Hot Dogs and Rolls Are Good For Close-to-Home Picnics

| = THESE ARE OUT-OF-DOORS DAYS-—and this means that picnic - time is here. ‘But in wartime, and with gasoline restrictions, you no | longer get ‘out the hamper and pack food and family off to your favorite . spot for a pienic. Today's picnics, rather, are more likely to be giv- | en at home—on the porch, in the garden, or on the lawn, Toasted cheese buns with bacon is an excellent picnic fare. A frankfurter inside each bun with the cheese makes pedigree hot dogs. - For the woman who likes to bake bread at home, there is a recipe for buns below. Should you be planning to entertain friends for after-

afternoon, serve fresh baked strawberry muffins with cream cheese for an appropriate treat. ® = =

STRAWBERRY MUFFINS

2 cups sifted enriched flour 3 teaspoons baking powder 12 teaspoon salt 2 tablespoons sugar 1 egg 1 cup milk

Z DEAR JANE JORDAN—I am 25 and have been married. three years. My husband has been in the army a year. TI had been married before and was divorced. I told my husband all about my past. He is 31

giproblems.

and told me that he had never been married before, so I naturally believed him. | When we had been married- a year and a half he said he was leaving to go back west where he had lived before. I begged him to tell me the reason, but he said he couldn’t, although he said there was no one else he cared for. Afterward, when drunk, he told me he had a divorced wife and three kids in the West. I never dreamed of such a thing, When he came home he had no money, but I took him back because I felt sorry for him, We never did get along because he is so jealous of everyone. Since he has been in the arty he telephones me for money and some- . times just calls me up to talk. I have to accept the charges because I never know if it is important or not. One month my telephqne bill was $40. . He doesn’t support his kids and hasn't seen them for four years. He was married first when he was 17. Lately I heard he has another child, but he denies it, I thought of asking him for a divorfe, but I knew ' he could refuse. I met another man about nine | months ago who was going to the army in a few days, and we have been writing all this time. I told PY of my troubles and he wanled me to get a divorce. He wants me to come and see him at camp. ‘I think my husband has been “gent across. I have always been a good wife and work every day. Don't you think my husband’s place 4s near his children after the war 1s over. WORRIED. ie #8 =n .

Soap Is Altered To Aid War

Nation-wide efforts by the war production board to increase the supply of glycerin for use in explosives and othe war munitions will not affect the quality of soap. More than 90 per cent of our glycerin is produced in the process of making soap. Under a government order issued early in-the war the finished soap has been permitted to contain only from 1 to 2.75 per cent of glycerin. Now a sub-committee appointed to study glycerin recovery has recom-

mended -that the #mount of glycerin '# left in soap be reduced still further § to between .8 and 1 per cent, de- 2

pending upon the type of soap. “This,” says a WPB statement, “will increase the amount of glycerin recovered, without affecting will increase the cost to manufacturers.”

Welding Champ Meets the First Lady

WASHINGTON, June 2 (U.P.).— Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt yesterday presented to reporters the na-

tional woman's welding champion, a lithe, 19-year-old blond who said she makes between: $65 and $85 a week at her job. The champion, Vera Anderson of Gulfport, Miss.,, works at the Ingalls shipyard at Pascagoula, Miss. She and her runnerup, Mrs. Wilhelmina Straniska of the Oregon Shipbuilding Corp., Portland, were entertained by Mrs. Roosevelt as part of their reward. At a press conference, Mrs. Roosevelt asked the welders about eating facilities at the shipyards and was told that hoth carried their lunches. Miss Anderson commutes 37 miles each day. Mrs. Straniska works on the same shift with her husband, from 1:30 to 9 a. m.

Thrilled Over Job

Miss Anderson told reporters proudly that her welding record was “not very far below the men’s record.”. She said it takes “patience” to make a good welder. She said she was delighted that she was no longer a sales girl, her former job. On that job she earned only $15 to $18 a week. “I am thrilled to be doing this] job,” Miss Anderson said, adding as though in explanation that “my sweetheart is a sailor in the navy.”

