L- Just one evidence of the cooperation between the armed and our vast industrial army a school for submarine ele conducted at one General Electric factory. c 1. Electricity is vital to the run ning of every submarine. It does an amazing variety of important jobs, from turning the propeller to cooking the coffee. W85m n t. For that reason, there must be well-trained electricians on every underwater craft. At this school, Navy electricians attend classes taught by G-E engineers 3 . and go out into the shops where they watch workmen construct the same kind of elec tric equipment that will some day be put in their charge. 4. This is but one proof of the thorough training which the U.S. Navy gives its men, so that the vital equipment of war will always be ready for action. General Electric believes that its first duty as a good citizen is to be a good soldier. General Electric Company, Schenectady, N. Y. 69-10-211 GENERAL ELE CTRIC HOW TO BE HAPPY AND SAVE SUGAR TOLD BY LEADER People can't get as much sugar as they would like. From a health standpoint they don't need as much as they normally get in fact, just about half that amount. The logical thing to do, therefore, is find ways of making the sugar allowance give a maximum personal satisfaction. This is the way Lucy A. Case, ex tension specialist in foods and nutri tion at O. S. C, sizes up the present sugar situation. It's no use to worry about exactly how much sugar is in the country, because with sugar now considered a Weanon nf war no a - r wwivc vi oi- ist inursaay, ivirs. j. n. tJryson cohol needed in explosives the gov- are economizing on sugar by ending the meal with a fruit salad or fresh fruit, instead of with a dessert re quiring more sugar. In cake making, sugar may be saved by omitting a frosting, or by using a filling of a fruit mixture or something else that does not take ordinary sugar. Finally, if iced drinks are used, they may be sweet ened with a thin syrup much more economically than with plain sugar. 0. M. Y EAGER CONTRACTOR AND BUILDER Cabinet and Mill Work HEPPNER, OREGON was honored by the members of the Ladies Aid in honor of her birthday. A group of friends surprised Mrs. Harvey Ring at her home last Sat urday, honoring her birthday. Mr. and Mrs. E. R. Lundell and Mr. and Mrs. Paul Pettyjohn made a week-end trip to Portland.

Cotter and Mrs Victor Riet mann, and guest prizes by Mrs. Clara Newlin and Mrs. Ella David son. The next study meeting will be at the home of Mrs. Victor Rietmann on June 12. ernment is sure to maintain a mar gin of safety to avoid such a critical shortage as has occurred with rub ber, she said. The sugar allowance provided, aside from that especially earmarked for canning, can probably be used to give most satisfaction in cooking and baking. Even there, however, other things can be used to substi tute for it. Corn syrup and honey may be used in many kinds of cook ed foods, or even to sweeten break fast cereals. The use of more dried fruits is a sugar-conserving measure, as many of them are almost sweet enough without additional sugar. Raisins or dried prunes added to certain dishes will provide sweetening as well as Dr. C. C. Chick and Miss Blanche fruit. Corn, carrots, and sweet po tatoes are rich in their own sugar, and will aid in providing a sweet taste to meals. Such deserts as custards, bread puddings, and others made with a large proportion of milk and eggs need much less sugar than many other desserts.
