School Safety
Important Topic
For Children
Approximately 40 million
students will be going off to
I school this month, and Miss
j Lucile Higginboitham, head of
i the Cooperative Extension Ser
vice health department, hopes
i one lesson they have already
| learned is “to stop, look, and
listen before crossing streets
and roads.”
The University of Georgia
, staff member pointed out that
many of these boys and girls
will be attending school for the
first time and certainly will be
excited. She said it is the
parents’ responsibility to see
that they learn important safe
ty practices.
Miss Higginbotham continu
ed that children who ride bi
cycles to and from school
should be tested to be sure they
know and practice all the safe
rules of riding on streets and
roads.
She said local safety and
police officials likely will have
a checklist of what children
should know about bicycle
safety. She added that bikes
should also be inspected per-
iodically to be sure they are in
good condition.
Pointing out that children
should be taught to observe
and obey all traffic regulations,
the health specialist stated that
| parents also will want to set a
good example by observing and
obeying all traffic rules and
regulations themselves.
“It is important to remember
to drive slowly near schools
and where children are play
ing or walking," Miss Higgin
botham said. “Many children
may do the unexpected. Don’t
forget to be cautious when you
see a ball bouncing between
parked cars, because a child is
likely to be close behind it.”

Have you enjoyed the “field
fresh” and "tree ripened”
vegetables and fruits this sum
mer? There has been an abund
ant supply. I know you have
processed some for later use.
But even if you processed an
excellent product, the quality
can be ruined by improper
storage.
All canned foods should be
stored in a dark, dry, cool
place. Light will leach out the
color of canned foods. This
gives an unappetizing dish.
Glass containers need to be
stored in a dark place. If you
do not have a dark place, glass
jars can easily be stored in
cardboard boxes.
High storage temperatures
tend to impair the color, flavor
and nutritive value as well as
the texture. Storing canned
foods at a high temperature

I breaks down the cells and
i causes a soft product. You can
i notice sediment in the container
1 caused from “flaking off" pf
’ the product. To keep the ori
• ginal quality, find a dark, dry,
■ cool place to store all canned
; foods.
Where is the place to store
1 canned foods? If the home is
air conditioned, you have no
problem. Usually a basement
or cellar is ideal for storing
’ canned foods provided there is
J no dampness. A well ventilated
’ pantry can also be used. If you
- must depend on the kitchen
cabinets, use the lower shelves.
Practically all canned foods
1 should be used within twelve
’ months. The natural chemical
1 changes are usually noticeable
within a year. The cooler the
: storage space, the longer the
■ canned food will retain its
> freshly cooked color and flavor.
I To keep the quality of frozen
’ foods, you must store these
properly in the home. Just
keeping a package cold and
hard does not insure quality.
Whether you freeze the product
in the home or buy commerci
ally frozen foods, you need
adequate refrigeration storage.
All frozen foods should be
stored at zero degrees F. if they
are held the recommended
storage time. For this reason
you need a food freezer or a
refrigerator-freezetr combina
tion. The freezing -compartment
of a regulai - refrigerator may
be used to store frozen foods
for short periods.
Thermometers for food freez
ers are available. It is wise to
put one in the food freezer and
check the temperature regular
ly- Quality losses in frozen
foods are commonly caused by
chemical and physical change*
that result from fluctuating
temperatures. Most vegetables
stored at zero degrees F. will
not show quality loss for
twelve months. If stored at
twenty degrees F., quality lost
occurs in three weeks.
