METRIC MEASUREMENTS FOR COOPERATIVE CANNING
OLYMPIC GAMES TO PROVIDE FOOD
The use of the meter and othe-
metric measurements In the Oly-
mpic tryouts throughout the Unit-
ed States and later in the Olym
pic games at Los Angeles July 30
to August 14 will attract wide at tention
to these simple decimal
unites As the only world standaui
system the metric weights and
measures are ideal for use in in-
ternational athletic competition
The meter toften called tii 1
' "world yard" i is about ten pe:
cent more than tthe old van'
Thus the 200 meters dash is abor
the same as the 220 yards the 40)
rcters is the 440 yards and the
300 meters represents the 880 yar i
run or half mile Instead of a mile
tun there will be the 1500 meters
run— short of the mile by about 100
meters The 3000 meters steeple-1
chase will be proportionately less
than two miles
Building on the public interest
developed in metric measurements
by the Olympic Games a move-
ment is under way to pres- legis-
lation in Congress for adoption of
these uniform decimal standards j
by the United States All Mvlltacd
peoples except the Americans audi
British have already adopted thr
metric units for everyday use and l
there is a strong movement in the
United States and the British com-
monwealths to secure the advar- j
tages of the woild standards'
Athletic competition is serving a
point p'o' lliei'1 utility
Summer days are the days to
lay by in store against the time
when there is no work
The Chamber of Commerce at
Pauls Valley has provided the can:
cookers and sealers as well as heat
and room for a community cannery
in which some thirty thousand
: cans of vegetables and fruits are
now being put up
1 Commodities are put up on the
: shares that is the grower brings
his product to the Chamber rooms
and is given back half the canned
product The other half is kept by
the Community Chest to be givi
as needed during the winter to the
unemployed and needy folks Pro
pie who have time to contribute to
the community chest donate their
time to do the work
This plan has been adopted with
some variations in a number of
other towns and cities Wilson
Ardmore and others
Some farm women's clubs are
canning their surplus for a com-
munity pantry from which to sup-
ply hot lunches to school children
during the winter
At Ardmore through cooperation
of the newspapers and picture
shows 900 fruit jars were obtained
in one day Admission to the pic-
ture show was an empty fruit jar

Household Hints
BY BETTY BARCLAY
"THESE DISHES ARE UNUSUAL" that touches the spot and peps one
up
When company comes serve un-
usual dishes— the kind that pro-
duces exclamations of surprise and
delights An excellent hint is tc
follow the examples of famous for-
eign chefs and season even soups
and meat dishes with a dash of
sugar— not to sweeten but enough
to bring out the flavor of the other
ingredients and blend them into a
delicious whole Try these recipes
as examples of "exotic" cookery:
Chicken Madrid
Cut frying chicken in quarters
and fry in olive oil with one-hall
cup finely chopped onion and raw
Irish potatoes cut in dice Cook
until the meat of the chicken is
white Add one-half teaspoon su-
gar one-half teaspoonful chopped
parsley one tablespoon chopped
green pepper and one-quarter cup
hot water Season with salt and
pepper to taste and cook very
gently until the chicken and po
tatoes are thoroughly done
Mintade
Chop and crush the leaves of a
a dozen sprigs of mint Mix with
one-half cup sugar and Juice ot
two lemons Let stand two hours
stirring occasionally Ad three-
quarters cup sugar one pint water
Juice of one orange Strain over
shaved ice Add two bottles ginger
ale Serve in tall glasses with thin
slices of lemon mint leaves and
cherries
When Enan Needed
Holland Beet Soup
1 pint strong beef stock
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon grated onion
2 tablespoons vinegar
3 beets
Salt and pepper
Add sugar vinegar salt and pep
per and grated onion to the stock
Boil together about ten minutes
Boil the beets in salted water Pee'
and put through a coarse strainer
About five minutes before serving
add beets to stock heat and serve
Too long cooking will spoil the
bright red color
CHILLED DESSERTS
Even the great institution of pit
sometimes has to fight to keep its
popularity in hot weather fm
heavy rich dessert during the
summer do not appeal as much a
they did when there were so few
alternatives Nowadays wc haiv
many other delicious desserts
