MEAT CANNING
AMOUNTING
Demonstration Held at Farm
of Joe Masten, Masten's
Corner on February 2S
HOME CANNING SAVING

A group of interested persons
visited the farm Of Joe Masten,
Masten's Cornerfi on Tuesday af-
ternoon, February 28th, to see the
demonstration held there on meat
cutting and canning Knowing how
interested people are in all sugges-
tions of economy at the present
time, Mr.. Masten who had just
butchered a beef weighing 365
pounds dressed weight) demon
strated the cutting up of the beef
for canning purposes. Questions
were answered regarding the tough
and tender pieces Of meat and the
correct methods of cooking each
given. The tough muscular pieces
often contain a most delicious flaw
or and with long SLOW cooking
make excellent meat dishes at a
very low cost and any of the cheap
cuts make delicious soup stock and
stews. The preservation of this
meat was then demonstrated by
Miss Pearl Macdonald, Nutrition
Specialist from Newark. Some of
the best cuts of meat We're packed
in quart tins as small roasts.
Steaks were cut into serving por-
tions and scared before packing.
Stew pieces and soup stock were
packed uncooked into the tins The
pressure cooker was recommended
as being the ideal way of process
ing the meat. The high tempera-
ture obtained assures complete
preservation and shortens the pro-
cess by over half the time, thus
saving fuel. At market prices the
beef on hoof would have sold for
approximately $3.50. At the
present retail prices for meat the
beef was worth $4560. The can
ming equipment and fuel costs were
$2.25 so the saving on the whole
was S20.50. Half of
the beef only was canned and Mrs.
Masten has stored on her pantry
shelf 38 quarts of meat put up in
steaks, roasts, stews and soup
stock. ready at very short notice
to serve her family or unexpected
guests. This meeting was arrang-
ed by Miss Louise r. Whitcomb,
Home Demonstration Agent. MINI

Attractions at Strand Theatre

Today and Thursday-It is with
a great deal of enthusiasm that Me
and My GAL" the Fox comedy-ro-
nance will be greeted when it be-
gins an engagement here today.
Joan Bennett and Spencer Tracy,
who have not appeared together in
a picture since they were co-fea-
tured in "She Wanted a Million
aire," enact the leading roles and
both give refreshing characterize
tions. Me and My GAL" depends,
for the greater part, on its comedy.
The dialogue is truly amusing and
a few of the situations are of side
splitting quality. Miss Bennett and
Mr.. Tracy are supported by a cast
that includes many favorites.
Splendid work is done by J. Farrell
Macdonald in the role of the ire
pressible father, Marion Burns as
Miss Benefits sister, George
Walsh as the escaped convict, Hen
ry B. Walthall as the paralytic,
and Noel Madison in one Of the
crook roles for which he is famous.
Friday and Saturday Taking
the main issue of the day out of
the hands Of the politicians and
presenting it on the screen for the
hilarious amusement of the movie
going public is just what Buster
Keaton and Jimmy Durante, with
the stammering assistance of Ros-
coe Ates, have done in their new
comedy, What. No Beer?" In
addition to Ates there is Phyllis
Barry, who recently appeared op-
posite Ronald Colman in "Cynara;"
John MILAN, Henry Armetta, Ed
ward Brophy, Sidney Bracy, James
Donlan and Al Jackson. Ates, de-
spite his suffering speech, is a
great help to Buster and "Schnoz-
zola" in this comedy on the beer
question. Buster and Jimmy run
a brewry and Roscoe Ates is their
chief brewmaster. Ates makes the
beer SO potent that police complica-
tions ensue and the whole pack of
comedians is marched to Jail

DRY PROTESTS
Told By Drys That Bill for

GOV. DEFERS HIS ACTION

Dry leaders of the State Thurs
day afternon called upon Governor
C.Douglass Buck to protest against
his signing a bill that has been
passed by the General Assembly
amending the Loose law by remov-
ing all restrictions on the amount
of liquor and beer an individual
anywhere in the State may have in
his possession providing it is for
personal use and not for sale. In
the delegation were Horace G East
burn, of Wilmington; the Rev. ]. L.

bart, district superintendent of the
Middletown and Dover Districts re-
spectively, of the Wilmington lie.
Conference; John B. Hutton and
James H. Hughes, of Dover; Sena-
tor Ernest " Keith, of Dover, and
Mrs. Anna Waller, of Delmar, pres
ident of the State w. C. T. u.
They told the Governor they
thought the bill unfair in that it
forces people living in dry districts
something upon which they have
not had an opportunity to express
their opinion. Under the Loose
law now possession in Sussex. Kent
and rural New Castle Counties is
limited to one quart of liquor and
one dozen pint bottles of beer. This
bill would remove these limitations
and make it possible for anyone
living in these districts to have all
the liquor and beer they wanted.
It would also make it possible for
them to have shipped into dry ter
ritory such liquor or for them to
take it in themselves in any
amount. 1t would further prohibit
the searching of private homes for
liquor. Governor Buck did not
sign the bill that day He said he
has not had an opportunity to read
it yet. No indication as to what
his action will be on the bill

