WHILE HOME CANNED PEACHES are rarely as beautiful as com-

merically canned, they are as a rule far superior in flavor,

The chief

defects in home canned peaches are a mushy and discolored fruit in the

top of the jar.

The first is due to the use of over-ripe fruit and harsh handling; the second to insufficient sirup to cover fruit. The use of ascorbic acid

(vitamin C) tablets now available for canning helps prevent discoloration, » » "

"|Avoid Rich Sweets {In Hot Weather

For refreshment in hot weather, turn from rich, sweet snacks to light, tart and salty foods. A tall fruit drink with” some salty crackers is much more refreshing than a cup of cocoa or a piece of cake, The reason is that cverybody needs extra salt and extra liquids

during the summer months, but requires fewer heavy, sweet foods. It boosts hot weather energy and it stretches the waning sugar supply to use fruits and salty foods such as crackers, pretzels and potato chips instead of sweets for be-tween-meal eating.

AMERICAN DESIGNERS: NO. 14

Philip Mangone Carries On

By LOUISE FLETCHER Times Woman’s Editor AMONG HIS employees he is known affectionately as “Popsie.” To the public he is Philip Mangone, probably the best-known designer of coats and suits in the country. His collections, for the most part conservative - classics, are held in such high regard for their fine tailoring that in many stores there is a separate Mangone department.

He really can be described as a

“born tailor.” Behind him are seven generations of Mangone tailors. His father, Francesco Mangone, was born in southern Italy and followed his trade there, He traveled among the homes of the wealthy, stopping at each

until he and his staff of workers

had finished complete wardro for the women of the manor. And “complete wardrobes,” according to his famous son, meant

everything from corsets to outer-

wear. Ld " »

COMING TO this country, Mr. Mangone’s father held jobs as head tailor in a number of big establishments. The family, including six children, lived in New York’s Greenwich Village. There Philip went through the eighth grade with which his formal education ended. And there he had his first experience in garment making, working after school on the bundles of semifinished clothes which manufacturers “farmed out” to home workers. When he took his first fulltime job, it was in the alteration rooms of a big Fifth ave, store where his father worked. The father and son worked together for several other firms, too. After Philip’s first job, they joined a wholesale dress house and later were connected with other wellknown wholesale companies.

THE SON'S first designing job came while he was still of teenage. Before he was 20 he had made his first trip to Europe to buy woolens for his employer. (That was about 40 years ago and, until the war, he made four trips a year to Paris.) It was from his father that Mr. Mangone received the training that made him an unerring judge of fabrics and the ways they can be handled.

In 1916 he became the owner of

the firm for which he was then designing. Now he has a spacious showroom, workrooms and offices on Seventh ave. heart of New York's garment center, These adjoin his large factory. In addition he has a studio farther uptown. When he designs

MANGONE thinks that suits are the answer to all a woman’s clothes problems because they're wearable at any hour of the day. While he is especially noted for his classic tailored styles, his collections always feature some dressmaker type suits and coats.

He is given credit for inaugurating the swagger coat and the topper, the latter frequently accompanying a matching - suit. Capes, too, are often included in his lines. He had the job of designing the WAC uniform and coat, one that led to his including coats of military cut in his own collections. His admirable color sense probably is an outgrowth of his preference for attractive surroundings which, he thinks, are a stimulus to good work. In his fall and winter collection it is color contrast which is one

of the outstanding features. He does it with pipings, facings and inserts of color. Sometimes it’s a deeper shade of the basic color; sometimes it's vivid contrast for a neutral shade. » » »

First Aid Kits Need Care

By JANE STAFFORD Science Service Staff Writer MAYBE YOU cleaned aut the medicine chest during spring housecleaning time, but did you think to go over the family first aid kit and see that it was in good order? First aid kits at home are not the only ones that need proper care and vegular checking of their contents. In the small industrial plant store or office these kits should be in charge of one reliable person who is fully responsible for maintenance and upkeep of the kit and for giving first aid when it is needed. The first aid kit should not be locked, but it should not be available to anyone wishing to use it: contents without supervision or t anyone wishing to use it as a saf: |storage place. Nor is it the placer tor keeping medicines that are no properly used in first aid. » = s The danger of carelessness in thi respect is illustrated by an exampl from one industrial plant where a inspector found a bottle of hydro chloric acid, unlabeled, with an ey dropper beside it in the first aid kit Supplies for the first aid kit shoul be bought in very small container: so that once opened they can b destroyed. Once a roll of cotton o a package of gauze or other bandag has been opened, and a piece ton off and used, the rest of the gauz or cotton in the package is n: longer sterile, that is, germ-free.
