad is often the
piece de resistance. Sometimes both
lobster and chicken salad are offered
There will be hot rolls, relishes and
coffee. There may be platters of
cold meat with appropriate sauces,
if you like. Sometimes hot potato
croouettes accompany this.
If you wish to offer a first course,
trays of hot clam broth or mixed
clam and chicken broth. garnished
with whipped cream and minced
parsley, may be passed. Cheese
straws go we'll with this. Instead
slices of honey dew melon garnished
with fresh raspberries and sprigs of
mint may be arranged on trays on
the buffet table, to which they will
add a note of color.
Punch should be on a side table
so that the route to the refreshment
table will not be blocked. Some
times pineapple or lemon ice is used
in the punch bowl instead of the
block of ice. Dessert at wedding
is invariably ice cream, which is
passed on individual plates as the
main course plates are removed.
There should be plates of small
cakes to supplement the wedding
cake which the bride will cut. Small
boxes of wedding cake for distribu-
ton to the guests are as popular as
ever, In some communities.

man parts his hair on the right,
it's probably with a definite pur-
pose, such as concealing a tendency
toward badness in the opposite
quarter.
Newspaper and magazine reading
habits are another interesting sub
iect for discussion. You may be
surprised to learn how many people
start leafing through a magazine
from the back, even if they've never
been to China. Eating also gives
rise to some odd practices. we've
known two different people in our
lives who ate all their meat, all
their potatoes, all their peas ano
all their everything else at once.
instead of taking a bite OF one ano
then a bite of another, as most OF
us do. They didn't enjoy meal
consumed in any other way.
At the risk of becoming personal
you might also call for report on
the routine by which people dress
and undress. You'll find that
Johnny always takes off his shoes
first. while Jimmy invariably starts
with his collar and tie, and neither
can tell you why. However, any
man who puts on his trousers be-
fore his shirt probably has sound
esthetic reason for this procedure
he saw himself in a mirror once
after putting his shirt on first.
Smoking is another field in which
personal habits seem to have nc
explanation. Note the various ways
in which people open package o1
cigarettes, the routine they always
follow in taking a cigarette out ano
lighting it, the way they hold it and
flick the ashes.
Once you've opened up this sub
iect of personal peculiarities you
never can tell where it will end
but you can be sure that your con-
versational problem is solved for the
moment. However, when you think
you've had enough of the subject
and want to switch to something
else. ask somebody which hand he
stirs his coffee with. When he re-
plies that he uses his right, point
out that this is his peculiarity-and
a very peculiar popularity at that
since almost everybody else uses a
spoon.
Which points up good rule for
concluding any conversation, as well
as any theatrical performance: AL
ways leave 'em laughing, and always
leave EN- wanting more!

Changes in Foods
And Containers
Will Be Made
BY Edith NJ. Barber

During the next few months there
will be many changes as far as the
shelves of the grocery store are con-
cerned. Many products which have
been packed in tin will go into
new type of can made from other
metal. Other products will go from
cans to glass containers or pack
ages.
Not only will the containers them
selves change but we will see an
increase of dehydrated vegetables
and soups. Much experimental work
has been carried on during the last
few years and you will be inter-
ested in the results which you get
after cooking dried products.
There is particularly good yege-
table soup with noodles which has
a chicken flavor. The dried vege-
tables come in an envelope by them
selves and are boiled for 20 minutes
before the noodles are added.
Although no attempt is made to
call this chicken soup, the favor
is reminiscent and goes particu-
larly we'll with noodles. I like to
serve it with toast or toasted cheese
sandwiches for lunch, and with a
fruit dessert you have satisfying
meal.
OF course, canned soups will still
be available, although more of them
will be in condensed form. There
will be the staple vegetables and
| fruits. None of the latter will be
in whole form. Canned sizes will
be limited to medium and large
Every housekeeper should take a
new interest in her marketing and
buy wisely, not only for the sake Of
her own pocketbook but also in
order to cooperate with the plans
of our Government for fair distri-
button of products so that every one
may be well fed.

than anything else IN the world.
1t rouses all of the combativeness of
high-strung youngsters and makes
them determined that they will
show Mother and Father that they
won't be dictated to, or let anybody
else pick out their husbands and
wives for them.
Worse still, it makes them the
champions of the boy and girl to
whom their parents object, and
causes them deliberately to shut
their eyes to defects that they
otherwise would perceive in those
with whom they contemplate spend
ing the balance of their lives.
What, then, is the best procedure
for parents to take in trying to save
their children from making the
fatal mistake of marrying the wrong
ones? An old method of dissipating
loves young dream that is almost
as infallible as grandma's recipe
for sponge cake is to give them an
overdose of the society of the party
of the other part, for propinquity is
just as effective as a matchbreaker
as 1t is in matchmaking.
So instead of trying to separate
John and Sally from the objects of
their ill-advised affections, the wise
parents have them always under
foot where John and Sally get a
closeup view of their little ways"
and an earful of their conversation.
Any romance that can survive
spending a week in the country, with
nobody to see or talk to but their
sweeties and nothing to do but to
bill and coo, is a deathless passion
with which no one has right to
interfere. Otherwise, they will be so
fed up with each other that they
will never want to meet again. This
remedy is particularly recommended
for hot summer weather.
Another true and tried way of
making a love-blinded youth or
maiden see how unsuitable a mate
not in his or her class would be is
the one that Thackeray recommends
in one of his stories where the old
major, after vainly trying to induce
his ward to give up an illiterate girl
with whom he thinks himself in
love, says, "Ah, see in her letters
she spells affection with one f'."
That turned the trick, for love can
stand abuse and contumely, but not
ridicule.
A mother I knew used to scare off
the undesirable suitors who hung
around her pretty daughter by being
as sweet as honey to them and. IN
burst of confidence, telling them
what a darling Maud was and how
she would hate to give her up, but
that she feared that she had spoiled
her because she didn't know the first
thing about anything domestic or
how to take care of money. And
what it cost to dress her they simply
wouldn't believe If she should tell
them! That made the prudent
move on.
These are mere suggestions for
handling the situation diplomati-
cally. Naturally. every case requires
different treatment. but all parents
should know the approaches to their
own children.

Dufresne Has Plan 10 Stop Jap Threats

Frank Dufresne, Executive Off cer of the Alaska Game Commis- sion, with the help of Dave Wood, former commission employe now living in New Mexico has worked out an airtight defense for Alaska against Japanese invasion.
 The plan is simple. AS Wood pointed out to Dufresne, simply set up a licensing station on Atta Island or at any other strategic outpost and enforce the law relat- ing to Alien Special Licenses. This requires a payment of fee of $100 for any alien who wishes to carry gun in the Territory. No Jap soldier will have the $100 and will be required by law to release his gun.
 Dufresne thinks the plan has possibilities.

"BIiiz" Camp Has
 More Guns than Men


 FORT KNOX, Ky. April T. Strange as it may seem, a U. S. armored division has 5000 more weapons than men! The ultra mechanized "blitz" machine has l2,- 900 men and 10000 guns, ranging from the .45 caliber pistol to the l05 millimeter howitzer.
 The seemingly unbalanced ratio of men and weapons is not due to an over production of pellet-spray- CTS. The varied activities of an armored division requires that some of the men fire as many as five different weapons from their ar mored vehicles.
