TRUMAN EXPLAINS . . . “Now this is how it works,” President
Harry Truman appears to be saying to Frederick J. Lawton, Director of
the Bureau of the Budget, as they look over a chart showing the allo
cation of the tax dollar. Chart represents the estimated figures for fiscal
year 1953.

Do young girls need to have “secrets”?
Answer: Yes, writes Dr. Helene
Deutsch in “The Psychology of
Women.” The typical girl of
twelve or thereabouts finds another
girl of her own age “with whom she
giggles and titters, with whom she
locks herself up in her room and to
whom she confides her ‘secrets.’ ”
These are not especially important
in themselves—what matters is that
they are things which grown-ups,
and especially her mother, don’t
know. The urge to have secrets is
an effort to get even for all that the
child feels was kept secret from
her — for instance, the fact that
mother was expecting a new baby
—as well as a step toward independ
ence.
Must “heart trouble” keep you
idle?
Answer: Probably not. According
to Dr. Theodore G. Klumpp of the
Office of Defense Mobilization, the
nation’s defense needs will require
the employment of a million and a
half more “handicapped” workers,
and many of these may be sufferers
from “heart disease” in one form
or another. To meet this demand,
the American Heart Association
has developed “work classification
units” in which you may* find out,
on the basis of medical diagnosis,
for what and how much work you
are fitted and where such work may
be found. If there is a heart associa
tion in your city, find out from it
bow-you can acquire a new interest
in life.
Can “preference tests” be
faked?
Answer: Yes, says psychologist
Orrin H. Cross of the University of
Alabama. These tests—which at
tempt to show the sort of person
you are and which are used by pro
spective employers—can be easily
faked by anyone who wants to do
so. The high and low scoring indi
viduals in a group of high school
students who had taken one of these
tests were told to repeat it and to
“fake” an interest in the opposite
direction from their real one, and a
similar experiment was made with
college students. The results show
that if an applicant knows what kind
of job he is being tested for, he can
easily fake his answers if he pleases.
KEEPING HEALTHY
Antabuse Helps Alcoholic Recover
By Or. James W. Barton
tutOST RESEARCH WORKERS on
alcoholism believe that the
method used by Alcoholics Anony
mous to cure the patient is. the best
method, because the alcoholic ad
mits his need of help and prays
daily for it. There are some alco
holics who will not admit this need
and stumble along as periodic drink
ers. It is in these cases that the
drug antabuse may be effective be
cause antabuse gives the alcoholic
chemical insurance against taking
that first drink—the drink that may
lead to a disastrous binge. Thus,
antabuse builds a chemical fence
around the alcoholic.
At a meeting held under the aus
pices of the New York medical
committee on alcoholism, the manu
facturers of antabuse in this coun
try reported that the drug has been
tested in more than 100 clinics in
the United States and Canada by
more than 800 qualified physicians
and with more than 5,000 patients.
“Using antabuse, 50 per cent of
these alcoholics have achieved per
manent abstinence; another 25 per
cent made basic improvement, the
condition necessary for rehabilita
tion.”
Antabuse compels the patient to
remain sober as long as he continues
to take the drug. The very fact that
the alcoholic takes the drug shows
that he wants to be cured. Since
he takes antabuse and thus re
mains sober, the'doctor has his
real chance to discuss the matter
with the patient and learn his prob
lems. “Excessive drinking is al
ways a symptom of some under
lying disturbance which may be
medical or social or emotional or,
more often, all three combined.”
Having stopped the drinking, it
can be learned why the patient
started to drink excessively in the
first place. “This can be deep
psychoanalysis, psycho or emotion
al treatment, group treatment, med
ical rehabilitation, and a firm con
tact with Alcoholics Anonymous.”
Antabuse is a small white tablet
taken by mouth.

MIND

DEEP-FREEZE PORK
B UY pork and pork products now,
and freeze ’em, for the lean
season to come. That’s the advice
of your favorite butcher. And that’s
the advice of Department of Agri
culture experts, with an eye to the
whole situation, present and future.
Do it now, while
the price of pork is
at a low level. Come
spring, and it will
hit the ceiling.
Come spring, and
because of your
winter foresight,
you can unwrap
some of those delicious chops for
the family, and laugh at the prices
you would have to pay, shopping
for the day.
The reason for the current plenty
is a peak hog slaughter during the
early winter months. To take a
sample week, hog receipts in a doz
en major markets amounted to
more than 560,000 head. That’s a
lot of pig — in fact, one of the
heaviest weeks’ markets since 1947.
The New Year ushered in sup
plies of frozen pork in cold storage
to the tune of 358 ^ million pounds
—and that’s about 66 million more
pounds than a year ago. And that
supply is going fast, so burry up,
buy it, freeze it, and have it on
hand for the inevitable shortages to
come in the spring and summer
months.

