USDA researchers say that cooked food accounts for most cases of food poisoning in hot summer weather. And lfs food cooked in advance and not promp tly chilled or kept chilled that takes the heaviest toll. Though cooking destroys most bacteria, it . won't protect the food from contamination after cooking if the food isn't refrigterated. , It's the stewed chicken that stood all night on the kitchen table in its broth, or the stuffed eggs that were tucked down into the picnic basket for several hours, or the custard or custard filled cakes left standing at room temperature that may cause you I trouble. Miss Pritchard says that food prepared in quantity for commu nity picnics and .family night sup pers too frequently doesn't get proper refrigeration. If you're planning potato salad, fish or chicken salad as a part of your picnic menu, make sure that it is wtell chilled and kept cool until time to use. When pre paring these recipes in large quantity, place the food Into) smaller containers for refrigera tion. If a large bowl of salad is placed into the refrigerator, it! may not chill rapidly enough to prevent spoilage. "Better not" are good words to keep in mind if you're debating whether or not to save some of that chicken salad left-over from the picnic. If it's been standing out on the table several hours, spoilage may have occured ? spoiling that you can't always detect by sniffing or tasting. I LET'S I By: Graca & S?lma There has been quite a bit published the past few years relating to sensible conduct on the part of the citizenry in event of an atomic raid. One bit of information that seems highly encouraging at first blush is the fact that in the first second of the ex plosion 50 per cfent of all the radiation is released. Also, it seems that radiation does not linger; in fact, within two minutes of the explo sion the deadly rays are themselves dead. However, the one se cond after the explosion which represents half o! the bomb's radiation dose is an awfully short span of time. In one second a . person can hiccough, roll a natural, fall out of bed. or trip his mother-in-law. but finding cover in that same second might pose a problem. Authorities tell us to dive for the cover of a streetside curb or any little mound or contour in the earth. One second doesnt allow one to be se- 1 lective. In otter words, friends, hit the dirtl A sprinter once negotiat ed 100 yards in 9.3 seconds. That means this superbly conditioned athlete might expect to range 10 and three quarter yards in search of adequate cover, but for lij average citizens, handicap ped by high blood pressure, high heels and low speed, a modest yard or two is prob ably our limit. Lot's hope yon never have to face the problem .... hat it pays to be pre pared. When faced with the problem of selecting an appropriate gift, we are prepared to suggest some lovely floral arrange ments which are always apprecimea. won x you drop In at ALLEN'S FLO WER SHOP and allow as the privilege of showing yoti samples of our art work? <adv.)
