Casserole, Creole, Liver Loaf, Stuffed Liver and
 Other Ways
By MARIE CLIFFORD

There is two-fold reason for serving beef iver-it not only is economical, but it also has a high food value. Beef liver, as well as the other livers, is valuable in the diet because it is blood regenerat- or, as well as an excellent source of minerals and vitamins.
 Because the use of beef liver in many homes is limited to frying, the following recipes are sug- gested: CASSEROLE OF LIVER

Dredge liver with our; place in frying pan and scar to golden brown on all sides; then put in casserole. Add thinly sliced onion and carrots, chopped celery, diced potatoes and seasoning. Pour to- matoes yer all and sprinkle with finely chopped salt pork. Cover and bake in a moderate (350 de- grees F.) oven for 2h hours. Serves six portions.
 LIVER A LA CREOLE beef liver xH.r- <-ls fnnnnnnnxVh
 2 tbsp. chopped suet
 4 tbsp. flour
 sweet pepper 2 cups canned tomatoes
 1 tsp. salt
 M tsp. cayenne pper
 s tsp. curry powder
 4 onions
 Wipe with damp cloth, skin and remove veins from liver. Cut in three quarter inch slices. Dredge with flour. Fry the chopped bacon and suet in deep saucepan, add the liver, chopped onions, pepper, and turn until the meet is thor oughly scared and coated with a rich brown gravy. Add the toma- toes and seasonings, cover closely and simmer three-quarters of an hour. Serves nVe porIloHS.

A popcorn party is enjoyed by all ages, from two to ninety.
 The eternal question, twill 1t pop% has been supplanted by the affirmation that 1t will :, if you know your corn. To-day corn al- ways pops when you SC the herm- etical1y sealed-in-the-can kernels which have just the right amount of moisture needed to make each golden kernel burst into tender snowfall.
 Certainty of popping was well nigh impossible under past market ing conditions where, on or off the cob, corn lay in the grocery store exposed to dust, germs, and at- mospheric changes. It was either too dry or too wet-rarely just right

SAFETY FIRST--A Short Story by Bob Dubois


die, had necessitated the shutting
down Of the entire uUuer- back line.
All morning Shorty twho was the
die-repair man on the upper-b back
line) had worked feverishly to elimi-
nate the defect. But somehow the
tight spot stubbornly persisted.
The foreman Of the. line had been
constantly beside Shorty, urging him
20 make haste. The department su-
perintendent, too, had been on the
scene twice, gravely observing Shor-
TVS nervous efforts. He had listened
very impatiently to Shorty's eXplana-
tens Of the difficulty, CURLY replying
that he was only interested in a
speedy resumption of, production. This
had aggravated sbQrty's. nervousness
considerably.
TOR six years Shorty had been die
/ repair man on the upper back line.
There had never been a complaint
about his work. But a few weeks ago
a "shake-up" had taken place in the
department. Several of the old fore
men were replaced by more energetic
fellows. That's hcw Jim Allen came
to be the giver OF commands on
Shorty's line. To he sure, the COM
pany incurred no loss by promoting
Allen to foremanship. Under his
vigorous" leadership production rose
all of is Der cent in four weeks, while
the working force was reduced from
80 to SO men. Occasionally there was
a faint rumble Of resentment against
Aliens prodding methods. But he
prided himself on the indomitable
manner in which he subdued anyone
who questioned his authority
There was, however, one persistent
cloud which cast it's shadow over this
brilliant performance. The time spent
for repair work on his line exceeded
considerably that of Aliens nearest
rival, the foreman on the door line.
But for this shortening, the super
intendent had told him on several &C.
castons, the upper back line would be
ranked at the head of the entire de-
partment. So jim Allen resolved to
sweep this final obstacle aside at any
cost. And Shorty henceforth became
an object of particular attention to
the determined foreman.
AT times Shorty felt burning de-
sire to let his bony fist make a swift
journey to the ambitious foreman's
acquiKne nose. Only the thought OF
the inevitable consequences withheld
his ever-itching hand. Had he been
but %, unmarried and free from his
present heavy responsibilities, he
wouldn't have stood it another day,

