This year, instead of the many small pic nics usually beld, with each school having its own picnic, the Nittany Valley Fellowship of Christian Edu- cation. which consists of the pastors and representatives from the sev- eral churches of the valley, are sponsoring one uniied picnic for the valley between Zion and Salona. It is hoped that this will become an annual event for the valley. Free use of the gwimmipg-pool and free boating will be granted to mem- bers of the picnic, according to park routine. Hecreatfonal games contests will be provided for the chil- dren and teen-age in the morning. ‘“Pik-up” mush ball games. and 3 league baseball game iwill be played during the day.

An x-ray examination revealed no broken bones After the flames had died down, it was noticed that the wooden beam which had supported the floor In the second story was broken instead of burned off. It was suggested that had given way under the weight of the machine and caused the floor to begin to collapse. Young Van Gorder, confused in the unexmect- ed catastrophe, was unable to give a complete account of just how the accident happened Mr. Bickel states that the the cattle and the tractor were In- ured. The insurance, included $2.- 500 on the barn Total damages were estimated at between $6,000 and $7.000. Work on a new structure will be begun as soon as the debris can be cleared from the foundatior which are still intact There are still six acres of oats on the farm, unharvested Mr. Bickel also hopes to salvage some of the grain that was in the fire.

Miss Edith Morton, home connomics extension specialist at the Pennsylvania State College, said this week She advises housewives 10 form the habit of taking several ar- ticles from the refrigerator at one time, closing the door as quickly as possible and latching it tightly Placing the refrigerator next to the kitchen stove or in a sunny piace on the porch is like exposing it to a continuous hot day, Miss Morton claims Bvery bowl, plate, paper sack, as well as every bit of food placed In the refrigerator should have a per- fectly good reason to be there. Many refrigerators do unnecessary cooling at unnecessary expense to the house hold “Cold air falls; warm air rises” Mise Mirton said. “This rule will help locate the frigid zone in the refrigerator. A thermometer set at different places will help locate the exact spot. Because milk, cream and raw meats are especially invit- ing to bacteria, store them in the coldest section of the refrigerator. “Overcrowding cuts off air cur- rents and reduces the efficiency of the refrigerator. Dishes are better than paper sacks for food storage ag they allow free passageway for the cooling alr currents. “Keep the refrigerator clean. avoid overcrowding, cool hot dishes before storing them. and the housewife will help to increase the efficiency of her refrigerator, whether it is ice, gas, kerosene or electricity.” During kitcher iba Pha BULLETIN ON BIRD LIFE For all who are interested in any manner in the species of birds found in Pennsylvania, their habits, use- fulness and care, we recommend a bulletin just issued by the Btate Came Commission.
