Potato Gets Bad Reputation From Company It Keeps

It is not the apud but the com-pany It habitually keep^. that pro-duces inflated waistlines. Coming to the defense of one of Michigan's moat profitable crops, Mlaa Roberta Hershey. nutrition epeclallst for tha Michigan State dollege exten-elon aervice, says It Is the generous helpinga of gravy, butter, margar-ine tha t make the potato fattening.

' I f the pota to weighs 6 ounces, 4 ounces a re water. The other ounce contains some protein of good quality, starch, iron and other beneficial mineral* aome B vita-mins land vitamin C. From a nutri-tional s tandpoint a small serving of potatoes cooked with the skins on and consumed while hot, can replace a slice Of bread," Mias Hershey points out.

A medium sired potato provides about 100 calories—so does a thick slice of bread, a serving of green peas, aweet corn, or lima bcc.cis— or even a large apple. Potatoes are plentiful a n d we should use as many servings as possible to re-place bread. Miss Herahey believe*

Potatoes a r e bulky and perish-able and cannot easily be shipped overseas to relieve the famine. Some are being dehydrated to rs-duce space requirements and ship-ped, but cereal grains are much easier and quicker prepared for overseas sh ipment

Splice the spud scandal and eat potatoes—but remember It Is the company spuds keep that gives them a reputation of being fatten-l o * '

The election board In a south-ern town waa counting ballots when they came across a Republi-can ticket. Not finding anything wrong with it, they put it aside un-til they had time to decide what to do about i t After a while a se-cond Republican vote showed up.

Supreme Court Justice Carr, former Ingham County SpeclaT Grand Juror , asserted Saturday tha t "any claim or charge that Grand Jury funds were misused or misappropriated is unfounded. I have never found anything Irregu-lar in Mr. Steler's handUng of the funds."

Cheat The Moths

Australian Bride Arrives In Lowell

The moths may be hungry, wool clothing la still hard to find and expensive.

Spring never falls to bring up questions about storing winter woolens to prevent moth damage while the garments are "out of circulation." Prof. E. I. McDanlel. Michigan State college entomolo-gist, points out that the prevention Is easy, but the cure Is difficult— sometimes impossible.

Professor McDanlel oullnes safe storage of woolens as follows

1. Dry clean or wash woolens before storing. This removes all forms of moths present but doea not protoct against fu ture Infesta-tion.

2. Garmenta may also be hung In the sun for several hours, if the colors are sunfas t ; then all senms. pockets and other hiding places for motha should be brushed thor-oughly. Pressing garments before storage la alao a method of insur-ing the destruction of all moth l i fe

3. For storage, woolens should be f u t aw in a t runk, box. or pack-age that seals tightly. Into this container put about one-fourth pound paradlchlorobenzene (PDB) crystals or balla to every ten cubld feet of space. Then seal the con-tainer completely. Label It a s to contents so that woolens can be located easily When needed.

Lowell Showboat Is To Sal Again

New Features Guarantee Best Show Of All

The spirit of showboat is again being manifested on the streets of Lowell with the old songs being sung and whistled. The showboat is a community project which be-gan here 14 years ago as a cooper-ative enterprte'e with townspeople Joining together to make It a euc-cesa.

The Showboat chorus has held Its f irst rehearsal since the organi-zation meeting and eighty men and women were present. According to Orval Jessup, chorus director, the chorus will be larger than ever and a great deal of interest Is be-ing shown. Mr. Jessup expects that the chorua will number one hun-dred when fully organized and in-stead of the mass singing the well trained groupa will be singing parta. 'iiila will undoubtedly prove to be a valuable feature a* the chorus is used as background to the endmen's feature numbers.

