When you cook with honey, re member that it is part water. Re place sugar with honey, cup for cup, but use one-half the quantity of other liquid called for. For example, if the original recipe called for one cup sugar and one cup milk, use one cup honey and Yi cup milk. Other ingredients remain the same. When honey is used in cakes and quick breads, be sure to bake at the lowest temperature possible so the honey won't scorch. Honey takes up moisture as it stands. It is not so good for can dies and frostings unless they are eaten at once. Honey will keep- fruit cakes and steamed puddings moist. Honey is good for a sandwich filling creamed with butter, nuts, grated orange peel, cream cheese or peanut butter. Honey, like other forms of sug ar, supplies energy to the body. ' A time-saving frosting: Fur de licious cookie frosting that takes little time to make, melt 8 chocolate-covered peppermints in dou ble boiler. Stir weU and add one teaspoon cream. Stir again and spread on cookies. , There is just one trick to cheese cookery and that is, never "cook" the cheese just melt it. Otherwise it may become tough and stringy. Shave it thin or grate it so it will blend better and faster with other foods. Did you ever use cheese in your soup. Soup season is al most here, so why not grate cheese fine and sprinkle plenti fully into cream of onion, tomato or potato soup. From soup to dessert, cheese will- improve the flavor and good ness of any meal. NOTICE OF SALE North Carolina, Macon County.

The stakes are the highest in all the history of mankind. And one of them is the American's traditional right to come and go when he pleases. Our enemies say that they will erase this birthright of ours; that they'll tell us when we can come and go. But they'll find that it's easier said than done. No goose-stepping Nazi; no squint-eyed Jap is going to tell Americans that they can't run down to the seashore or vacation in the moun tains or take the children to visit Aunt Mary back home. For we are going to win this war! How? With the bravery and the brilliance of our men in uniform. With the toil and sweat of millions of loyal workers in forest, field, factory and mine. With our genius for invention, organization and production. With the willing sacrifices of every patriotic Ameri can. " . ' r Yes, we will win this war even if we have to lay aside for awhile our right to come and go when we please. That's why the officers and employees of the Southern Railway System have solemnly pledged their all to the winning of the war. That's why our entire transportation plant; all our re sources of man-power and experience are en listed for the duration in the service of the na tion. That's why we put the transportation needs of Uncle Sam first before any and every civilian need that your right to come and go when you please may be preserved for you and far the generations of Americans yt W come. In the first seven months of this year we have carried almost 600,000 men in uniform, all moving under orders. They traveled in 24,915 coaches and Pullmans; in 1,564 special trains and 5,563 extra cars attached to our regular passenger trains. And these figures do not in clude the additional hundreds of thousands who have traveled over our lines on furlough or in small groups on transfer orders. That's why our trains are often late troop trains and war freight have the right of way. That's why they are often crowded so many boys want to visit home at the same time. That's why we have pressed old coaches into service in our desperate effort to help everyone to come and go when they please. That's why we have had to lower temporarily the standards of serv ice of which we have been so proud. And that's the way we know you want it to be. Your willing sacrifices of some travel com forts and conveniences are more than a personal contribution to the war effort. They are 'an inspiration to those of us who railroad to plan for the day when vk.ory comes; to plan for a better Southern Railway System better to "Serve die South". For, with victory, we know that a new day will come to our Southland; a new day of prosperity and happiness and peace; a new day with freedom to come and go y hen you please. Thit is worth fighting for! President. SOUTHERN RAILWAY SYSTEM E HI SOU THERN SUnS THE SOUTH
