Plan Broached To Have LuncheOn Clwbs Of Birmingham Handle Project
 On a trip away from the city some time ago President D. M. McLendon of the city commission was impressed by the numbers of drinking fountains he saw in several cities.

 Financing the matter will be dis cussed with the clubs with the idea in mind that the organizations pay the first cost and the city the maintain ance.

STUDEBAKER CARS ARRIVE

A solid trainload of Studebaker
cars. consisting of 120 Light-StXes,
has lust been shipped from the big
Studebaker factories at South Bend,
Indiana, to the Studebaker Sales
Company of Newark, N. j.
This shipment is unusual In two
resuects. First-the entire 12O cars
have been sold at retail and will be
delivered to waiting buyers Just as
soon as unloaded. And second-it
IA believed 1t represents the largest
shipment to one dealer of a single
model of car in the $1,000 class ever
made by a manufacturer.
This gives fresh evidence of the
insistent demand for the Studebaker
Light-Six that exists in the metro
politan district of the east Just as
it does throughout the country.
1T is not surprising that these ex-
perieneed metropolitan motor car
buyers should create a tremendous
demand for the Studebaker Light
Six according to J. Arthur Apple
gate, local Studebaker dealer.
ITO the majority of these %purchas-
ers, price is a secondary considera-
ton. They demand a quality motor
car-rugged construction, depend
ability. reliable performance,
thorough comfort and handsome ap-
pearance.
The territory covered by the
Newark dealers includes many of
the fashionable suburbs of New
York City. Thousands of New York
business men make their homes just
ACROSS the Hudson River in the New
Jersey suburbs which constitute one
OF the most discriminating automo-
bile markets in the world"

CLUBS FOR BOYS AND GIRLS
Products Exhibited and Methods
Shown Which Enabled Young
People to Succeed.

Teams Of young Iowa farmers and
future home makers gave demonstra-
tions in II booths in the boys and
girls clubs building at the interstate
fair at Sioux City, Iowa, last Septem-
ber Through the cooperation Of the
extension services of II participating
states, the fair association, and the
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture, not only were club products ex-
hibited. but representative teams
showed the methods which had en-
abled them to succeed In winning the
highest ranks among the 10000 club
members in all the North Central
states participating.
They demonstrated butter and
cheese making, caring for milk, max.
ing milk drinks; steps In successful
poultry raising; baking bread; can
ming fruit and vegetables; making
clothing carefully showing each step
of these various processes. The Il
booths illustrated II lines of club
work-corn, poultry, pigs, potatoes,
sheep. dairying, canning, home ar
rangement and decoration, bread, food
clothing and handicraft. The value Of
club products in the II states in 1921
was S2,640,000-a striking contribu-
ton for these boys and girls to make
to the agriculture of their states.

Thick-skinned, pulpy fruit will be light
when tested in the hand. A pineapple
should be heavy and Its center leaves
easily removed, to prove its ripeness.
Bananas may be purchased and
ripened at home by keeping them In
paper bag. Bananas are not good food
when firm and crisp. The skin may be
black. but If the fruit is still mellow,
not soft or mushy. they are in fine con-
dition for eating. Fruit kept In the

An attractive way of serving bana-
mas Is to peel them at the end and,
using a potato cutter, cut the fruit Into
balls; drop into dish with little
lemon juice and mix well, but lightly.
then sprinkle with sugar; add little
pineapple juice or few cubes of pine
apple, some maraschino cordial and a
cherry or two to garnish the top of the

single drop of spilled milk or a parti-
Gle of neglected food will contaminate
a refrigerator in few days.
Sometimes, in very hot weather, in
spite of all precautions, milk sours
quickly, even in the refrigerator. This
Is often due to the fact that the air
OF the refrigerator, although cool in
contrast with the heat outside, is
really not cold enough to check the
growth of the bacteria In the milk. If
a thermometer placed inside registers
more than 90 degrees F. the fault can
not be laid entirely to the quality of
the milk.
Milk should be kept covered to ex-
clude not only dirt and bacteria but
also fiavors and odors, which it read
lily absorbs. 1t should be kept away
from foods of strong odor, such as
onions, cabbage or fish. Bottled milk
should be kept in the bottle in which
1t Is delivered until needed for use.
Serving milk on the table In the orig
inal bottle is sanitary. The mouth Of
the bottle should be cleaned carefully
before the milk is poured from 1t, and
only what is needed for immediate use
should be poured out. The bottle
should be kept covered with paper
cap or an inverted tumbler as long as
there is milk in it. New milk should
never be mixed with old unless 1t Is to
be used at once; the old milk Is likely
to contain larger number of bacteria.

Prepare a single crust for this pie by
rolling the dough for it on the outside
of an inverted pietin which has been
lightly busted with flour beforehand.
When baked for five minutes this shell
may be slipped off and placed inside
the pietin, ready for the filling. This
is good way to prepare perfectly
smooth and well-fitting lower crust for
pies which are to hold liquid or semi
liquid filings. Add the filling. Place
in hot oven until filling just bubbles.

PROMISING PLACES FOR
OIL IN MOFFAT COUNTY

Early in August, 1928, high grade
oil wa encountered in well drilled
by the Texas Production company, on
an ant llinal fold known as the Ham
lton dome, about 13 miles south of
Craig, Moffat county, Colorado. The
oil was found at depth of about
5000 feet in beds that lie about 5000
feet below the top of the Maneos
shale, and its presence there was not
suspected, for the beds that seem to
hold the most promise for oil lie near
the base of the Mancos shale, 2,2O0
to 2,500 feet deeper. The possible
amount and value of the oil is not yet
known, but even if the oil found is not
sufficient in quantity to be of com
mercial value its occurrence naturally
inspires hope that oil in greater guam
tity may be found in deeper beds, both
in the Hamilton dome and in other
anticlnes in Moffat county.
Parts of Moffat county were mapped
during lHt summers OIL lJSl ana lJS1
by a party of the Geological survey,
department of the interior, under the
direction of j. d Sears, who is now
preparing n report on the area. This
report shows that about miles south
west of Hamilton dome there is anoth-
cr dome which in some respects is even
more attractive than Hamilton dome
as place to search for oil, and that
these two domes are apparently more
favorable for oil than any other anti
clinal folds in the area studied by Mr..
Sears party.
The Mancos shale, of Upper Cretace-
oud age, caps both the Hamilton dome
and the seeping Spring Gulch dome,
rs the dome miles southwest of Ham
ilton dome is called. This shale is
