T'S a peach of a dish. You can
say this truthfully about many
peach combinations. There’s ham,
for instance. A lot of difference,
you'll say between a “ham” and
a “peach.” Well, let them mingle,
and you'll have something.
Whether you're enlisted on the
Kentucky or the Virginia side,
when it comes to hams—bake one,
basting it with canned peach
juices, crusting it with brown
sugar and dotting it with cloves.
During the last fifteen minutes
of baking add the halves of
canned peaches for garnish!
Here are other excellent peach
combinations.

Milk In Disguise
_ “Doctor,” began a worried moth-
er, “Betty is complaining again
about drinking milk. Does she re-
ally need so much?”
“Yes, she does,”
the doctor replied,
. “and that isn’t just
my opinion. We
know it is true from
countless scientific
experiments. The
findings have been
checked and tested
over and over again. Betty is
growing. She needs the minerals
of milk for her bones. She needs
the vitamins to keep her healthy
and growing. And we know that
most children need the full quart
to get their share.”
“I know you're right,” the moth-
er said, “I’ll keep after her.”
“No, don’t keep after her. That
may give her a real dislike for
milk. Try some disguise instead.
Let’s see now. There's ice cream
and junket; custards and pud-
dings; milk on berries; crackers
and milk, cereals; egg-nogg. I'm
sure you know of many other ways.
“How about cheese? Have you
tried that? And perhaps Betty
won’t notice the change if you offer
her a glass of cool milk in the mid-
dle of the morning and the after-
noon instead of at meals.”
“lI see what you mean, doctor.
Thanks, I'll try it.”
How can parents make swimming
safer? Dr. Ireland will discuss this

the southern or southwestern

unusugl species.
Catching the song of a rare bird,
says The Literary Digest, is a
gamble. At four o'clock in the
mcrning thy scientists are up, have
and two truck-loads of delicate
song of a bird at a distance of
1000 feet can be caught; at 400 to
500 feet sounds: are faithfully re-
produced.
The kird’s song is recorded in
straight lines, like a spectrum, at
right angles to the long way of the

their position is favogable, they

a rare specie which may be extinct

Tha recording “mike” has its
back to the source of the sound.

the distant sounds to a point. The

the number of lines to the inch,
the pitch; and the film travels
through -the camera at the con-

The “mike” disclosed the fact
that, though the bird’s song may
be of short duration, it contains
many notes. The winter wren’s
song, lasting a little more than
seven seconds, contains 113 notes;
but an experienced ornithologist,
listening by ear, could only detect
five separate rotzs.

tance, caring for his teeth, and
many other details. He must also
acquire a sense of property, and be
able to distinguish between his be~
longings and those of others. He
must learn to be obedient, to speak
the truth, to distinguish n
right and wrong; also to be polite,
. respectful and well-mannered.
Learning to Play
In addition, he must gai
control, learn to work an play
happily with his schoolmates, giv~
ing and taking, or winning and los
ing, without emotional disturbance.
He must begin to develop a sense
of responsibility, and gradually
learn that the way of life is
through ceaseless adaptation to an
ever-changing world.
There are a few general princi-
ples that have almost universal ap-
plication in this learning process.
The child is usually a slow pupil,
or if he is quick, his memory is not
dependable. Furthermore, he knows
nothing of how to study or even to
apply himself and to concentrate,
and he is quite incapable at first of
keeping to a’ definite plan or
schedule. For these reasons repe-
tition is a fundamental necessity.

Press Censorship
In Europe
When David Darrah, for seven
years the Chicago Tribune’s corre-
spondent in Italy, sent his June 14
despatch from Paris, he called at- |
tention indirectly to the wide.
spread press censorship in Europe,
The Literary Digest reports. ]
Mr. Darrah, with two Germans i
and an Austrian, was the fourth ’
correspondent to be expelled from
Italy since March. Two days pre-
viously the New York Z7imes had
printed on its front page the news |
that The Times had been forbidden !
entry into Italy, not for what its
correspondent, Arnolda Cortesi, had |
written but for an editorial pub-
lished in The Times quoting Stan-
ley Baldwin on Mussolini: “Mus-
solini has kept himself in power ;
longer than most people thought |
possible, but the earth always
trembles where he stands. Any
day a great public catastrophe or
a vast shaking off of Italian fetters
in order to be free might leave him ¢
helpless on the ground, a shorn
Samson.” .
Spread of Censorship
In Germany all pamphlets of
J. R. Rutherford, published by the
Watch Tower Bible & Tract society
of Brooklyn, issues of The Times
from June 2 to 5 inclusive, and *
The Manchester Guardian (previ-
ously banned in Italy) were in-
cluded in the twenty-one publica~
tions which newsdealers had to
surrender.
On information sent from Mos-
cow by Walter Duranty, the only
countries in Europe which have no
press censorship are Great Britain,
Norway, Sweden, Denmark, the
Netherlands, and Switzerland. An-
other analysis by Bruce Blevin,
of The New Republic, disclosed
that two-thirds of the world’s
population live under a rigid cen-
sorship and only one-ninth under
the degree of freedom existing -in
the United States and Great
Britain.
