Leather Gloves
Now on Market
In Many Colors
New York U.P.) 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.

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.

On Cars of Freezer
When Electricity Off
. 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.

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.

platinum coat? This is often done
with gold rings. In that way

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.
If you need a temporary play
pen for a child, take a table,
turn it upside down, and wind
a sheet around the legs.
