But tie mustn't a/low those things to discourage us, to disrupt our lives. Kathleen ISorris points out that the cure is to lift your spirit into a higher, less personal, less selfish zone. Instead \of wanting safety, security and happiness for just the few persons you love, you must want them for the entire tcorld. l\o matter what the personal cost, we , must strive for the greater goal of peace, security ahd happiness for all. We hart to take whatever circumstances this uar imposes upon us. You cm fort your daughter, as she 'will you, and let the baby be a comfort to both. By KATHLEEN NORMS •V i ^HE most terrible thing I about a war is being so fearful all the time," writes Mildred Wilson, from St. Paul. "I have never been afraid in ray life before, but now I am. I'n^ constantly anxious about my' son and my son-in-law, both away on naval duty. I'm sick with sympathy and apprehension over my daughter, 23 years old, expecting her f^rst baby, and breaking her heart oVer her husband's absence. I'm worried about my husband, for hi£ is the furniture business, and people in our neighborhood are conserving what they have, not buying anything new! I have all the u^ual worries about rationing and the home table; my husband, like so many other men, Jikes chops and steaks and roasts, repeated endlessly, and we can't get them any more. A steak and fried potatoes with coffee have composed his favorite meal for years; vegetables and sweets don't register at all. "I want to do all I can for the Klrir effort, but, with Phyllis' baby coming, and my man home for three meals a day, I can't spare the time to become a nurses' aid or give eight hours every third day to interceptor command. And so I worry, and I don't sleep, and that makes me a nervous, half-efficient sort of woman who shivers at the radio news, distrusts everyone who is conducting this war, despairs of the world's future, to say nothing of America's, and altogether is becoming a burden on hexseM and everyone else. I wouldn't write you," the letter ends, "if I didn't feel that thou: sands of other vomen, some of whom I know, are sinking into the same morass. Have you any suggestions as to the way out?" The way out, my dear- Mildred, is like a dose of oastor oil. It takes a certain amount of courage to pour the nauseous stuff into the spoon, to open the mouth, and gulp the oily disgustingness down. But when your ipind and soul are clogged and poisoned you have to take the equivalent of this dose if you arfe to recover. Become World Minded Ycu know-the cure, of course. It is to lift your spirit into a higher, less personal, less selfish zone. Instead of wanting safety, security, wealth, happiness for just the few persons you love, you must learn to want them, and to work for them, lor all the men and women of the World.

The year 1929 offers one good basis of comparison, because that year rei*- resented the peak traffic year prior, to the current war period. The year 1918 is another good yeer for comparison with 1942 because it was a year of wartime operations, involving heavy troop and war commodity movements. Both 1929 and 1918 faO" considerably short of 1942 in respect of both freight and passenger traffic volume. However, the pressure of capacity operations was somewhat similar in all three years. Comparing 1942 with 1929, tonmiles in.,.eased 42 per cent; passenger- miles increased 72 per tent; fatalities decreased 20 per cent nonfatal injuries decreased 38 per cent. The 1942 accident record is even more striking when compared with 1918. Ton-miles increased 57 per cent; passenger-miles increased a per cent; fatalities decreased 42 p«r truly God's peace.

If meals in your house and mine come down to bowls of oatmeal and baked apples, then let us remember that "whole nations • have thrived and grown strong on just such simple fare. War Alters Everybody Every family you know will be affected by this world catastrophe. Every life that touches yours will be changed. With all the hope and glofy of the months ahead sorrow and loss yvill strike too. Face it. See yourself as a grain dt sand on the great beach of the world; play your tiny part so gallantly that you will never hurt others with your own grief. And pray always. For we are going to want God's light on the peace to come. We are never going to feed the world, as the visionaries say, because that is impossible. But perhaps we may humbly help the war-torn world to reach that point where it can feed itself. Perhaps with seed and machinery and. counsel and lowered tariflfe and altered immigration laws we can show the world that we really mean our offers of goodwill. Russia. China. Poland, middle-Europe, these countries, are quite capable of feeding themselves, after a few years of reconstruction, and after a hundred years»of 'peace there need not be hunger or destitution anywhere. But we must have that century of peace! And it is only by strong and generous and wholly impersonal thinking that we can even dream of it. It will not mean our enforcing our ideas, even of various freedoms, anywher-e. It will mean that every nation is free to form its own constitution and adopt its own style " of government, and that while mighty awakening China keeps an eye on the Orient, and magnificent Russia and England and the Nordic countries watch Europe, our men wy return to an America so educated JOHNSBUHO (By Mrs Arthur Klein) A festive celebration took place at St. John's Baptist church last Sunday.

The High Mass was followed by a procession around the Via Dolorosa. Amidst song and fervent prayer the procession halted at St. Anthony's shrine, at which the Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament was given.

Home storage and cooking methods must be considered, for it fiere that much of the waiste occurs. In general vegetables should be stored in a cool place in order to retain all of the food valua possible. The leafy ones keep best when piled loosely in a covered vegetable pan or waterproof bag--preferably after washing and draining--and stored la the refrigerator away from the freezing unit. Cooking affects the coler, flavor and food value of all vegetable*. Serve them raw whenever possible and when necessary to Ncook check the time carefully and cook only until barely tender. Overcooking is the most common fault. •> Prepare vegetables Just before they are cooked or used. Place them in boiling salted water to reduce the cooking time and use as littla water as required to prevent burning. The color of green vegetables will be brighter and the flavor Of the strong-flavored ones more delicat'e, however, if more water is used in cooking them. . Start frozen vegetables to cook before thawing. Place them in a pan immediately upon removal from the container and add only enough water to last during the short cooking period. T|)e blanching and freezing processes break down the tissues so that less time is required for cooking frozen vegetables than the fresh ones. i'y~ ...

A large crowd attended the Hergoth- Michels wedding dahce and reception last week. Preserve Refrigerator It is good practice to defrost the refrigerator regularly and before the frost becomes a quarter of an inch thick. A heavy coat of frost not only makes freezing take longer but slows d,own the cooling of foods. at intervals of five to six hours, or an average of four times in 24 hours. This plan is continued for three to five days, when bucket-feeding is begun. Muzzling the calf between nursings is also a satisfactory method of preventing overfeeding if the calf is left with the cow. The amount of milk that is bucketfed daily the first week is about 6 per cent of the body weight of the calf and is preferably divided into two or three feedings.
