Are you one of the 30 million Americans who rushed out to beat inflation this spring with a garden hoe and a jar lid or freezer? If so, are you using the most up-to date methods of canning and freezing to insure quahty and safe foods? The old way of doing things, especially canning foods, is not always the best according to Mrs. Joan Lamberson, Extension Home Economist. Despite your grandmother’s success with preserving foods, research has proven that her methods and equipment were not the safest. Today we have information that can help you preserve foods safely and without the “hot or miss’ technique our an cestors were forced to use. To give you the most up-to date information available on food preservation, the York County Extension Service of Penn State University has scheduled the following meetings. Anyone is invited regardless of sex, race, color, or national origin. Please call the Ex tension Office in the Court House to register, 848-3301, Ext. 276.

Grellet would be unknown to the world today except for a few lines which made him immortal. The familiar lines, which have served as an inspiration to so many people, are these: “I shall pass through this world but once. Any good that I can do, or any kindness that I can show any human being, let me do it now and not defer it. For I shall not pass this way again.” LhncditerFarmirig,'Saturday, May 29,1976 — 47 Regional Ladies’ Day Out program slated Phyllis Gross, chairman for the women’s committee for York County Farmers’ Association, has announced plans for the Regional Ladies’ Day Out fra- Penn sylvania Farmers’ Association members July 13, at the Penn Ram Motor Inn, Mechanicsburg.

This year is especially exciting for the county smce our OSHA skit is on the program.” Reservations must be turned in to her by phone or mail by July 5, along with payment of the registration balance.
