one must draw the line or al

dominated or killed. That time (

THE CHOWAN HERALD
The inconsistencies and irregu
larities of the English language
make it one of the most difficult
languages to learn, especially to
a foreigner. One foreigner, who
has been in this country for
many years once said that when
he was learning English, on re
turning an article to a shop
keeper he had received by error,
was told. “Thank you, sir, you
are a square man, I hope you’ll
be round again.” It took the
fellow quite a while to figure out
what the shopkeeper meant.
Here’s another example of our
lock-eyed English, if B-O-U-G-II
spells bough, why doesn’t
C-O-U-G-H spell cow? I don't
know—do you?
Ho compromise with communism!
s ipport of its polio prevention
programs.
1 Two "years ago, the National
Foundation for Infantile Para-
Ivsfi changed its name to The
National Foundation in expand
ing its areas of interest beyond
| polio to include birth defects and
' arthritis, using the scientific
, knowledge and experience gained
in the fight against polio.
The New March of Dimes will
be in progress throughout the
month of January.

Food Values High
In Sweet Potatoes
Sweet potatoes are a real mar- j
keting treat for the homemaker j
who is eager to serve highly nu- 1
tritious food on a limited budget. l
Homemakers have long recog
nized that sweet potatoes are a
aize food package brimming
with vitamins A and C and
oadtd with food energy. The!
iailv hued sweet potatoes lend
.n inviting appearance to most
ntmus whether served as a part
>f the main dish, as a vegetable,
>r whipped into a flavorful pie.
To accent the natural goodness
if sweet potatoes, many menu
flanners frequently add either
■innamon. cloves, nutmeg, pop
py seed, ginger, or apple pie
spice. Butter and margarine
are a must for the enhancement
of both baked and mashed sweet
potatoes. Either light or dark
corn syrup, molasses, hnnev and
marshmallows are to be found
in some of the mashed sweet
potato recipe variations, Man.'
nuts and several fruits also train
teiiclously with this vegetable.
