Canada In May to farm the nucleu
of the Fairbridge Farm School on
Vancouver Island, to be established
under scheme sponsored by the
Child Immigration scclety of Great
Britain to train English boys and
flrla In agriculture.
The society has purchased 1000
acres of land on Vancouver Island,
and building of homes for the chil

WASHINGTON (AP) New nursery school plana are popping at the
National Child Research Center, now that the president' daughter, Anna
Roosevelt Boettlger, la executive board chairman.
A toy and equipment shop, which really will be a highly specialised
consumers' service to parents of untler-school-age boys and glrla will be
opened In March.
Parent groups are organizing for lectures and for etudy, so that the
mothera and the father of the half-hundred very young adventurers into
new education fields can carry along at home the objectives of the
school.
A book consultation service la blng started, so that any parent can
come In and ask: "What shall I read to my little girl, aged four, who
would rather try to make airplanes than to ploy with dolls?"
Experiments llsm sited.
Experimental Idea are being talked over, tested out whether a
week-end service might be started for parenta who might wish to park
their children In a sale and educational spot while they themselves
got a Friday to Monday respite from
parental cares whether nursemaids
would respond to evening classes
where they might learn the new
methods of helping children to help
themselves.
Committees, active and advisory,
are being formed to grab and gather
In one place all the new progressive
Ideas of what to do about young
America from the age of a year and
a half until It graduate into kinder
garten at five.
That place la a charming old Wash
ing ton home, on a winding sequester
ed side street, with a big, shady yard
all filled with playground equipment
It opened seven years ago as a pioneer
nursery school.
Appeal to Pride.
It sunny rooms of white wood
work always are filled with the right
sited chairs and tables and toys to
bring out all the latent resourceful
neas which has been found present
to a surprising amount In even the
youngest of the girls and boys.
"Open the door for me, says tiny
Tommy to his teacher.
Oh. you open It for me you're a
gentleman, aren't you?" Is her good
natured answer.
And Tommy Is proud Indeed to
prove he can open the door.
Anna Roosevelt Boettlger looked
upon this nursery school picture from
a parental point of view, and became
more and more Interested in It.
Drnfted to I lend Rrhrml.
In childhood, she was one of the
little girls who wanted tools, rather
than dolls. She's now one of the few
feminine members In presidential
families ever to take out a design
patent. It was on a doll, however, a
bunny-doll, named "Scamper," the
White House rabbit about which she
wrote a book.
It happened quite naturally, there
fore, that she was drafted to head
the nursery school executive board.
In closest cooperation with directors
and teachers of this "teaching-by
play" project, which originally was
founded through a grant from the
Laura 8 pel man Rockefeller fund, and
which ha had the expert advice of
many groups of specialist.
Mrs. Boettlger and her committees
function In a practical, rather than
a theoretical fashion. Take, for In
stance, the subject of buttons.
Button, Button!
"One hundred and ninety-two but
tons a day, to button and unbutton
would you believe It?" queried Mrs.
Boettlger. "Well, If you wouldn't,
count It up. That sort of thing Is
slavery to any mother especially
when self-help clothing la now avail
able to children."
Cm a' nursery school desk was- a
pile of these self-help garments the
kind that are going to be shown in
the new shop to help parents help
themselves out of the buttoning and
unbuttoning grind.
"Of course, that's only one small
portion of the nursery school pro
gram," an Id Mrs. Boettlgor. "It Isn't
so necessary to explain the rest of It,
now that nursery schools have such
a good stnrt all over she country
through the federal emergency relief
program.
"But I do want to make clear that
a nursery school Is neither a plnce
where children are forced to learn
to read and write when tlvy aren't
ready for It, nor, on the other hand.
Is It a plaoe where they Just run wild.
"Thla school has a definite dally
schedule, with clearly crystallized
aims In view the learning of the
right health habits; the discipline,
that cornea from cooperative play
with other children, the early devel
opment of the sense of ihythm and
the use of body muscles. There are
stories, and music, and piny, thing!
to make, things to do, every day."

