proved the case that the destruction
of records has been several times
more costly than the destruction OF
a big office building or mercantile
plant and the loss of the records
necessitated firms going entireiy
out of business because they coulo
not resume without it's bookkeeping
and other data showing where the
business stood before the visitation
of the flames.
The rapidly growing bulk OF
records long ago made the heaVV,
walled iron safe, with its cramped
interior, impractical. So, tnln
walled safes, and even steel filing
cabinets without insulation. were
introduced and widely heralded as
"fire-proof."
That iron safes with walls from
two to six inches thick; filing CAB.

walls; vault doors of unprotected
sheet steel; and containers with put

their thin walls could all be equally

while steel will not burn. the

And frequently records are reduced
to useless ashes-incinerated behind

Further, safes OF the period were
shown by experience to depreclate

There are now many types OF

device that is uncanny in its

RESISTING
RECORD SAFE
IMPERATIVE
New Type Solves Vital Prob
lem of Protecting Valua-
Bile Documents

The importance Of having ade-
Quate fireproof protection for valu-
able records is tcoay emphasized
on the Personnel Classification
Board of the Federal Government
which has on its hands documents
containing the salary ratings OF
$4,000 Government employees with
no proper means of safeguarding
them from flames. The question of
safe archives for these classified
ton ratings is considered vital to
Federal employees and Is giving the
board members a great deal OF
serious concern.
Not only are the records exposed
to fire hazard BY reason Of the
fact that they are not filed away
In fireproof vaults. cabinets. or
other containers. but the building
in which they ara kept is q frame
structure which, it is said, probably
would prove quick and easy prey
for flames.
The concern OF Government Of
ficials over these end other invalu-
able records in Washington is prop
erly felt. Fire statistics show that
the property damage by flames in
the United States annually is APP
proxinlately $500, 0u0, 900, but that
the loss through the destruction of
valuable records. papers. documents
and data is several times that huge
amount each veal.
therefore, more and more atten-
ton is being given to the purchase
and installation of really fire-resist-
ing cabinets and ether containers
which will provide adequate pro-
lection for valuable papers and
records in the event flames sweep

Information Asked BY
Enumerators

The District school census, in

hesitancy in giving them the in

Fine for Refusal.
Parents, guardians, and other
persons having the care of children
were cautioned today by officials
to give complete information to the
enumerators when they call. The
attendance law is strict on this
point and provides penalties Of $40

The information which the enum-
orator will ask about each child
is: Full name, address, race, sex,
date and place Of birth, sshool last
attended and grade completed, also
name. address and occupation of
parent or guardian.
Census officials today asked all
persons to write down the informa-
ton needed and leave it with a
neighbor If they are to be away
when the enumerator calls. This
will eliminate the necessity for Sec
ond visits. If full cooperation is
given, it is expected to have the
census completed by the end of
September.

Electrical Cookery
Timely Desserts and Pastry
By STELLA ELIZABETH
DEEAND.

This is the berry season and one
should give ones family their fill
of desserts made from the various
berries. At the moment. strawber-
ries, blackberries, raspberries and
huckleberries supply the resourceful
housewife with wealth of dessert
variety.
Here are several recipes for berry
desserts which have tested in my
own electric range oven.
Strawberry Lady Locks.
Make a pull paste from a half
pound of butter. the sanre quantity
Of flour, two tcblospconfIls OF lemon
juice, one egg and half cupful
Of ice water. This paste should be
made the day before and left on
ice over night. The next day roll
it out very thin on a pastry board
and cut into strips an inch wide.
Butter the necessary number Of
these lady lock sticks. roll the
pastry around and around, letting
1t overlap about one-Quarter of an
inch, place on bake sheet and
bake in the electric range oven
twenty minutes at a temperature Of
400 degrees Fahrenheit.
While the locks are cooling make
a strawberry filling from one cup
full Of mashed strawberries, to
which add six tablespoonfuls Of dis
solved gelatine. half a cupful Of
sugar and one-half a teaspoonful
of lemon extract. Stir this on ice
until 1t becomes thick, and then
fold in q cupful Of whipped cream.
Fill the lady lock shells, sprinkle
with powdered sugar and serve.
Steamed Blackberry Pudding.
Cream three tablespoonfuls Of but.
ter and slowly add to this a cupful
Of sugar, the yolks of two eggs, one
cupful OF milk, two cupfuls of
flour, and two teaspoonfuls of bak-
ing powder. Mix thoroughly and
add one pint of blackberries and
after these have been thoroughly
stirred into the butter fold in the
stiffly beaten whites Of two eggs.
Butter a pudding mold. fill and
place it into a kettle Of hot water,
cover tightly and steam the pud.
ding with medium" heat in the
electric range oven for two and
half hours. Serve with hard
sauce.
HuckIeberTy Meringue Pie.
Make a pie crust and bake in
the electric range oven for eighteen
minutes. Then remove and let
the pie crust cool. Meanwhile make
a filling from q box of huckieber-
ries which have been picked over
carefully and washed. Put the ber-
ries in a saucepan with three-quar--
tiers of a cupful OF sugar and half
a cupful Of water. Place this over
medium" heat on a heater unit
of the electric range. Let the ber-
ries and sugar come to boil and
then allow them to simmer for the
remainder Of fifteen minutes. Then
thicken this with a tablespoonful
of cornstarch which has been dis
solved in cold water and let the
filling cool. When cold fill the pie
crust with the huckleberry filling,
sprinkle a little nutmeg over it and
decorate with meringe made from
the stiff1y beaten whites Of two
eggs and two tablespoonfuls Of
powdered sugar. Return the pie to
the electric range oven and brown
the meringue. Have the oven about
$50 degrees Fahrenheit Cor this.

