Then we have realized that had a right 'to exercise that Divine love and to call God', Father, but He came to earth and died for us so that we might be free to accept sal- vation and have the privilege too. We ask ourselves. What is love any way? The dictionary tells us that love is fondness,- warm affer-, tion for, but the 'definition we have for ourselves is "Love is something within us which will compel us to go even to the very death to help those whom we love."

In spite of all that, there is one there is a God, who is Ruler over out- lives. urlives. It may be sickness has over- taken us; perhaps some one whom we dearly Ioved has been taken out of our lives; or it might be some. calamity has 'befallen us. At any rate all at once we have been made to realize that we are not our own Master. Then we come to ourselves. Oh, that we would just understand that belfore it is too late!

Better still, cook' vegetables with their skins on." These words of advice have been spoken by many food authorities. There is so Inde logic in such. advice, because it has been found that there is more food value next to the skin in moist vegetables. When the skin is left on during cooking, not only do you retain the precious mineral and vitamins di- rectly underneath, but the skin acts es a protective covering, holding in the food value of the rest of the vegetables. Among the early winter vegetables" this theory applies to potatoes, squash,• carrots, parsnips, and egg plant. So for food value ' economy we recommend potatoes • boiled or baked in their Jackets; squash, baked or 2. Blend 2 tbsps prepared mus- tard into 4 tbsps. butter.

Here's one taken early In 1900. IIID you ever stop to realize that L� your collection of negatives is really . a kind of personal history? Pilose old negatives—from the time you started using your first camera, right up to now—have kept for you the highspots . of your family life. Bat to many folks they have become, more like a' buried treasure, stuck away in a desk or bureau drawer and then forgotten. • That Is by no means the way it should :be—there's still a lot of fun to be had from those negatives. Dig them -out and give them a new lease on life. In these days when film its not always easy to get, new prints from your old negatives particularly recommend themselves as a means of photographic pleasure. If you haven't looked over your collection lately, you have a treat ahead of you. It's fuu to look over old letters, read old books. It's in- finitely more fun .to look over old pic- tures. There's -.the matter of change in dress fashions, for example. And hair arrangements. And hats.

Individual albums ' for each of the young folks, showing pictures of them arranged in order, from the very first snap- shot right up to now, would be price- less to you-and—later on—to them. If you keep your prints in an al- bum --and of course you do :you are pretty apt to: find that some of them are missing.
