Eggers, Auctioneer Appalachian Highlands of West ern North Carolina still live by skills and handicrafts that have all but disappeared from the face of the earth, and enjoy ancierit amusements such as ballad singing, folk dancing, and play ing the "dulclmore." Illustrating the account are 14 photographs, including some of craftsmen at Bull Creek, contes tants at the Mountain Dance and Folk Festival at Asheville, square dancing at Bent Creek ranch, the Campbell Folk School, and the Mount Pleasant Baptist Church. The article comments on al most every factor in mountain life and culture. Of the house which a mountain man builds for his family, it says: "It is wind and weather proof. And there is not only visual beauty but also tactile beauty in the square walls." On the weaving practiced by the women, it says: "Of all the arts and crafts in the United States, the Weaving of Southern Highlanders is the closest to the native and original culture, the purest, th? most satisfying to the eye and spirit" On the versatility of the crafts men, it comments: "The list cf things that the mountain people produce is almost a catalogue oi the useful skills of man. They make four-poster beds, and candles out of bayberries, ex quisite sterling-silver jewelry and goose-feather fans. They fashion dolls and lamps, mats and pewterware, scarfs and trays, and countless delightful things out of carved wood." State College Hints For Homemakera To make the flavor of canned citrus juice more like that of fresh juice many housewives have learned the simple device of pouring the chilled juice back and forth from one glass to another just before serving. This puts back into the juice the air which was removed during vacuum canning. Labels on some cans of citrus juice now carry this suggestion. But scientists caution that adding air this way should never ' be done in advance but always , just before serving and with well chilled juice. Otherwise, the added air will have time to af fect the C in the juice by oxida tion and this destroys some of its important nutritive value and its fine flavor as well. Because oxidation goes' slower in the cold and also because cold juice absorbs air more readily, the scientists advise always having jthe juice chilled before pouring it back and forth. Air is removed from citrus juice in commercial canning so that as the juice stands in the can, its vitamin C value and flavor will not be damaged by oxidation.
