Are you nine days and ten
pounds away from a lovely figure?
Are you nine days away from that
young slim feeling? Nine days
away from that roll over the gir-
die? Nine days away from best
vitality?
II you are ten pounds over
weight. you are Just that! Nine
days pass so rapidly. and anyone
can stick to q diet for that long
we'll. almost anybody!
Even when you have a great
deal of weight to lose, my nine
day diet will help because 1t is q
good idea to divide long reduc-
ing period into parts. Psychol-
ogists tell us that this is helpful
when taking a long hard course
or doing a big piece Of work.

Today am going to give you
another exercise to 90 along with
the nine day reducing diet. Lie
on your back with your legs
straight and your arms resting on
the floor overhead. Keep your
head, arms and shoulders on the
floor. and your legs stiff. while
you roll from side to side. as far

PUDDINGS.
From Mrs. n. p. VIENNA

From Mrs. II. p. VIENNA
On Sunday, March 81. Mrs. A.
j., Washington. wrote in wanting
a recipe for a baked rice pudding.
I have this one and use 1t quite
frequently. My husband and three
children just love it. 1t is called
custard rice pudding. One cup
cooked rice. 2 cups rich milk, =
cup sugar. "a teaspoon salt. 3 eggs,
/ teaspoon vanilla. "a cup seedless
raisins. dash of nutmeg. Have
rice cooked so that 1t Is dry and
fluffy. Place milk. sugar. salt,
eggs and vanilla in bowl and beat
until well mixed. Butter a baking
dish. add rice and raisins. Pour
ingredients and stir a little. Sprin-
kle nutmeg over the top. Place
pudding dish In q pan Of warm
water and bake for IS minutes to
! hour In q moderate oven. $50 de-
grees.
I also use this as q corn pud-
ding. emitting the rice and raisins
and add corn instead. and my
family likes this very much. too.
I hope Mrs. A. j. likes this as
much as we do.
HOMEMADE SOAP.
fFrom Mrs. c. d. B.. ArlinotonJ
To all interested in making
soap. some time ago this recipe
was in the RCH and tried it and
found 1t better than several which
I had used previously. It is the
only one which makes suds.
Take any old fat, boil for 10
minutes in double the amount OF
water. adding 1a teaspoonful bak-
ing suds to each 2 cups of fat.
This takes out salt and any ran
cid odor. Then strain through
several thicknesses Of cheese
cloth. Let cool and harden over
night. then remove the fat from
top of water. Melt until just
lukewarm. Dissolve one can lye,
l3 ounces. In 3 pints cold water.
using an enamel pan. and stirring
with o wooden spoon. Have pan
plenty large so I've won't spatter.
The lye will heat the water. When
water is cooled to lukewarm add
" cup household ammonia. "a
cup borax and 2 tablespoonfuls
sugar, stirring. Add the cooled
fat. 5i2 pounds. and stir until the
consistency Of strained apricot.
which will take about 10 minutes.
Pour into trays, let harden over
might. then cut into cakes. Take
from trays and stand on end to
harden. One tablespoonful blue
vegetable color gives it a grayish
color.
like the RCH very much and
have found many good recipes
there.

1t has me.

NGTON, up - The
worlds largest oil claim, on the
northern shores of Alaska, has
produced a honey-colored oil that
smells like gasoline and will pour
at 70 degrees fahrenheit below
zero.
The oil came from a test bore in
the navy's 35,000-square-mile pc
troleum reserve No. 4 in the Point
Barrow area, the bureau of reCla-
nation says in its first report on
Alaskan resources.
Pointing out that no oil in COM
mercial quantities has yet been
found in the reserve, it said
I'm the event that pools of suffi-
cient size to warrant development
are found, engineers have already
roughed out pipelines, highways
and possible railways linking the
fields with Interior Alaska, and
eventually the ice-free coast of
the Gulf of Alaska"
The report added that oil Shales
asSaying from so to 100 gallons
and more a ton have been found
near the mouth of Alaska's Noa-

It said Alaska'S coal reserves Of
more than 1O,OOO,OOO,OOO tons may
be found to justify construction
of at least one synthetic oil and

Bureau Report
Would Conserve
Salmon Waste
by Vern Haugland)

Gap Special Washington Service)
WASHINGTON, ZAP. - Salmon
heads are tasty and ought to be
canned instead of thrown away, a
bureau of reclamation report on
Alaska stated
Most of the canned heads would
have to be exported to foreign
countries, however, the report
conceded. Immense quantities are
discarded in Alaska each year.
"Squeamishness is felt in most
section Of the United States re-
garding the use of fish heads" the
report explained.
The report, perhaps the most
comprehensive study of Alaskan
resources yet published, suggested
that Alaska's fishing industry
might also develop markets for
caviar, octopus tenacles-"they
are exceptionally tasty"-seaweed
and canned fish balls Of salmon,
founder and black cod. .... .
''NeW methods, new products,
new fisheries and new areas hold
promise of boosting the value of
Alaska's fisheries far beyond its
present S115,O00,0O0 annual mark,
creating additional employment as
well as more permanent employ
ment for thousands of Alaskans,"
the report said.
at is true there is little likeli-
hood the canned salmon pack, the
fisheries largest industry, will in
crease.
However, the majority of for
mulas now used by the industry
in canning salmon are not only
archaic but also unreasonably
wasteful.

The Senate-passed me a sure
calling for slum clearance, low

Mr.. Truman asked Congress not TO

However, Rep. Martin R.-
