Where? Where were the hand-knotted rugs made? Unfortunately the scanner cut off the bottom of the page, so I'll never know what those 1929 listeners heard.
The next question--well, this isn't a question at all, but a "helpful hint" for mothers of school children. Fresh raw vegetables, in the school lunch pail. Ever try that?
"If you haven't tried it," suggests this contributor, "just eat some crisp raw vegetables with a sandwich....The raw vegetable adds zest and interest, and requires chewing, which is often neglected when eating only soft foods."
"Some of the possibilities in raw vegetables for the lunch pail are strips of crist, raw carrots, a few leaves or a section of cabbage, strips of winter radish, sections or slices of raw turnips....I shall have to try out this idea on Billy. If he likes raw cabbage, turnips, celery, and so forth, as well at school as he does in the kitchen, when I'm preparing dinner, all will be well"
....
Tomorrow: "The Problem of Sweets for Children." Program will include menu and two recipes.

I'm imagining what Billy would say today if you slipped a raw turnip or a morsel of cabbage into his lunch.
