Extension Home Economics Tips
Microwave Safety
The main hazard with a
nicowave oven is improper
ise. not microwave leakage.
Some owners have gotten
jurned froe- steam building
jp inside hot foods, from
food exploding in the oven,
and from touching hot
fishes.
A common practice in
microwave cooking is to
cover dishes with a clear
plastic wrap. However, when
this is lifted, there's a possi
bility of a steam burn to the
hands or face.
There is also the danger of
food exploding inside the
oven. So it is important to
prick the skins of potatoes
and squash. And. if you are
cooking vegetables inside a
plastic bag. always slit the
bag.
You can get burned by
touching hot dishes.
Although the cooking uten
sils will not absorb heat from
the micrqwave oven, they
can absorb heat from the
food.
Think "Double Duty" for
Wedding Gifts
When buying a wedding
;ift. think "double duty" for
Christmas
Musical
Special Christmas music
will be rendered by W.ue
Christian Academy at the
Christian Chapel Free Will
Baptist Church on Sunday.

A covered-dish dinner will
be served after services in
the church parlor. The pastor
of the church, the Rev. Ed
Miles, encourages everyone
to come out to worship and
fellowship in the true
Christmas spirit.
multipurpose gifts often have
a greater chance of being
used, especially if storage
space is limited in the newly
weds' home.
Consider buying combina
tion appliances such as a can
opener with a knife-sharpen
er attached. Stay away from
gadget equipment for most
newlyweds have little use for
extra special purpose appli
ances.
Slow cookers or ceramic
pans make good double
duty gifts. Both husband and
th T JenjoV ^k'ng with
them. And. as a bonus, many
slow cookers and ceramic fry
pans can be used as serving
dishes when the food is
ready.
Consider the possibility of ,
buying a blender for "the 1
happy pair. Even a two
speed model has multiple
uses. And a simple rather
than complex blender mav be
more satisfactory both to'the
book and t0 V?Ur Pocket
If you are able to spend a
httle more money, a portable
barbecue grill could be the
Perfect gift lf the |e
loves gardening and has the
space for a plot, think about
selecting some all-purpose
garden tools.
When it comes to buying a
wedding present, think
double duty in equipment
and appliances. You can
make both newlyweds happy
with one versatile gift.
Beating the Blues
Everyone feels sad and
lonely once in awhile, but
7C ufollcs are blue more
often than other^And. since
the blues are a mild form of
depression, they should
receive attention.
So. next time you feel the
blues coming on. try one of
these suggestions:
Get busy and burn up
some energy. Spruce up the
house or work in the vard
Next, don't wait for some
one to call you. Instead.
nvue a neighbor over jus, as
rolls are coming out of
the oven; or visit or tele
phone a friend or relative
that you want to talk to.
Or. do something nice for
someone else. Offer to do an
errand for your shut-in
neighbor or sign up for
volunteer work. Try a new
hobby. Choose one that you
can either do alone or try to
get involved with people
through a class, a trip or
exhibit. Or, you might want
to fight for a social cause. Try
quilting or work at training a
pet.
Take a walk and breathe
deeply and enjoy the beauty
and wonders of nature. Or
take time to meditate. Read
an inspirational book, write
your life history, count your
blessings and mentally patch
up unresolved differences.
There's nothing like a whole
day alone to bring peace to
the soul.
And last, but not least,
resolve to be your own best
friend. Plan a schedule
around your favorite activi
ties and pamper yourself.
Before you know it, the blues
will have disappeared.
School Board
Ok's Discussion
Of Program
The Duplin County school
board approved a request by
Ruby Sauls of Bowdens last
week to discuss the vital
organ donation program with
seniors of the county's four
high school.;.
Mrs. Sauls became blind
15 years ago. Eye transplants
have made it possible for her
to see. "Three people had to
die first so 1 could see
again," she told the board.
The board also limited
loans from the Dickson
Charity Fund to $1,000 per
year for students in post
secondary schools, Dians are
based on family need and
must be secured, usually by
a property lien.
The fund w as started more
than 100 years ago with
SI.500 to enable poor people
to get an educatiotf. The
interest rate is 6 percent on
the loans, which are payable
after the students graduate.
Superintendent L.S. Guy
said rebuilding the Kenans
wile Elementary School roof
will begin in two weeks. The
work will be financed by an
insurance payment and done
by E.L. Scott Rixifing Co. of
Kinston and architects Bal
lard. McKim and Sawyer of
Wilmington.
The board declared the
former teacherage buildings
at B.F. Grady School as
surplus property. They will
be offered for sale at a date
to be set later.
The Tuesday night meet
ing was the last for Graham
Phillips, who come on the
board in April 1%9, and E.L.
Boyette. who joined the
board in April 1967.
Bill Richards of Wallace
and Carl Pate Sr. of Beula
ville will replace them at the
board's Dec. 7 meeting. A
farewell supper for the re
tiring board members is
scheduled Dec. 13 at the
Country Squire on N.C. 24
west of Kenansvjlle.

ECIA District Parent ?
Advisory Council Meets
The ECIA Chapter 1 Dis
trict Parent Advisory Council
held its first meeting Nov. 18
in the O.P. Johnson Educa
tion Building in Kenansville.
After an introduction of all
ECIA personnel, parents and
guests, a slide film pre
sentation, "Coming Changes
in Federal Education," was
given. This pointed out that
the ECIA Chapter 1 replaced
at the beginning of the
1982-83 school year, the Ele
mentary and Secondary
Education Act (ESEA) Title I
which had been providing
supplemental services to
educationally disadvantaged
students in Duplin County
over a period of 15 years. It
also made clear that the basic
thrust remains the same ?
to improve the education of
the educationally disadvan
taged students. Federal
money still must be used so
as to supplement, and not
take the place of, state and
local money used to provide
education for the students in
? lio /wiinfii
Mrs. Anne Jackson.
Federal program director,
discussed the film presen
tation and invited questions
from all present. She pointed
out that this year EC1A
Chapter 1 funds provide
reading labs for the students
in grades 4-12 and math labs
for those in grades 7, 8, 9 and
migrant services in four ele
mentary schools.
Mrs. Floryda Carlton.
EC1A Chapter 1 reading
supervisor, introduced Mrs.
Deborah Grady, reading lab
teacher at E.E. Smith Jr.
High School, and Mrs. Jo
hanna Vest, math lab teacher
at North Duplin Jr. High
School. These teachers ex
plained the learning program
used with students in their
labs.
Miss Verlene Murray and
Mrs. Jo Riley at Chinquapin
Elementary. Mrs. Jacquelyn
Humphrey of Bculaville Ele
mentary, Mrs. Marie Harper
with the migrant program at
B.F. Grady Elementary, and
Owen Martin with the mi
grant program at North
Duplin Elementary, were
present to discuss or answer
questions concerning
programs in their schools.
One question that arose
and was of interest was,
"How can parents best help
their children at home?"
Some suggestions given by
teachers and Mrs. Carlton
were: provide a stable home
life: provide a quiet place for
studying; discuss television
programs pointing out
certain things they need to
look for; show an interest in
school and school work by
letting them know that edu
cation is important to you as
a parent; and use everyday
work experiences to provide
learning experiences for
children. Example: When
you go shopping, take chil
dren and let them help with
such things as comparing
prices, reading labels, etc.
The group agreed to
change the meeting date to
the fourth Tuesday of Jan
uary, March, April and May.
The following will serve as
officers for the EC1A Chapter
1 District Parent Advisory
Council for the 1982-83
school year: Mrs. Esther