to take the place of pie and cake
when need be desserts that aie
easily and inexpensively prepared
Here are recipes for two using
coffee for flavoring:

PEP COCKTAILS
By Anne Schuyler
A cocktail may be as harmless ns
a glass of water yet perfectly de
licious on a warm day Its fruit
juice supplies minerals and salts
Its sugar furnishes quick energy
to a weary body As a whole It Is
cool and refreshing— something
By Jed Johnson)
I could say a lot more about
what Congress failed to do rather
than dicuss what Congress actual
ly did I have received many letters
however within the past few days
asking me to state what legislation
was enacted by the 72nd Congress
that ended last week of special to
the people
Farmers are asking if any kind
of farm legislation was passed
Ex-service men have asked how
much legislation was enacted for
War veterans or their depenents
Bankers and business men are ask-
ing if any proposed legislation be-
came a law to give financial re
lief
No farm legislation was enacted
although many bills to aid agircul-
t'ire or to guarantee the cost of
production and some were favor-
ably reported bytommittee of both
Houses The three bills sponsored
by the Farmers Union Grange and
pther farm organizations also fail-
ed Only one measure affecting ex-
service men became a law A bill to
permit immediate- loans on Adjust-
ed Service Certificates without
waiting the two year period under
the Adjusted ' Compensation Act
passed during the closing hours of
Congress and has been signed by
the President The interest rate or
loans was reduced from 4 to 3Va
per cent The Widows Pension Bill
and other relief legislation failed
of passage
The Goldsborough Expansion Bill
that passed the House fajjted In the
Senate but the Glass Currency
Expansion measure passed both
Houses during the closing hours as
an amendment to the Home Loan
Loan Bank Bill and has the ap-
proval of the President Senator
Glass who is one of the world's
greatest authorities on finance In-
sists that this legislation will put
$900000000 into circulation and
thus raise commodity prices Of
course the big banks will get the
money but it is to be hoped that
some of it will dribble through to
help buslnesss conditions and
loosen up loans In Oklahoma
The Home Loan Bank Bill creat-
ing Federal Home Loan Banks has
been approved by the White House
This legislation should stimulate
the building of homes and Inci-
dents put many unemployed to
work
The Garner relief bill was defeat-
ed but Congress appropriated
$300000000 extra money to lend
the states to stimulate public Im-
provements In this bill Is an Item
of $1474000 for construction at
Fort Sill but no funds for this
purpose will be expended until the
financial condition of the treasury
will permit which means that it is
up to the President to spend the
money for this construction and it
is problematical if and when ac-
tual construction will ever begin
All in all the first session of the
72nd Congress was the most un-
satisfactory of any wlh which I
am personally familiar
HB sanitary enamel lined
cans In which many foods are
now sold have proved so at
tractive to the housewife that both
grocers and housewives sometimes
ask why all foods are not put up
in them The answer is simple
For a large proportion of all
canned foods this enamel lining ia
unnecessary Its sole object is to
preserve the color of the foods
and make tbe opened cans and
their contents more attractive to
tbe eye
Tin Can Clean
A tin can is made almost wholly
from two ot the cleanest of metals
steel and tin A tin can Is a sheet
of flue steel coated' with pure
"tin and sometimes lined with a
laoquer made ot the purest and
nost carefully selected gums and
s ':?(! at high heat This is sani
tary enamel lining
Beets and red fruits are put up
almost exclusively in sanitary
enamel line 1 cans in order to pre-
serve their attractive colors
Corn crabs lobster and shrimp
are also put in these cans A cer-
tain proportion of other products
such as lima beans broccoli Brus-
sels sprouts cabbage cauliflower
hominy onions peas pimlentos
sweet potatoes pumpkin squash
succotash apple butter cocoanut
Texas figs grapes clams cod fish
"Finnan Hadrtle" sardines cat-
sup cheese fruit butters grape-
fruit jams jellies molasses
olives orange juice' pickles squab
tomato juice tripe and some soups
are put up in them to avoid dis-
coloration of the container But
for many other foods the plain
can is all that is needed
