Clever Buying Is One Solution For High Cost Of Food -o By VIRGINIA BLOUNT, Home Service Director, Virginia Electric & Power Co. We cannot forget that food costs are higher, even if we do very little marketing. We must now do some definite planning if we do not wish to buy food of in ferior quality, eat less, spend less for clothes, vacations or movies. Clever buying will answer the puzzle. Place meals around week end specials, instead of first plan ning meals, then buying meat and vegetables regardless of whether they are the highest price food of the week. Buy in quantities, if possible. Take advantage of monthly home magazines for they provide a wealth of suggestions. Successful meal planning takes so many interesting things into consideration. Marketing, ade quate storage, combination of fla vor and appearance, and not to be forgotten, garnishing. Pimento strips, green pepper cut in fancy shapes; radishes and parsley which keep so well in your elec tric refrigerator crisping pan, all play their parts to make your food attractive. Cheese Sauce 3 T. butter V* t. paprika 1 t. salt 3 T- flour 2Y* c. milk 1 c. grated cheese Melt the butter, add the flour and seasonings. When well blend ed, add the milk. Cook until thick, then add the cheese, allow ing the cheese to melt and the sauce to stay hot over hot water.

ROCKFISH are running in the Roanoke. Last night, a 62 pounder was caught and was on display at the Acme Grocery Co., Weldon, today.

BERMUDA in May is the plan of Charley Johnson, local laundryman, who intends to sail from Charleston, the last of May with a boat load of laundrymen off to annual con vention. FOLLOW Up of the recent city-wide rat-killing campaign will start next week when the City crew will rebait certain sections. Persons still bothered with rats and those whose property might have been missed are asked to call the of fices of the R. R. Merchants Association or the office of the City Clerk and report same. 5,000 TULIPS are blooming this week in the flower gardens of “Miss Fanny” Manning and lovers of flowers are invited to inspect them.

Tip to those who might try later: Do not hold to pole with your hands; grab it in the crook of the elbow. Jump, wrap legs around the pole, close your eyes and hope for the best. So many (other) kids have been sliding down the pole, the Fire Dept, rooms must be kept locked these days, as one might get hurt. Another temptation the kids cannot resist: to clang the big bell on the trucks. SKILLED labor is at a premium at the Federal Employment Agency.
