Here 's Something New—
A "Sandwich Luncheon"
By JOSEPHINE B. GIBSON
Director, Home Economics Dept.,
H. J. Heinz Company
IF you are planning to entertain
informally, you will enjoy serv
ing the "Sandwich Luncheon" sug
gested below. Sandwiches are
used both for the main and the
dessert courses; and you will find
that the entire meal is easily
served, attractive in appearance,
and truly good.
I am suggesting an appetizing
Cream of Tomato Soup for the first
course, to be followed by individual
plates of assorted sandwiches and
salads. This type of luncheon
plate is decidedly in vogue at ex
clusive tea rooms; and you will
find that cake and ice cream,
served in the form of sl sandwich,
makes an unusual and attractive
desseTt.
This novel luncheon not only
will appeal to your guests; but it
is one of the easiest menus imag
inable for the hostess who must
serve without help, since all of the
preparation may be finished well
in advance of the arrival of the
first guest. Just try this menu the
next time you entertain:
Cream of Tomato Soup
Crisp Crackers

PAVING ON HIGHWAY
COMPLETED SATURDAY
When the last concrete was pour
j ed by the Murray Construction
Company last Saturday afternoon,
the paving of No. 10 highway from
the coast of North Carolina to the
extreme western boundary was com
pleted. The last concrete was poured
just east of the city limits and no
doubt would have been celebrated
as an important event except for
I the fact, that the thoughts of the
majority of the citizens was still fo
cused on the recent disastrous fire
that so rapidly swept away the Tan
I rery building late Friday evening.
I The unusually heavy downpour of
rain at this time is considered by
many of the citizens as the greatest
aid in saving the town.
