The Cannety
Cunning of fish, clam*, meat e'c
haa baoome such an important part of
our work in the conservation of food
tbit w« hare found it, necessary to
have a plane where such work can bn
dona without interfering with the
work in the kitchen, §o we have
put up a imall buitdiug which
» i have named “the cannery.''
\\V bad lumbar on hand secured last
fall by clearing np the yard of the
B«dio Station. The only new mater
ia! purchased was the roofing and
nails. The building is 10 x 30 ft. and
ii furnished with cooker, table* and
(helve*.
Whin canning in to be done, the
fish, for instance, are taken to the
cannsry, cleaned, cut up, packed in
can* and cooked. It i* poesible to
cook .'10 2 qt. or 42 1 qt. jar* at a
time in the cooker.
The cannery make* it possible to
handle a large quantity of toed in a
comparatively short time, and with
?nuch lew labor and inconvenience
than when it bed to be done in the
kitchen, where 3fi loave* of bread
must be baked and three meals a day
be prepared regardles* of other
activities.
Alice Dehrowolski has been the
very efficient help of the kitchen ma
tron for six month*. Soon after be
coming 18 she accepted a position in
the home of Mr*. Simmon*, where
the rendered good service.
Mr*. Kelsey of Valdez spent a
mouth with her daughter Mr*. F.arl
Simmon* at the Radio Station. She
was accompanied by Mrs. Whee'er,
the wife of the popular Valdes jewel
er. Both ladies enjoyed their stay on
Wood Island in spite ef the bad
weather which prevented, i n large
measure, the little excursions they
would liked to have made about the
island.
The teacher told his clan that in
writing compositions they should not
attempt any flights of fancy, but on
ly what wsi in them.
Asa result of this advice, a boy
wrote the following composition:
I shall not attempt any flitisof fan
cy, but wright Just what is in me.
In me there is my atummiok, lungs,
liver, two apples, two cakes and my
dinner.
