The League of Nations Sccitty in Canada, states the booklet referred to, is "a nonâ€"governmental asâ€" sociation of Canadian individuals and corporate groups which takes its name from the League of Nations but has no official connection with it." The booklet states further that the present situation in the world and in Canada "calls not only for positive govâ€" ernmental leadership, but for a treâ€" mendous effort in public education, the promotion of public discussion and the distribution of information.

For average strength use two level measuring tablespoons of ground cofâ€" fee to each half pint measure of water. 3. If hot water is used, heat fresh, cold water in a clean container just to the boiling point. Water that is reâ€" heated or kept hot for a long time exâ€" tracts less flavour because it has lost much of the free air that is present in fresh water. _ Be sure, then, to follow the rules for making good coffee. There are many kinds of coffeeâ€"makers which are good. For special devices follow the manuâ€" facturer‘s directions. The following rules hold for all types of equipment. 1. The utensil must be thoroughly clean, i.e., free from traces of old cofâ€" fee, soap, soda or other cleaners and foreign substances such as other foods, particularly fats of any kind. It is best to wash the coffee equipment right after it is used, in clear, hot water, cleaning all parts with a brush reâ€" served for that purpose. Scald and drain well and allow to dry in fresh air and sunlight if possible. A pot used avery day and cared for in this way needs no other cleaning. However, for equipment that is not used regularly or not always properly cleaned, an o¢â€" casional boiling of soda water in it will help to keevn it sweet and free of rancid coffee oils. Then thoroughly wash out the soda water, boil some clear water in the pot, wash again, rinse, drain and (By Barbara B. â€"Brooks) From morning club refreshments to midnight suppers, from beach parties to ski roundâ€"ups, or at any meal of the day or night, no severage is so uniâ€" versally popular as coffee. It is the alâ€" most perfect answer to the quest for something hot and refreshing, suitable in any menu, that some people do not drink itâ€"not because they do not like coffee, but because they find caffeine overâ€"stimulating. These perâ€" sons who are sensitive to caffeine disâ€" cover sooner or later that they really do not have to give up coffee. They can have real coffee, made caffeineâ€" frge by a patented process which preâ€" serves ang develops the fine flavour and aroma of high grade coffees.

She finds it an important part of any meal ang at least half the anâ€" swer to the old question, "What shall I serve‘"" for parties. The greatest care should be taken in preparing caffeineâ€"free coffge, not because it is more difficult to make than any other coffee, but because many persons are more critical of a caffeineâ€"free coffee. They are less apt to let it pass when carelessly made beâ€" cause they find it hard to believe it is as good as ordinary coffee. The Society is now engaged in preâ€" paring for a drive to extend the founâ€" dations of the Society in order that it may undertake the new tasks which it new believes should be taken and the extension and consolidation of the preâ€" sent programme.
