Nowadays most tiionientakers have ' & - speaking ac- quaintance with vitamins and miner- als ; and know that throughout the year we need generous amounts of• the foods which can supply these es- sential substances. In olden times., the; 'rundown . condition from which many people suffered in the spring wad: actually' caused by the winter's faulty diet. ' 'Variety meats such as liver,. heart and sweetbreads are an excellent '•,••-• source of protein, minerals and Mita - mains A and B. Veal and calf liver have gained in table acceptance, but dew homemakers realize that beef and pork liver are actually richer in iron. ' Here aresome tips on preparing liver, ,whatever the kind," to make it tender, tasty and' nourishing. Skinning: Before cooking, slice skin from pork or mature beef liver. Tender young liver—calf, lamb or baby beef — usually does not need skipning. Scalding: Scalding improves flav-. our and helps "set" the juices. Cooking: Pork liver should be thoroughly cooked and will be more ,.delicate if braised with vegetables or made into a stew or loaf. Broil or saute young liver only long enough to take away the red colour.

C 3. Before storing fresh meat in a refrigerator, wipe it'with a clean cloth that nae been dieimpened in a solti.tion of baking soda and wa- ter.- This will remove dried clots and leave meat sweet and clean. 4Rub�am t ttat has come 'out of a brine or, chilling room with flak= Ong soda. 5 Wash lunch„paiis, cookie jars and bread boxes with'soapy water and rinse well with baking soda solu- r • tion. 6: Every refrigerator should be thoroughly eleaned by washing out with baking soda solution. 7. A package of bhking soda, should be near the stove in case of a fire in broiling pan . of frying pan • .which can be quickly •smothered • by the soda. 8, When food burns or sticks to• pots and pans, fill with water to cover, . the surface to be cleaned, add 'a tablespoon of soda and boil the solution. 9. Baking soda is a good detergent •but is not abrasive. It can- be us- ed to clean glass surfaces, win- dows, mirrors,' bath and basins. 10. Being mildly alkaline, baking soda ' , makes an excellent mouth wash and gargle. It also soothes the membranes of the mouth. • 11. To remove odors of onions, fish, etc., from the hands make a paste of baking soda and rub over hands, ' Let dry. for •.a few min- , utes, then .rinse. 12.

This is theAvery reason we should. all take special care to be courteous and considerate to our guests this summer. This year, of all years,., we must maintain, the reputation we have won for true hospitality. { YOU MAY ,NEVER.

GOVERNMENT TRAVEL BUREAU boparfmonf of Trdde a Commerce, Ottawa " • OTTAWA_ Canada's Position ' Refreshed after its two -weeks vaca- tion, Parliatnent is already well set- •tled into- t1 ,second lap of its cur- rent•• sessiern Much work -lies ahead of it. The _debate on the Citizenship Bill, the:National Flag Bill, the Bud- get, the various Departmental Esti- mates, to•, say nothing of a number of private bilis still to come up for dis- cussion, are expected to take consid- erable tinge. • , Most of this. business is of extreme importance, both economic and mor- ale' and when its impact .is felt -on the nation, Canade s position will be. increasingly im'prov'ed. Looking at the immediate scene,, it is possible to prove that conditions in Canada are as good if not better than 'anywhere .else in the world. For in- nce, with the recent 16 per cent t in taxes, Canadian taxes in ala Most all the'low'income brackets are lower than in England, Australia and New Zealand. The nation's per capita debt has not increased as much as in other countries, despite ' the heavy burden of the war. ' • ' . During the pest six years, Cana- dians have increased their total sav= ings from $3,000,000,000 to something over $10,000,000,000. .Add to this the fact that, certainly up to the mom- ent, the purchasing power of the Can- adian dollar has been 'better main- tained than in other countries. It is true that we do.•bave prob- lems. The need for houses is urgent,• despite the Governm'ent's various ac- tivities. Nevertheless, in 1945, under conditions of total 'war, Canada built 4.4,000 dwelling units, the largest; itn- 'nual figure in our .history. Neither the tufted States nor Australia has proportionately matched.. this achieve- ment. • ' ' Employment Picture ,Reconversion of industry problems are still with us, which is' not•• uned-; pected since • the • war is , hardly over more than eight months. The Govern- ment .plans for 'repatriation; , for re- habilitation, and for raconversfon, have so far worked out. fairly • well . As Minister of Reconstruction, Howe pointed out to the Torontq Can- adian 'Club recently, few Canadians. realize what 'changes in employment and what astonishing transfers of in- dividuals from job -to job 'and from. place •to place have • occurred since, last August. Here.are some dramatic, figures. , . From V -J Day to the end of March, discharges from the Armed Forces numbered 492,000 persons, while the decrease in the numbers' employed'. in non-agricultural • war industry, has been about 560,000 persona. - This means that more than 1,000,- 000 Canadians have given up their wartime 'occupations. since ,V -J Day. At that'time there- were 75,.000 un- placed job applications at federal 'em- ployment offices; at the end of March,' 1946, ,the 'figure had risen to 266,000, being .a net increase of 191,000: Ti other words, something' like 900,- 1' 00;r ; Canadians -- who lost their jobs with the coming .of victory have either found employment or have withdrawn from the labour market.
