THE CLINTON CHRONICLE • .. TiMEsfer, fCDA ASKS 7-PAY EMERGENCY 'PANTRY' The modern homemaker of the atom age is returning to the prov ident ways of her grandmother, who laid aside ample stores to tide her family over times of blizzards, bad roads or crop failure. The danger today is the threat of attack and the silent and in visible peril of radioactive dust in rural districts downwind from cit ies blasted by the H-bomb. It has forced the Federal Civil De fense Administration to raise to seven days the recommended home emergency food supply. Families in the fallout zone might be forced to stay under cover for as much as a week. Life in a shelter or basement could be an isolation almost as complete as that of the lonely pioneer clearing, with no power, contaminated water systems, crippled communica tions, and radiation danger beyond the doorstep. _ “ TO TEST THE “shopabil- ity” of its emergency food list, FCDA went along with Mrs. Henry Lee. wife of a railroad switchman in Battle Creek, Mich., when she shopped for a seven-day emergency “pan try" for her family of three. Mrs. Lee ruled out those it ems on the list which she knew her husband and 10- month-old daughter, Deborah Ann wouldn’t eat, and marked down quantities based on her weekly shopping experience. * 'FCDA Photo) DOUBLE-CHECKING her seven-day emergency food supply for ase by ber family of three is Mrs. Henry Lee, of Battle Creek.

She did buy mayonnaise as a less perishable butter substitute. The mayonnaise and cans of food once opened need the added pro tection of aluminum foil or ad hesive cellophane wrap to pre vent spoilage or contamination, she felt. Aluminum foil was fin ally chosen because it could .also serve as an emergency cooking surface. Mrs. Lee also departed from the FCDA list by buying two small cans each of orange and tomato juice. THE BABY'S milk problem was solved by planning a can of evaporated milk for each day, plus a reserve can. ' Canned cookies and canned crackers were unavailable at her super-market. Two other necessities are not normally available at grocery stores. Ordinary candles can be bought at the dime store. And canned heat or simple camp stoves costing about $10 can be purchased at any sporting goods store.

And, to the conscientious mother, equally frightening is her child’s trust in her. It takes something more than love and good intentions to live up to the expectations of our children. We need a strength and wisdom and tenderness that do not come auto matically with the responsibility of parenthood. God provides, and the Church instills in our lives, the spirit ual gifts which our parenthood requires. We were meant to cultivate these qualities, for with every challenge God offers us adequate resources. And our children will grow as we grow in the Christian faith, for the most obvious truth in the world is that a child wants to be like his Mother and Dad. church FOR ALL Th.
