ITEM. Alert housewives and shop
pers in the Chicago area have
brought about a crackdown on
short weights at the family mar
ket. Most common method of short
weighing the customer with pre
packaged foodstuffs is to forget
to subtract the weight of the pack
aging material. Cardboard con
tainers, for instance, can weigh
from 2 to 4 ounces. In the Chicago
area it was estimated that 80 per
cent of the meat stores and coun
ters were dispensing meat that
was short-weighed, costing the
family managers of the area
$1^0.000 daily

ITEM. Automobile owners may
get a break this winter when they
go to buy their snow tires. Accord
ing to present predictions, snow
tires will sell from 10 to 20 per
cent less than last year New de
signs will also give motorists a
tire with better traction and less
road noise

living) inched up again according

“Yes, Virginia,
there is a
Santa Claus”
Sixty-two years ago, an eight-year-old girl wrote to
the New York Su i to ask quite simply: "Is there a Santa
Claus? 1 ' The newspaper's reply was, in part, as follows:
"Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus. He exists as
certainly as love and generosity and devotion exxist, and
you know that they abound and give your life its highest
beauty and joy. Alas; how dreary the world would be if
there were no Santa Clausl It would be as dreary as if
there were no Virginias. There would be no childlike faith
then, no poetry, no romance to make tolerable this exist
ence. We would have no enjoyment then, except in sight
and sound. The eternal light with which childhood fills the
world would be exxtinguished ... <
"Nobody sees Santa Claus, but that is no sign there
is no Santa Claus. The most real things in the world are
those that neither children or men can see . . .
"No Santa Claus? Thank God! He lives, and lives for
ever. A thousand years from now, Virginia, nay, ten times
ten thousand years from now, he will continue to make glad
the heart of childhood."

ALWAYS A COLOR CARTOON
From Mrs. Mike Licari, Fresno,
California: Enjoy reading the col
umn, about days gone by as I can
remember many of the incidents
noted from time to time. When I j
was a youngster, kerosene was ,
used as a fuel for stoves, which
were three-burners, with a small
container elevated on the side,
connected to the stove like a flag
pole. The kerosene was brought
home from the store in a can
which was painted a bright red. »
If you had no cork for the spout,
a raw potato served just as well.
Milk and butter were hung by
a rope in the well to keep them
cool in the summer.
Going to grammar school, the
style of the “Merry Widow” hat
was in vogue—and the side doors j
of the church were so narrow we
had to enter through the center
or middle door. The hat was
coarse straw with a large bow of
brown-blue-white plaid on the side.
At age sixteen, dresses were
worn full-length—to the shoe tops.
In later years, coal stoves used
for cooking and baking had a
reservoir for hot water atts^ed.
The job of ironing clothes v o
made easier. You could we
the front stove lid and quickly
heat the iron in a cast-iron basin.

ITEM. If the bride continues to
work ne' 'yweds sometimes make
the mistake of looking at pay-
checks as “mine” and “yours,”
instead of the more proper “ours.”
This can lead to trouble and to in
effective use of total family in
come. First decision newlyweds
should make is who will pay for
monthly bills and payments. If
one paycheck is put into separate
savings account, some goal should
be set for use of this second in
come. If no financial planning is
done, both incomes may be spent
with no thought of living on one
income should illness or a baby
cut off the second income or bring
about unexpected expenses.

ITEM: That small leak in a fau
cet is costing you more than a
few pennies on your monthly wa
ter bill. The constant flow of water
which occurs between the leaking
washer of the faucet and seat
against which the washer should
seal erodes away the surface of
the seat if the leaking faucet is
not repaired. This erosion ruins
a faucet, making it necessary to
replace entire faucet years sooner
than would be the case if proper
maintenance were given when re
quired.
• # *
ITEM: Family cooperation in
doing household tasks not only
helps parents, it gives children a
sense of responsibility. A family
“bulletin board” should contain
work schedule under headings
“daily,” “weekly,” “monthly” and
“seasonally,” listing person re
sponsible for doing each job. The
hard work that mother often faces
is little more th^n accumulation
of easy jobs that have been neg
lected by everyone.
'VTEED dessert for company?
1-^ it’s easy when you have a
freezer and can store vanilla ice
cream scooped in balls and rolled
in coconut, foil-wrapped in it.
Serve with caramel or chocolate
sauce.
Green beans take on old-fash
ioned flavor when they’re cooked
with bacon bits. Serve sprinkled
with Parmesan cheese.
Have some broiled fish left
over? Combine with extra seafood
like a small can of shrimp, can
ned mushrooms and cream of cel
ery soup thinned with V& cup of
cream. Heat in a shallow cas
serole with buttered bread crumb
topping.

NEW WORLD
erlN 1492 Columbus sailed the
**'ocean blue” and discovered
a new world beyond the western
wave. Though tradition tells us
that Leif Erickson visited Green
land and the northern shores of
our continent about 1000 A.D., and
though the old stone tower at New
port still stands as an enigma,
Columbus still ranks as the dis
coverer. ...
An Englishman who visited oar
country not so long ago, accord
ing to the story, was not greatly
impressed by the achievement of
Columbus. Landing at New York,
he soon took a train for New Or
leans. Accustomed to railway
■ travel in his “tight little isle.” he
was amazed at the time consumed
by the train in reaching New
Orleans
JUST A THOUGHT:
When we face the necessity
of admitting fault or correcting
some mistake, we should re
member that such things are
somewhat like a disease—the
longer we wail to take action,
the more difficult the task be*
comet.
In 1864, sugar sold for 56 cents
a pound in Little Rock, Ark.
Try blending some lime or
lemon concentrate into cream
cheese and serve this as a topping
for fruit salads or just as topping
for a fruit cup. The flavor’s most
refreshing.
Add leftover apricot or herry
jam to milk and serve as a w-.n-
derful treat with cooked uaiuicul.
When at last the train reached
New Orleans and he went into the
street, he found that a parade
was in progress. When told the
people were celebrating Colum
bus Day and was reminded that
Columbus had discovered Amer
ica, he repeated, “discovered
America,” and added, “ ’Ow
could he ’ave missed it?”
Yes. Columbus had a vaster
laud before him than he knew of
when he sailed to the west in
1492; he sailed for India, discov
ered a new world instead. Let us
ever be thankful unto God for the
! New World.
