Fun With Fodil "**'
From The Herat
By MILDRED HUSKINS
Guess you didn’t expect a
suggestion for something dif
ferent for your Labor Day pic
nie.
Well, picnics have gone
upscale. The routine sand
wiches, chicken salad, and
watermelon that have char
acterized summer picnics can
hardly be beat. However, with
summer waning and picnic
time rapidly coming to an
end, you might try something
different such as a seafood
salad or two. Maybe today's
catch could be tomorrow's
salad instead of the usual
tuna. Low calorie, too.
With their infinite variety
of flavors and textures, fish
and seafood offer special bo
nuses in excitement and
preparation for a real pace
setter picnic. Instead of pack
ing your hamper with "a loaf
of bread, a bottle of wine and
thou," try one of these recipes
developed by the National
Fish and Seafood Promotion
al Council.
Clam Antipasto Salad is a
new blend of potatoes, clams,
squash, carrots, olives, and
celery. You just marinate in
dressing the night before, then
at the picnic, line a plate with
greens, spoon on the salad
and serve. Grilled Catfish
Salad Shanghai Style blends
the flavors of grilled catfish
with fresh summer vegetables
and toasted sesame seeds.
The special dressing gives it
a distinctive Oriental flare.

THINNER LENSES
The high myope and the
high hyperope are always ask
ing for thinner, more
lightweight and cosmetically
appealing lenses. And now
there are several types of high
index lenses on the market.
Each is made of a different con
figuration of plastics, and each
has its own unique properties.
In discussion with the op
tometrist, you must decide
which high index lens is best
for your personal needs by con
sidering the following ques
tions:
• Will the lenses affect
peripheral or side vision?
• Are they impact-resistant
enough?
• Are they so soft that they
will scratch easily?
• Will they tint well?
• Will they take an anti
reflective coating evenly?
• Are the lenses affected by
heat or direct sunlight?
One you decide which of the
lenses suits your lifestyle
needs, you will enjoy the look
and comfort of the ones you
choose.
