Music Training Held: A music training school was held for music leaders and interested personnel for the Home Exten sion Club members. Songs were nraeticed for our first Derform ance at the County Fair. Our! next practice will be August 16. We plan to meet at the Christian Church in Weeping Water at 8:30 P.M. Anyone intersted may come and join us for this sing. 2. Tour: The new home tour is planned for Tuesday, August 15 at 1 P. M. We will meet at the Herbert Oehlerking home near Elmwood. Everyone is in vited. 3. Tomatoes: The tomato is as American as "green corn", but it was not eaten as food in this country until long after it was commonly eaten in Europe. The Italians were the first Europeans to grow the tomato as a food in about 1550. Not long after that tomatoes were also being eaten in Spain, France and England. It was not until several years after the Declara tion of Independence that they were grown in this country. Early Americans planted the tomato as an ornamental plant. They were afraid to eat it, be cause they thought it contained a poison. Now, however, tom atoes are a major truck crop and hundreds of thousands of acres are used to produce our year round supply of fresh and canned tomatoes and tomato juice. Sunlight Affects Vitamin C Content of Tomatoes Sunlight is more important in determin ing the Vitamin C content of tomatoes than the variety, grow ing conditions, color of the fruit, or any other factor. The Vitamin C. content during a sunny season may be double that found in the same variety during a cloudy ceason. Tomatoes grown and ripened in the sun contain more vitamin C than those produced in the shade. ENJOY TRIP Mr. 2nd Mrs. Art Uhe and family visited at Meadow Grove, Nebraska, at the home of Mr. and Mrs. William Koenig. Mrs. Koenig is a cousin of Mr. Uhe.

Each year more than 32,000 persons are killed in home accidents and over half of all injuries happen in and about the home. These accidents can be class ified under several headings: 1. Falls and broken bones. Are the stairs at your home clear of toys and other articles? Are the stairways well lighted? Other accident hazards are small rugs that slip easily; porch and stair railings that are insecure; play apparatus that needs mending, and using insecure ladders. 2. Burns and scalds. Are small children protected from tubs and kettles of hot water? Are matches kept from little chil dren? Other hazards are lack of screens at fireplaces and rub bish not disposed of promptly. 3. Asphyxiation and suffoca tion. Are gas burners properly adjusted, and connections in tact? Other hazards are garage dors not open when starting an automobile; and bedding not carefully arranged against the possible smothering of the baby. 4. Electric shock. Are electri cal appliances in good condition and are worn and broken cords promptly discarded? 5. Cuts and infections. Are toys with sharp points and edges discarded and' are sharp-edged tools kept away from small chil dren? 6. Poisoning. Are medicines kept away from children?
