Easter shoppers who like leather gloves to accent their new Spring en semble are in for a pleasant sur prise. There is a record - break ing assortment around in new colors and treatments to coordi nate with this Spring's casual dress-up fashions. On the scene is fashion's perennial favorite, kidskin but with a difference. This year it is treated with a brand-new process that makes it gossamer-thin and luxurious ly silky to the touch. The new leather is particular ly effective in white and new gloves in this group show dress maker treatment with fine tucks, clockwork and trapunto embroi dery. The very short white glove retains top place in popularity. However, the newer 4 - button and 6 - button length is growing in importance. It is particularly suited for wearing with the new three-quarters sleeve or smartly crushed over the stylishly new long, tight sleeve of current important this year are the colored leather gloves. They are being shown in shock colors which won wide recognition at the recent Paris fashion open ings. They include such vibrant tones as cherry jubilee, spicy oriental yellow, sun orange, and cornflower. Among the paler tones are hyacinth, wild lime, frosting blue, white poinsettia, and grecian turquoise. A pair of leather gloves in any of these colors can be worn to key up navy and black costumes of this year's or last year's vintage; as well as natural ensembles such as beige or grey. " There is much fresh styling among the new leather gloves. New treatments include cuffed wrists and bowknot construc tions at the hem of the shorter glove, scattered pearl buttons and flowerlets on the longer one. Many of the dressier de signs for after-five-wear show borders of rice pearls or crystal beads at the wristline or an over all embroidered jewel pattern in multi-pastel pearls. 4 U. S. Hens Working Harder Every Year : Los Angeles (U.R) Average egg production per hen has gone from 122 eggs yearly up to 183 in the last 19 years, and people now consume 30 pounds of chick en yearly instead of 18 pounds a few j'ears ago. C. A. Salverson, Los Angeles county farm advisor of the Uni versity of California, said other national developments in the poultry business in the last few years include reduction of hatch ery chick mortality to 3 per cent. He said fryer production has risen about 20 per cent each year for the last 16 years, and that birds now are grown with less feed .and in less time. Seven years ago 4.1 pounds of feed were required for a pound gairt on a fryer, and 89 days were needed to grow a three-pound bird. In 1952 the feed was 3.4 pounds, while the time dropped to 72 days.

What happens to the frozen food in a home freezer when the power goes off? Nothing, if you keep the freezer door closed. - Miss Mary Beth Minden, ex tension home management spec ialist at Oregon State college, says there's nothing to worry about if electricity is off only a few hours. With the freezer door closed, food will stay frozen a day or two, and it won't start to spoil for about three days, she states. Opening the freezer to see if food is getting soft will only speed up the thawing, she says, keep the door closed. Only ex ceptions are to put in dry ice, to take the frozen food out to i locker plant, or to get food need ed during the emergency. If you live in a place where electricity is off for hours or days at a time, you can take some precautions, she says. One is to find the nearest place that sells dry ice. Many dairies or cold storage warehouses sell it. Put some dry ice in the freezer, and it will keep food frozen. ' Another -"'ution is to contact the nearest locker plant. You may be able to take your food there for safekeeping. More information on what to do when the home freezer stops is available from county home extension agents. Dr. Hurlock As We Live . It is usual for those who like people and enjoy being with them to be popular. It is also usual for those who shun so cial contacts to be unpopu lar. The person who like peo ple shows it in his behavior. He is kind, s y m pathetic, gracious, and interested in the people he is with. He goes out of his way to be friendly. No wonder people like him. By contrast, the person who does not like people is so self bound that he does nothing to make others feel that he is any thing but bored with them. He lets others know, by what he says and does or doesn't do, that he would rather be alone. Naturally they resent this. To be liked by others, than, it is obvious that you must like people. Not just certain people who you think are worth both ering with. That attitude is like ly to make you cold and unre sponsive. You must be genuine ly interested in all sorts of peo ple if you are to be warm and friendly at all times. The best way to develop this interest m people is to try to find something interesting in every one. The people you may regard as dull are likely to turn out to be quite different from what you thought they were. By cultivat ing an interest in everyone you meet you will soon discover that you are actually liking people. And they, in turn, will like you. Letters From Readers NEW CLOTHES: "Wh is it that new clothes do so much for a person's morale?. I find that when I am tired or de pressed, a new hal or dress makes all the difference in the world in the way I feel." , (A) Ne'w clothes can make a person feel like a new person. In that way, they eliminate the dis couragement that comes from feeling a bit shabby and down-at-the-heel. The only person who is not helped by new clothes is the person who does not care for clothes or who feels ill-at-ease and conspicuous in new clothes. Few people, fortunately, teel that way. TEENAGE SNOBBERY: "My daughter is always saying how snobbish high school students are and . how difficult th.s makes it for anyone who does not belong to the inner circle. I don't remember my genera tion behaving like this. Is this a new trend?" (A) There have been snobs since the beginning of time, but unquestionably, snobbery L greater in the high schools today than it used to be. The more emphasis there is on social life and this emphasis is gettirg stronger all the time the more snobbery there will be among the students.

Detroit (U.R) Fish is not brain food, white eggs are no more nourishing than brown ones, raw meat isn't more nour ishing than cooked meat, food left in open cans will not spoil and raw foods are not the best. '. These and other popular myths about food have been ex ploded by Wayne University professor Marquetta Huyck. "These food fallacies," said Miss Huyck, "stem from theories based on insufficient laboratory evidence and distortions of facts for personal exploitation." Miss Huyck pointed out that meat proteins are not damaged by heat and cooked meat is more palatable and easier to digest than raw or rare meat. The difference between white and brown eggs is merely one of geographical preference. There is no diff erence, in nutri tive values. Food left in an open can in the refrigerator is safe, although acid foods may change flavor. Fish is not a brain food and no one has yet discovered a food v that specifically aids brain ac tivity, Miss Huyck said. Raw foods are not the best because cooking kills germs and improves digestibility, said Miss Huyck.
