Evaporated Milk Content Explained Evaporated milk is homog enized whole milk from which about 60 per cent of the water has been removed by heating under vacuum. Vitamin D is added to provide 400 Interna tional units per pint of evap orated milk. An International unit (abbreviated I.U.) is the measure of strength for vita min D. The milk is sealed in cans and sterilized. When di luted with an equal amount of water, it has about the same food value as fresh whole milk, according to dai ry industry spokesmen. 4 Popcorn remains dry and crisp and brown sugar is pro tected from lumping when stored in canisters with lids containing moisture-absorbing crystals. Veni- Vidi By MARGARET SCHULER Roma - Ways of life which seemed odd to me when I first came to Rome soon be came commonplace and na tural, so that I have to con centrate to remember just what is different from America. Here are a few more how ever. Italians do not chew gum. Mr. Wrigley's products are for sale at the so-called Amer ican bars, for sixteen cents a package. Around the corner, at any little shop for Italians, it can be bought for eight cents. Women do not smoke very much in cafes and restau rants, Italian women. Day Hotel The Albcrgo Diurno is a day hotel at the railroad sta tion. It offers the following services: Laundry, washed, ironed and returned in two hours. Baths, pedicures, man icures, shoe shines, clothes pressed (while you wait), massages, typwrlters, shops of all sorts, and rooms to rent for the day, or for two hc-urs. "Loro" is the word for "they" in Italian. Well, Loro have one or two little in explicables to health-minded Americans. Loro spit on the side walks, and Loro teach their fancy dogs bad side- walk manners. The Loro government apparently docs not mind noise, such as honks of ungodly and prolonged duration, squeals of tires, and cut-outs all night long. The last of the night clubbers leave for home between six and seven in the mornings. Stealing It is alleged that Romans do not consider it stealing if your head is turned ihe other way, and you do not see what is being taken. When after many years of travel ling, my purse was taken, and I reported it to the police, they said that if it was a pro fessional he would probably return what he could not use. Sure enoguh, two weeks later, came an envelope with my address book, and a few cards, and note book. They evidently could use the little leather cover of my book, be cause that was not returned Somehow, although I lost my glasses, quite a lot of money (for me, because I never car ry money in Rome if 1 can help it) my compact and lip stick, I was more Infuriated that any one would be grabby as to take a seven- year - old aligator over with a name on it, than all the rest. It was my only, and a good purse, alsol Guild Receives Gift of Lamb A retired couple recently donated a lamb to Providence guild, requesting that the pro ceeds from its sale be given to the building fund for the new Sacred Heart hospital.
