WHAT YOU CAN MAKE FROM
GREEN AND RIPE TOMATOES

Tomatoes are now beginning 10 ap-
pear on the market in plentiful sup
plies, and rs this very popular vege-
table can be prepared for winter use
in many different ways, and is like
wise healthy and delicious vegetable.
1t will be well to secure as many as
possible and preserve for winter. We
suggest the following tried and true
recipes as being worth while, also
they are q little new to many Of US.
Tomato Vinegar
Use only the ripest of red tomatoes.
Mash them, then squeeze the juice out
Of the pulp thru q cheese cloth, and to
each gallon add X pound of brown su-
gar. Place in small glass jars and
set in the sun. In few days you will
have an excellent vinegar. However,
it improves with long standing.
Canned Tomat0es-
Tomatoes hat are a little too ripe
for table use (raw) are good canned.
In canning tomatoes, simply peel by
pouring boiling water over them, then
cut up and put into a large stewing
kettle and let come to brisk boil;
pour into hot jars and seal. tightly as
possible. Do not add salt or water to
them. Just follow the above. They
taste like freshly cooked ripe toma-
toes when served later on.
Green Tomato Relish
Chop one peck of green tomatoes
very fine Tor run thru the coarse knife
of the food chopper) mix with one cup
of salt and let stand over night. In
the morning drain off the brine, then
mix with the tomatoes five green pep
pers and ten large onions. Set on the
stove and pour over it good vinegar to

In the bright light Of new heroism and

OBITUARY

Mrs. Linnie Newman Rexrode died
Of cancer Wednesday at her home at
New Hampden, and was taken to
Central church Thursday where her
pastor, Rev. Lindamood, preached
her funeral to large crowd of
friends and relatives, and laid to rest
in the Winner cemetery. She leaves
a husband and son, a brother, sister,
a father, Mrs.. S. Newman, and
many to mourn her loss. She was a
kind and loving wife and mother.
She mastered the art Of saying
pleasant things. She did not expect
too much from her friends, and new
ar forgot that kind words and
smile cost nothing, but are priceless
treasures to the discouraged. She did
unto others as she would be done BIZ.
Her nephews, Ralph, Jason and EN-
erson Newman, and neices, Gertie
and Grace Chew and Annie Newman
were the pall-bearers. She was As
years, 2 months and days old, and
the second wife of Kemper Rexrode.

MRS. LANGHoRN HERE

Mrs. Dot M. Langhorne, of Lynch
burg, a Red Cross speaker and work
er, spent Sunday in Monterey in the
interests of the Christmas Roll Call.
She arrived Friday and plans were
made for a meeting at the courthouse
Saturday night, but downpour of
rain made it necessary to postpone
the meeting, and she made a talk
at the Methodist church at $3.50
Sunday afternoon, fairly good au-
dience being present. Sunday even
ing at 1880, Rev. J. c. Thrasher re-
ouested Mrs. Langhorne to take his
place at the evening service, so she
delivered a second address at the same
place. She also visited the M. H. S.
Monday morning and gave the stu
dents a. talk on the subject which
seems to be very near her heart
Mrs. Langhorne's presentation of
the subject-more especially the
home service branch of tn work
was forceful and convincing, and the
local organization could not have
made a better selection Of speaker
to visit the county at this time.
Her conception of the work ahead
of universal Red Cross member
ship is inspiring, and almost limitless
in possibilities. 1t is pity that
every man, woman and child in the
county could not have heard her.
Her declaration that pleasing, I'M
iversal brotherhood had been born of
the strife and suffering of war finds
an echo in every true American
heart, and the man who has not a.
wakened~to this new benevolence,
whose heart and soul do not respond
to the new born emotion, is in a
lonely, pitiable class.
This was Mrs. Langhorne's first
visit to Highland, and, referring to
some personal impressions she stat
ed that Highland should be proud Of
her roads, that they were the best
she had seen in any Of the counties
travelled.
While according her all honesty in
this statement, some are disposed to
hold that the good woman is so thor
oughly engrossed with her noble
work that she is oblivious to jolts
and bumps. After all we may be
better off than we think, a set of
chronic grumblers who don't appre-
ciate what we have.

