"Crowning glory"" apparently is no longer a phrase to be. all^ plied exclusively to a woman's hair. Teen-age boys are now paying almost as much atten- tion to hair grooming as movie. stars, A recent survey of 600 Canadian high school students disclosed that 72,3 per cent of the boys and only 11.3 per cent of the girls use hair dressings. Furthermore, boys acquire hair grooming habits at an earlier age than do girls. Cream type dressings are the most popular with - both sexes, ;accounting for 79,7 per cent of all ,different kinds. However, among the girls who prefer a liquid dressing,, 50 per cent choose an aerosol type, which is a pysh-button dispenser-con- tainer unheard of in the cosmet- iefielci as recently as five years ago. Among -the -great variety of products packaged in aerosol 'Containers, ,liquid hair sprays now rank third 'in popularity, preceded only by insecticides and room ,deodorants.

Never a Peach Alongside the Old Pioneer post office the peach tree is in bloom now, its blossoms joining in the, harmony ' of spring that pavements and stone and' brick and girder can never quite erase from the busy market place. From a horticultural view- point this is a sad little tree, a worthless thing that long ago would have been rooted as a weed from many orchard. For though its blossoms are in mul- titudes, its springtime promise of fertility produces nothing more than a few wizened, bit- ter peaches and sometimes none at all. The little tree has struggled against odds all its life. It sprouted and grew from an idly , tossed peach pit; so it must have been, for no careful gar- dener would have placed it where it is. But in this season the little tree has a measure of ment. People Who can look at mountains where they live, they say, are generally happier than those whose eyes find only a flat hbrizon. So must it also be for those who can- look froni their office 'windows or pause in their bargain seeking to rest their eyes on a peach tree in bloom, FOR SALT, THE KING OF ALL STRAWBERRIES British.

Lives of all family members are changed in every home Where a serious accident occurs, There are no limits to the price -a family may pay for an acci- dent. Beyond the obvious costs, measured in dollars and cent; there are others which may be even more difficult to pay: and these hidden costs can never be covered by an insurance policy. It would be absurd to ask any normal parent what price they would take for a child's eyes, arm or leg. But that same child can be maimed for life by his parents' carelessness or in- difference to accident hazards, writes Rosemary Schaefer of the Home. Safety Education Committee of the American Home Economics Association. After the damage is done, no amount of money can, make the child just as he was before, will- ing as his parents may be, to spend everything they have to bring him back to his former self.

How did they avoid too much sympathy so that Mary would not feel that she was dif- ferent from her brothers and rister?

Home accidents may weigh more heavily for" a time on parents or older family mem- bers but, in the long run, chil- dren are likely to suffer most, especially if they are robbed of the kind of home life that they NO SAD SACK — Burlap's for chicken feed, traditionally.

The injured person may be- come the center of all family concern, causing jealously on the part, of the others_ The greatest tragedy 0• acci- dents is that most of them could have been prevented Authorities on accidents and their causes tell us that, acci- 'dents do not "just happen." Accidents are caused. Accidents kill more children under 14 years than any di- sease. Home, where children are forming life - long living habits, has most of the accidents. The homemaker would seem to bear the major share of res- ponsibility for teaching chil- dren safety. Her children must learn safety from her as she teaches them courtesy and man- - ners. " Home Hazards ' Do women give as much at- tention to ridding their homes of accident hazards as they do to fashions? Disorder, wrong equipment for the job, im- proper use of good equipment, hurry, carelessness, anxiety and fatigue — all the basic causes of accidents — would disappear for the most part, if they did. Disorder: It is the parents' responsibility to provide stor- age space for all materials and equipment used by the family. All family members are respon- sible for keeping all things in their places. Working or walk- ing in cluttered areas, stepping over objects, or striking ob- jects that are out of their ac- customed places, cause falls, burns and bruises, with painful and disabling injuries. Wrong Equipment: Hurry tempts mother to use too small a kettle. Food boils over and mother or child receives a burn. Father uses a knife , for a screw driver, or a chair for a make- shift ladder. Cuts "and falls re- sult. Such examples, set by careless parents, emphasize the need for practicing better home management. Wrong Use of Proper Equip- ment: Modern home equipment, designed for safety, makes it increasingly difficult to do a job 'the dangerous way. Round- ed corners on ranges and refri- gerators reduce the number of bad bumps on sharp edges. They also lessen the temptation to pile things dangerously near edges. Emotional Attitudes Anxiety and fatigue can cause accidents among family mem- bers. After a breakfast table argument, the harried house- wife may spill hot liquid on herself or absent mindedly leave a sharp instrument within reach of small groping hands. An upset father ,may have an accident that has far reaching implications. One well establish- ed farmer, after a, disturbing argument with his wife, was so preoccupied that he refueled his tractor with the motor running. 4n eXplosion 'seriously injured him. His son had to come home from college to help' run the farm. His daughter postponed effect the parents learned the importance of examples they were setting for their children. Their every action was watch- ed. The children were quick to point out every violation of a safety rule. If one of the young- est children imitated a danger- our parental practice, it was quickly recognized. All came to realize that carelessness by any one of them perilled, the lives and happiness of all. Each began to study and sug- "gest the safety way to do farm and home jobs. All were more alert to danger spots about the house and farm. As they work- ed, they, questioned them- selves, "Am I doing this the' safe way? How can I do this more safely?," This family learned that or- ganization and conferences are the keynote to a. successful sPlety program for any family. Soon this home and 'its sur- roundings changed from a place of danger to one of safety. By eliminating hazards and adopt- ing safety practices they all were more effective members of the family and community groups. They set examples for safe family and community. life. One of the biggest obstacles to family safety is that women are not taking an active enough part in home safety organiza- tions. This reluctance to partici- pate more actively in safety is surprising when we consider that the basic maternal instinct is thought to be the protective one. Women stand on street corners and sell tags for many organizations. They haven't been as aggressive for safety. In preparing youth for a hap- pier and healthier life, the homemaker should not only caution youili to be careful, she must teach them how to prac- tice safety and see that they live in a safe community.

