Some Hints in Regard ‘to _ the Problems of Jars and _ Rubbers for Canning _ They Will Not Seal Properly. Canned Greens. Canned| Asparagus. Not So Scarce as Some Anticipated. Jars,‘ All Must be in Perfect Condition or : Lids and Ru Last week a practical canning proâ€" gram was discussed in this column. ‘The principles of canning in both the pressure cooker and the boiling water bath were outlined. Today, the probâ€" Jem of jars and rubbers deserves space. Fortunately, these are more plentiful than we expected. The housekeeper will, of course, use those which she has on hand when they are in good condiâ€" tion. She will test them to be sure that covers when made of metal are not bent, and when made of glass are not nicked. The tops of the jars themâ€" selves must be free from nicks. For selfâ€"sealing jars, she will buy new inâ€" ner lids, and make sure that she has enough outer covers and bands on hand. Coffee and mayonnaise jars of certain type can be put to use for canning if new inner seals are purchased. These will be available at grocery stores in the case of coffee jars. A large manufacâ€" turer of mayonnaise will sell inner lids direct to the housekeeper. To use cofâ€" fee jars, you must have on hand at least half a dozen of the metal covers which previously came with them. After jars have been processed and cooled, the outer covers may be removed and used Now about rubbers. Those available this year cannot be tested by stretching as was possible with preâ€"warâ€"time rubâ€" ber. For this reason, it is advised that jars should not be completely sealed, as pressure within the jars might make! them loosen. Screw covers should not. be too tight. Only one of the bales"on jars with glass covers should ne fastenâ€" ed. After the jars have been processed, sealing should be finished. _ _ The only vegetable which you will §pe likely to can early in the season is If you have old rubbers on hand and if after stretching, they come back to their original size, they may be used if you place the side which has a crease from previous use toward the jar. It may be a gocd idea to use two old rubâ€" bers. Of course, jars must be absolutely clean and must be hot when they are filled. They may be heated in the kettle prepared for the boiling water bath or in the uncovered pressure cookâ€" er. They need not be sterilized by boiling fifteen minutes, unless they are to be processed in the boiling water bath for a very short time. i . t xÂ¥ W (By Edith M.

Humphrey Mitchsl1, Minister of Labour, announces that he has issued the first Order under SHeclion 210 of National Selective Service Civilian Regulations, looking to the compulsory transfer of men in the age groups designated under Mobilization Regulations from nonâ€"essential to esâ€" sential work. The first Order covers men employed in <he following industries or establishâ€" ments: (1) taverns or liquor, wine and beer stores; (2) retail sale of canay, confectionery, tobacco, books, statianâ€" ery, news; (3) barber shops and beauty parlours; (4) retail and wholesale florâ€" ists; (5) service stations (i.e., gasolineâ€" filling stations) ; (6) retail sale of motor vehicles or accessories; and (7) retail sale of sporting goods or musical inâ€" struments. In addition, all men designated under Mobiliza:ion Regulations are covered by the Order if in any of the following ocâ€" cupations, regardless of whether the cecupation is ons in those industries listeds as covered or not: (1) waiter, taxiâ€"driver, elevator operator, hotel bell boy, domestic servant; (2) any occupaâ€" tion in or directly associated with enâ€" tertainment, including but not restrictâ€" ed to theatres, film agencies, motion 1 picture companies, clubs, bowling alleys, pool rooms; and (3) any occupation in or directly associated wi‘th dveing and "dry cleaning but not including laundâ€" ries; baths; guide service, shoe shinâ€" ing. Hon. Mr. Mitchell points out that the present refers specifically to every man engaged in these restricted employments, who was born in any year from 1917 to 1924 and who has reached age 19, regardless of whether married _or single; and to every man born from 1902 to 1916 who on July 15, 1940, was unmarried, divorced or judicially sepâ€" arated, or was then a widower without children, even if such a man has since ‘been married; and it also refers to a man who has become a widower since July 15, 1940, and has no children now living; as well as to men who since that date have been divorced or judicâ€" Jally separated. All men in the groups mentioned, regardless of their medical classifications, are required to report. "‘!brthepresentitisnotpmposedto The procedure under the Order is that it now becomes obligatory for every man in an age and marital class desigâ€" nated under Mobilization Regulalions, engaged in one of the industries or ocâ€" cupations ‘specified in the Minister‘s Order, to make applcation to the nearâ€" est Employment and Seleciive Service Office not later than May 19th. If there is no higher priority work available for the man, he will be given a special perâ€" mit to entitle him to continue on a temporary basis in his old employment. On the other hand, if it appears necesâ€" sary in the interest of the war effort that the men be moved to more essenâ€" tial employment, he wil be given a direction to some such employment. Each man who can call personally ai an Employment and Selective Service Office, must do so. A an so far reâ€" moved from an Office that he can not call, will be required to write the Oiâ€" fice and await further direction. l 1t seems that women of larger sizos ars entir®ly forgotten by stylis‘s and‘ beauty editors, salons and miliiners. !Bu: they definitely have thei: beauty | | problems and it was with great joy 1 learn>d of Primrose House making a specisal study of this important group.| Following ars pointers which resulted‘ from that study: | Offâ€"size can be concealed with cleverly designed clothes, _A lilttle white at throat, an ornameont on the slseve, a dark skirt with a gay colored top and devices detract from unalirac:iive figure proportions., The large woman is often afraid to use makeâ€"up, fearful it will atirac* a*â€" ‘ention to her siz> and perhaps to scsineo unlovely facial feature.

