'b ^ n | A BIT EATTLED, AT THAT /f-j There had been a little fire In a Ismail hotel, and everyone had come ^running out in bathrobes and what- not. One guest joined the group fwatching the blaze and kidded them (©h their excitement. ' "Why, there was nothing to be excited about," he remarked. "I took : ,my time dressing, lit a cigarette, ididn't like the knot in my necktie, !po ti<*d it over again--that's how cool '2 was." ' • "Swtll," commented a bystander, "but why didn't you put your .

Mrs. Ray McGee, vice chairman of the McHenry branch, presided. An urgent appeal was made known, through the officers, for a renewed effort on the part of the loeal Re«d Cross workers to come to the fore. Through no fault of the chairmen either from here or the county, material for surgical dressings for the March quota was delved in getting to us, therby necessitating a period of inactivity. This i shortage was evidently due to a j ^shortage of help somewhere along the I line. Mrs. Reihansperger has had i a letter from Mrs. Lowe, county ! chairman, stating that never in Twice Told Tales 8IXTY YEARS AGO ground and with a nice spring rain heard from our pulpit, we are sure, the soil should soon be ready for the plow.

Storing Pressure Cooker When storing a pressure cooker* make certain it is clean and thoroughly dry. Place the lid in a paper bag and turn it right side up on a shelf. Wadded newspaper placed in the kettle will absorb excess moisture and prevent corrosion. * Potato Storage Potatoes should be carefulfy ttspected before they are stored, and all of those not in prime condition -removed. Badly bruised or cracked ones should be segregated and used jflrst, since they will not keep for any Iperiod of time. Store potatoes away from the light if possible, since light causes them to lose flavor. When storing only, a small amount, a cloth covering or heavy paper is • sufficient protection. , Grown Outside Tropies Oranges and their cousins c«T%t grown after a fashion almost everywhere in the Tropics; but the most Important commercial production is Concentrated just outside the Tropics in i&th the northern and southern temperate zones.

Food Waste One of the first steps in preventing waste of cooked food is proper storage. "Cold and covered" is the rule for keeping most leftovers attractive and palatable.'" Refrigera-» tor space can be saved by storing foods that are good companions in the same containers. For instance, potatoes, peas and carrots can all go into the same covered jar or dish, for more than likely they will lie used together. Two jars for liquids is another good idea--one for fruit juices and the other for the cooking liquid from vegetables. Fruit juices can go into a chilled fruit drink, a gelatin salad or dessert, or a sauce for cake or. pudding. Vegetable liquors can give flavor, vitamins and minerals to soups, cream sauce, gravy or vegetable juice beverages. . WAR BONDS--buy them and "Let's Win This War."
