Judge, "but What else could
happen to you?"
. "The man thought a moment
Isn t that enough?" he asked
finally.
Two Minntes to Take-Off for
Supper with Canned Giblet Gravy
?
What used to be ane of the most nerv? wracking experiences
for novice cooks (and sven some old timers) was that of making
gravy. The probfiBms were many: Keeping the flavor in, the
lumps out, and making sure there was enough to go around.
Canned giblet gravy has arrived (joining the sustaining mem
bers of the clan*? ?5klc ken, beef, and mushroom). Rich, flavor
ful, perfectly, smooth-every-time giblet gravy comes right from
the can, full of chopped gimlets. With all this work done for
the home maker, she's free to take off on dishes, which would
otherwise involve too much time.
This elegant thicken Supreme can be made in a wink. . .
just brown the "chicken breasts, add the gravy,' sage, and sdme
small whole white onions Cover, simmer, and serve. What
could be quicker? Sliced carrots and whipped potatoes are
perfect vegetable a<k*ompaniments.
CHICKEN SUPREME
2 whole chicken breasts, (about 1/8 teaspoon sage
1 1/2 pounds). splft 8 whole small white onions
2 tablespoons butter or mar- Chopped parsley
garine
1 can (10 1/2 ounce?) glblet gravy
In skillet, brown chicken in butter. Add gravy, sage, and
onions Cover; cook over low heat 45 minutes or until tender.
Stir now and tften. Garnish with parsley. Makes 4 servings.

Enlistees
Preferred
Enlisting is much better for
fOu and the Army. When you
snlist, you pick the job you
want. And because you know
yourself better than anyone else
does, it will probably be the
right job for you? the job you'll
do best, the job that will make
you most useful to the Army
and make the Army most useful
to you.
Before you enlist, you can
choose tUat job from over 300
skills the Army offers. (Most
of these skills will be valuable
to you latpr in life.) And, If
you qualify, you can be sure
of getting the training you want.
That isn't the only advantage
you get from enlisting, either.
There are many more, too many
to tell you about here. But
see SSGT E. D. Jameson, your
friendly Army Recruiter, at
the Louisburg Armory on Wed
nesdays. Ask any questions you
want? without obligation on your
part, of course.

34-22-34 Or Fifty-Four, Forty Or Fight
by Clint Fuller
What's in a number? What
makes a given number fearful,
fateful or fortunate? Certainly
very little fault can be found
In such numbers as 34-22-34
when used In their proper pro
spective. And who remembers
Just exactly what "Twenty
three, Skldoo" meant in the
twenties, when everybody was
saying it?
44 Fifty-fovir forty or fight"
was the cry in the presidential
elections of 1844. The Demo
cratic Convention that year de
manded that the United States
reoccupy Oregon up to 54 de
grees 40' on the map, and It
seemed .almost certain that the
U. S. would go to war shortly
with Britain because of It.
In Rome the s.econd day of
Ihe month was believed sacred
to Pluto, and was, therefore,
ominous, according to re
searchers at Faclt-Odhner,
Inc., makers of calculators and
adding machines. Twins, con
sidered lucky by some so
cieties, were considered a bad
sign by the ancient Romans.
Modern use of numbers takes
on a more unitarian air, such
as the lnfemous, "We'll be
back after this pause for 60
seconds" and "Two for the
price of one."
The perfect number to the
ancient Greeks was the number
three. This had something tp
do with the combination of the
first masculine number, one
with the first feminine number,
two, and was considered to be
the perfect, union, or so It says
here.
The square of three, nine,"
Is also considered lucky. The
Tuetons believed In nine healing
herbs. There are nine muses?
nine sister goddesses of Greek
mythology presiding over song
and poetry and the arts and
sclehces. Muses are consid
ered a source of inspiration,
as well. And an ancient cure
for a sprained ankle was be
lieved to be the act of tying
black wool around the injury,
in nine knots. You might try
that one sometimes.
Thirteen, usually associated
with misfortune, supposedly
originated from Norse mytholo
gy when Loki, god of mischief,
increased the number of guests
to 13 and one was slain. It
also gains confirmation when
applied to the Last Supper,
where Christ was*present with
his 12 disciples.
Seven has been a lucky num
ber to many people. The sev
enth son Is usually considered
as especially gifted, and the
seventh' son of a seventh son
is out of this world with good
fortune.
Five, for whatever else it
may be known, gained fame
several years ago when "5
O'clock shadow" became a
household phrase, and more
recently it has some of the
ancient evil connotations as
more and more people are
"Taking the Fifth"? some the
amendment and others the
cirink.
One of the most sacred num
bers In American minds re
mains the eleventh hour of the
eleventh day of the eleventh
month. This was Armistice
Day, November 11, 1918, and
it still signifies peace, even
though there is no peace.
New math is bringing new
meaning to numbers. Adults
find they are at a loss to help
their youngsters prepare their
lessons. Some are attending
special schools to gain a better
understanding of the newest
phase in education.
And while we're ori numbers,
and if you have nothing better
to do,, try figuring this one,
taken from P. T. Barnum's
Autobiography:
"Suppose," said I, "a man
is thirty years of age and he
has a child one year of age,
he Is thirty times older than
ually but surely nearer and
nearer, *fhi time he must over
take him. The question there
fore is, suppose it was possible
for them to live long enough,
how old would the father be
when the child overtook him
and became the same age?"
Don't ask us for the answer.
We have no idea, but our guess
is that the youngster would
have a right ancient pappy.
his child. When the child is
thirty years old, the father,
being sixty, is only twice as
old as his child. When the
child is sixty, the father is
ninety, and therefore only one
third older than the child. When
the child is ninety the father is
one hundred and twenty, and
therefore only one fourth old
er than the child. Thus you see,
gentlemen, the child is grad
