Oysters Are Good For You
ON’T stick your finger into
an oyster shell. You may
— get it pinched. This is a
truth of long standing. In fact
it is possible that a prehistoric
Piltdown man may have been the
first to get his finger caught be
tween the shells, and on sucking
it to ease the pain, have discov
ered how delectable is the flavor
of this sea food. At least that
was the theory of Dr. II. D. Pease
in an article entitled “The Oyster
—Modern Science Comes to the
Support of an Ancient Food” pub
lished last year in the Journal of
Chemical Education.
Dr. E. J. Coulscn states in a
new publication of the United
States Bureau of Fisheries that
oysters contain all the minerals
which have been found necessary
■to maintain and promote normal
reproduction and lactation in
laboratory animals. In particular
he stresses the health value of the
oyster stew which is a combina
tion of oysters and n4.lt.
Help Anemic People
Among the most interesting of
comparatively recent discoveries
in nutrition, according to this
authority, is the fact that minute
amounts of the less common min
eral elements are of real impor
tance in the diet.
As a source of iron and copper,
the oyster is comparable only
with liver. These metals in the
oyster were found to be readily
used by laboratory animals for
hemoglobin production and should
therefore bo efficacious in the
treatment and prevention of nu
tritional anemia of all types
roort'-'r-^ to tiw.otnmnt w<r’
iron or iron and copper. To in
sure an adequate supply of the
inorganic constituents for hemo
globin production, it would seem
desirable to include oysters in the
diet of the pernicious anemia pa
tient in conjunction with liver ex
tract which is relatively low in
iron.
Everyone Can Get Them
Fortunately oysters are avail
able everywhere because they are
canned in great quantities. Al
though the output of canned oys
ters is lower than in past years,
there are still enough to go
around. While millions of Amer
icans eat oysters solely because
they like them, it is encouraging
to know about their richness in
minerals and other factors which
make them such an advantageous
addition to the diet.
With these facts in mind, you
would probably like to have some
recipes for the use of this sea
delicacy. Everyone knows how to
eat them raw—you just swallow
them—but did you know, for in
stance, how well they^ combine
with chicken? Here are some re
! cipes which will prove it to you
if you try them.
Oysters with Chicken
Chicken and Oyster Patties:
Make a cream sauce of one and
one-half tablespoons butter, one
and one-half tablespoons flour,
one cup thin cream, one-half tea
spoon salt, one-eighth teaspoon
celery salt and paprika. Add one
fourth cup shredded canned pimi
ento, the contents of a U-ounce
can of oysters scalded in their
! own liquor, and two cups of diced
1 ' ■' -f\n ' I r* ? "• •” •' ' w - 0? P.SS
chicken.) Serve at once in patty
shells. This fills six to eight
patties.
Chicken and Oyster Pie: Make
a sauce of two tablespoons butter,
two tablespoons flour, all the oys
ter liquor from a 5-ounce can and
one and one-fourth cups thin
cream or top milk. Season to
taste with salt and pepper. Add
the oysters, the contents of a fl
ounce can of boneless chicken and
one-half cup cooked diced celery,
and pour into individual rame
kins. Cut rounds of toast large
enough to cover tops, place one
on top of each, and sprinkle with
grated cheese. Place under broiler
flame until cheese is melted and
bubbly. Serves four.
With Mushrooms or Bacon
Oyster and Mushroom Crous
tades: Drain a 5-ounce can of
oysters and a 4-ounce can of
mushrooms. Make a sauce of two
tablespoons butter, two table
spoons flour and the combined
liquors drained from the cans.
Season to taste with salt and pep
per, add one slightly beaten egg
mixed with one-half cup cream,
pour over the oysters and mush
rooms, and heat in double boiler.
Serve as an entree in very tiny
croustades or poured over tiny
split baking powder biscuits.
Serves eight.
Oyster and Bacon Roast: Drain
a 5-ounce can of oysters, and ar
range them in shallow, buttered
earthen scallop dishes. Sprinkle
with salt, pepper and paprika.
