WIVES MUST STUDY
MALE PSYCHOLOGY * /
By RUTH MILLETT
“He never acted likfe a married
man,” Dorothy Arnold told the
judge when she asked for a di-
vorce from Joe Di Ma^|o. Mrs.
Di Maggio went on to explain
that her husband went out with
his men friends, leaving her
alone, an dthat wheb~heg|yas at
. home he acted like a clam:
i The judge granted the divorce
j t—but apparently |be didn’t set
Mrs. Di Maggio straight. If the
baseball player behaved as she
|:aid—he was acting very very
* much like a married man.
That, in fact, was his trouble.
Or, perhaps, since husbands are
like that, the real trouble is that;
American girls aren’t taught what
husbands are like, before they are
married.
They are encouraged by every-
thing, from the love stories to
the advertisements they read, to
think that if they just stay al-
luring .their husbands will not
only always love them, but stay
eternally in love. They expect hus-
bands to continue to exert them-*
selves to be charming companions.
They are led to believe that hub-
by will never hanker for any talk
but that of his wife. ** %
DIVORCE ISN'T ANSWER
And then the romatic young
man turns into a husband who
looks forward to his fishing trips
with the boys more eagerly than
to any vacation he takes with his
wife, and who wants little but
silence and (the..' evening jpaper
when he comies home at night.
The wife feels gypped. So much
so \ that often she thinks the - di-
vorce court is the answer to her
problem.
Divorce definitely isn’t a satis-
factory answer,^ fastf if she tries
marriage again—she’ll meet with
the same thing in time.
The only half-way answer is
the one grandmother used, to
carry her safely through such
disillusionment to reach her gol-
den wedding day. It is simply,
“Men are like that','. . ”

Many requests have come to my
desk for the directions to use in
canning pineapple. Here are the
instructions:
Selection
Sugar Loaf and Smooth Cay-
enne seem to be the best varieties
of pineapple for canning. The fruit
is ripe when it is orange colored
and the spines are readily pulled
out. If the fruit isj to be held over
a few days before canning wrap it
in thick paper and keep it in a
cool place (about 65 degrees to 70
degrees F.).
Preparation of Fruit
Wash the fruit first with a stiff
brush. Cut off the stem and twist
out top. Lay the pineapple on its
side on a cutting board. Cut Vi
inch slices. Peel each slice. Some
people prefer to can chunks rather
than slices. Remove core and eye.
Barely cover the core, eyes ano
other trimmings .with hot water
and simmer until pieces are clear.
Strain the juice and make a med-
ium syrup by dissolving Vss cup
sugar to 1 cup of juice.
Pack Raw and Steam
Pack jars full of raw fruit. Pour
the boiling syrup to within one
inch of the top of the jars of fruit
in a water bath with warm water
up to the neck of the jar. Cover
the water bath kettle as soon as
the water starts boiling and has
formed a good steam. Count time.
A slow even boil is better than a
vigorous boiling because the wa-
ter does not bubble into the con-
tainers. Steam pints for 5 minutes
and quarts 10 minutes.
Press Down and Seal
At the end of the steaming time
remove one cantainer at a time.
Press the fruit down so the juice
will cover the pieces, and the air
bubbles will escape.
Seal
Process in boiling water bath.
After jars have been sealed, they
should be put back in the water
bath and covered with boiling wa-
ter. Count time when water begins
boiling. Process 20 minutes.
Cool and Store
Remove from water bath. Cool.
Store in a cool, dry, dark place.
Light causes darkening of pineap-
ple canned in glass, and it de-
stroys Vitamin C.

County Agent
Five Carson county 4-H Club
boys were given recognition for
doing a good job of food produc-
tion in 1943, by the Amarillo Ar-
my Air Field. They were honor
guests of the field along with, 52
other boys and county agents
from five counties. surrouinding
Amarillo. This recognition was
accorded all boys who produced
enough food for themselves and
to feed a soldier.
A toyr of the entire field was
made and the boys had the privi-
lege of giving a B-lT^bomber

Lt. Nolan Sparks has written
his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Frank
Sparks, under date of May 20
from England, No word had been
received from him since April 25
when he left an air field in Ne-
braska for an overseas address.
He wrote that he ran across Lt.
Frank Kelly of Panhandle, son of
Mr.s Minnie Fulton, and had ah
enjoyable visit with him. The
Sparks letter was received Mon-
day.
Sgt. Frank McCafferty of the
Army Engineering Corps is in
New Guinea, accqrding to infor-
mation received by his wife, Mrs.
Joanne McCafferty.
Danger of extensive bums lies
not so much in the burns them-
selves as in the loss of body fluids
caused by them.

WHAT ABOUT LABOR
FOR HARVEST?
Everyone knows that the labor
situation is tight over the entire
country. A few transient laborers
are coming into the county this
week. Most, of them are being
placed with farmers as fast as
they get here, Seven laborers
were placed with farmers Satur-
day of last week.
Word has been received that
plenty of combines have shown up
for wheat harvest down about
Vernon and places down that way.
It looks at the present time that
there will very likely be sufficient
combines ’come into the county.
They will be referred to farmers
as fast as they come in, provided
that the farmers give information
to the county agent that they need
a combine to do custom harvest-
ing.
