These tips to moth- ers who have trouble making their ' children eat foods they shouldeat,! are so clever and interesting, that I .II want to pass them along to my wo- men reads—adding a recipe that I tun sure your children x411 approve of. "The way in WiLioh food is served does seem to have a great deal to do with one's attitude toward it. Many a child will attack a meal with zest when the servings are small, but dillydally over it when they are large—perhaps because the sight of the !_larger amounts make eatng it ail seem difficult, The arrangement of food on tine plate too seems to have something 10 do with its attractiveness to eihildreo asp well av to adults, One leer -year -0,1a who usually looked upon the mach tallied of epiruiclt with great disdavor accepted it with a cliudIste one day when it was our. rouuCad by a ring of mashed Po - tutees, PlacingUhe t1Uffeeert foods on the plate so Wait they do net riot, into each other make them more appeal- ing to some children, Any adult who (1lalilc,est to have ,hie food all mixed up can understand the six-year•old who ai1waya wanted her beans in a eepara:te dish so that her potatoes wbud" not get ai 'teeny." 'Color also seems to have much to de with the attractivenese of food. With n little thought it is easy to plan steals so that not only is there some color with each meal, but so that colors which harmonize are served together, Ted, at five, Was a splendid eater. Usually all he asked Was 'more' food. HIs* family was alit the more mystified when DOW and then he objected vigorous - by to a meal, When pressed for the reason, he would only say, "It's cloudy." No one could figure out what a `cloudy' meal could be until one day it dawned on his mother that the objection came always when by some chance the plate of food was devoid of color. And so she tried out to see if her guess was right. Sure enough, when Ted was confronted with ,potatoes and onions and cauliflower together theer came the mystifying objection even though. he liked eachof the foods. And. thereafter there was no more 'cloudy' meals: for Ted. One three-year-old always greets beets with 'pretty„ pretty, pretty,' and eats anything, even eggs. for which she has little liking, when they are on, the pante with the rprebty' beets. The form Inc which food is serv- ed, too, is a lector in its attractive- ness for children. A three-year-old boy who had to struggle to get milk down from a glass, welcomed it when made into rennet -custards, perhaps because it was •easier to eat with a, spoon than to manage a geese, perhaps because he was tir- ed of always having it in liquid farm. One day when the rennet- custard ennetcustard was made in a fluted glass with a topping of stewed apricots, lie proclaimed gleefully, "It's a panty, it's a party,'! One child who usuaq'ly turned away from scrambled) eggs took them without protest when they <SNAPSIIOT CLJIL TRICK PICTURES—I Above: Realistic, but a fake, easy with any camera- inset, left, shows how to fake a scooter "wreck:' Just use concealed pegs or props, pose subject as desired.

In 1900 the total value did not exceed $3,250,000, while in 19'38 it had increased to more than $55,000,000 or six and one-half times es much, The POInci,pal commmdities• used in the canudng industry are fish, fruits and vegetables, milk and meats. The canning industry forms an important link. to other inebustrves, notably the tin can in- dustry, the box indatetry and the paper and printing iuclustries. Then toe, the development of the canned toilets trade has tended' to effect a great ohange in the relation of foods to seasons.
