Mrs. Ce cil Johnson and Mrs. Nina Du . aenberry were in charge of the Survey Shows That American Family's Health Has Improved From a potpourri of statistics reported by the Institute of Life Insurance comes a reassuring picture of the state of health of America's families, and of the financial protection related to the nation's well-being, which our families have acquired. In reviewing the health of 85.- 000.000 owners of ordinary life insurance policies, the Institute stated that the record for last year shows a decidedly im proved level of well-being. This is shown by the decline in the mortality rate of policy-holders, which dropped to a new low. Decreases in mortality rates werer noted for almost every major disease, according to Dr. Louis I. Dublin, eminent statis tician and consultant of health and welfare of the Institute. Last year was the second con secutive year in which the death rate of cancer was reduced. It was also the fourth consecutive year of reduction of diseases of the heart and circulation system; and the fifth consecutive for accidents. Health Improved The improvement in the state Visitors Visiting the Rev. and Mrs. H. R. Bulman, Knowles road re cently, were Mr. and Mrs. Leslie Harris of Seattle, nephew of Mrs. Bulman. They were accompanied here by Mrs. Harris' mother and brother, Mrs. Sarah Drury and Melvin Drury. and two nieces, all of Saskatchewan, Canada. Picnic Jolly Stitchers and their hus bands will hold the annual pic nic at the home of Mr. and Mrs. A. O. Floyd, 505 South Keenway drive, Friday, July 19, at 6:30 p.m. flowers and decorations, for the occasion. Mrs. Barker's corsage was white gladiola and pink Cecil Brunner rosebud made by Mrs. George Dorman. The next meeting of Amethyst Rebekah lodge will be held the first Wednesday in September. of health among policyholders naturally means a great deal to their families. It also has mean ing for the nation as a whole. Translated into terms which show the saving of human life, the lower mortality rate last year meant that some 9,000 ad ditional persons continuted to live. General improvement in health has a direct bearing on family security in two ways: in continued earning power, and in the greater number of fami lies who can acquire life insur ance protection. Life insurance has become available to practic ally all who apply for a policy. At this point in time. 87 out of 100 applications for policies are accepted. While five per cent of the total are accepted for life in surance on an extra risk basis, which calls for somewhat higher premiums because of reasons of health or hazardous occupation, even this small proportion seems to be declining, so that more persons can get life insurance at standard rates. One reason may be that even people with certain impairments are having normal life spans, and this fact is recognized by issuing policies i inctanrec at standard rates which would not have been true af few years ago. Two Return Home , After Trip East Mrs. Alvin Wikstrom and daughter. Miss Carol Wikstrom, 2216 Dellwood avenue, have re turned home following a month's trip east.

Fatties When using a moderate broil ing temperature, steaks, chops and patties need only to be turned once during cooking. When broiling, timing is im portant and should be watched closely to insure the best results. When broiling steaks or chops, season them on each side after browning. If seasoned before browning, the salt will tend to retard the browning , process. Roasts may be seasoned before or after cooking since season ings penetrate the meat less than inch. Outdoor Cookery Outdoor cookery has attracted many an amateur chef in re cent years. When broiling steaks, chops or patties over a grill dur ing an open air meal, make sure the flames of the fire have died down. Cook the meat over glow ing coals. Meat Salad Idea Meat salads lend themselves well to serving as entrees dur ing the summer months. Ai a quick meat salad idea combine pineapple chunks with cubes of cooked ham or veal. Add may onnaise to moisten. Serve this mixture in a cantaloupe half.