We would also like to urge every
member of the Red Cross to answer
the Christmas Roll Call by paying
their dues of $500 or $500, if Red
Cross Magazine is wanted, before
Dec. 26th. This money is much
needed and will take the place OF
Red Cross drive. 1t is planned to
have the year begin with the 1st OF
Jan. so those paying dues now will
not be asked to pay again until Dec.
1910. We hope to have every mem

Mrs. Chap Pitsenberger returned
Saturday from Columbus, Ohio where
she had gone to visit her brother,
Charles Holt who is very i'll with tu-

His wife, and oldest child are also

| She brought with her their l6
months old baby, a boy and a twin.
Mrs. Jones Holt, of Covington, Va,
who accompanied her brought the

Mason Armstrong, who has been

having been demobilized. Two or
three other boys from camp, whose
names we have not learned, also
came home yesterday.
Letters have been. received since
the armistic from End Lieut.. Russell
M. Eagle, and Private Rembert, and
Josiah Eagle. They gave thrilling
accounts of the celebration. Paris
celebrated for a week. They were
well, and hoped soon to be turning
their faces home-ward.
Several other boys from our neigh
borhood have been heard from since
the armistic, among them 1st Lieut..

o. E. Wade and Robert Wiley went
to Camp Lee last Friday, returning
Tuesday. Each has son in train
ing there, Cecil Wade and Oscar WI
ley. Their company is quarantined
on account of measles, Cecil being
one of the victims of the disease. The
bows in camp are in the dark as to
the date of their rehabilitation. 4,
The Red Cross Roll Call has start
ed off encouragingly. Workers are
in the field and the response promises
to be good See that your name is
on the Roll. If you are shut in by
illness, phone or write for a place on
this American Honor Roll. High
lands showing now is 17.7 of per
population. The aim is to make it
100. In order that there may be no
confusion, you are reminded that this
Roll Call applies only to adults-the
800 members-and the juniors are
not asked to renew at this time.
This explanation is made by order OF
the Chairman of the organization.
The announcement that all dis
charged soldiers will be allowed to
keep their uniforms is what was
looked for, and is a mere matter of
Justice to the boys. When all our
boys get back we want to see them
"mobalized" at the county seat, pa
rade for the entertainment of the
home folks and be given a rousing
reception, such as is due returning
heroes and victors.
Those who have subscribed for
War Saving Stamps are again urged
to redeem their pledges. 1t is an
obligation and you cannot afford to
disregord it. The county is still
short of it's quota. Buy more, re-
deem all pledges and help put the
county over the top.

HOW TO FIGHT
SPANISH INFLUENZA
BY DIR. L. ". BOWERS.

Avoid crowds, coughs and towards,
but fear neither germs nor Germans
Keep the system in good order, take
plenty of exercise in the fresh air and
practice cleanliness. Remember a clean
mouth, a clean skin, and clean bowels
are protecting armour against disease.
To keep the liver and bowels regular
and to carry away the poisons within,
it is best to take a vegetable pill every
other day, made up of May-apple, aloes,
ialap, and sugar coated, to be lad at
most drug stores, known as DR.. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets. If there is sudden
onset of what appears like a hard cold,
one should go to bed, wrap warm, take
q hot mustard foot-bath and drink copi-
ously of hot lemonade. Ifpain develops
in head or back, ask the druggist for
Anuric (anti-uric } tablets. These will
flush the bladder and kidneys and carry
off poisonous germs. To control the
pains and aches take one Anuric tablet
every two hours, with frequent drinks OF
lemonade. The pneumonia appears in
a most treacherous way, when the infu-
enza victim is apparently recovering and
anxious to leave his bed. In recovering
from a bad attack of influenza or pneu-
monia the system should be built up
with good herbal tonic, such as DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, made
without alcohol from the roots and barks
of American forest trees, or his Irontic
(iron tonic) tablets, which can be OBJ
tanned at most drug stores, or send l0c.

Resolution of Respect

BY Hightown Sunday School BIZ
BILE class.
In memory of Russell Hevener our
beloved brother and classmate, who
shed his blood and gave his life on
the battle field for our protection.
Inasmuch as it has been thewill ofthe
dom to take to himself our beloved
brother and classmate, the son and,
brother of ]. Wesley Hevener and
family, and, ....
Whereas j. Wesley Hevener and
family are true membrs Of the High
town Sunday school, we do hereby eX
press our sympathy and tender con-
lolence to J. Wesley Hevener, and
we feel that a father and mother,
sisters and brothers sorrow for the
loss of a beloved son and brother can
not be assuaged by ordinary condo
lencs, but there is one thought that
should soften the sorrowunder such
a bereavement It is the reflection
that your precious son and brothr
is now a treasure laid up in better
world, and the gate through which
he has passed to peace and joy I'M
speakable is left open SO that you in
due time may follow. Let this be
your consolation.
Lastly, as proof of our respect to
]. Wesley Hevener and family, that
a copy of these resolutions be sent to
the bereaved ones, and copy to the
Highland Recorder for publication.
