In nearly all furloush planning
there Is the need Of spreading

This reminds me that all people
of great popularity invariably
greet people with delight and bid
them good-by with evident re-

Kindergarten Meets In Church Basement

An agreement between the city and the Community Baptist church was approved this week by the city, providing for use of the basement room of the church to house the localschool kinder garten. The church has agreed to furnish heat, light, water and ianitor for $100 per month. The city and school board are still endeavoring to get a separate building for the class and the church agreement can be termi- mated on 30 days notice.

Suggested Ways To Prevent Food
Separation In Cans

By realizing the causes of home
canned fruit separating from the
liquid and rising to the top of the
jar, the housewife can take pre-
cautions SO her next canning pro-
duct will have more uniformity,
says Miss Margaret McPheeters,
Extension nutritionist of the Uni
versity of Maryland.
Among the causes mentioned are.
Overripe or crushed fruit may have
been used; the fruit perhaps was
packed in jars raw or not preheated
enough to drive out the air; too
heavy strip could have been used
and drawing the juice from the
fruit, made it lighter than the sirup;
or too loose a pack was made, she
suggests.
The separation of canned toma-
toes, or the red pulp rising to the
top of the jar and leaving the light
colored juice in the bottom Miss
McPheeters explains, may be due
to using overripe tomatoes that dc
not hold their shape, preheating too
long before putting in jars, or pro-
cessing TOO long Tomatoes packed
raw in the jars are more likely to
separate than those that are packed
hot, she adds.

Water blisters usually occur
where there has been rubbing, as
of shoe or handling of work
tool. Blood blisters are caused by
pinching. 1t is best to protect bis
tiers from breaking open if possible.
To avoid infection in case blister
may break, gently cleanse the bis
ter and area around it with soap
and water. When dry, paint with
mild tincture of iodine. Cover with
sterile dressing.
Babies should never be urged to
bear their weight on their feet UNI
til they do it of their own accord.
When the muscles are sufficiently
developed, the normal baby will
try to stand and walk without urg-
ing.
Soap and water, strong sunlight
and fresh air are effective disease
germ killers.
