with beeswax, tallow, wool grease
or petroleum jelly. Well-oiled shoes
not only turn off moisture but also
last longer. Outdoor work shoes or
children's shoes which have hard
ened after getting wet may be soft
ened by rubbing with warm-not
hot-neat's foot oil, castor oil or tai
low. To make leather soles mois-
ture-resistant, set shoes in a pan of
just enough warm oil to cover the
soles and let stand about Is minutes.
Caution: Never let oil get on rub
Der heels or soles because it rots
rubber.
Helpful as these treatments are
for wet shoes, prevention in the form
of rubbers, or overshoes is easier
and better, the specialists say as a
final reminder. Almost any hand
bag has room enough for pair of
toe rubbers for unexpected showers.
In seasons of snow and slush, how
ever, galoshes or boots are needed
to save shoes.

Corner
By MARY DOUGLAS

Yesterday one of my readers call
ed me for recipe for making can
died grapefruit and orange peel, so
it occurred to me that maybe you too
would be interested in these recipes,
as this is the time when we are us
ing a lot of citrus fruit, which by
the way is a very necessary item of
food in your daily menu, providing
the abundance of vitamin c that is
sometimes lacking in the winter be-
cause of our inability to get many
fresh vegetables. But back again
to the -
Candied Grapefruit or Orange Peel
(Recipe No. u
Cut into strips one grape fruit or
two orange peels. Cover with cold
water and bring slowly to the boil
ing point. Remove from the fire
and drain well. Repeat this process
5 times each time draining well af-
ter the boiling period.
Make a strip of "a cup of water
and p cup of sugar Add the peel
and boil slowly until all the sirup
has been absorbed by the peel,
watching carefully all the time.
Cool the peel and roll in sugar.
Spread out to dry. This makes a
moist peel. For more sugared
quality of peel use the recipe below.
Candied Grapefruit or Orange Peel
(Recipe No. q
Cut into strips grapefruit or
orange peel and soak for "a hours
in salt water made with a table
spoon of salt to 4 cups of water.
Drain the peel, rinse it in fresh
water. Drain it and cover with
fresh water and soak for 20 minutes.
Drain it and cover with fresh water
and boil for 20 minutes and drain it
again. Measure sugar as much as
you have peel. Cook slowly (add-
ing a little water if necessary until
the peel has absorbed all the sugar.
Shake the pot as the strip diminishes
so that the peel will not burn. This
method does not call for rolling the
candied peel in sugar, but only to
spread and dry.
Candied Orange Peel
Cover the peel f-3 oranges with
water. Add a teaspoonful of salt.
Simmer 80 minutes. Drain thor
oughly. Cover with cold water. Heat
to the boiling point, then drain. Re-
peat this process 3 times. Cut the
peel in strips with scissors. Add III
cups of light corn sirup. Cook slow
ly until the peel is translucent.
Drain and roll in sugar Dry on a
wire rack.
Since we got off on this subject,
maybe you would like to make
some citrus marmalade, so here is a
recipe l believe you will like to keep
whether you use it now or later.

With shoes the price they are, it
seems about time we learned how
to take better care of them, especial
ly since this is the hard season of the
year on shoes. So here is an article
which should prove helpful along
this line.
Take off wet shoes as soon as pos
sible, clothing specialists of the I'm
iversity of Maryland advise. Once
soaked, they may never look as well
or fit as comfortably unless they are
properly dried and cared for after
ward. Leather is weak when wet.
Wearing wet shoes may pull them
out of shape and cause breaks or
other damage. Stuff shoes with
soft paper or absorbent cloth to take
up moisture. Never use tension
shoe trees because they may stretch
the leather out of shape. Instead of
drying the outside of shoes by rub
bing, which may roughen the wet
leather, pat with a soft cloth.
When the inside moisture is abb
sorbed, remove the stuffing and let
shoes dry slowly away from heat.
Fast drying with heat makes leather
shrink, harden or crack.
As shoes dry, clean with saddle
soap. Then with the hands rub in
little sulfonated castor oil, which
can be had at drug stores. 1t keeps
leather soft and pliable. use only as
much oil as the leather will absorb;
otherwise, the shoes will be too
greasy to take a polish. When shoes
are soft and dry, polish with any
good paste. or cream. Two coats of
polish may be needed to bring back
the fresh new look to the leather.
Work or play shoes that do not
need polishing may be softened and
made to resist moisture by rubbing
