MONTGOMERY SIDELIGHTS
BIZ ELSIE WHITE HAINEs.

Did you by any chance hear
julius P. Stadler, Price and Ra-
tioning Administrator for Mont
gomery County, as guest on the
0PA Mailbag program Saturday
evening? He paid nice compli-
ment to the volunteer workers who
have assisted SO untiringly with
the work of rationing and food
control, saying in part "This
work would never, and can not,
continue to be accomplished with
out the unselfish efforts of thou
sands of public spirited and pa
triotic citizens who are willing to
give a great deal of their time,
thought and energy to this pro-
gram. In addition to the regular
volunteer workers, many other
volunteers have assisted with
some of the big jobs. In issuing
new rationing books, thousands of
school teachers, housewives and
others have volunteered their SER
vices.
"Since the spring of 1913, when
the Community food price pro-
gram was started, the local War
Price and Rationing Boards have
played an increasingly important
part in the enforcement Of Price
Control.
'It is essential that you, the
public, should understand the ne
cessity for and benefits of Price
Control if it is to be effectively
maintained, for it can succeed
only if the people want it to sue
coed. Every time you buy from
black marketeers, who refuse to
sell to honest merchants at legal
prices, you are hurting your regu-
lar storekeeper, and pushing
prices up another notch.
Help your storekeeper give
the best service he can. Remem-
Der the war has made him over
worked and shorthanded. If you
find a mistake in his prices -
tell him about it. If a storekeeper
refuses to correct his mistake,
after you have pointed it out, re-
port the matter in writing, with
full details, to the Price Panel of
your local War Price and Ration
ing Board"
Mr.. Stadler went on to say, "Do
not hesitate to stop in at your
nearest Board TO offer your SER
vices, if you have an hour or more
to spare. There is task for

MAINE BURBERRY CAKE
CANNING PEARS

Unlike other fruits, pears
should be removed from the tree
before ripe and stored in cool
place (60-65 F.) until ripe, but
not soft. The Bartlett is con-
sidered superior to other pears
for canning, but the Keifer and
similar varieties are satisfac-
tory if properly ripened and
then cooked until almost tender
in plain water before sugar is
added to make syrup.
Wash, pare, halve, or quarter,
and core pears. (The cores are
not removed if the fruit is can
ned whole). Drop the pared
fruit into water containing salt
and vinegar, e tablespoons of
each to a gallon of water).
Rinse. Boil gently from A to 8
minutes in syrup made of equal
parts, sugar and water. Pack
into hot jars; layers overlap
ping, cavity side down. Cover
with syrup in which cooked.
Process 20 to rs minutes in hot
water bath; then complete seal.
Use the longer period for large
or hard fruit.

Mrs. Packs Work
Is Commended

This week completed the two and
half months that Mrs. Walter
Pack has been Assistant Home
Demonstration Agent. During this
time Mrs. Pack has made friends
with homemakers all over the
county as she helped Miss Edythe
Turner with the food preservation
lessons or held rug making schools,
helped with slip cover schools, sew
ing machine clinics, and other
meetings.
She has reorganized some Of the
dormant All clubs, organized new
All clubs, found local leaders and
reorganized records on All work
The All girls have responded to
her enthusiasm and view her leav-
ing with deep regret.
Mrs. Pack can turn over to her
successor, Miss Jane Bastow, fiji
teen fine groups of girls who arc
ready to go forward in their pro-
ject work.
1t has meant great deal to
the Home Demonstration Agent to
find among her homemaker groups
person so eager and willing to
take on the girls All work. II
was not an easy task for new
person, for there can be no set
rule in developing All club work.
As Mrs. Pack Travelled around with
the agent the first month she felt
it was a bewildering problem, for
the variety in projects the girls
carried meant the need to become
familiar with much subject matter
on the level that met girls needs
Now that she feels familiar with
the broad field, she has had the
great delight in reaching out into
new neighborhoods for the new
clubs.
The Rockville All girls feel SC
fortunate that she is to continue
as their leader and say they arc
ready to challenge other clubs al
/ to the amount Of work accomplish
ed by next year.
Mrs. Pack is glad to be free fol
her normal life as a homemaker
but she says that the time she hai
spent has been a joy and pleas
ure. Mrs. Pack is TO be congrat
ulated on the fine service she ha
given the county.
