Mrs. Donald Stallings (Pauline)
is one o fthose housekeepers who
love to try out new recipes. She
gave us her latest lemon pie, and j
we like it very much. If you object
to the taste given by using flour or
cornstarch for thickening the cus
tard, try this.
Pauline said she got the recipe
from Mrs- Avon Privette, to whom
it had been given by Mrs. W. R.
Collie of Kinston. •
Beat the yolks of three eggs with
one cupful of sugar until light,
then add the juice of one lemon. To
this add a cupful of loaf bread soak
ed in all the water it will absorb,
and cook the mixture slowly untjl
it is thick, when a lump of butter
is to be stirred in. Just let your
taste and the amount of butter
you have on hand decide the size of 1
the lump Bake the crust of the
pie before pouring in the filling.
Top with a meringue made of the
whites of the three eggs beaten
with six tahlespoonsful of sugar,
added a spoonful at a time. Bake
in a very slow oven until meringue
browns. Use more lemon if you
prefer. This is the sort of pie
you like to have when company
comes or when you tell your hus
band you need a new' hat.
After reading this column last
w'eek, Mrs. Murray out at Union
Hope sent me word that she had ;
found a corncob makes a fairly
good currycomb when one does a
cow 7 a good turn by scratching her
neck or her head. And so does a
rough piece of pine bark.
But if you w r ant to see real grati- j
tule, scratch a pig.

JUNIOR-SENIOR
BANQUET
Wakelon’s 55 juniors entertained
the 43 members of the senior classi
at a banquet on Friday night of
last week. Additional guests were
faculty members, members of the
school board and their wives, and
room representatives of the P. -T.
A., who brought the number pres
ent to 130. Under the supervision
of Mrs. J. W. Valentine, Misses
Mary Palmer and Esther Lee Cox
of Wakelon’s high school faculty,
the occasion was most enjoyable.
A booklet entitled “Memories”
held the. class rolls of seniors and
jui tors with the date; names of
faculty members; the menu, which
was given in nautical terms; the
evening’s program; and blank pag
es for autographs and memories.
The program protrayed a ship
with officers and crew and the dec
orations in red and white empha
sized the idea. Margaret Watson
as captain welcomed the guests.
The junior class song was given by
the crew. Evelyn Carroll as first
mate toasted the seniors, the re
sponse being made by Mike Eddins.
Thomas Dell, second mate, toasted
the school board and Dr. Massey re
sponded. A quartet of cabin boys
sang. Bruce Williams, boatswain,
toasted the faculty to which Mr.
Moser replied. Cornelia Herring',
steward, gave a toast to grade
parents with Mrs. C. M. Watson
responding. The toast to cooks
was by Ercell Littleton as sea-cook.
A group of sailors danced. Anne
Hicks gave a reading and the last
number was Shipmates Forever by
mermaids-
After this the guests were invit
ed to the gymnasium where danc
ing was enjoyed. Here decorations
again were carried out in red and
white.

Mrs. Hunter Bell,
Playground Director.
An ad in a daily of last Sunday
stated that two men were wanted
to do “thirty days work between
the ages of thirty and forty-five.”
Sounds like a nice job for those
who care to work only two days a
year.

•
As a meeting of the local Recrea
tion Committee here on Wednesi
day night Miss Louise Dickinson,
District Supervisor, and Miss
Catherine Donlon, Wake County
Supervisor were present.
Since the treasury is empty and
funds are needed for purchasing
equipment for the playground,
plans were made for Play Night
in the gymnasium at Wakelon on
Thursday night, April 1.
A basketball game will be one
feature of the entertainment In
addition a game will be played by
business men of the community—
whose business is NOT Basketball.
Other stunts will be presented and
Miss Dorlon promises to brifig
down the Dixie Hot Shots from
Raleigh. The Hot Shots are boysi
from the Caraleigh Recreation
Center and their performance has
won much praise.
had been told by fellow-workers
that his wife and Moss were too in
t mate, but is said to have replied
that “Dolly wouldn’t play like
that.” Finally, finding Moss in his
home, Worley became angered and
the killing is held to be the result.
Moss contends that the woman did
the stabbing, while she declared
the assailant was an unidentified
man on the highway.
NUMBER 39
Since I’ve been riding a bicycle
to and from work, when the weath
er permits, people have again be
gun shaking their heads, and tap
ping them gently with a forefinger.
Up to the present I thought they
were tipping their hats, but re
cently I’ve noticed that of
them don’t have on hats. I just
want to thank those doing this
for their courtesy. I may not have
seen some of them, but I’m sure
they realize that riding a bicycle
is hard work, and the effoi’t it
takes to say “howdy” if transfer
red into energy and conveyed to
my pedal appendagesi would fur
nish the necessary locomotion to
carry me a block, more or less.
However, I am forced to believe
that Brown person of the banking
service doesn’t exactly smile,
he laughs out loud. I don’t mind
it though, because I think he’s
just jealous of my new red bicy
cle. Yah! Yah!
' Did you ever notice how people
give the wrong impression with
th ngs they say ? They mean well,
, but they just slip up and say the
wrong thing. For instance —
I went into a drug store recently
and asked for a certain brand of
pills and while the druggist was
' wrapping them he commented
“These surely are good pills—
my sister took them till she died”.
Os course the pills didn’t kill
her, and I knew what he meant —
but the way it sounded.
While my w fe was recuperating
from double pneumonia in Mary
Elizabeth Hospital last year, one
of the local ministers would ask
concerning her condition each day.
After every conversation, he would
end with— “Well, I hope she gets
well”. Os course I understood, but
It was amusing
! Mrs. C. T- Williams wasi taken to
i the hospital with pneumonia a few
! years ago, and Mr. Williams gave
the hospital my father’s telephone
! number which they were to call in
j case Mrs. Williams became worse,
j Mr. Williams was up early one
i morning and glancing up the road,
J saw Dad’s car coming at a fast clip
j toward him. The car came on into
; the yard and pulled up beside Bro.
Tommie.
Everyone knows how slowly
my father talks when he tries and
he dragged out— “Well, I’ve got
some news for you. (without smil
ing). Mr. Williams’ heart stopped
momentarily and he gulped “What
.is it?” “The hospital phoned and
sa d your wife is, that is— your
w fe— er, they said for you to come
after her. She’s, well enough to
come home.”
Mr Williams still contends that
“the Preacher shouldn’t have done
me like that’’.
I Sincerely,
I The Swashbuckler.
