Economy will be stressed by Mrs.
Myra Oliver Dougan, in her series
Of five cooking school lectures TO
be held at the high school cafeteria

Mrs. Dougan contends that IL
doesn't take a wonderful cook TO go
out and buy the most expensive
items and then go home and pre-
pare a delicious meal. The true
secret of culinary art is to take sup
posedly inferior cuts OF meats,
vegetables. reasonably priced. and
then prepare a meal that will make

tice. She has acknowledged author
ity on the preparation of delectable
meals at a moderate cost. This is
something that every housewife is
interested in. Think of the thrill Of
cutting down the family budget
without impairing the quality or the
deliciousness Of the meals.
Variety in cooking is another of
the terets in Mrs. Dougan's teach
ings. Nothing grows so monotonous
as the boarding house" meals. It
is stated BY educators that monot-
ony Is one Of the leading causes Of
breaches in family life. 1t goes
without saying that the knowledge
on the part Of the family that they
ian count on the same old things
on specific nights Of each week will
not tend to harmony in the home.
Mrs. Dougan has hundreds of new
recipes giving the latest scientific
angle TO the preparation OF foods.
Not only will her teachings include
the preparation Of new dishes but
she will give in detail new WAYS of
fixing the old standbys that will be
a revelation to the women in her
audiences.
Mrs. Dougan is particularly anx-

there is no fruit available on ac-

But it is ready to start operations
today. the test Monday afternoon
having proved that the machinery is
all in good trim. and the plant
finished and ready for operations.
The plant here is a little larger
in size than n Of the others in
the Valley. being 90 by 126 feet,
but the machinery has the same ca
pacity as the Sharyland plant, about
six carloads in a l0-hour day, run

To Employ Is
A force Of about fifteen persons
will be employed at the plant, and
practically all of this force has been

markets of the Atlantc coast, accord
ing to II. J.. Caul, broker and COM
