STATE COLLEGE HINTS
TO FARM HOMEMAKERS
By RUTH CURRENT
State Home Demonstration Agent
Memo for packing away spring
and summer clothes; Keep a pad
and pencil in your apron pocket
when you are packing away sum
mer clothes. Jot down as you work
what you put away and where.
You will save time, trouble, and
confusion next spring.
Systematic housekeepers post
an attic or closet doors a list of
articles stored in bags, boxes, or
certain closets. Some also label
each trunk, box, and bag with its
contents. Any device which helps
the housekeeper and her family
know where possessions are at a
moment’s notice makes for good
home management.
A tested recipe for pecan pie:
Pecan pie will appear on dinner
tables the country over this fall
and early winter when pecans will
be in good supply on markets,
especially in sections of the State
where pecans are grown.
Here is a tested pecan pie recipe
from food specialists; Ingredients:
1 cup pecan kernels; 3 eggs; V2
cup melted table fat. To make:
Beat the eggs, add sugar and sirup,
then salt and vaila, and last the
then salt and vanila, and last the
bottom of an unbaked pie crust.
Add the filling and bake slowly in
a moderate oven (350 degrees P.)
for 50 to 60 minutes. The nuts
will rise to the top of the pie fill
ing and form a crusted layer.
When not being worn, gloves
should not be folded up into a ball
and crammed into a purse or
pocket. They should be smoothed
out and folded, not in half, but
at the base of the fiingers. This
will keep the creases away from
the body of the glove and help
prevent cracking of the leather in
the palm or over the back of the
hand.
SHUT OUT TWICE
New York—(/P)—Kenneth Dale
Owen of the Indian Mound Farm,
New Harmony, Ind., was runnerup
bidder on both of the two highest
priced standardbred colts ever sold
at auction. He was outbid by Sol
Camp of Shafter, Calif., for the
$42,000 White Hanover in 1947,
and was topped by a syndicate for
$72,000 Imperial Hanover this
year.
When engineers first began to
talk about television they describ
ed it as “visible telephony.”
OPEN WIDER, PLEASE^ AND SAY AH—Children gave forth with plenty of “ahs” and “ohs” at
this “man in white” display in New York, It was staged at a preview of what Santa Claus will carry
in his pack this Christmas and sponsored by the American Toy Institute. Russell Ehasz plays the role
Df doctor and Barbara Bishop plays the nurse. The patient is a doll, and the miniature bed is the
adjustable hospital type. Samples of more than $300,000,000 worth of toys featured the display.

FIFTH GRADE STUDENTS
CONDUCT CHAPEL HOUR
The chapel program for the Val
dese elementary school was con
ducted by members of the school’s
fifth grade recently under the
leadership of Mrs. McCurley.
Following the reciting of scrip
ture, several songs were rendered.
A playlet, “The Hobby Show”, was
presented. Those taking parts in
the presentation were as follows:
Anna O’Quinn, Arnold Lindsey,
Allen McClure, Jewel Wilson,
, Normal Epley, Jeanette Berry,
Paula Franklin, Evelyn Bumgar
ner, Judy Humphries, Jerry
Hughey, Frank Simmons, Edwinna
Yancey, Ruby Robinson, Shirley
Coats and Patricia Ramsey.
The program ended with a dance
by Patricia Ramsey. Everyone en
joyed the program very much. An
nouncements were made by the
principal, Mr. Wilson.
During World War II, some U. S.
military manuals pointed out that
men stranded in the wilderness
might sometimes get food by
catching and eatjns insects.
IGNORES JINX
It has long been a jinx for a
player in most sports to have a
special ceremony honoring him
before or during a game. The
athlete usually has an off day.
However, Terry Sawchuck, star
goaltender of the Indianapolis
Capitals in the American Hockey
League, ignored that jinx recently
when he received his trophy ds the
outstanding rookie performed in
the league last season.
Sawchuck kicked out 36 shots,
many on miraculous saves, as his
team turned back Buffalo by a 2-1
score.
ARCHAEOLOGISTS' FINDS
BEAR OUT BIBLE STORIES
Archaeologists’ findings ofttimes
serve to further establish the au
thenticity of the story of Jesus.
Only recently a group discovered
the name of Jesus, carved before
70 A.D. and perhaps by an eye
witness to the crucifixion, among
inscriptions on 11 early Christian
burial urns found in a cave on the
Jerusalem-Bethlehem road.
The urns may provide the “old
est archaeological record of Chris
tianity” and an historical confir
mation of the trial and crucifixion
of Christ, the archaeologists said.
A sect of Hebrews, who followed
Jesus, denounced Pontius Pilate
and mourned the crucifixon of
their leader, was believed to have
left the writings on the urns in the
cave.
The Hebrew and Aramic inscrip
tions contained common names
like Miriam, Simeon, and Matti,
The Greek inscriptions and sym
bols beside them contained re
ferences to Christianity and, it
seems probable, to the crucifixion.
MOTORCYCLE DELINQUENTS
Relands, Calif.—Kenneth No
lan, thinks theory is fine, but no
substitute for first-hand learning.
So he bounced 19,000 miles across
Europe on a motorcycle to make a
personal survey of juvenile delin
quency.
Noland, a sociology major at the
University of Redlands, plans to
make youth guidance his life’s
work.
