While touring the bat
tlefield and seeing the wheat
fields, peach orchard, Little
Round Top and Devil’s Den it
was difficult to comprehend
the enormous loss of life that
took place here July 1-3,1863.
The two armies lost 51,000
men. In the National
Cemetary, row upon row of
markers for the unknown
dead are mute testimony to
the terrible loss of life.

The school band played for
a children’s picnic in the
park this spring and I was
reminded of the bands that
played for our Sunday School
picnics in the Lititz Springs
Park many years ago.
The music added so much
to the atmosphere of that
fresh strawberries, either in
your garden of at the store,
Miss Trudy Dougherty,
Extension Home Economist,
suggests you look for berries
that are solid red and full.
They should also look fresh
and glossy.
As soon as strawberries
get that dull, brownish look
you can tell they’re begin
ning to age and the flavor
won’t be what you expect.
Make sure the green cap
which helps hold in freshness
is still attached to the
berries.
Handle strawberries very
gently and be sure to use
them as soon as possible. For
storage, empty the berries
onto a tray so you can sort
out the spoiled ones.
Strawberries dacay rapidly
when they’re crowded
against each other.
If you don’t plan to use the
strawberries right away,
cover them loosely with wax
paper and store on the tray
in the refrigerator. Never
wash strawberries until
you’re ready to use them.
Then wash them quickly and
carefully in cold water. If
you put berries into a con
tainer of water, don’t let
them stand or much of the
flavor will be washed out.
Remove green caps after
berries have been washed.
Miss Dougherty recom
mends using strawberries in
the simplest ways possible to
enjoy their natural flavor.
Remember, too, that
strawberries are an ex
cellent source of vitamin C.
One cup of fresh
strawberries contains more
than the recommended daily
requirement of vitamin C for
an adult.

Ruth has a number of hobbies. She has a collection of 42
pairs of salt and pepper shakers, mostly souvenirs. She
enjoys staging. She sang soprano in the chorus for Crusade
Key 73 every night at Intercourse. She enjoys flowers. She
has some nice palms and many kinds of beautiful African
violets in her house and set out a lot of geranium slips this
spring. She also has annuals outside. She crewel em
broidered a picture lately and is embroidering a scarf now.
She made a quilt and a hooked rug. She knit a pair of mittens,
a pull-over sweater, a cap and slippers. She likes to read and
reads a lot to Steve.
As a family they do things together too. All except Steve
ride bicycles. They plan to take their lunch with them on their
bicycles this summer and have picnics. They try to go on auto
trips each year. They went to Tennessee twice, were in New
England and plan to go to the ocean this summer.
Mrs. Hershey says “I enjoy cooking. I like to try new
recipes.*’ She has a method of keeping sausage in the freezer
which might not be familiar to a lot of housewives. She puts it
in a plastic container and fills the container with water,
allowing room for freezing expansion. This prevents the
sausage from becoming rancid and permits-much longer
storage. Being a dairy farmer’s wife she uses a lot of milk
and dairy products and gives us some of those recipes plus
the recipe from her Egyptian guest:
