How sperstitioiis are you? The
average person has at least
several they acknowledge, whe¬
ther one realizes the fact or not
There are perhaps hundreds
or thousands of superstitious
ideas or “old wives’ tales” and
v.ith the birth of each, their
n a on was believed factual.
Heie are a few of interest and
which are practiced in everyday
life.
For instance, don’t open the
i mbrella while you are indoors.
I! was believed evil would come
to the person who did it. Who
b< lieves in evil spirits nowa¬
days?
Saying Gesundheit, or God
Bless You, when one sneezes is
.still frequently practiced in this
modern jet age. This idea began
when early man believed the
spirit or soul resided in one’s
head. Sneezing was believed to
expel man’s spirit unless a fel¬
low man asked God’s blessing
on it.
When you make a wish why
do you cross your fingers before
doing so? This idea comes from
the fact that the cross was the
sign of perfect unity and when
two lines crossed any wish was
held at the center of the lines
until it was granted.
Another superstition is practi
cod frequently in the summer
months during canning time. It
is believed if a woman is mens-
trating and she helps in any
way in the entire canning pro¬
cess, the fruits or vegetables in¬
volved woulld spoil. The origin
of this must have come from
some woman who slaved all day
canning something, only to
have it spoil later, and she had
to have a good reason for it.
Women, this is a good one to
still believe in, it will get you
out of a lot of work.

Looking for something new and different for dinner? Then try
these recipes, both new and easy to prepare. Easy on the pocket-
book, too, since the stew is made with tender chuck that’s less
costly, better tasting than stew meat. Russet potatoes, famous for
flavor, are cooked separately and delicately accented with herbs
or the Italian seasoning now available in all food stores. Wash¬
ington potato growers recommend their Russels for all your favor¬
ite dishes because the mineral-rich lava soil, together with sunny
days and cool nights in the state’s green mountain valleys, give
these all-purpose potatoes extra flavor and important nutritive
values.

Mrs. Lillian Steven, of Rt 2 be¬
lie- es you shouldn’t cut cut any
loth on Friday that you can’t
: inish on that same day. This is
good thing for women to be-
\! ■- e. If you have a big project,
on. can put it off till another
day.
There are numerous others.
Lie a red string around your
mgr r, least you forget; get out
r b d on the right side; a whis-
!e in the house invites the de-
vil; a little girl who whistles will
grew a beard; misfortune will
follow if a reporter whistles in
i ditorial rooms, or if miners
whistle while under ground.
Don’t walk under a ladder; Fri¬
day 13 is everybody unlucky
day; Watch for black cats cross
ings in front of you.
All in all, superstitions are not
for old-timers only. Maybe they
contribute to their longivity by
passing them down through the
years to members of the family;
but superstitions are as much a
part of family living as passing
on the name of your great-
great-great grandfather, who
was surely a hero in the civil
war.