Motors were humming now. Belts
whiIred back and forth. twisting
through the air like snakes, and
countless wheels began turning
around and around with ever increas-
ing speed. The huge presses vibrat-
ed from the velocity Of tiletr enor-
nous fywhesls and looked like gap
ing monsters, hungry for their prey
Of steel.
Shorty returned to the upper back
draw press and prepared himself with
tight-set lips to renew his battle with
the defect in the die.
Again the whistle blew. now a short
fsharp commanding note. The awak-
ening was complete. A roaring dta-
bolics1 din commenced. Presses
started rumbling on their up and
downward, down and upward course.
crushing, cutting, piercing the crunch
ing metal sheets into the desired
shape. Power hammers battered upon
the vibrating panels with the noise
of a thousand machine guns. Myriads
OF cracking sparks poured like a fiery
flood over the masked form of the
man operating the big Welding ma
chine. The crane operator, in his
lordly position in the crane control
cabin overhead, was uninterruptedly
changing the warning bell, to attract
the attention Of those below to the
mass Of sharp edged steel sheets, dan
cling dangerously over their heads.
But everybody seemed too preoccu-
pied to heed his warning.
Shorty reassuUed himself that the
wooden safety block was inserted be-
tween the upper and lower part Of
the press. Then, taking a file out Of
his tool box, he proceeded to wriggle
his stocky form inside the open die.
The iron walls of the die almost en-
tirely hid him from view. Only one Of
his legs prouuded over the side, shak-
ing systematically from the exertion
of filing.
The awkwardness OF his position
produced a terrific strain on every
muscle. Lying on his back in the
cavity Of the die, he was compelled
TO stiften his head and body against
the lower part Of the die while filing
with outstretched hands on the die
punch above him. Little particles Of
steel, produced by the file, were con-
stantly falling over his face, and he
was forced to turn his head aside in
order to prevent the steel dust from
filling his eyes. 1t mixed with the
sweat which soon began trucking
down his cheeks producing an al
most unbearable irritation.

not even another minute. As it was.
he was gradually getting old and
worn, past A already-and there
would be little likelihood Of finding
another job very quickly.
The automobile manufacturers were
daily becoming more reluctant to hire
a man who had left his fortieth win
ter behind. Should ne be out Of a
job, what was to become Of his two
edored young ones, now among the
brightest students of their class at
high school? He hoped to let Jack,
the older one, enter university next
year, to take a course for NJ. D. Then
too, there was the mortgage on the
little fiye-room bungalow, which de-
manded prompt, unfailing payments.
No, he could not jeopardize all this
for the shOrt-lived pleasure Of plas-
tering the nossy and cabling Allen
in the Snout.
Small wonder Shorty was unable to
enjoy the tasty lunch so carefully
prepared by his wife He dreaded the
prospect Of another few hours Of eX-
tremely difficult labor in the press,
under the uncomfortable gaze OF the
cursed foreman. If he could only file
that stubborn tight spot away in a
hurry!
Presently Shorty abandoned his
half-hearted attempts to force the
food into his unwilling stomach. He
put the remainder of the sandwich
back into the lunchbox, closed it and
rose with a painful grimace. Walk
ing over to the press where lay the
cause Of his grief he placed the
lunehbox on the ground beside the
machine and looked reflecttyely at the
yawning opening, into which he was
soon to crawl once more to resume
his painful task.
A DEAFENING, piercing whistle
~ rent the air, boring into every
nook and corner Of the building, cut
ting through the space in the aGsles
and stabbing fiercely at the doing
men and lifeless machines. Rudely
It shook them out Of the usual noon
hour lethargy. Then it died out lin
geringly, retreating into the void out
side. New life was left in its wake.
Thousands of electric bulbs bathed
everything in a flood of bright yell
low light. Men began walking to and
fro. Some were slipping into torn
and dirty overalls; others pulled on
their oily gloves. Here an empty
truck was being pushed in its required
place beside a press; there a truck
load Of panels was moved on to the
next machine.
