The defenses of today are not rat

give us the information we need for
our defenses to function. Radar can
not see around the curvature of the

Even at its best, radar cannot
usually tell how many planes it is
tracking, or what type they are;
it cannot ever tell what markings
the plane has.
Because of these deficiencies, orr

germs that the whole family will

Picnics are wonderful, but guard
your family's health with a few
rules such as these.
Never more than half an hour be-
tween refrigerator and table.
If the trip is longer than this
time, arrange for some refrigera-
ton en- route or else carry the food
in unopened cans.
Cook-outs are perhaps best of ALL
Meat that is broiled over an open
fire not only tastes wonderful but
is much safer than in cold sand
wiches.
Children need milk whether at
home or on a picnic. Fresh milk is
difficult to carry and hard to keep
cool. Try using canned milk Take
the unopened cans, dilute with va
ter at mealtime. Carry your own
water if you're not sure of the sup
ply at the picnic spot. If the chill
dren do not care for the taste of
evaporated milk, all a little flavor
ing. The addition of a little choco-
late syrup, or mashed banana, or
a can of baby pureed prunes or
apricots to the evaporated milk
make delightful drinks that add a
special party flavor to the picnic
If your small fry are scornful of
canned milk don't let them see you
open the can. The strong flavor
you add to the milk completely
masks the canned taste of the milk
and they'll drink the finished pro-
duet with gusto if they don't know
it's canned milk.

If you're wise, smart and modern
you'll plan meals that contain all
these things healthy little bodies
need and still not spend much time
over the hot stove. Use frozen foods,
ready mixes and pre-cooked foods.
From the nutritional point of
view, it makes little difference
whether the food is hot or cold
Cold soup, jellied chicken, tuna
fish salad, all carry the same body
building elements as the same foods
served hot.
But don't call a moratorium on
hot food in hot weather. Children,
and the rest of the family, too, get
tired of a diet of salads. Select
your hot foods for their quick
cooking qualities; meats that can
be broiled or fried rather than
baked, soups in cans rather than
home made.
Many summertime meals are pic
mics and food out of doors. If you
have a backyard grill you probably
have learned lots of tricks for easy
good hot meals, and meals where
Dad and the kids do the cooking
and call it fun.
Summertime picnics have their
hazards, too. In hot weather food
spoils easily. Germs grow quickly
in unrefrigerated food. If food is
thoroughly cooked just before 1T is
eaten germs will be killed and the
food do you no harm. But if a food
like potato salad, or ground meat
for sandwiches is prepared in the
morning, then carried several hours
in a hot car it may contain so many
