Fill it to capacity, of course, but leave at least a one-inc- h space between ev-ery pan and the edge of the oven. Inspect baking foods frequently and turn them about for even cooking. Once a week garbage pails should be scalded with hot soda water and allowed to dry thorough-ly in the sun. , A cottage cheese ring makes a delicious and cool-looki- mold for fruit or vegetable salad. Stiffen cottage cheese with a little gelatin or press the cheese into a buttered mold and let stand in a cold place. i Dust is easily removed from reed furniture when a hose is used. Set furniture on the lawn when the sun is shining and play the hose on it. Children will want to hang up their clothes if the closets are gaily and attractively decorated. To keep apples, bananas, fresh peaches or other salad fruits from darkening, cover the cut fruit with french dressing and store in the refrigerator At serving time, mix them quickly with the other in-gredients. To make a gelatin dessert in layers divide jelly in three por-tions and put one portion in bottom of mold. When firm decorate, if desired, with candied cherries and cover with a second portion, beat-en until light. When that is firm cover with a layer of plain jelly. Mold, chill, cut in slices and serve. The different layers may be col-ored pink and green. To remove old wallpaper stir a quart of flour paste into a pail of hot water and apply the mixture to the walls. Being thick it will not dry quickly but wDl saturate the paper which may be easily scraped or peeled off. The next time you make corn fritters to serve with chicken add some chopped, cooked bacon or ham to the batter. It is a mistaken idea that cu-cumbers must be soaked in cold water for some time before serv-ing to remove the poison in them. They are not poisonous. Slice them and cover with ice until ready to serve, then remove ice. J. Fuller Pep By JERRY LINK I been readln about some of these divorces and It seems to me hus-bands are tike automobiles.

Map shows importance of Port Moresby, New Guinea, in the Japanese l; South Pacific strategy. Port Moresby is only 375 miles from Cape York, S nearest point on the Australian mainland. The Japs crossed the Owen Stanley mountain range, thus overcoming one of their major obstacles. n Australians fighting the Japs in the jungles near Port Moresby were re-ported to be using the enemy's own tactics of covert flanking movements and infiltration. t RED FRONT: In More Than Name The need, for a second front In ' western Europe to relieve the pres- - sure on battered Red armies was emphasized by Soviet military ex-- perts in London, who needed only to point to the battle fronts for evi--Ij dence. j Russian troops, obeying Stalin's order to die rather than retreat, made the Nazis pay with blood and lives for every foot of conquest at s- Stalingrad. The arrival of crack Si--" berian troops at Stalingrad slowed ' down Marshal Von Bock's German 1 legions, but the picture, in general, remained as gloomy as before. Official communiques told of suc-- " cessful Red defensive operations in the Mozdok area of the and southeast of Novorossisk. Marines were credited with the suc-cess near the latter front where the Nazis were attempting to drive southward along the coast. Stiff fighting continued in the Vor-onezh area of the upper Don river. The Reds reported more than 3,000 enemy troops killed in three days of fighting in this sector. It was here where the Red army tried to relieve pressure on Stalingrad by constant-- I ly attacking the Nazi flank. 1 Russian troops in the Volga, city had been by workers re-cruited from factories. Most sav-age fighting took place in the north-west suburbs, where Russian and German troops fought from behind barricades and buildings separated only by a few yards. INFLATION: First Major Victory A preliminary victory in the fight against inflation resulted when the senate and house banking and cur-rency committees approved legislat-ion directing President Roosevelt to stabilize wages and prices and granting him power to carry out the orders. The senate bill authorizes and di-rects the President to stabilize prices, salaries and wages on the basis of levels which existed on Sep-tember 15, while the house bill in-cludes the same provision except that August 15 would be the base date. " Both bills provide that in general no ceilings may be set on wages or salaries below the highest levels that prevailed between January 1 ' and September 15. Both prohibit " ceilings on farm prices less than 100 per cent of parity or in general below the highest price paid be-tween January 1 and September 15. Both bills contain exceptions. The house measure adopted the "little steel" formula insofar as per-mitting wage increases up to 15 per cent more than the January 1, 1941, level, but gets the President power to grant increases above that figure. The two measures placed a floor ot 90 per cent of parity under basic commodities (wheat, corn, cotton, tobacco and rice) and under cer-tain nonbasic commodities which 'he secretary of agriculture is at-tempting to increase for war pur-poses. Existing law requires 85 per cent of parity loans. PROMISE: Of Essential Rubber Sufficient rubber for military and essential civilian needs has been promised without reservation by William M. Jeffers, the nation's new rubber administrator. An amount of syn-thetic rubber will be made accord-ing to established processes, he said, and research will continue. Mr. Jeffers spoke bluntly in his first interview with the press. "What we need is action, and we need it quickly. We are going to get just that." It is his belief, Jeffers said, that the people "are more confused about what to do than not willing to do what is right." "You can't take America off wheels," he said. "You can lose the war doing that, because of the dis-ruption it would cause in our econ-omy. You have to have civilian trucks running to move goods .and farm products, for instance, and you have to have buses and a cer-tain number of passenger cars to take people to and from work. But you can reduce the use of rubber to the irreducible minimum! MAN POWER CONTROL : Advocated by Hill A bill granting President Roose-velt broad authority to man power and industry during war-time was drawn up by Senator Lis-ter Hill of Alabama, the Democratic whip. The measure authorized the Presi-dent to issue an executive order giving the government power to designate specific occupations for individuals not in the armed serv-ices. Hill suggested that man power control be exercised through local draft boards which could tht;n call in workers employed in nonessential industries and order them to take war plant jobs. The resolution would lay down a governmental policy "that there shall be universal service of all citi-zens" and "total mobilization" of industry. JAP NAVAL THRUST: Routed in Solomons Even while land' activity in the Sol-omons slowed to minor skirmishes, army Flying Fortresses drove a Jap force of battleships and cruisers away from the American-hel- d sec-tion of the islands with a bombing attack which was reported to have damaged two of the battleships. The bombers discovered the Jap battle force northeast of Tulagi. The navy communique indicated the pos-sibility that the fleet may be as-sembling for a renewed effort to take the strategic Guadalcanal-Tu-lag- i area from American forces. From General MacArthur's head-quarters came word of continuing air attacks against the vital Japa-nese base at Lae, on the northeast coast of Lae. A report said that Allied fighters and bombers blasted Japanese supply lines extending in-land from Buna to Kokoda, on the route of the Jap drive toward Port Moresby. Buna is 175 miles south-east of Lae, on the coast.

