1HE GLEANER GRAHAM, N. C-, AUG. 8. 1346 Cut Down Grain Food* If You Plan Reducing Do not attempt to reduce except under a physician'i guidance, if you are under 20 years of age, or If you are a young mother, or have organ ic complication*, such ai heart die ease, experts say. And do not think of reducing if you are not above average weight?say, at least 10 per cent.' Keep in mind three simple calo rie facts (1) all foods provide *ome calories, that is, units of fuel for bodily energy, (2) foods that pack the most calories are the starches, sweets, and fats, and (3) more calo ries than you use in work or play? that's where fat begins. For a reducing diet keyed to the times, eat almost no grain food. Every roll or thick slice of bread or ounce serving of cereal that you don't eat trims about 100 calories from the day's meals. By substi tuting fruits and custards for baked desserts, such as cake, pie, dough nut* or cookies, you can trim off another 100 to 300 calories, because so much sugar and fat go with the flour in these. Salute of 21 Guns A salute of 21 guns to the Presi dent of the United States was pre scribed by United States army and navy regulations in 1818, in accord ance with an act of congress dated February 7, 1819. Officials of the bureau of public relations of the war department explain that evi dently we Inherited this custom from England for British navy regu lations of 1772 prescribed a salute of 21 guns to the king or queen. The navy department traces the origin of the 21-gun international salute to early times when land batteries "out ? saluted" ships by offering three shots for each of a warship's seven, because gunpowder, then made largely of sodium nitrate, de teriorated at sea. As gunpowder improved in quality ships began re turning salutes gun-for-gun with land batteries. On August 18, 1879, the United States and England an nounced an agreement on the cus tom of returning salutes shot-for shot. Since England had developed a 21-gun salute the 21-gun system became the custom which other na tions soon adopted. It is an ancient superstition that gun salutes should be of an odd number. Animal Intelligence The intelligence of animals has for a long time been a controversial topic. Some people infer, from the humanlike actions and reactions of animals, that they have a high de gree of intelligence, pointing out that wild beasts set sentries when dan ger is imminent and the migration routes of birds appear to be charted systematically to avoid travel haz ards. Most authoritative writers on this subject maintain, however, that these and similar examples of so called Intelligence are the result of a fine instinct which guides animals where human beings would employ reasoning processes. They contend that an animal la incapable of fig uring out a conclusion after a con sideration of facts and thus is in capable of reasoning. Many deeds which have won animals great effec tion and applause have been accom plished as the result of their highly developed senses of sight, hearing, touch, taste and smell. Safe Transport Railroads handled 50,000,000 tons of high explosives for military pur poses as well as great quantities of poison gas during the recent World war without a person being killed. In one month alone in IMS, the quantity of military explosives han dled by the railroads exceeded the tonnage handled during the entire period of the First World war. From records available, It is apparent there was a total of approximately 50,000,000 tons of military explosives delivered as originating shipments to rail carriers during World War II. This tonnage was handled with no loss of life which can be charged directly to the transportation of such explosives. In addition, since 1938 approximately 3,800,000,000 pounds (1,800,000 tons) of commercial ex plosives have been handled with no loss of life due to their transporta tion. I ^ t 'Xhi?BU(# (ctvam^ vX3Sa& IcoumSrl In both medicine and dentistry, specialists receive a considerably larger avaraga tncoma than gen aral practitioners.

WADSWORTH WOOD THE kitchen?with Its visions, sounds and tempting odors?is outstanding in our memories of yes terday. No matter how pleasant our childhood im preuionf may have been, it is doubtful if many of uf would care to (o back to the kitchen of the past, with its in convsnienccs and drudgery. The kitchen is probably the moat used room In the house. Thousands of meals are prepared there, hungry chil dren troop In for snacks, and guests congregate there for late evening raids on the refrigerator. A univer sal aim seems to be to preserve the pleasant, livable charm of yester year In the modern kitchen, and at the same time to Incorporate many of the latest labor-saving conveni ences. The best results will follow care ful planning. This starts with your Income, the size of your family, and the amount of entertaining you plan to do. Consider than the size and location of the room, the lighting, the color scheme and the type and placing of the equipment. With proper forethought you can plan a time-and-e ft art-saving kitchen that is simple to clean; cheerful, enjoy able and one that truly fits your needs. Plastics and glass play a large part In today'a kitchen; the new materials are not only colorful, du rable and attractive, but also easy to keep spotless. Large windows and correct lighting help to make the kitchen a light and airy place. Besides central Illumination, it Is well to Include specific working lights at the sink and food mixing centers.

