M can sUll have cake as deliciously rich as in
with the aid of creamy Brazil nuts, a war-missed food treat now
taS Sain in the stores. The return of Brazil's crcamy-s.ecl ,un-
alp nuts is especially good news at a time when housewives
Lrd put to it to be patriotic and still answer the'family’s clamor
for cake. Below is the recipe for a flourless, butterless spong - yp
cake that answers all questions:
TOASTED BRAZIL NUT CAKE

Dept. Announces
Regulations For
Overseas Mailing
The war is over—there, but so
are thousands of our servicemen.
This year larger and heavier
Christmas packages may be sent
overseas, according to new reg"
ulations issued by the Postmafiter
General, and the deadline for mail
ing has been moved up a month.
All packages meant for the GI’s
Christmas party must be sent be
tween October 15 and November
15. Instead of the wartime weight
limit of five pounds, 70 pounds
may now be shipped and a total of
a hundred inches in length and
girth of the package is now allowed
instead of the former 36 inches.
This allows a greater variety of
gift selections, but the good old
standbys of books, cigarettes, cig
arette lighters, watches, games, sta
tionery and billfolds are still on
the want list. Selection is simpli-
field this season merely by asking
returned veterans who have ex
perienced a Christmas over there.
Do not try to outguess the un
predictable army and navy troop
shipment orders. Send gifts, any
way. Loss of a few doUars is much
better than loss of spirit The ex
cuse, “I thought you’d be home
by then”, doesn’t make a happy
Yuletide according to the lonely
soldier’s way of thinking.
To avoid possible repeat gifts it
is advisable to contact other well-
wishers and plan some kind of co
ordinated gift-sending.

Reporting Injuries
Much has been said in recent
months about injuries not being
reported at the time they occur.
The importance of getting im-'
I mediate treatment has been stress-
I ed time and again. Yet, hardly
a week passes that we do not have
from one to three cases, reported
from one to three days late. WHY
IS THIS?
To begin with, you have been
instructed to report even the
minor injuries at the time they
occur. This is for your protection
and you are not penalized in
any way for the time spent at
First Aid. A registered nurse is
on duty at all times and there is
no charge for any treatment you
receive, whether the injury oc-
cured on or off the job. Infec
tion cases often result in the loss
of time and wages, and we are
only too anxious to help you stay
i on the job.
1 Is there anything more we can
say or do?
