Scene
On The
Beaten Path
By MRS. ALLEN SILER
Missing Iwm the local scene
is an energetic young woman with
a sparkling personality and a
bright smile for everyone. Mrs.
C. Banks Finger, or "Bea", as
she is known to many here (in
cluding fhe 15 teen-age girls who
were members of one of her Scout
troops), has moved to Columbia.
S. C., with Mr. Finger and their
young son, "Sonny".
Since coming to Franklin sev- j
eral years ago, "Bea" has been
active in church and community
activities. Her absence will be felt
by all the groups with which she
shared her enthusiasm and tal
ents, but none can possibly miss
her as much as the girls of the
Scout troop whom she has practi
cally "raised".
She worked and played with i
1 them and instilled in each a love 1
j of Scouting and the principles
j for which it stands. She had the
' gift of making each activity in
! teresting and fun to do, and made
of herself a popular counselor and
I friend.
Her house was a second home
and the scene for numerous
parties and picnics for this group
j of Girl Scouts. "Bea" planned
! many outings for them. One day
during the past summer, they
made a trip to Asheville, where
they visited the famous Biltmore
House, and afterward saw the
movie, "The Swan", which was
having its premiere there. (It will
be remembered that "The Swan"
was made at Biltmore House > .
Some of the parents helped with
transportation to Asheville, but
"Bea" and the girls planned and
arranged this unusual and edu
cational trip.
Franklin wishes the Fingers well
in their new home, but their

I am not trying to usurp the
(unction of the home demontra
tion's column, but I'd like to pass j
on a recipe which was given to
me recently when I was in Atlanta.
Miss Lucy Slagle, a Macon County
woman, who _is head of the Home
Service Department of the Atlanta
Gas Light Company, gave it to
me. She used it on her TV show,
so perhaps it isn't as new to most
people as it is to me. However,
since it is what I consider a really
different cake, and I might add.
delicious too. here is the recipe:
POPPY SEED CAKE
',2 cup poppy seed
1 cup milk
% cup butter
l'/b cups sugar
Vi teasp. vanilla
teasp. almond extract
2 cups flour
2 teasp. baking powder

Soak poppy seed in milk for at
least two hours. Cream butter,
gradually add sugar and continue
| creaming until light and fluffy.
I Add flavoring. Sift flour, baking
[powder, and salt together. Add
alternately with milk and poppy
seed to creamed mixture. Beat
egg whites until soft peaks are
formed; fold into batter. Pour
batter into two greased and flour
ed 8-inch cake pans or one 9x13x2
inch pan. Bake at 350 deg. for
30 to 35 minutes. When cool
spread cream filling between
layers or over top of cake. Sprinkle
with nuts if desired.
CREAM FILLING
2 cups milk
Mt to 2/3 cup sugar