C. H. RuncimAn, Showboat Ad-miral, diydoaed that the number ol persons who can be on the 194tf boat may be limited because of the shortage of gasoline drums which are used to float the 20 ton boat. Admiral Runciman worries that the adding of a greater number to the chorus would overload the boat. In addition to the chorus the boat carries a fifty-piece bend, fourteen piece orchestra, end-men, and the many actora and actresses that make up the professional part of the show. I I

The Showboat committee, which Is made up of four members each from the American Legion poet and the Lowell Board of Trade with Norman K. Borgerson aa cMairman are determined that the 1946 version will be a show long to be remembered. The four year rest has given plenty of opportuni-ty to gather new Ideas to make the show an outstanding enter-tainment.

This years Showboat will be held July 23 to 27. which is about two weeks earlier than other years due to the fact that the Ionia Free Fair has moved its dr.tes to the first week of August. There haa been a cooperative arrangement between the Ionia Fair and the Shov/boat that there would be a full week between the shows.

Opportunity For Michigan Dairymen Charles Figy, Director of the

State Department of Agriculture, urged today that a "production bf plenty" be the goal of the Michi-gan Dairy farmers. He pointed out that the live-s" of millions around the world are dependent upon Michigan's and America's green meadows and fields. Right now Sve must conserve and share food. We need more milk to supply the pre-sent demands for fluid milk and butter, cheese, ice cream, evapora-ted and powdered milk. The people of the world who enjoy adequate amounts of dairy foods grow stron-ger, remain more virll and live longer than people who taust do without. 1

The Directors urged greater care In the production, handling and cooling of our present supplies of milk so tha t none should spoil or be wasted. As an ekample, people in Michigan could consume in the form of butter alone Ian additional one billion pounds of milk.

June la Dairy Month, stated Mr. Figy, and the dairy industry at this time concentrates its attention on present plane for the future. Looking towards the fu tu re of dairying, we see a way to stabilize year-round farm Income, as milk la the largest single source of Mich-igan's agricultural Income. Once we get pa s t the period of uneven distribution that to besetting the dairy industry of today, the dairy far mere will face one of the bright-est horizons In dairy history.

•America haa eight million brides all s tar t ing homes Of their own. The birth ra te haa leaped from seventeen per thousand population to twenty-two per thousand. The demands for milk exist to an ex-tent impossible to conceive ao re-cently as five years ago. I

Plans a re under way for the dairy Industry to ktudy consumer demands, market condltiona and research, pointing to many new usea and more nutritive value of milk and milk products, In order to maintain the present high con-sumption.

If all t he Industry unites to sur-mount our present difficulties, the future for dairying In Michigan will be largely Just what we make It, concluded Mr. Figy.

At least 189 persons met violent deaths In the United States during the first three days of the long Memorial Day holiday, with the automobile playing Its usual grim role as the No. 1 killer. Motor car accidents caused at least 102 fatal-ities up to Saturday n i g h t -more than half the toll f rom all causes. At least 55 persons drowned and another 32 died from other causes, such as shootings, stabblnga and plane crashes.

Address

Dr. 1. J . Lubbers, president of Hope college, gave the conur-mce-ment 'addreas and at the outset It appeared to be rather realistic and somewhat discouraging. However, he finally became ln-plratlonal and gave the members of the class def-inite hope for the future. His theme waa "Hirtory's Battered Doors," he declared tha t the world Is In a rapid period of tranaltlon, that a new age la upon us. He as-serted t h a t we have lived under the misconception that the whits man Is supreme. The door has been open to the realization theA supre-macy of the white race was a myth of the past. He declared tha t oM door of economic Ideas had been broken open and that many chang-es are In the offing. The third door which h a s been battered down was said to be absolute national sover-nlty. Hb emphaalxed the fac t tha t nations are no longer In a position to act as a Judge of their own acts but that national deeds and ideas are now being tried before the court of all mankind.

Dr. Lubbere went on to state that the abiding Instltutlona In society such as the church, home and school wer* still powerful units and aa such would build a new world upon the ruins of Ore old. Graduatea were told to play their part and lead the way In the changes that are bound to come. The address wne thought-provok-Inp and caused a great deal of cotnment.
