Jay Walkington i School Reporter' "TTTF Smaller Eggs Good Buys No# Don't look down, your nose at small eggs. Changes are they'll be better buys during October than the large ones. Marketing specialist Emer I Broadbent, University of Illinois College of Agreulture, says that gmaller eggs f;om pullets are most plentiful at this season and are apt to be most reasonable in price. According to Broadbent, eggs that are sized "Small" will weigh at least 18 ounces per dozen, "Mediums" will weigh 21 ounces and "Large" will weigh at least 24 ounces. He says consumers are apt to be disappointed with the "large eggs they buy now, because at other reasons they are accustomed to having jumbc and extra large eggs thrown ,in with the large ones. Broadbent gives this rule of thumb to help you decide which size is the best food buy amQng eggs of the same graie; Small eggs, iie says, are wofth one-fourth less than large eggs. :tnd medium eggs one-eighth less than large oi&s. So if large eggs sell at 60 cents a dozen, small ones rhould cost 45 c^nts, and medium ones should cost 53 cents. If you wish to figure prices even further, you can compare the costs per pound of edible eggs by means of a simple chait prepared by Broadbent, which is available to you without charge.

Minnie Green recently presided at a board of directors meeting held in McHenry at tfce American Legion hall. Thes meeting lasted most of the day and was well attended by the district officers and chairmen. Also present were Christine Krinn, district secretary; Pat Peterson, Harvard, treasurer; and Alta Schmedling, Plain field, finance officer. At this meeting Minnie Green (Mrs. William Greeni, who wll be formally installed oh Oct. 10 at the McHenry high school during the eleventh district convention, held an open forum with her new officers and chairmen. Ways and means of successfully attaining the many objectives of the eleventh district were^discussed. Each chairman presented the problems peculiar to her own department and the group .tried to solve them. Most of the questions for which answe's were sought were concerned with raising and distributing funds to meet the many urgent needs and plans to help the veteran and his dependents. The ever present struggle to find a meeting ground for budget and disbursements was ^UlLK RECEIPTS McHenry county dairy farmers received $315,066.06 for milk delivered to Bowman Dairy company receiving stations during the month of August.

Among the numerous project* which the auxiliary carries out, one of the most important is the help given to the 263 children at Normal, 111. Most of :these children are orphans, wholly or partially, or victims , of broken homes. In these cases the American Legion and auxiliary take on the responsibilities rejected by the parents who are either unwilling or unable to face them. At Normal, the children are . given homes and education until they complete their high school education. Some of the aims of th« auxiliary are concerned with religion" and Americanism. * The problems Of civil defense and national security are always present. "Go to Church" was considered an important slogan. Our eleventh district auxiliary is encouraging driving institutes, With the hope of cutting down the awful death toll and disabling accidents of the open road. They will try to bring about improvement in road warning signs in the towns and on the highways. They will urge and work for beautification programs. They will cooperate with and assist civic or other organizational groups in their efforts to help needy children and to i educe delinquency. Helen Gordon, the eleventh district Civil Defense chairman, urges all units to plan an active program* designed toward learning to prevent panic and to meet disaster if it comes to us. She belie os we can all help to prevent it, A slogan was coined for Minnie -- "Green go sign." This go sign we hope will clear the way for all unit chairmen to recijilt every possible member for the auxiliary. The eleventh district now has nearly 5,000 members while the entire auxiliary membership is fast reaching the goal of one million. Helen linger of Plainfield, the eleventh district membership chaiiman, will make a determined effort to increase substantially the membership this year. Esther Blodgett of Harvard, the district radio chairman, has piomised Qs her usual full cooperation in publicizing our activities. Stephanie Waynne is a member of her committee. Mrs. Green believes many Americans lack a knowledge of correct flag etiquette and a step toward Americanism Wjuld be to correct this l .ck. The legislative chairman urges support of the Bricker amendment which will come up in Januacy. This amendment seeks repeal of the law which allows foreign treaties to supercede our Constitution. The rehabilitation chairman is making plans to put "service before self" and carry on with the many pro^rgfcns such as the help to Elgin state hospital which has 1153 veterans and eight servicewomen in the veterans' section. Our many parties and donation* to th6 vets at Downey hospital will continue as usual. The sale of veterans' craft artfcles returns many millions of dollars to the handicapped veterans each year. If one examines the program mapped out by our district and considers that all other disti icts are doing the same, one can begin to realise the enormous task the American Legion auxiliary faces. We know that Minnie Oram and her staff will cany this program to a successful conclusion. , * At the end of the morning* session Minnie was hostess to a very nice luncheon prepared by' our McHenry unit top officer*. Pearl Nerstad, president. Henrietta Vycital, secretary, and Eleanor Reid, treasurer, were re-> sponsible for the tasty lunch wel all enjoyed so much. fcead The Wut Ait! DR.
