Games Help
Children
On Trips
New York - Many forces
have joined strength and in
genuity to make traveling
with children a pleasure to
day. It is the rare parent who
cannot find pleasure in taking
children on trips, short or
long, if preliminary prepara
tions utilize the information
and advice available on keep
ing children trip-happy.'
Restaurant owners the
length and breadth of Amer
ica provide special meals for
children at economy prices
Many restaurant chains have
gone to the expense of print
ing appealingly decorated
children's menus. Many rail
roads have followed suit.
Often, parents are amazed to
see children drink milk from
decorated cups after refusing
to drink milk at home. Poor
eaters will love artistically
served vegetables after" refus
plainer versions back home.
After innumerable requests
from parents, game experts
Selchow and Righter tackled
the problem of how to travel
with children and pique their
interest while keeping them
from getting restless. The gist
of their findings is that par
ents should travel with a va
riety of games-games for the
entire family; stimulating
travel, .games about places
they may visit en route; and
a special group for very lit
tle children.
A classic family game is
parcheesi, popular for 92
years. There's scrabble, and
scrabble for juniors (quite
new), especially good for in
clement weather that keeps
families hotel or motel bound.
New Game
A brand-new game is "pea
nuts", with moves that pro
vide - chances for' hilarous
laughter by the whole family.
"Meet tha Presidents" is
ideal for a family visiting the
national capitol. The game has
a giant spinner with 128 ques
tions about American presi
dents (a chance for kids to
stump the grownups!). Play
is on a full 'color map board
of tha U.S.A.
A game which will intrique
dad and - mother as well as
children is "Dead Pan". This
is a real test of wits.
For the small children there
is a brand-new game called
"Three Little Pigs", based on
the old fable. There's a gim
mick which permits the chil
dren to scream "puff-puff"
during play, an ideal way to
let off steam when restless.
McDonald's farm game is per
fect when traveling through
rural areas.
List Endless
The list of games is seem
ingly endless. Selchow and
Righter offer a simple test
parents can apply to help se
lection: pick games that are
a happy balance between
skill and chance and watch
for advice, usually on the cov
er, for what age groups the
games are intended.
Roadside restaurants and
railroads have made travel
with infants a pleasure by
providing special baby rooms.
Infants may be fed and tend
ed in clean, attractive sur
roundings while mother takes
a refresher and relaxes.
And clothing manufacturers
seem to have moved in con
cert to make travel delight
to children; they have design
ed comfortable clothes in drip-
dry fabrics that require a min
imum of care.
Right along with the rest of
travel-conscious America, are
the hotel and motel owners.
For a very small charge they
will provide folding cots to
put in parents' rooms. This
makes for economy and peace
of mind, for parents can thus
have the children near them.

Marion hotel, Salem, with
election and installation of
officers Saturday, June 27.

was installing officer. Mrs.

Holiday Food
In Good Supply
By HENRY J. BECHTOLD
New York-DPD-Housewives
stocking up on food for. the
Fourth of July week end will
find many "good values" at
the local store for both indoor
and outdoor meals.
Salad items are in particu
larly good supply at reason
able prices for those people
attempting to beat the -heat.
"Good buys" include lettuce,
endive, escarola, kale, cab
bage, cucumbers, onions, rad
ishes and tomatoes.
Other values in vegetables
include asparagus, .squash,
peas, collards and swiss chard.
Red Meats-beef, pork and
lamb are in good supply and
the prices are unchanged to
slightly higher than a week
ago. Broiler prices are up
slightly in plentiful supply
and considered very good
buys. Turkey also continues
a popular budget item.
Specials ' m various sec
tions of the country include
porterhouse and sirloin steaks,
smoked hams, chuqk roast,
and legs of veal and lamb.
To counteract the hot
weather we have ice cream
which usually reaches its pro
duction peak in July. A great
er proportion of milk produc
tion is expected to go into ice
cream this year and ice cream
consumption is expected to
increase from an average 18
pounds to 18.3 pounds per
person.
Egg prices have been going
up the past couple of weeks in
the face of a slight letdown in
production but they still re
main economical buys com
pared with a year ago.
Peaches are pouring into
the markets and prices con
tinue to move lower. The
prices usually reach their sea
sonal low in late July, August
and September. Berries con
tinue in good supply.
. The Fishery Council re
ports plenty of fish around to
satisfy all tastes.

