Well, I would like to ask, why after all this fuss about merican magazines counug into Canada that the powers that be are laying down on the job? Some one is apparently asleep at the switch. Now the price of American magazines has peen raised to Canadian readers, and just as many magazines are com- ing into Canada, and I got the in- formation from some source I can- not at present recall, that the number of magazines coming in had increased 27 per cent. I un- derstand this duty was imposed to protect the Canadian publisher ana increase the circulation of Cana- dian magazines. Now as I get the picture, the chief booster of Cana- dian magazines should be the pub- lishers themselves, I would tnink the best advertising they could get would be to place their magazines in ever library in Canada. I might say that I thnk it should be the duty of every library board or librarian to see that all Canadian Magazines are on their subscrip- tion list (we haven't so many Cana- dian magazines). I visited the | library the other night with the in- tention of securing a book. Not finding one to my liking I looked around for a 'Rod and Gun." Pos- sibly I did not look in the right place or perhaps some one else had borrowed it. But I did not find one. I looked then for the Canadian Forests and Outdoors. I failed to see it. Well, I thought I would glance at MacLean's; it was too conspicuous by its ab- sence. Some one was reading "Popular Mechanics," so I came out, Now it struck me as peculiar that all this ballyhoo was raised about the American magazines and this tax placed on the people to make them quit reading the Amer- ican magazines, and yet the Can- adian publishers fail to demon- strate their wares. The library would be a good place to "Sell", the Canadian magazines. Another idea would be to put on a Canadi- an Magazine Week, with the co- operation of the newsdealers and newspapers, but just to make us pay more for the American maga- zine is a piece of nonsense -and "Sells'"' less instead of more Cana- dian magazines, 0.

Aluminum is popular and practical and needs no special preparation to fit it for use in the kitchen, Many housewives obejct to the metal, but a careful choice of scouring powder makes it easy to remove stains. Cer- tain brands of aluminum do not blac- ken as readily as others. Keep in mind that alkali is the darkening agent for aluminum and care for it accordingly, Enamel ware requires gentle handl- ing since hard knocks make it chip. Neither will 'the average enamelware stand 'intense heat without checking, which leads eventually to chipping. It has little tendency to discolor and stains are easily removed with any scouring powder. Wood must be used for scraping or stirring in ena- melware since metal scratches the glaze of the enamel and makes dark streaks, Hot soapsuds, thoroughly scalding and drying keep this mater- ial at its best, If food sticks and burns let the pan cool before putting water in it. Then soak and scrape off burned particles with wood. .f the burning was bad and some of the spots obstinate melt a small amount of fat slowly in the pan and scrape again. Glass is popular for ovenware and requires no special preparation if it's one of the brands specially construct- ed to withstand the strain of expan- sion and contraction. The glass mea- suring cups, mixing bowls and mis- cellaneous dishes used chen will wear better if they are im- mersed in a panful of cold water and brought slowly to the boiling point and boiled for five or ten minutes. Let cool in the water. Wash in hot soapsuds, scald and dry well if you would keep your glass clear and shining. If food sticks it will usu- ally soak off. Discoloration will dis- appear with an application of steel wool. Iron utensils are often covered with a thin coating of some sort of shellac when shipped from. the fac- tory. This must be removed and the iron seasoned before using. Let the utensil stand for several hours in water in which washing soda has been dissolved. Wash in warm soap- suds and dry. Rub with unsalted fat and let stand in a warm oven for two or three hours and then heat tp the smoking point. Let cool and wash in hot soapsuds, scald and dry. Rub well with fat and heat slowly and thoroughly in the oven. Wipe off the surplus fat with a soft crump- led paper and the utensil is ready to use. All cooking utensils should be washed thoroughly in clean hot suds, thoroughly rinsed in scalding hot water and thoroughly dried with a dry clean towel. Dampness encour- ages the growth of bacteria and produces an unpleasant odor of must- mess. SOCIAL BATILE 5 STILL RAGING IN WASHINGTON Sister of Vice-President Is Ranked on Equality with Mrs. Hoover (By Canadian Press Leased Wire) Washington, April 15.--Mrs. Edward Everett Gann, sister and official hostess for Vice-President Curtis, around whom has ewWblved the "social battle of the century," rank with Mrs. Herbert Hoover at meetings of the Senate Ladies' Luncheon Club. This was pointed out yesterday by reason of the fact that both Mrs. Hoover and Mrs. Gann are "honorary members" of the club, which was organized during the Wilson administration by Mrs, Thomas Riley Marshall, wife of the late vice-president. Despite Mrs, Gann's success in her fight for recognition, interest in her status has not subsided and there has been much speculation as to her rank in the Senate Ladies' Club, of which Mrs. George H. Moses, wife of Senator Moses, President-protem of the senate, is president, Mrs. Gann has felt that as of- ficial hostess for the vice-president she should have been elected president of the club in line with past precedents of electing the wife of the vice-president. How- ever, the members ruled 'that Mrs. Gann has no active status in the club and should therefore be ac- corded honorary membership. A gem-studded 'crown worth $165,- 000 was shown at the Antique Show in New York the other day. Just the kind of an after-Easter bargain the missus has been looking for.

It should be rubbed over with a piece of soft paper after any greasy cooking is done and any spot of grease removed.
