Helpful Hints Now that winter is approach ing, you can give your plants added nourishment by allowing them, too, a few minutes under the sunlamp with you. You'll find the results will be . well worth the effort of gathering them together from all parts of the house. . . . Shut-ins who must stay in bed, may find that their heels are apt to rub raw against the sheet. Plump rings of gauze wrapped cotton will cushion the heel, thus preventing irritation and alleviating the condition if it has already occurred .... Keep your curtains, especially the lace or openwork type, hanging evenly on the windows by putting them up while still damp, and fastening the hem to the edge of the win dow sill with thumb tacks. This will enable you to make pleats if desired. When the curtain is dried, remove the thumb tacks and you'll have a lovely looking window without the fuss of set ting up curtain stretchers or iron ing. , , Two or three rows of machine stitching along the sel vedge or outside edge of your curtains will help prevent ripping or stretching eut ef shape In laundering . .

And a partial answer, may come from better menu planning, says Borden's Consumer Services. Plan to use more dairy products, they advise, because considering price for value received, you can't do better. Then, too, they hold al most endless possibilities for pre paring foods which are top-notch for taste and appearance. When you take a look at your menu for ways and means to save money, resolve that you will cling to one rule: Don't skimp on food values or food appeal. Instead find less expensive but appetizing ways to keep nutritive values high. There are ways to do this. "Cheese Tomato Puff" is a new recipe developed in the kitchen of Consumer Services of the Borden Company, and it will help you ful fil this goal. Both in taste appeal and nutritional value, it s a step-ped-up version of the popular macaroni luncheon recipes. In it you will find evaporated milk, cheese and eggs, all excellent foods to use in main dishes be cause of their high quality protein as well as other nutrients. When you try the new recipe, your fam ily won't be thinking about your economy drive. Instead, they will compliment you on your new aisn, Here Is the rec'pe: Cheese Tomato Puff (Makes 8 Servings) Vt cup 1 - inch pieces uncooked macaroni 2 tablespoons butter , 1 tablespoon onion . 2 tablespoons flour . 1 teaspoon salt Few grains pepper Vt teaspoon celery salt '4 teaspoon dry mustard Vi cup evaporated milk 1 cup drained, cooked or canned tomatoes y lb.

' Now is the time when Community Chest campaigns are being held in practically every community of the State of Ore gon. The majority 01 tne people are interested in helping tne neeay and dependent children and all can help by making ample contributions.' It's a red feather in your cap when you can start a chain reac tion of good deeds! That s what one motherly woman did. Let's call her Mrs. Lola Loar. You see, she loves babies loves taking care of them even other people's babies" and even after she brought up three children of her own! Red feather services like the child caring agencies of the Oregon Chest are always looking for good foster mothers women who will give loving care and af fection to children made tempor- arily homeless by some family emergency. The cost of room, board and medical attention is taken care of by these child car ing agencies from funds received through the Oregon Chest. But something more is needed. Mother love real or foster kind is one of the things that science hasn't been able to replace with a gad' get. This affectionate attention helps children feel that they "be long" to someone at an age when it is very important for them to feel secure. It isn't every woman who can make a "business" out of loving other people's babies! It's a job that has to be thoroughly enjoyed, and Mrs. Loar is one of those rare women who enjoys it so much that she has inspired her daughter . . . and now her grand daughter to open their homes to homeless babies, too. Some of these babies will go back to their own homes when conditions there are right again and some will be adopted into new homes . . . after a period of study for health rea sons. Meantime ' these Oregon child caring agencies are responsi ble for these little lives, oversees every detail of their living in the temporary ifoster home, and goes about the business of talking with would-be adoptive parents, try ing to solve family problems in the babies' own homes, and gives the children medical and psychiatric care. It all costs money, too . . . anywhere from $800 to $1,000 per child sometimes. That's where some of your Community Chest pledge goes! These baby lives are worth every penny, of the care they get . . so give . . . and give generously for these red leather services through your local Com munity Chest. carry a painful sting to Moscow.