Bridal Bouquet
New York- (UPD -Careful
what flowers go into the
bridal bouquet. Tradition has
it that tulips mean infidelity
and yellow flowers mean
jealousy. For good luck, try
apple or quince blossoms and
ivy. Clematis is a love vine,
the rosebud a promise,
myrtle a lover's flower, and
laurel will bring peace.

Wear"
Magnets Used
For Earrings;
Cliches on Hats
New York - (UPD - No more
aching ears from clip and
screw-type earrings, thanks to
an Italian jewelry designer.
Massimo' Ambrosini of Milan
has devised lightweight ear
rings that are held to the ear
by magnetic attraction. One
parlt is worn behind, the oth
er in front of the ear. They
also can be worn as clips on
dresses. Styles mclude gilt
triangles with colored stones
and gilt hexagonal shapes in
shiny or dull finish.
Cliches are back in style-on
hats. A group of white sailor
hats with turned-down brims
are decorated with old say
ings . in color. One cliche is
"All hands on deck." Anoth
er: "Life is just a - - -." On
that hat, the cliche is complet
ed by a spray of cherries
springing from a felt appli
qued bowl.
Louise Suggs, golf champion-turned
designer, shows a
new collection which doubles
on the links and at home.. For
golf, tha dresses have bias
back inserts for free swinging,
brief sleeves split to the shoul
der for easy arm movement,
belt tabs that hold adjustable
suspender belts, roll-proof
waistbands and zipper fronts.
For at-home wear, they have
high-fashion detailing, match
ing sweaters, and come in tex
tured cottons and a variety of
colors.
The skinside can go out
side in a new line of play
clothes by St. Louis designers.
The outfits have tapestry
prints on one side, and re
verse to show plain colors.
The coordinates can be mixed
or matched.
So you took an umbrella to
the races, and the sun came
out? Next time, sit on it. A
men's' wear firm has an alumi
num shooting stick type
which can be used as a cane
and seat as well as a bumber
shoot. A new look to an old favo
rite-rhinestones on spectator
pumps. The stones for dressy
afternoon and early evening
wear. Strap and bow closures
also dress up the shoes.
-
It's possible to go from
swim to sleep in the same out-
fit-skm-diver pants. The pants
are knit tights, worn for
warmth .in the sea or as pa
jamas. Add a sheer skirt, and
the tights go to dinner and
at-home . evenings. A varia
tion is a one-piece dinner
pa jama with matching stole,
worn for dancing, too.

Wheat Consumption' Skids
Washington - (UPD - Today's
average American eats about
167 pounds of wheat a year,
about half as much as the 315
pounds consumed per person
half a century ago, reports the
U. S. Department of Agricul
ture.
The figure has been declin
ing steadily. In 1945, it stood
at 230 pounds.

Low Sugar Pectin
Used to Prepare
Fruit Shortcakes
Fresh fruit shortcaka which
will not result m a soaked
cake is possible through use
of a "low sugar" liquid pectin.
To .DreDare. wash fruit
thoroughly and hull and crush
berries or grind tree fruits.
Measure two cups crushed or
ground fruit and 1 cup of the
liquid pectin into kettle and
mix well.
Add two cups sugar and
blend mixture thoroughly to
dissolve sugar. Some tart
fruits, such as red raspberries
and loganberries, may be tart
enough to jell the fruit, but
other fruits will need lemon
juice. The amount of lemon
juice to add ranges from V
to vz cup, depending on the
kind of fruit.
' First, try adding Vx cup
lemon juice, mix well. If tex
ture and tartness is satisfac
tory, do not add more lemon
juice. If it is not firm enough,
add V cup more lemon juice,
but no fruit needs more than
z cup.
Fruit will jell immediately
when the proper amount of
lemon juice is added and it is
then ready for shortcake, or
will keep for weeks in the re
frigerator. It also can be
frozen in regular freezing con
tainers and'will retain its per
fect texture and fresh fruit
flavor when thawed.
The recipe may be doubled
or tripled with the same re
sults.

Iron With Care
Columbus -OJPD-The combi
nation fabrics of dacron with
rayon, cotton or wool all re
quire extra ironing care, says
Edna Akers, clothing special
ist at Ohio State university.
Although the fabrics look
and feel like wool, they
should be pressed with an
iron set at the rayon setting-
250 to 300 degrees. Pressure
on the fabric should be light,
and the iron should be in con
tact with the, fabric for the
shortest possible time.
Remember that the" fabric
should be pressed on the
wrong side. If it is necessary
to press on the right side, use
a dry press cloth.
