Give Him Better Light
and He'll Do a Better Job
That man of yours—no matter what
his job—is helping to defend America.
Perhaps he is actually helping to make
ammunition. Perhaps he is just work-
ing harder at his regular job because of
vacancies caused by army, navy, or in-
dustry. One thing is sure. He is work-
ing harder than he ever did before.
During these days of stress and strain
it is doubly important to conserve our
energy and our eyesight. So—in your
home, wherever eyes are used for close
seeing, sewing, reading, working, or
playing, make sure you have protec-
tive lights. It costs less today than ever
before. ^

A Few Hints:
In this day of rubber shortage if
you want to preserve bathing caps
and bathing shoes, cover them well
with inicum powder before packing
them away for another season. This
will prevent the rubber from crack-
ing. A subscriber suggests that be-
fore you store your screens, if you
wish to p'eserve them from rus .
grease them well with vaseline.
In Your Garden:
Between the light frost and the
change which follows, to freezing
weather, is when the gardener gets
soil ready for his spring planting.
He turns the ground over, adds
fertilizer and leaves the soil In a
roughly spaded state. Frosts to
come will break up the clumps. The
open soil makes it easy for frost
to enter into the soil and refine
it. Insects are killed in this manner
of spading because the frost in-
jures them.
Inspirational:
Life means, not submission to,
but mastery of, environment— Ab-
don El-Tabakh. #
Week's Best Recipe:
Honey Hermits: 1 cup butter, l'i
cups strained honey. 1 t soda, 3
eggs, 1 t salt, 5 cups sifted flour,
2 t cinnamon, 21 < cups raisins
iseedlessi, 2". cups chopped nut
meats. Dissolve soda in the honey
that has been warmed, add butter
and cream mixture well together.
Beat eggs well and add. Sift flour
with salt and cinnamon added, to
first mixture and lastly the raisins
and nut meats. Stir stiff with all
ingredients and drop from teaspoon
on buttered sheet. Bake in moder-
ate oven.
Just In Case:
If your finger:; become jammed,
immerse your hand in water as hot
as you can bear it and rub vigor-
ously. Bandage them after you ap-
ply vaseline . . . You may be troub-
led with Inflamed eyes, so in order
to gain relief dissolve teaspoon
of soda In a glass of tepid water
and use solution as an eyewash
For nausea, apply hot applications
to abdomen and 1 ake a soda mint
tablet, or 1 teaspoon of baking
soda In a glass of water. Some-
times sucking small pieces of ice
At least you won't be over-come
with envy for your Claude neigh-
bor's new car! #
