Triplett PHONE AMherst 44311 ii About Your Home By RUTH CURRENT State Home Demonatration Agent SHOES—#ELBCTlON AND F1T riNG*-Tbe i^-tors who hive giv >n time and thought to the study >( feet five a word of warning n the ones who don't now have tiling and mal-shapvucd feet, es pecially to younger women and (iris. A recent fashion magazine says that as a reliable guide to the pro portions of the Individual foot, many stores rely on a foot tneasure because no two feet are Identical. Indeed, even, the right and left loot show variations la each Indi vidual. Not only width and length ire measured, but much more Im portant, the length from heel to ball joint. Both feet are measured to take into account the slight dif ference In length between right and left foot. The well-trained shoe man knows how to judge from these measurements, the slxe and type of shoe for beat appear ance and comfort. He knows that the wiliest part of the shoe must come at the ball joint. Shoes should fit snugly at the heel. Shoes should allow sufficient freedom of movement Of toes to avoid compressing the feet. Short fitting and narrow fitting cause pressure and result in callouses, corns and bunions. Guard against this! With feet varying so widely in different Individuals, standardiza tion of lasts is neither possible nor desirable. Shoe buying is one of the con sumer's important items of spend ing because health attitudes and happiness are Involved. We are certainly at the height t>f the soup season. The soup kettle, in most American homes has given way to the can of bought soup. Although there are many fine canned soups, it Is hard to beat a great big bowl of "home made" vegetable soup. Besides, if you want to save money and at the same time, serve tastier meals preparing old-fash ioned soup* is one way to do this. If you are interested in saving money on your food budget, you can have soup one* a —yjr»f— meat stock. Add to it the tones from chicken or any fowl,' chop bones, roast bones and other meat bones. Also, any water from cook ing vegetables. Cook this mixture down until it Is rich and flavorful. It can be used as a base, not only for soups but stews and cooking vegetables. This stock pot should be boiled up once a day. In the'old days great grandmother kept i stock pot going on the back of the stove 111 the time It la possible to make an ex cellent stock with 2 pounds of thin meat with bone. Add. a beef bone and for extra flavor a veal or beef knuckle. The knuckle ia filled wMh gelatin and adds both texture and flavor. Thare are eadleaa varieties of soup. Some are perfectly served before a meal. Some are cold, thin ar thick. A favorite for this season It the "all-in-one" soup. This soup ia made with vegetables and good (Uw meat. It Is thick and nourishing and needs only bread, salad and • deseert to ac company it W be a luncheon fit for a kinf or say "hard-to-pleaae" husband W. £ Spring rait* hive I dew look. The Jacket* am abort — Juat as they ware during the tell and win ter.

This new Interest in belts ha* brought on a new crop of norel belts well worth mention'ng—the gold chain necklace-bejt and the wrap-around belt Try adding one of theae to your old suit to give it a pick-up. « 1 11 Necklines are coming in for a lot of attention. A good many necklines, on dresses and suits are opened up and filled with pearls, gold chain* or crystal beads. Spring and summer dresses sport touchos at chiffon for all kind* of fanciful effects. Shoes are more (Minted than ever. Purses are small and neat looking. The ever-popular big satchel is made quite aleek-look ing. Pink, as alwaya for spring, la aa Important color. TtiLs may be bo cause there ia a shade of pink that 1* becoming to everybody. The jacket dress i* a good In vestment for the budget-minded lady. TURKEY RATES IN OUR DIET ANY TIME—Turkey meat, onco strictly a holiday dish, 1a now an all-season food. Turkey is good and it's good for us. It is both glamorous and delicious. It 1* highest in protein of all meats, and along with young roaat chick en, lowest in fats. It is also very rich in niacin and riboflavin, two of the Important B vitamins which are so vital to human health and well-being. These facts were re cently established by new and Im portant meat studies by Cornell University. TO ACCOMPANY MOST ANY MEAT DISH—It'a a good Idea to have a supply of cranbenies for relish, jelly or whatever you like. Now is the time to tuck away a good rapply for u*e during thoae months when fresh cranberries are not available. And, of courae, the freezer Is the perfect place to store them. The U. S. Department of Agriculture atatea that frozen whole cranberrlea, stored In the freexer for a year, made sauce with all the flavor, color and jelly strength of sauce from fresh ber ries. ' • ' WHY NOT TRY THIS?—If you like to grease cake pans and then dust them with flour before add mg the cake batter, here's a quick trick If yon are baking chocolate of Devil's Food Cake far dinner, substitute cocoa tor tleur when duatlm the paM to prevent any white atreaka on the rich, brown cruet. i « . 50th Wedding Date Observed Mr. and Mrs. Maaton Trivette of Rominger N.
