Labels essential to shopping
Next lime you shop for clothes,
read the labels carefully. Manufac
i turcrs are using more cotton and
jf linen in the garments they make.
; . And that could mean wrinkles.
There's a trade-off between care
J : and comfort and more of us seem
4 to be opting for comfort. A gar
ment that's one hundred percent
cotton may be more absorbent and
comfortable to wear. But it'll need
ironing to keep it looking nice.
A garment that's a hundred per
cent polyester won't need ironing,
but it probably won't feel so com
fortable.
Most sandwiches can be conve
niently prepared ahead and either
refrigerated or frozen. Here are a
few suggestions for successful
sandwich making:
Spread mixed-grain bread slices
with corn oil margarine to "seal"
them and prevent sogginess.
. Softened cream cheese, cheese
spread or peanut butter are other
spreads that seal the bread.
To freeze sandwiches, wrap
securely in heavy-duty plastic wrap
or plastic bags, freezer paper or
foil. Press the wrap to the bread
and seal tighdy. Label with con
tents and date.

Billboards, catchy
jingles and attractive ads
on TV and in magazines
tell the public that they
may look better, feel
better and perhaps, even
be more successful and
popular if they drink
caffeine-contelning bev

their sales are booming?
Children are particularly
susceptible to the "power
of suggestion" from theee

Is there really any harm
in drinking caffeine

determine if these drinks
are connected with
symptoms that many of
our youth experience,
such as insomnia,
increase in heert rate,
nervousness and irrita
bility.
Diet Center feels adults
should realize the effect
of caffeine drinks.
Children should be
encouraged to drink
wster, fruit juices and
natural lemon drinks
instead of soda pop,
which may be filled with
sugar, caffeine, chemi

Fall vegetables ready to plant
August is an excellent time to
plant your fall vegetables. This
week gardeners should plant leafy
greens such as kale, turnip and
mustard. The seed bed should be
well prepared and small seeds