This do@3"hnot mean that such men are not expected to registecr by May 19th. Exâ€" servitemen where now engaged in tne specifi\d low pricrity industries must register, however, and they will be enâ€" couraged to accept employment at high priori‘:y work. Also, for the present 1t is not propoesed to require a married man, regardless of when he married, or a single person who is maintaining a dependent, to accept alternatijve emâ€" ployment which would involve a changs of residence. But married men must register with an employment office, if in a class designated under Mobilizaâ€" tion Regulations, and they may be reâ€" quired to accept alternative employmenti un the districs where they now live. Mceasures will be taken to ensure fair minimum earnings for those who are directed to alteornative work. For exâ€" ample, a single person will not be daiâ€" rected to employmen} in agriculture unâ€" less the prospective employer is preâ€" pared to pay at least $40.00 a month and board. In all cases, of course, if the current rate of wages for a job is above any minimum rates fixed, the employer will have to pay the going rate. Men wili not be directed to employâ€" ment where the vacancies arise out of an‘industrial dispute. The health and physical condition of a man will be taken into account at the time that a transfer is decided upon. As it is so necessary to secure the workers required by the agricultural inâ€" dustry, a good many of those directed to employment will be sent to Tarms, but transfers will not be restricted to that line of work. Some workers will be directed to other essential industries w,‘here their services are needed. Workers objecting to transfers will have a right to appeal to a Court of Reâ€" ferses, whose decision shall be final. Any workers who refuse or neglect to accept employment to which they are directed, and who are not supported in their contention by a Court of Referees, are guilty of an offence, and upon conâ€" viction are liable to penali‘ies, and also to compulsory labour service an Alâ€" ternative Service Work Camp, on tne same basis as conscientious objecitors. "The Order in regard to compulsory labour transfers," the â€"Minister of Laâ€" bour states, "imposes obligations both on employerss and on employees. After May 19th, it will be illegal for any emâ€" ployer in the industries or occupations covered by the CGrder, to retain in his employ any employee in a category desâ€" ignated under Mobilization Regulations, unless a speical permit in the prescribed form entitling the employer to retain the man‘s services, has been securec from a Selective Service Offcer. Aiso, of course, it will be illegal for men in the defined classes to remain in such emplosyment without the special permit. Definite checkâ€"ups will be made, in orâ€" der that penalties may ke applied aâ€" gainst any who commit infractions o" the Regulations." The Minister added that this firs} Order on compulsory labour transters will be followed by subsequent orders, dealing with other nonâ€"essential emâ€" ployments. *"The publicâ€"will realize, T am sure," the Minister continued, "that Beauty and ‘ mm by PATRICIA LINDSAY smmz Beauty Hints for Women of Larger Size New Canadian Groups Do Well in Victory Loan Drive the administrative features of compulâ€" sory labour transfers subject the Emâ€"«â€"â€" ployment and Selective Service Offices to a considerable strain. This has been true in all countries, where the system has been applied. Therefore, from the administrative veiwpoint it is necessary, that the transfers be made by stages,‘ rather than all at once. We expect: that this reâ€"adjustment within agriculâ€" ure and indusiry will go a long way to! assist where labour shortages now. threat2n vital production." The end of last. week saw gratifying reports from a number of New Canaâ€" dian groups in the Fourth Victory Loan campaign. Mr. Sol Shankman, assistâ€" ant organizer for Cochrane Unit, in charge of these various groups this week had a spezial word of appeciation for the good work being done. He pointed out that all these groups have obtained more than sixty per cent of thz:ir objective, with less than 60 per cent of the time gone. They are all still going strong, and he is confident they will all put the campaign wer over the top. The groups include the following :â€" Finnish group, headed by Mrs. T. Kallio. Ukrainian group, headed by Michael Karol. Chinese group, headed by Chas, Yuen and Mrs. Margaret Fong. Bled Mutual Benefit Society No. 3, Timmins, headed by Mr. Keserich. Slovenian Society, headed by.
