Page 2-B Creative Cooking From The Chowan Herald Kitchen By Mildred Haskins When you are serving just a salad for luncheon or dinner, make sure it is hearty enough so you and .your family won’t be hungry kn hour or so later. But hearty doesn’t have to mean expensive. Meal-In- One Salad is basically a bacon and spinach salad with some interesting ad ditions such as Swiss cheese and chopped hard-cooked eggs, radishes and onions, and—would you believe — rice. If you have never tried rice in a tossed salad, you’re in for a treat. It absorbs the zippy dressing so that it doesn’t all go straight to the bottom. In addition to being delicious, this is a good example of a meal com bination made using a minimum of expensive meat. Besides, did you ever wonder just what to do with a dish of left-over rice? Put it in a salad and don’t feel too bad over misjudging the amount of rice needed for the previous meal.

Luncheon Layered Salad •JSsttoj W4rm MEAL-IN-ONE-SALAD— It is deceptive in appearance. Looking so light and airy, you might think its just a side salad. But this salad is full of hearty ingredients - enough to make it a meal all by itself. What the nation needs is more statesmen who want to know what is right before trying to ascertain the number of voters involved. THE CHOWAN HERALD is an easy main dish to be prepared ahead of serving time and serves 12. Prepare without the chicken and serve it with any entree.

Since 1940. the cost of living has increased a whopping 284%. Everything—lood, gas. rent, clothes, you name it-has gone up in price. And electricity has been no exception. But a close look at the unit price of electricity shows it has actually increased very little over the years. From 1954 to 1970, Vepco reduced its rates several times. Today, the average resi dential cost per kiiowatthour is 3.88 cents- 5% mote than 1940. Why then are electric bills higher than they were in 1940? Consumption and fuel costs soar. The biggest single factor is the tremendous of electricity households, business and industry consume these days compared to a generation ago. The average Vepco family is using about 9 times as much electricity as it was 35 years ago. The second major reason for rising electric bills has been inflation, especially the higher cost of fuel used to generate elec tricity. The days of cheap energy disappeared with the oil embargo in 1973. Over TO% of the increase in the price of your electricity since 1970 is due to the increase in fuel costs. Electric service must be weighed against other commodi ties in both value and cost Prices for groceries, medical services, gasoline and many other commodities have risen sharply in the Seventies, as has the price of electricity. The question is whether the value of die commodity or service has increased during that tune. Sf ■ lot ol value for yam electric doiet. Today, a typical North Carolina family might consume about 750 lulowatthours of electricity per month. Their August bill would be about 53Z66. When you consider the many uses of electricity—lights, refrigerator, TV. radio, washer, toaster, and so on - all for about a dollar a day. it's a hard bargain to beat. 1 cup cheddar cheese goldfish crackers In large bowl, combine vegetables.

The others use more—in some cases considerably more. But how much you use is entirely up to you. Keeping a good thing going. The biggest challenge facing electric utilities today is to find the most economical way of providing the huge amounts of power needed for the future. Right now, Vepco is working toward developing a balanced use of domestic energy sources that will reduce our dependence on expensive foreign fuels. Nuclear power stations will produce half of Vepco's energy when our first two North Anna nuclear units go into operation, making use of the most economical fuel source presently avail able. Coal is being used wherever it is more economical than oil. And plans for pumped storage hydroelectric generation are also being developed. Energy is our livelihood. America must have dependable, economical energy in order to grow. To provide this energy, Vepco supports a strong national policy of energy independence, built on environmentally sound use of domestic sud resources and wise use of electricity we generate. In this way, America can extend its high standard of Dving to all our citizens, and help insure adequate energy supplies for future generations. Vepco 'v Thursday, August 26,1976 The Planning Council, meeting at the Royal Villa in Raleigh, reviewed each of the regional plans, and referred them to the staff of the Office of Employment and Training for the com pilation into one com prehensive (dan for sub mission to the N.v C. Man power Services Council and the U. S. Department of Labor. The plan covers Title I of CETA and involves programs dealing with job placement, classroom skill training, remedial education, on-the-job training, and public service employment.