A picture window over the sink la a splendid idea, to fur nish a pleasant view as a distrac tion from tedious sink Jobs. Re member to arrange for a food mix ing center, convenient storage of foods and equipment, and ample working surfaces beside the sink and stove. The ranges offered today, both gaa and electric, embody many ex cellent new features. Various mod els provide for five to seven cook ing speeds, automatic time signals, signal lights to indicate which units are operating and at what speed, automatic clock control of temper atures, warming compartments, built-in griddles and waffle irons and glaM-front oven doors. If you axe annoyed by over-turned pots while cooking, you will appreciate the new type ranges with recessed burners that hold pots and pans securely. Practically every electric refrig erator on the market is now intro ducing de luxe haw models that combine normal freezing compart ments with special low temperature chests for frozen foods, as well as vastly greater capacity for meats and poultry. Greater ice-cube ca pacity and closer control of varying degrees of temperature to properly keep fruits, milk, etc., in one sec tion, while maintaining zero cold for fast-frozen foods, is the new idea toward which all manufacturers are striving. A separata deep-freeze chest will be demanded by many housewives who have become so food conscious during the trying months of shortages and rationing. One maker ia offering a combined link, electric dishwasher end gar bage disposal unit. All table refuse can be dumped into the sink, the waste matter sucked into a grinder and eliminated, thus doing away en tirely with the problem at garbage disposal. Another manufacturer features a dishwashing wit that can be adapted-ea a clothes washer in a minute's time. Built-in elec tric mixers, toasters, and even de hydratase are available to contrib ute to your greater convenience. Dual-purpose kitchens seem to be coming into favor. A breakfast bar in the kitchen is extremely popular, according to a nation-wide survey, and soon era may be seeing dining ldtahans and laundry-kitchens every where. The "Island-type" kitchen is high in public approval. It con sists of oos long unit built like a service bar and accessible from both sides.

Trgantry Dgpgrlmgml Heel Flies Although some dairymen have noted an attendant loss in milk pro duction. many farmers have failed to realize that the heel fly causes severe pain to the milk cow as well as considerable damage to the hide and meat. Every heel fly is capa ble of laying approximately 500 eggs on the hairs of the leg just above the hoof. Within two to six days, they hatch into small worms which penetrate the skin, causing some pain. As they increase in size during the following 10 months, they work their way to the back of an animal and, if not killed, develop into what farmers call "wolves," also known as ox marbles or grubs. Emerging through the skin, they drop to the ground and hatch into heel flies. Tests Indicate that cattle given the grub treatment, which la simple and inexpensive, gained from a fourth to a half pound more than untreated cattle during the first 00 days following treatment. Port Privately Developed Baltimore 1* largely a private en terprise port. Most of its large ocean facilities are railroad-owned and operated, although there are some other privately owned termi nals and some city-owned piers in the upper harbor. The legislature, many years ago, passed an enabling act which permitted the city, upon approval by the voters, to issue bonds, the proceeds of which would be used for harbor Improvement Installations, providing such im provements would be wholly self liquidating. This has resulted in the construction of only needed facili ties of absolute economic merit, one of which is now railroad-operated under long-term lease.

Use Hams Canning Jars If you lire in or near tha country, a package of native greens?pine, cedar, mistletoe, red berries, bitter sweat, holly, or what have you? along with two or three pint or half pint Jars of your bast home canned reliah or preserves or chicken will mean far more to tha friends who went to the big city to make good than anything you could buy for them. But here is a word of warn ing. Ba sura not to trespass on soma other person's property when sou go greens hunting (you might land in Jail). And ba sure that the canned offerings are in regular home canning Jars, otherwise you may not get credit for stirring good wishes into that wild blackberry Jam, spiced figs, citron preserves, quince Jelly, chutney, rummage pickle or whatever is your specialty. Wrap Jars Safely We have the word of Gladys Kim brough, Home Service Director for Bell Brothers Company, manufac turer of fruit Jars, that home canned products are good travelers when they can go in comfort, but are finicky when it comes to roughing ft. In fact, they demand well padded bertha. For Christmas packing, Hies Klmbrough suggests that each Jar be washed, polished, labeled, and snapped in Snick, shock-abeorb tng layers of cotton batting, then fitted snugly Into a bos.