An Unnatural Liking - Success is attained not by doing the things we like, but by liking the things we have to do. Perhaps the reason romance lasted longer in the old days was because the bride looked the same after washing her face. If a man doesn't know anything, he will tell you all about it at great length. When one will not, two cannot quarrel. Pleasant Wishing It is more consoling to wish that one were as young as those who value the ephemeral enjoyments of youth than to look contemptu-ously on youth that overestimates them. If you wait too long for some-thing to turn up, it may be your toes. If you want to leave footprints on the sands of time you must have plenty of sand. Aggravated Fellow Didn't Tell All, It Seems "Going far?" asked the chatty little man in the club car as the open fields began to whisk by the train windows. "Only to Pittsburgh," replied the grouch, who had been in Washington filling out question-naires. "I'm in the steel brace business. My age is 53. I am married. My name is Henry Smith. I have a son 22 in the field artillery. And a niece with red hair. I shoot around 89 in golf. Is there anything else I can tell you?" "Yes," replied the chatty little man amiably. "What oil do you use for your tongue?" Yehiss! "Hitler certainly takes a hissing at the newsreels, doesn't he?" "Yes, his name will be a by-word in hisstory." Keen Competition Wife The new nurse is very sci-entific. She never lets anyone kiss the baby when she is around. Husband Who would want to? That Also Gob Do you dance? Date Oh, yes, I love to. Gob Well, then let's love. Epitomized The war department, in "Be-hind Your Army," reports the plight of a sweetheart whose sol-dier was somewhere in the Pacific area. ' She tore open his letter to find inside this typed slip: "Your boy friend still loves you. But he talks too much." It was signed, "Censor." Work is such a fascinating thing that most people can sit and look at it for hours. Ah, Why? The minister wus trying to teach the significance of "white" to a Bible school class. "Why," he said, "does a bride invariubly desire to be clothed in white for her marriage?" As no one answered, he explained: "White stands for joy, and the ivedding day is the most joyful occasion of a woman's life." A small boy queried: "Why do the men wear biack?" CAUTIOUS AGE "Papa," asked Willie, "what is middle age?" "It's the time of life, son," he replied, "when you would rather not have a good time than recov-er from it." Slight Error "I have a beautiful home over-looking a private lake." "Why, I was out to your place and I didn't see a lake." "Emm er, well, that's what I overlooked." They say the biggest fool is the old fool. Well, he's had more time to practice. Still a Minority "Say, Bill. You didn't marry that girl back home while you were on vacation, did you?" "Almost, Joe. Two of us were willing me and the minister." Some Comfort Winston Churchill, the story goes, was walking through the ruins of some blitzed streets when an old woman greeted him. The prime minister asked her how she felt after the night of bombing. "Well, there's one thing about these air raids," she replied cheer-fully, "they do take your mind off the war." PREPAREDNESS AMERICAN RED CROSS ASSISTANCE to members of the nation's fighting forces and their dependents is the pri-mary duty of the Red Cross. This obligation is set forth in the charter granted the American Red Cross by congress in 1905, and in the army and navy regula-tions. It is also stated in the pres-ent selective service regulations, which require all draft boards to refer questions concerning the welfare of selectees and their de-pendents after induction to the Red Cross. Red Cross help to service men and their dependents takes two forms: In every army camp and with every American fighting unit anywhere a Red Cross field direc-tor is on the job. His duty is to help the service man with his problems and relieve him of wor-ry over them. In nearly every county in the United States is a local Red Cross chapter, with a home service worker. Its job is to help the serv-ice man's dependents, and relieve them, too, of worry and need. Assistance to members of the armed forces may take the form of advising them or their depend-ents on government life insurance, allotments or pensions, and of helping them in filling out the nec-essary application forms. The Red Cross may even help members of the service man's family in getting employment, emergency medical treatment, or it may grant them money to tide the family over until an allotment is actually received from the gov-ernment. The Red Cross isalso the "Mr. Fixit" for the service man wher-ever he may be, whether on duty or on leave. It assists in getting extension of furloughs when nec-essary, and in making loans or other arrangements for visits home in cases of serious illness or death in the family. More than 2,500 field directors with the armed forces, and 3.735 Red Cross chapters throughout the nation stand ready to help and advise service men and their de-pendents.
