Good food is essential to good health and good health is essential to victory. The war has focused at tention on health and food and as & result the lunches that Ego to work" are in the hmelight.
 Jessie Alice Cline, home econo- mist, says that there are four types of food in the adequate carried lunch. First of all there are cold drinks, hot drinks or soup. A thermoS bottle is best to carry these in. The mainstay of the lunch, of course, is sandwiches. Satisfying filings are demanded here. For a crisp texture, raw vegetables, relishes, pickles, nuts and saladS may be included. Lastly there are desserts; fruits, cakes, cookies, and even buildings.
 Perhaps the hardest part of pack ing a lunch every ady is making sandwiches to tempt the appetite and at the same time have variety. Men and women doing strenuous work at not satisfied with delicate foods. Meat is probably the favor ite sandwich filling and meat ra- tioning has made it necessary to plan carefully so that it may be in- cluded.
 By alternating slices of roast or ready eat meat with extended meat spreads for sandwiches meat point ESQ further. This meat ex- tender recipe might be made with cooked leftover pork, lamb or veal as well as with liver.

New Textile Plan Gives Priority To Essentials

be set in motion by the new or der. Numbers indicated thread count, tensile strength, and amount of sizing, which ranges from 10 per cent in type 112 to 4 per cent in type 180. How much these new cloths are going to cost is delicate and uncertain question, but the hope is that no increases in price will have to be made.
 Meanwhile, an unhappy reflec- tion on the outcome of the new tex tile programs is found in the fact that the children's clothes program which was supposed to bring new cloths to you by February or March will be delayed a month or so.
 FREEZING POINTS
 Hope for further point cuts in frozen vegetables is seen in the War Food Administrators an- nouncement that there will be an additional 28 million pounds available for civilians this year. They mentioned among the plen- tiful varieties the three remaining on rationing - corn, lima beans and peas. So there might be a point cut in these vegetables which still have their original g and 12 points values. Such pop ular vegetables are not likely to be taken completely of ration ing.
 ODDS AND ENDS
 A turnabout of shortages is found in the fact that paint, var nish and lacquer makers now can procure 5-gallon steel pails for civilian use on permit. because wooden and fibre containers are so short Packing trunks have been added to the types of lug gage permitted to be nanufac- tured for civilian use, but less leather binding is allowed.

 (Fifth of a series of six articles selecting the outstanding hands published in this column during 1943.)
 During the first week in August I asked some e-well-known bridge writers of the country to write my column, and this is the hand writ ten by A. Moyse, Jr. You and your friends can have some fun with this hand. Even after looking at it for severtal minutes, doubt whether many of them will make the right play.
 As MT. Moyse said in the article when it first appeared, it looked as if the declarer must lose two diamonds and two clubs-but this is the way he avoided it. He ruffed the opening lead with the nine o1 spades, led the six-spot toward dunn my and finessed the seven-spot! Tc his great satisfaction the seven helc the trick. He then led the jack of hearts and discarded diamond. West wor and shifted to diamond, whicE South won with the ace.

THINGS YOUR LOUDSPEAKER
 WON'T TELL YOU

Ever wonder how musical num- berS are chosen for broadcastS? Well, here's how 1t is done on the Joe Gotten, "America-Ceiling Un- limited" show. Every Sunday after the program, Producer Thomas Freebar1n Smith, Soloist Constance Moore and Maestro Wilbur Hatch meet in a CBS rehearsal studio for 8 Sway liam session." They pound the piano, hum tunes and indulge in a bit of impromptu close harmony. After each of the trio has exhausted his repertoire of songs. the wedding out process begins, and when the list Is scaled down to half dozen or so numbers vote is taken. The next weeks musical program is then made up of the winning tunes.
 In MT. District Attorneys" re- cent baffler, "The Case of the Con- certo of Death,' the script called for pianist to play as in concert hall, and later to sit at piano in his home, playing notes at random. For the concert hall selections, Maestro Peter Van Steeden had his pianist, Dick Costello, play a por- tion of Rachmaninoffs famous Pre- Jude in c Sharp Minor and for the other effect, Costello inproyised 8 melody.
 A few days later, the audience mail brought dozen requests from listeners for the title of the second selection the one that Costello had made up as he went along!
 The "Sportsmen Quartet" are fol- lowing the Wagnerian tradition. Wagner, you will remember, always managed to bring an animal or two into his operas Sometimes 1t was a snake, as in Rheingold; goats in Die Walkure; horse in Gotterdam- merung, etc.
 The singing aces of radio, emu- lating this tradition, recently intro duced in 8 single week the follow ing numbers: 'Green-Eyed Dragon" 'Listen to the Mocking Bird" Hitch Old Dobbin to the Shay" Three Little Figs" Big Bad Wolf" and ''The Glow Worm"
 The boys are planning to corn- pile an album titled Animal Crackers"

 This is crucial year for Will liam Bendix, star of the new Life of Riley" series on the Blue net worok Sunday afternonos. It's the year when he has to live up to the description as "the actor most likely to succeed in 1914" according to the Motion Picture Exhibitors of Amer lea. If his work in China" and "Guadalcanal Diary" indicate his strides before the camera, then the exhibitors need have no fear of their prediction going awry. His new radS programs will also give him a lift in clinching the title.

 The other day, Isabel passed a fish market and purchased a mackerel with His panic background. To 1t, she affixed a small wig and a rose, which she attached to its gill.
