Toledo, O.-The war has pitch
forked women into many hitherto
"for men only" jobs, but veteran
glassmakers here never thought
they'd live to see the day when
the fair sex would be wielding-bloW-
pipes in their trade-one of the
most highly skilled, jealousy
guarded and war-important. But
they did live to see it. They see it
every day now, and likely will con-
tinues to see it after the war. For
although some of the girls who
have crashed the long-locked gate
of glass making are in it for only
as long as they are needed, others
are determined to stay.
From the time of the early
Venetian glass makers, who were
forbidden to leave their kingdom
so as to keep the secret of their
fragile, exquisite workmanship from
the outside world, to only a few
months ago, glass blowing has been
a family affair. Its tricky technique
was handed down from father to
son.
But with the draining of man
power from plants into armed
forces, women have now been
welcomed into the secret order of
blowing glass bubbles '-"bubbles"

for the Medical Corps; into airplane

sands of tumbler for the fighting
forces and glass containers for des-
perately needed home canning.
And they're learning the trade a
lot faster than the unions thought
it could be done. For instance, union

How to do it: Put the mayon-
naise in the cold frying pan or
when 1t is just starting to heat
fry over a MODERATE flame.
You can put your meat or vege-
tables directly into the warmed
mayonnaise. or if you prefer, you
may roll them in mayonnaise and
then in cracker or bread crumbs
and then place in pan with addi-
tional mayonnaise (the latter
method, Of course, gives more crust;
