But when you give your family the raspberry in the form of jam, they won’t,mind at all. In fact, they will be so pleased that you will probably find you have not made enough to last through the win­ ter’season. Raspberries by themselves make delicious jam or for a change can be combined with black' currants. Both jams can be made by the mod­ ern, simple, short boil method, for which the recipes are given here. . Raspberry Jam 4 cups (2 lbs.) prepared fruit 6% cups (2% lbs.) sugar % bottle fruit pectin To prepare fruit, crush or grind about 2 quarts fully ripe berries. Measure sugar and prepared fruit into large kettle, mix well, and bring to a full rolling boil over hottest fire. Stir constantly before and while boiling. Boil hard 1 minute. Remove from the fire and stir in pectin. Then stir and skim by turns for just 5 minutes to cool slightly, to prevent floating fruit. Pour quickly. Paraffin and cover at once. Makes about. 10 glasses (6 fluid ounces each). Raspberry and Currant Jam 4% cups (2% lbs.) prepared fruit 7 cups (3 lbs.) sugar % bottle fruit pectin To prepare fruit, crush about 1% pounds fully ripe currants. Remove seeds and skins by sieving.

HEALTH ORGAN IZATIONS DO GOOD WORK Any suggestion that the work .of vol­ untary health organizations should be taken over by the government arises from a failure to understand the functions and value qf these various societies, so states an editorial in the current issue of the Health League of Canada’s magizine “Health”. . Private volunteer organizations give citizens an opportunity to participate in and undertsand movements of nat­ ional importance, the editorial writer claims. “Were any of them allow­ ed to die the result would be a slow­ ing up in the progress of the slowly growing movement towards national health, the progress of which means much to the development of civiliza­ tion itself.” Government support of voluntary health societies is .characteristic of Great Britain and Canada, continues tlhe editorial. “It is a demonstration of the fact that in Anglo-Saxon count­ ries we apreciate democratic princip­ les to the full.. Voluntary societies in themselves are small democracies,” The. editorial urges governments to continue the support of private organ­ izations, and advises governments to call upon these societies for aid when emergencies arise. • “It is .significant that in Germany voluntary societies seem to have dis­ appeared’’’, the editorial notes. “Rot­ ary Clubs and trade unions seem to have vanished itoo. Such organizations as the Home and- School Club with its opportunity for free expression of opinion would be viewed with abhor­ rence in Germany.” The editorial points out that fre­ quently it is a voluntary organization which - achieves progress in pioneer work which would be difficult of achievement by a governmental body. “Does he know much?” “Well, he not only knows that he doesn’t know very much, but he knows enough to keep others' from knowing it.” ' I Wife Preservers i ✓ Keep a jar or pitcher of sugar syrup in the refrigerator to use in making iced summer drinks. It eliminates waste and the difficulty of removing caked sugar , from the bottoms of glasses when dish­ washing. %•’ Wellington Mutual Fire Insurance Co. Established 1840.

Some are brown, some black and others are a brilliant blue-green in color. These beetles are carnivor­ ous, and as & general rule all carniv­ orous beetles and insects are bene­ ficial since they feed upon other in­ sects, many of which are enemies of man.

Beetles are repulsive to most peo­ ple, but it is a serious mistake to kill all beetles believing them to be harm­ ful or loathsome. Nature has a way Of balancing things an the out-door WOrld and people, by their crusades against bugs, sometimes unknowingly Upset the balance. For example, nat­ ure has provided gardeners with one beetle, a rather sinister looking fel­ low who should be hailed as a friend. Xhis friendly beetle is known as the ground beetle..
