Since then he has received a clean bill of health which the navy accepted. Hejs now a sailor, leaves June 3rd. Wuce going. Bob. He was 18 May 1. * • On Wednesday, April 26, our son, Allan McKim, called from Illinois Centra^ rail road in Chicago to say goodH'f- He told us there were twelve of the boys from his company going along and they were on their way South. We received a telegram Friday telling us they arrived at Norfolk, Va., on Thursday. In a letter arriving Monday he told of the wonderful trip south. They had Pullman all„ the way, were served three meals on the train, 2 weVe chicken and one bacon and eggs. For pass time they played Pinochle, stopping only for sleep and food. Maurice Fernstrom, who has been in the navy almost two years, was a caller here Wednesday. He has been to Casablanca eight times, to Port Rica, Iceland and Greenland and numerous other places. "Alex Justen of the U. S. army spent Thursday afternoon visiting his many friends at McCullom Lake. He certainly looks fine. , . - One of the HammerStein homes has been sold. y / On April 21 Mr. and Mrs. O'Flaherty were in an automobile accident in Chicago. He had eight stitches taken. HiS.'wife is still in the hospital. * On April 27 Mrs. Kilfether and Mr. iz-jMoihers of teen-age gifls may, -be more valuable to the ri&tipn at home, guiding their daughters and know- j ing what they are doing than work-! ing in factories and allowing the, daughters tp become delinquents,' says Prof. B, F\ Timmons, University of Illinois sociologist. ' ""When p a r e n t s are too buSy and absent from home too much to provide proper sppervisiori for young teen-age girls, the girls are, not to be blamed," he. said. "Girls, who are ready for marriage at an earlier age than boys, | generally are required to be oldef i than boys for work eligibility in inj dustry or military service. It is ! easy for these younger girls to adopt | the belief that their most valuable | service to their country is to be companions for the men in military service or training, or about to be inducted into such service." | Jimmons pointed out that mini-; ; mum age limits for junior hostesses; | in USO clubs is Usually 18, andj these older girls are under supervision when associating with service! men, while the young girl under 18 meets strange men on street cor-! ners, ifi bus depots, or in taverns,' and entirely without supervision. ! j "Closer parental supervision and i j guidance are important to meet the | problem," he said. "Parents should » know the whereabouts of their young j teen-age daughters and the company I in which they are found. Planning | with the girls for social life is a helpful and positive way of guid- I ence." , , .

Dean Believes No radical changes should be made in America's educational sys-~ tem under the strain of war-time "tension, sentiment, and hallucinations," Prof. H. T. Scovill, acting dean of the University of Illinois College of Commerce and Business •-Administration, believes. "If we have not constructed our educational system on the proper basis during the decades down to 1940, certainly we should not expect to reconstruct it in the rush of war activities and unusual educational demands of the war period. "After deferred students--the veterans-- have been cared for in the first few years following the war, we can take time to survey the situation sanely and without sentiment, 1 tension, and hallucinations of the war period. "We need to guard against hasty actions of those who might try to use the hysteria of the war to put across pet schemes under the guise of necessity in a new social orde' when such schemes would not get" to first base in more nearly normal times," he said.

Three complete meals for the cost of a wedge of pie in the average American restaurant! Since the outbreak of the war t!ic United States Department of Agriculture and the food processors of the nation have been "working towards just such an achievement. Recently in Washington, D. C-. they proved that it has been accomplished. Relief foods sent to the reconquered countries must hot endanger this country's essential domestic *^?uPPlies. ^ same time, they WiW| must be of a high, nutritive quality to sustain and to rebuild populations, weakened and depleted by long-term starvation. Last, but not the least consideration, these foods must be produced and processed at a minimum, of cost to the nation. The latest results of experiments, balancing all three factors, were revealed at the dinner meeting of Food Forum before 700 federal, state and foreign officials in the Hot^l Sfatler, Washington, D. C., a short time ago. It was shown that a complete high protein diet for one individual for one day's consumption can bp produced, processed and packaged at the low cost of 13 cents. *fhis diet, largely the result of experiments instigated b; the War Food administration, in cpoperation with food producers, is simple fare but it is highly palatable, easy to prepare and easy to distribute. The foods were also tested in a unique manner. In connection with the important, morale-building factor of flavor, they were given to first and second ^generation families of foreign extraction. Each dbh has been made acceptable to these groups thru modifications according to their suggestions. One of the products, a succulent "stew" mix, 143.40 12.83 15.00 20.00 200.00 97.60 10.00 24yB0 20.00 60.00; 20.00 20.00 99.20 Women representatives of foreign countries, new members of the International Service group of the American Women*# Voluntary Services, recently sampled KBd approved ihe 13 cent a day relief diet. Pictured with Miss Betty Learning of the Department of Agriculture who prepared the foods are Mrs. John Hader of Norway, Mrs. ,G. N. Macready of France and England, and Mrs. Karcl Cervenka of Czechoslovakia. containing no meat, is the direct answer to a request by old country folk from a southern European area for a "chewy" dish. A day's meals, made from these foods, might include two ounces of wheat-soya cereal, one ounce of peasoya or cheese soup, one pound of bread and six ounces of stew mix. The nutritive value of the dishes is estimated at 108 grams of high quality protein, 9.44 grams of fat and 2,000 calories. PARENT TEACHERS ELECTION CRISP cheese and^larina croquettes, sautded onion Blices, and a boat of Creole Sauce give a real-life boost to the "use more abundant foods" theme that's back of the government's No-Point Low- Point Food Program.

Some operators then circle them when the sap is down (new moon) to deaden them. In about three weeks (dark of «the moon) the trees are cut into logs and hauled to the sawmill. Two logs usually are obtained from each tree. In the Pacific area a tree yields about 100 to 150 feet. In the Atlantic region, with lighter and smaller trees, the average is 75 to 125 feet.