AGRICULTURE

Certain fruit juices make good jel-
lies, while others are not commonly
considered suitable for jelly making.
Sugar acid, and pectin must be pres
ent in fairly definite proportions for
the formation of jelly. Fruit juices
that do not "jell" are usually low in
acid or pectin, or both. 1t is possible
to supply acid in the form of lemon
juice and pectin by means of home
made pectin extracts from apples or
the white peel of oranges and lemons.
The use of these pectin extracts in
small, measured amounts has several
advantages. They can be made during
the winter and used later in the spring
or summer. They enable one to make
good jelly from such fruits as rasp-
berries, Strawberries, peaches, pears,
cherries, rhubarb, and others which
are often low in natural pectin. They
shorten the cooking time of juices,
which frequently must be concentrat-
ed before they can be used for jelly
making.
Most of the pectin extracts are
lacking in pronounced flavor and do
not greatly modify the natural flavor
Of the fruits to which they are added.
The choice Of apples or citrus fruits
for making pectin extracts is largely
u matter of local convenience and ex-
pense although if it is desired to make
these extracts in the winter and store
them for use during a later season,
apple pectin extracts are preferable.
Pectin extracts should be used only
with rich, full-favored fruits which
are deficient in natural pectin or
which require concentrating before
making jelly. They should never be
used to conceal the inferiority of wat
cred juices. Detailed directions for
making and using pectin extrcts may
be obtained from the United States
Department Of Agriculture.

The Board of County Commission
ers of Worcester have just completed
as an experiment, Stag road through
the main street Of Whaleyville, dis
tance of one-half mile. The road looks
good and the people appear to be
pleased with it. If it proves satisfac-
tory the Board may construct similar
roads in the county. The cost Of con-
struction is as follows: $50 tons of
Stag, $516.9S; labor, $428.31; corri-
gated pipe, $108.67; gas and oil for
roller, $19.64 ;repair to water wagon,
81; making a total of SHASTA.
The roller was furnished gratis by
the State; the water wagon by J.
Richard Phillips, and the water by
James P. Dale. The services of Road
Engineer Morrison and these gentle
men is greatly appreciated by the
County Commissioners. 1t will be not
ed that the Stag cost far less than the
freight on it, and that is one of the
things which now makes road build
ing expensive-freight.

The officials of the Claiborne-An-
napolis Ferry are going to have new
and modern ferry steamer on the
route some time next year
Officials have been in Wilmington
going over the projected plans which
call for steamer capable of carry
ing sixty cars, with ample saloon ca
pacity, and with speed that will take
just one hour between Claiborne and
Annapolis.
The steamer is to be built especially
adapted to this route and with view
of burning oil instead of coal. 1t will
be possible to load or unload sixty
cars in very few minutes.
It is expected the boat will be built
for comfort and speed, and especially
having in view the character of bay
weather. Winter traffic will not be
interfered with as she will be able
to negotiate ice and the heaviest of
winds.
Manager Sherman was asked about
the steamer and he admitted that the
they are matched in a caontest running
to have the boat built as quickly as
possible. He says with the fast steam
er additional trips will be possible.
He is also arranging for an enlarg-
ed dining room with fully euuipped
kitchen and capable of handling large
crowds with efficiency.

AS the music was not furnished by