walking along the streets, coming

courteous, and never a whine out
of them. | know of one old actor
who must be close to seventy. He
never was really a star, but he
played prominent parts in support
of stars and made good money.
During these days, he bought lit
tie place down by the shore. Now
he lives there. He speaks Of it as
his country home: says he is stay
ing there until he accepts a part
again.
Actually, it is small two-room
shack, unpainted and forlorn. In
one room is an old four-post bed.
an antique table, and a chair Of
good design which needs repairs
On the walls are signed theatrical
photographs. old programs, a stage
dagger The table holds a book in
soft leather binding, the last relic
Of a library. The back room has
a sink, an oil stove, and a round
iron stove fitted for coal, if there
is any, but which also can be made
to burn driftwood. There is an old
china cup, saucer, and plate; a tin
cup; a frying pan; a coffee-pot.
There are two up-to-date appliances
in evidence. One is an electric light
bulb, suspended from the ceiling by
an insulated wire; the other Is
telephone.
Except on the occasions when he
appears in town, that telephone is
the old actors chief link with the
outside world. Its number is in the
book. If you call it, the owner will
answer in his polished. courtly
voice. He will explain that. from
motives of economy. he has had to
let "his man" 90. Hearing that
voice, you will vision the owner as
paneled room, with a deep rug on
the polished floor and draperies at
the windows. You will vision him
so-if you don't know better. Never
a whimper, never complaint. But
the chances are that some day a
friend will call that number, and
the telephone will ring and ring.
The old-timer will have been given
a new role-a permanent part, be-
fitting a fine actor and a gallant
gentleman.
Many of the New York theaters

SUBSTITUTE URGED
FOR GOLD CLAUSE
Ways to Reassure Lenders
Studied by Leading Finan-
CiaI Minds.
BY CHAS. p. SCHAEFFER.
Associated Press Business Writer.

Some of Americas best financial
minds are trying to devise a sub
stitute for the gold clause now stricken
out of contractural agreements.
Periodic bank statements establish
that for one reason or another no
substantial sum of money Is being
loaned to industry. In like manner,
the record of new security flotations.
as registered with the Federal Trade
Commission, consists mainly OF alcohol
issues, with a sprinkling of mining
shares, the latter considered the out
growth of the recently established
domestic market for newly-mined gold.
With the abrogation of the gold
clause in contracts, bondholders cannot
make any contract which Will enable
them to receive anything but legal
tender. Any contract to pay interest
and principal in gold would have no
weight in the United States, while 1t
would be equally useless in foreign
lands
One suggestion toward deyising a
substitute for the gold clause already
has been made. The idea has been
advanced that long term contracts. for
SO years or more, should have an index
number clause. This, 1t Is contended,
would make them fair to borrowers and
lenders alike.
Those who advocate such a substi-
tute declare it would automatically
insure that both the burden and the
return. in terms of real values. would
be identical throughout the whole
period Of the loan.
Certain Government officials believe
that unless some means can be devised
of safeguarding the lender there will
be tendency feg the lenders to COM
pensate themselves ~ their increased
risks BY demanding higher interest
rates from would-be borrowers.

No Highway Coin
In Sight Until
Congress Quits

RALEIGH, June 9.-AlthOugh
there is little doubt that congress
will pass the bill appropriating
$400,O00,OOO for new highway
construction, of which North Car
Dina will get probably $lO,O0O,-
600 to spend on roads, there IS
rot much chance that any of this
money will become available un-
til after the present session Of
congress has adjourned, accord
ing to Chairman Z. B. Jeffress of
the state highway commission.
This means that none Of this new
construction can be started here
in North Carolina before mid
summer or early fall, even if the
bill appropriating the money,
now before the senate, is passed
before that time.
present indications are that
none of this money will be allr-
Gated to the states. regardless OF
when the bill is passed. until af5.
cr congress has adjourned and
until after most Of the federal
patronage has been passed olt,
Chairman JeffreSs said.
This additional $l0,G00,0O0 Tor
highway construction in the state
is much needed and will enable
the state to go ahead with most
Of its more necessary construc-
ton work. Jeffress said. 1t will
not only put from 5000 to 5000
additional men to work, but will
stimulate many allied industries.
This money has no strings to t,
since it is an outright grant from
the federal government to the
states. 1t can be used on both
primary and secondary road sys-
TENS and for building under
passes and overpasses inside #
city limits. It can also be used
for widening existing highways or
for recOnstructing existing high
ways.
Since most of the present fed
eral aid highway projects will be
completed by July |, under the
terms Of the old law, most Of the
highway contractors in the State
will be in good position TO bid on
this new work and start on it
very soon after that date, JEFF
frcss said.

ed for by the state corporation

the telephone companies in the
state are maintaining that they
cannot reduce their rates at this
time. and the two large cOmpan-
ies-the Southern Bell and the

maintain that they cannot even
reduce the charges for the French
style hand sets unless they are
permitted TO increase their
charges somewhere else.
The telephone companies are,
of course, putting up hard fight
against any reduction anywhere,
Commissioner WinbOrne sal d.
However, they are submitting
an itemized invoice Of their prop
erty and equipment on June Is,
which the commission expects to
study. From what we have been
able to gather so far, most of the
telephone companies have been
charging off more to depreciation

going to make a particular study
Of this angle Of the matter.
CAS- to the extra charge made
for the hand sets, we feel that
these charges can either be ma
terially reduced or eliminated.
The telephone companies main
tain that if they do not make this
extra charge, they will then have
to put in this new equipment for
every subscriber and hence be
forced to Junk millions of dollars