Given the imposing name of "Freon" fluorinated hydrocar- bons in.,1931, it is as safe as its individual, elements are danger, ous. For, strangely enough, non- flammable, non-explosive and non-toxic "Freon" is produced by properIy combining explosive hydrogen, corrosive chlorine and unstable fluorine,. with:: carbon. Despite' its first production cost of about 00 a pound, it won quick acceptance. by, the new refrigeration indUstry`which was hampered by the risky agents then used in ice-making equipment. The result was a minor revolution food pro- cessing, Merchandising, eating habits and the gradual "disap- ' nearance of the none too effi4ent ice box and it's attendant nessnOne of the most remarkable characteristics, of "Freon': is that itS life expectancy is lim- ited only ,by the d-urability of the mechanical part's of the re- frigerator or .air-conditioner. For this,gas never years out. AnYone who has 'eiier won- dered how her refrigerator works should remember it is as simple as ..Anderstariding, that- when• a' liquid ,evaporates or changes from a liquid to a ins, it ab- sorbs, heat • from' its. surround- ings. That's what happens when you step out of a -swimming pool on 'a hot day. As the water evaporates from the surface of the skin, you cool off. In the refrigeration machine, this same phenomenon occurs inside closed pipes when the liquified refrigerant is released from' pressure and is allowed to evaporate or change into a gas. In the home refrigerator this takes place inside the small tubes surrounding the outer surface of the ice cube tray. There the refrigerant takes „on heat, by absorbing it through the metal tube, from the air and the food, To get rid of the heat, the gas is fed through a com- pressor to the back of the re- frigerator where air draws the heat out of the refrigerant and into the room. As the gas cools off, it returns again to its liquid, state and is ready to start its liquid-to-gas cycle all over again. "Freon" refrigerant turned aerosol propellent in 1941 to wage war against malaria-car-, tying mosquitoes in the Pacific. When a few civilians acquired their first bug bomb via war surplus supplies, it weighed a pound and was also too expen- sive to produce for everyday use. Several years later, however, someone' saw the possibilities of adapting a beer can as a ebn- tainer and the live-saving bug bomb was reduced in size and manufacturing costs and in creased in effiCieriey.

Responsible Families Cooperate What can be done to make a 'home the place where all mem- bers of the family can develop, I grow, enjoy protection, and make a valuable contribution to the community? The answer is family shared responsibility and cooperation. Safety education in the home has been vague on the positive side. Much safety education for children has been the kind that Willie Brown received. His mother let him go swimming, but she didn't teach him So swim. She merely said, "Don't drown!" Naturally Willie Brown did drown. Today, more parents realize the necessity of swimming instruction before they permit Willie to go swim- ming just as more parents real- ize the importance of building safety into' houses. Homemakers would profit by * knowing many of. the industrial safety education practices. In- dustry 'has analyzed jobs to see what can be done to eliminate hazards. They constantly check to see that all working equip- ment is in good order. They supervise workers to see that they work saZely. One farm family organized to eliminate hazards because an •engineer son became so critical of ' the many hazards he saw about his home, after he had ,be- come accustomed to safe indus- trial practices. The grade children were call- ed detectives and they went about discovering and report- ing unsafe work practices and hazards. Father and engineer son went over all working equipment to see that it was in good order and repaired it necessary. The father pointed out many things that each could do to eliminate hazards. Mother was appointed captain to check with family members to see that each was carrying out the family safety plan. As this safety plan went, into
