EXPERT TO REVEAL i CAN GOODS SECRET

Times Cooking School Head to Tell Housewives How to Judge Grades. Could America’s pioneer mother take a casual glance at her daughter’s shopping bag. she would be amazed at the apparent blindness with which modem women buy their foodstuffs. “How do you know what you are getting, when everything is hidden away in boxes or tin cans?’’ undoubtedly she would ask. Mrs. Dorothy Ayers Loudon, expert in the science and art of homemaking. who pointed out the change in shopping conditions, declared that the modern housewife must be something of a seer to be a successful shopper. She mast be able to read through labels and packages to know what she is getting. That this may be done Mrs Loudon assures homemakers, and she expects to prove her assertion when she conducts The Times cooking school here next week. Problem Is Simple The institute will be held in the English theater. Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday at 2, and Thursday night at 7:30. “All women wonder what is in the can they are buying, but few now know how to determine contents they can not see," Mrs. Loudon said.

Will Reveal Secrets In the course of cooking school demonstrations and lectures here. Mrs. Loudon intends to let housewives in on some of the mysteries of canned products which at present are unknown to them. She will tell them how to know grades and contents in ’blind” packages as well as in those that are transparent. The whole matter of marketing