“Going Home”

Mrs. Straniska, however, said she |is “going back home” as soon as | the war is over. : Miss Anderson presented the first | {lady with a welded paper-weight, | {after which the talk turned to the

| food conference at Hot Springs,

| Va. Mrs. Roosevelt said the conference is producing “a world picture of the food situation.” On other subjects Mrs. Roosevelt said that: Reports that 800 gallons | of milk were destroyed in New York last week “horrified” her. The coal strike is “a very sad thing.”

NEW DAYS, NEW WAYS

The basic facts of nutrition outlined in the .

eight preceding lessons are the weapons of the homemaker. Her share of the battle is in applying her knowledge to the daily selection of food. She can now look at the yardstick for measuring the daily requirements and prime heft guns for action.

She can see how far to be guided by the needs of the bbdy and how far to trust to appetite. “Eat what you like, after you have eaten what you should” is a good rule. She can now see

* clearly how one food will take the place of an-

other without changing the value of the diet.

Rationing is becoming more widespread and the choice of foods is more limited, Alternates to the scarce foods are’ required.

The following table divides the daily requirements as given in the yardstick, into twelve groups for convenience in planning meals. It shows the main contribution of each group to the diet and the amount needed every day. These will vary with the energy needs. “No calories without vitamins and minerals” is another goed rule. As the calories increase the protective food should increase in proportion,

ments® barely recognized, vitamins not yet identified and traces of minerals necessary for life .and health. They also contain fiber, or bulk, which is needed for intestinal health, and water, which forms the largest part of the body tissues.

The newer knowledge of nutrition has, however, made use of these synthetic vitamins to “fortify” some .food in common use. This is necessary: because of ehanges in our way of life which have robbed, us of some of the natural elements in food.’ :

This fortifying has been done under standards set up:by the federal government as recommended by the Food and Nutrition Board of the National Research Council.

BACK TO NATURE

The vitaming that are added to foods are those that we do not get in the amount in which they are found in Nature. Our ancestors ground the whole grains for their bread and cereals, They got all the vitamin and mineral values in the grain. Most of these values are in the

layer just under the husks, or in the fatty germ.

of the grain, When we make white flour all these are taken out. 3

These values are now replaced in “enriched” .

ar “restored” cereals, flour and bread. The mineral added is iron, the vitamins are thiamin and niacin. There may ‘be others added in ‘the white flour or bread back to the value of the whole grain, Some cereals add the wheat germ also. There are other minerals and vitamins in whol2 grains and the use of enriched bread and flour does not wholly take the place of whole grain products in the diet.

IN NATURE'S PLACE

Synthetic vitamins are used in our foods when natural sources are scarce or hard te get. Vita-

min D, made from cod liver or other fish liver

oils, is often added to diets, especially of children. Sometimes it is put in foods by irradiation. It is needed because fog and smoke shut out the sunshine which gives it to us, and because in the winter, often there is not enough sunshine,

Our main source of vitamin A is butter and cream, which are sometimes too searce or expensive for everyone to get all he needs. This vitamin is now put into fortified margarine so that these whe use it in place of butter will not lack this important element.

There were 385 millioh pounds of margarine used last year. It is composed of animal fats, cotton seed oil, oils from soy beans, peanuts or corn, or from imported oils from cocoanuts, palms, sesame or rape seed. It may be made from one or a combination of these fats. It may be churned in skim milk, and take up some of the values from the milk. - |

If margarine is made fram animal fats, it is manufactured under the provisions of the ¥ederal Meat Inspection. If from other fats, it comes under the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act. It must contain 80% of fat, the same as butter. One pound of either feod contains

3,400 calories.

Butter contains vitamin D as we A. Its vitamin A content varies of the year and with the diet 1,400 to 27,000 Internalighat Sue Margarine must be mar on the is fortified and contains 7,500 units