cakes, of course! These versatile
cakes, made thick or thin according
to your taste will go to any meal.
Make them plain for the morning
and serve with breakfast meats,
plenty of syrup.
Then, if you like
pancakes as a
main dish, add
eggs or meat to
the menu to
The coming shortages are all tied
up with the national corn crop,
half of which is fed to hogs. A short
crop, and farmers are forced to cut
back on the number of pigs they
plan to raise in the spring. Fore
casts are that farmers intend to
farrow 9 or 10 per cent fewer litters
than a year ago. So there won’t be
so many pigs going to market in
the summer and fall, as there were
a year ago.
A PRO JOB
Let the professional, that butcher
of yours, do the preliminary cutting
for you. Don’t just buy a side of
pork and stuff it in your freezer.
It’s not a job for an amateur butch
er. Once cut and chilled, the rest
of the job is a cinch.
Get the right wrapping materials
first, for improper wrapping of
frozen meat is a dead loss, in dry
ing, waste, and “freezer burn.”
Special freezer papers can be had
at your store, and are an invest
ment worth making. Such wrap
pings are moisture and vapor proof,
easy to handle, and hard to tear—
a perfect combination. Of them all,
aluminum foil is tops, and still
available most places.
Wrap and pull the paper tightly
to exclude all possibility of air, fold
and seal with acetate tape. Such
tape is immune to both dampness
and cold.
Separate your roasts, chops and
hams, jfvith layers of wax paper or
cellophane, and label each pack
age carefully. Don’t make it neces
sary to drag out that loin roast, and
expose it to possible thawing, in
order to get at the pork chops or
the picnic ham you want to use im
mediately. For remember, once a
piece of frozen meat is removed
from the freezer, and allowed even
a preliminary thaw, it has had its
day—it can never be refrozen.
Remember that your freezer is
not a safety deposit box, but rather
a bank, to be drawn on and sup
plemented, and its contents kept in
circulation.

Homes for Christ
Lesson for February 17, 1952
Or Foreman
W HAT is a Christian home? It is'
no solemn place, for “solemn”
is not another ord for “Chris
tian.” It is not an
“American” home,
because wMle
Christians can be
Americans, and
vice versa, the two
words do not mean
the same thing.
Sending off the
little ones to Sun
day school every
Sunday morning, or
even piling the
whole family into the car and going
to church 52 times a year, will not
quite do it. For church-going is
only one part, and the easiest part,
of being Christian. What about the
rest of the week?
* • •
Does Jesus Get
Beyond the Front Door?
■pHE home of Mary, Martha and
Lazarus, where Jesus often
visited, we can think of as in many
ways a Christian home. Jesus was
welcome there; he dropped in any
time, he felt at home.
Now Christ Is most at home
(as any one is) where people
are congenial, where the atti
tude to the things men live by-
work, play, love, worship—is
the same as his attitude.
Also in the Bethany home they lis
tened to Jesus. It is well to have
a Bible in the house; but that alone
will not make it Christian. Is* it
read? Do the children when grow-
ing up hear the words of Jesus from
the Gospels? Do they hear his
voice as often as they hear the voice
of Mr. Cassidy or the Lone Ranger?
• • *
How the Home Can Serve
T HERE are three ways in which
the home of today can serve
Christ. One is in connection with
the church. Except in rarest cases,
every Christian home should be an
actual part of some Christian
church. A church which has no co
operation from the homes in its
community will be a dying church.
The livest churches, on the
ether hand, are those where
homes and church do the best
team-work. To take only one
example: Does your home work
together with your church in
the recruiting of minlstepi?
Ministers have to come from
somewhere, and the best ministers
don’t all come from preachers’
homes by any means. How about
the boys in your home? If one of
them felt an urge to be a minister
or a missionary, would the rest of
you laugh him out of it?
Another way for the home to
serve Christ is in treatment of stran
gers. When strangers move into
vour community, or live there for
a short time as school teachers
sometimes do, is your home open to
them? Is your house a “home
away from home” for lonely people?
When you have a party, do you
invite always only those who can
invite you back, or do you (as
Jesus suggested) include people who
will probably never be able to re
pay you? A home that prides Itself
on being “exclusive” has forgotten
Jesus’ words—“I ~as a stranger,
and ye took me not in.”

Serving the Children
A Christian home, moreover, will
serve its own children in
Christ’s name. In it children will
hear about Christ, not as a past
figure in history but as a Living
One. Parents will teach them Chris
tian patterns of living.
This will not be merely some
thing they hear about in Sunday
school, it will be the pattern of
life in which they are trained from
day to day, beginning even before
they can remember. This home, if
11 serves its children as tt should,
will show them how to help Christ.
The children will know about the
church (“His body,” said Paul) and
what it is doing in his name around
the world. From their earliest
years they will be helpers in this
work. They will not grow up think
ing of “missions” in some vague
way, but they will know and be
thrilled by the great stogy which
that single word carries.
And the children In a Chris
tUn home will be helped by
Jesus far more than they help
him. Even at the beginning of
childhood they will learn to say
“Dear Jesus, help me,” when
the mean word or the angry aet
are just almost exploding. Even
as children they will learn
something of what in older
years will mean much more,
the “practice of His pres
ence.”
But ns one can learn from the
ignorant. And children wlH never
learn these things at home without
help. A home does not begin to be
Christian with the children, but
with the parents. Whatever good
the children learn, father and
mother must learn it first-