Lay thinly a’iced lemon on top,
sprinkle with Parmesan cheese,
and set in hot oven till ba< mi is
j rt'-‘ ar’-'r* 5 •Trv*?* ^
Seasonal Buying
THERE is a wider spread in
winter between the prices of
fresh and canned vegetables
than in summer. So why not
take advantage of the lower
prices of canned foods in com
parison to fresh and buy more
canned-foods in winter than you
do in summer? This offers a sea
sonal opportunity to economize.
One good way to do this is to
combine fresh and canned vege
tables in the same dish. They
go perfectly well together as you
will find out if you try one of the
following recipes:
Mashed Mixed Vegetables: Sim
mer the contents of an 11-ounce
can diced carrots for a few min
utes, and drain. Boil five medium
potatoes, and drain. Cut three
medium onions in dice, boil and
drain. Combine the three hot
vegetables, mash thoroughly, sea
son with salt, pepper, two table
spoons butter and two or three
tablespoons cream, or enough to
moisten. Beat fluffy with a fork,
and serve hot. Serves eight.
An Appetizing Dish
Mixed Vegetable Appetizer:
Chill separately the contents of
an 8-ounce can diced carrots, an
8-ounce can diced beets, one-third
cup diced celery, and one-third
cup diced cucumber; drain off
any juice and toss lightly to
gether. Fill small cocktail glass
es or cup-shaped lettuce leaves
with this mixture. Beat one-half
cup cream, add one-half cup chili
sauce, one tablespoon mayonnaise,
one tablespoon capers and a few
grains of salt. Have very cold.
Pile this sauce on top of vege
tables. Serves eight.
Loses Right Leg As
He Rolls Under Train
Murphy, Nov. 26.—(UP)—J. K.
Stover, 35, is in a serious condition at
a Murphy hospital foiling the amputa
tion of his right leg which was nearly
severed Saturday night when he roll
ed down a crumbling embankment
and under the wheels of a passing
Southern Railway train, at Rhodo, 20
miles from here.
He is a railroad section worker and
lives with his mother, mrs. S. M.

TWO MEET DEATH
IN CAR ACCIDENT
Elkin, Nov. 23.-(UP)-Mrs Frank
Pinnix, 65, of Brooks Crossroads, was
killed instantly tonight and Clarence
Allred, Winston-Salem, died in an
Elkin hospital an hour later as a re
sult of an automobile collision near
Brooks Crossroads in which several
others were injured.
Littleton Pinnix, Mrs. Dallas Wiles
and her two chidren of Brooks Cross
roads and Clyde Hemric, Wilkes co
unty, are in the hospital with serious
injuries, the extent of which had not
been determined tonight.
A car occupied by Hemric and All
red and said to have contained 75 gal
lons of whiskey crashed into the Pin
nix car at a curve. Both automobiles
were demolished.
State Champion 4-H Girl
In Line For $400 Scholarship
The chance to win a $400 agri
cultural college scholarship will be
held by the state’s 4-H home econo
mics girl.
Dorothy G. LLoyd,17, Bahama,
Durham Co., No. Car. when she
goes to Chicago late this month to
attend the Twelfth National Club
Congress in connection with the In
ternational Live Stock Ekposition,
December 1-9.
The girl’s record will be judged
with other state champions by a
committee of state club leaders and
the scholarship winner announced at
a banquet of 1200 club delegates and
leaders. The trips to the Windy City
and the expenses while there, and the
scholarship, are awards in a nation
al home economics contest sponsor
ed by Montgomery Ward and Com
pany, who will be host to the state
home queens during their Chicago
stay.
The state champion girl’s record
reveals high achievements in various
home projects, according to the Na
tional Committee on Boys and Girls
Club Work which conducted the con
test in cooperation with extension
leaders.
Comparison of this year’s records
of state champions with last year’s
high average reveals even greater
achievements. The 1932 state queens
averaged six years of club enroll
ment, 12 projects completed, 75 ex
hibits made and contests entered,
an average gross return per girl well
over $400.
Employment Office Opens
Last Friday the re-employment of

the Releif Office, with J. E. Joines as
manager in charge of registering ap
plicants for work. Friday and Satur
day in the front hall of the court
