Hellan is with the Seattle-Tacoma Shipyards. WOTE—From time to time, in this space, there will appear an article which we hope will be of interest to our fellow Americans. This is number thirteen of a series. | SCHENLEY INTERNATIONAL CORP., NEW YORK Leaven Did anyone ever call you a “yeast Now, wait a minute— please don’t become perturbed or con- cerned, but that’s exactly what you are, and the fellow who calls you that, | is one himself. In fact, we are all, actually, yeast carriers. Tiny yeast cells are in our hair, on our hands, on | our clothes—in the air all around us —and they don’t harm us. The ever-present little fellows are | alwaysready to go to work to change convertible sugar into alcohol any- where—even in an uncovered glass of jelly or preserves on your paniry shelf if you don’t watch out. Yeast is really a microscopic plant. You can’t see a single cell with the naked eye, and there are many varie- ties, many of them actually serving useful purposes. In the distilling industry, a special variety of yeast is used in the making of whiskey. It differs from the type used in making bread, or beer, or wine. And each distiller has his own pet culture which he guards jealously. Busy little fellows these microscopic | cells. They’re often called “busy bees” in the distillery. Like the clock, they work 24 hours a day—and | ! they’ve got a steady job. But, these many varieties of yeast that float around in the air, these “free riders,” must be kept out of the grain mash so that they won’tinterfere with the pure culture yeast cells that the distiller uses. So every precaution ig taken. If you ever visit one of Schenley’s distilleries back in the states, ask them to explain to you how they build up their yeast requirements from one c;:; microscopic cell under sterile litions, so that they can maintain | a pureculture. You will also beshown how all the pipes (the plumbing) are sterilized after each operation with live steam; how even the atmosphere | in the fermenting rooms is tested for bacteria count. You see, while man has very little to do with the actual processes of fermentation and distillation, he can and does exercise control over these natural processes. And, speaking of control, while dis- cussing matters pertaining towhiskey, Columbia’s| by a smooth-talk-| agent and an 1mpovcrish-‘ News Flash=== We have just received a large shipment of MAZDA LAMPS Standard Sizes Alaska Electric Light and Power Company | these are excellent days for controlling | our luxury appetites.

The whiskey you are { able to buy today wasmade way back | ‘ in peacetime, When these stocks of | aged whiskies are gone, there won’t be any more. But there is enough to last—if used in moderation. So, please “control” the amount | you buy, and make what you do buy linger longer.
