The recommendation was one of four, the American Public Welfare association reports, made by the committee after hearings in New York city and six other citiel in the state. During the hearings the committee sought the advice of representatives of schools, churches, social agencies, health services, labor, industry and other groups. If mothers were employed only on a part-time basis, the committee said, it would lessen the tensions and interruptions of home life, lighten the burden of mothers attempting to hold down both the job at Strong-Flavored Fats - Strong-flavored fats may be used without being noticeable in baked products of pronounced flavor, such as spice cake, chocolate cake, or • • ..-v Fall Sowiajf V Hie ground must be prepared ] carefully for fall sowing.

These are leaf lettuce and spinach, waiting until the last minute when the ground can be worked and then covering the rows with a mulch until frost is out of the ground in the spring. -While leaf lettuce usually is held over until spring and comes quickly enough sown then, old-time gardeners used to sow it in the fall and reap early lettuce from these early seedings.

He knew that Peter Rabbit and Happy Jack and Chatterer and Sammy Jay and Blacky the Crow had come to see him make good his boast that he would eat from the hand of Farmer Brown's Boy, and that not one of them really believed that he would do it. He was tickled all over find cut up all sorts of capers just for pure joy. Finally he flew over to the maple tree that grows close by Farmer Brown's house. "Dee, dee, dee, chickadee! See me! See me!" calfed Tommy Tit, and his voice sounded cheerier than ever and merrier than ever. Then the door of Farmer Brown's house opened and out stepped Farmer Brown's Boy and looked up at Tommy Tit, and the look in his eyes was gentle and good to see. He pursed up his lips and from them came the softest, sweetest whistle, and it sounded like "Phoe-be." Peter Rabbit pinched himself to be sure that he was awake, for it was Tommy Tit's own love note, and if Peter had not been looking straight at Farmer Biown's Boy he would have been sure that it was Tommy himself who had whistled.
