Tips on Temperatures at Which Te Store Various Foods Properly

In New York by Helen Worden

NEW YORK, Dec. 23.-The war has altered the face of New York overnight. Everywhere I notice changes. In some of the smaller Fifth Avenue shops workmen can be seen building basement shelters in preparation for a blackout. There's been a run on flashlights in the department stores. Over on Eighth Street everything is already dark at Shima's, until now one of the gayest Greenwich Village restaurants.

the outbreak of war. Coming by the Federal Office Building today, I saw a line of boys three-abreast stretched down the block. As they waited to enlist, the youngsters wise-cracked good naturedly and cheered each girl that passed. You could have thought they were a bunch of kids standing in line before a baseball game. Women, too, are wearing uniforms now, though I can’t say much for the cut or style of their new suits. Many are serving as air-raid wardens and auxiliary police. Most agree that it will take more than a bomb to drive them from New York. Like the men, they seem determined to keep cool. “Everyone out our way is very calm,” Mrs. Carl H. Donner of Summit, New Jersey, told me recently. “Several of us have been appointed air-raid wardens, but we're waiting ‘to have a meeting to learn our duties.” Summit has already had two alert drills. All the public school children were sent home. “But that only resulted in much helter-skeiter,” said Mrs. Donner. “The Short Hills Country Day School which our children attend followed a better system. They took all the students down to the gymnamium where they practiced for an actual raid.” Mrs. Donner has been actively participating in war relief work for some time She works at the Refugee Relief Room in Summit which is under the direction of Mrs. John Martin Curtis. The commit tee has been making T2-piece layettes to be used wherever the war has left a need for them,

dale, and Mr, and Mrs. E. D, Andrews of New York. Mrs, Andrews is a sister of Mr. Donner, “After Christmas Mr. Donner and I will go to Lake Placid for a week of skiing,” said Mrs. Donner. “Mother will stay with the children while we're gone, We expect to be up there over New Year's.” The Donners are a family of skiing enthusiasts. Before the war they used to go abroad for their sport. Nowadays they have to be content with the mountains of northern New York, New England, and Canada. “The children all ski, too,” she told me, “but they find the hills at the Golf Cougse steep enough for them. Louise is eight now, Carl Phillips, five, while Susie is just three.” » » 8 THE FRANKLIN RAND McGEES will drive to Southboro, Mass, for Christmas.

Answer—Since I do not know the| young man I cannot speak with authority but the way you state the problem makes me feel that there are serious elements of risk in the situation which should cause you to wait for some time before you marry. - For one thing you are only 17% and actually too young to marry. The man is i2 years older than you are, which constitutes another hagard. More serious still is his tendency to drink and falsify the facts. A few months of abstinence do not indicate that he is cured by any manner of means. Some jealousy on the part of a lover may be normal, but when carried to extreme it is cause for alarm. If you were flirtatious and encouraged the attention of other men, we could say that he had some basis in fact for his jealousy but when he objects simply to the fact that men look at you, he is going out of his way to look for trouble.

Glass Tips

If beverage glasses are allowed to stand some time without washing after using, they will be sticky and difficult to cleanse. Try them with cool, soapy water and letting them stand until ready to wash. You'll find the task will go quickly and easily.