Knowing How Proteins Be
have Essential Control
of Heat Important Phase
in Preparing All Types
Protein Is one of the food sub
stances necessary to life. It la needed
for the building of muscles and oth
er tissues of the human body, plants
can makelt for themselves, out of
the substances they take up from the
sou, from air and water. We have to
get ours from the plant or the ani
mal foods we eat.
If we would be technical about It.
we should say not protein but pro
teins, for there la a considerable va
riety of these compounds, and sel
dom do you find one by Itself. White-of-egg
Is essentially a solution of pro
teins in water. The egg yolk con
tains other proteins. Meat contains
several kinds; so do fish and fowl;
so do milk and cheese and the le
gumens and nuts. Thla practically
completes the list of foods which are
commonly called protein foods. Cer
eals contain a good deal of protein,
and all vegetables contain some.
Know Your Proteins
When It comes to preparing the
protein foods, of course, says the Bu
reau of Hne Economics of the U.
S. Department of Agriculture. It la
necessary to know how the proteins
behave. Most of the egg protein, for
example, will dissolve in cold water.
That Is why you rinse a used egg cup
In cold water when you want to clean
It. Hot water coagulates the egg and
makes It stick to the china. High
temperature hardens most of the
proteins. This Is the fact that deter
mines the method of cooking pro
tein foods the secret of success Is In
controlling the heat to keep them
tender.
Some coagulation of protein takes
place even without heat. This hap
pens when you beat egg whites to a
foam. The beating makes the protein
firmer, so that it holds the air. With
too much beating the protein be
comes dry and brittle and the foam
finally breaks down.
Because egg proteins foam so eas
ily, the egg white can be used as
leavening. One egg will do the work
of a half -teaspoon of baking powder
in a cake. For a souffle, beat white
of egg to a foam and gently fold into
It white sauce made of fat, flour and
milk with the yolk of the egg to en
rich It and something to give It fla
vor. When you have baked it slowly
In an oven with low heat, you have
a souffle. A fluffy omelet Is made
this way, and cooked in a frying
pan. A meringue, or a fruit whip fol
lows the same principle, that Is, cook-

mi th a low beat and Just long enough
to be tender and not "fall."
Acid Proves Aid
Another Important thing to know
about white of egg proteins as a lea
ven Is the effect of adding acid. To
mato Juice In a fluffy omelet; cream
of tartar In angel cake; or lemon
Juice in sponge cake Increases the
quantity of the egg foam, and makes
It more tender.
Again, and still without cooking,
there Is the effect of the egg pro
teins tn salad dressings. French dress
ing, though you can mix the oil and
vinegar, will not stay mixed the
mixture, technically, is a temporary
emulsion. But In mayonnaise, where
you use egg with the oil and acid,
you get a permanent emulsion, be
cause the egg proteins have stabiliz
ed the mixture.
When heated, the proteins of the
egg behave In other Interesting ways
Important to the cook. Perhaps you
use egg to clarify coffee, or soup. You
put the egg white only a little of
It Into the cold liquid and It dis
solves. But as it is heated II coagu
lates, and the particles of protein
draw to them wives the coffee dust,
or any fine particles there may be
in the soup, and you can pour off, or
strain out a clear liquid. You can use
egg shells for this purpose. In fact,
because a little of the egg white al
ways clings to the shell enough to
clear your coffee.
How To Poach Egga
When you poach an egg you drop
it Into boiling water (this Is not
breaking the rule against boiling
temperature In egg cookery, because
the egg Itself cools the water in
stantly) and the sudden heat Into
which the egg falls coagulates the
outside protein Just enough to keep
the egg whole while It cooks. Salt in
the water, or a little vinegar, or a
little of both, helps to keep the egg
whole. But you do not let the water
get back to boiling after the egg goes
in. For a soft poached egg, you prob
ably cover the pan, take it off the
fire, and let It stand till the egg Is
firm enough to suit you. If you want
the egg solid all through, you may
keep It on the fire, but you keep the
water at very low heat.
Cooking eggs in the shell takes
more time than poaching, of course,
because the shell Is a poor heat-con
ductor and the heat cannot pene
trate the egg Itself so readily. But
again, you dont let the water boll
after you put In the egg. And when
you fry eggs, you break them into a
pan with a little fat Just moderately
hot. You keep the heat low, so the
eggs will be tender, and have no lit
tle frills of dried albumen around the
edge.

Eggs Benefit Custards
In custards, you get the benefit
of the thickening power of egg pro
teins, if you are making a "boiled"
custard which never should be boll,
ed, of course, but Just kept at an
even heat In a double boiler over hot
water that Is not boiling hot If you
are making this kind of custard, you
stir It gently while It la ( cooking, In
order to get the thick, amooth, creamy
consistency which mtkea the perfect
soft custard. But If you are making
baked custard, you do not stir the
mixture while It Is cooking. You keep
the oven low, and you set the cus
tard In a pan of water to make It
cook slowly enough to form a "gel"
that la firm but very delicate. But
you don't keep it In the oven too
long, because after a time, even with
low heat, the custard will "separate"
which means that the protelna
form a hard "coagulum" which sep
arates from the liquid and your cus
tard becomes watery.
Meat proteins and milk protelna
behave In some special ways of their
own, but the cooking principle la
the same control of the heat. Meat
cookery Is a story In Itself, however,
and so Is the cooking of milk and
cheese.
