200 Teeth Taken
From Mouth
Of Patient

KANSAS CITY, Mo. 0NS).
One Of the rarest occurrences
in dental history was recorded
here when a dentist extracted
more than 200 teeth from a
patients mouth.
Only one or two other such
cases have ever been recorded.
The teeth were all very small,
some about the size Of q grain
of rice. The dentist explained
they were the remainder Of an
embryological formation which
did not disappear at birth.
Another unusual angle in the
case was the growth Of a nor
NAL sized tooth about midway
in the roof Of the patients
mouth. This, too, was ex-
tracted, leaving the patient
with a normal set Of teeth,
all Of normal size.

CONNERY BACKS
30-HOUR BILL
IN HOUSE
Labor Committee Head to In
troduCe Measure; Sure of
Black Senate Success
By International News Service

by International News Service
The 30-hour week issue will be
placed squarely before the Ad.
ministration, Representative Con.
merry (DO Of Massachusetts,,
chairman Of the House Labor
Committee, announced today. He
said:
'"The bill which I introduced
win automatically 90 to de-
partments for . report"
Certain in Senate
Despite the action Of the House
In amending the discharge rule
to require signatures Of 218 mem.
bers instead Of 145 as heretofore,
to a petition to bring a bill to the
floor over objection Of leaders,
Representative Connery said the
fight will go on.
"Fhe Senate will pass the 80
hour week bill Of Senator Black
Of Alabama, and then 1t will be
before the House. If there is
enough sentiment, it will be
voted upon. It depends largely
upon how vigorous a campaign
labor makes"
Representative Connery's bill,
which is similar to the Black bill,
was drafted last spring after a
conference with Secretary Of La
Dor Perkins, Donald r. Richberg
and President William Green Of
the American Federation Of La
Dor.
While Miss Perkins and Mr..
Richberg aided in the draft, they
did not approve Of the bill.
Raps the Codes
Under both measures, industry
would be required to pay the same
wages for a 3Q-hour week that
they now pay. The Connery bill
would grant an exemption for a
90-day period only, and during
that period the maximum would
be 40 hours. Representative Con.
merry said:
"T haven't any faith in the
NRA-the administration Of the
codes is terrible"
He; abandoned proposals to re-
quire a 30-hour week under the
codes. He would give the President
authority to embargo foreign
goods if the 30-hour week places
American manufacturers at a dis.
advantage.

First Aid
Extra Supply
Of Food

Every home-maker should
have an emergency shelf of
foods just as surely as she
should have an extra supply
Of linens, towels and bedding.
I prefer to call 1t a "firSt
aid" shelf. Somehow the word,
emergency, throws me in a
panic, while first aid" gives
that feeling of security that
when called upon the shelf can
produce in a moments notice.
It Is not necessary to have
rows and rows Of things, espe-
cially If storage space is at a
premium. But even while living
in q small apartment, room
can be found in the linen or
clothes closet shelves for a few
choice and selected cans Of
food.
REPLACEMENTS
Those who are blessed with
ample space will take great
delight in keeping a variety of
things. AS you use from this
supply, don't forget to replen-
iSh it.
How often have you wanted
to ask some friend who had
dropped in for tea, or an after
moons chat, to stay for dinner,
yet felt that the planned menu
was not one for company.
The addition of a creamed
soup, an extra vegetable and
some fruit or dessert will dress
up the simplest meal.
ALWAYS NEEDED
Here are a few things which
we suggest that you tuck away
for the unexpected guest, the
hurry.up dinner or the regular
meal when the budget is low.
Canned soups, Standa ard
brands, at least two of Of your
favorite varieties.
Canned vegetables, baked
beans, spaghetti, chili-con-carne,
chicken q Ia king.
Bottle canned cherries, grape
Juice, grapefruit juice, tomato
Juice. ...
Jellies, reliSheS.
Canned corn beef, creamed
chicken.
French and other prepared
dressings.
Prepared gingerbread, or
cake, in cans.
Extra packages of crackers
and assorted cakes.

Sauerkraut

Cabbage sauerkraut is one of
our most nutritious foods and
is also an inexpensive simple
method of preservation. Miss
Margaret McPheeters. nutrition
specialist Of the University Of
Maryland Extension Service, has
given this method Of making
this popular food.
To prepare this deNcacy so
that all Of the delicious and ap-
petizing qualities are obtained.
Miss McPheeters first advises
the selection Of good. firm heads
of cabbage. After the outer
leaves, bad spots, and cores have
been removed the cabbage is
shredded and is ready to be put
into the jar or keg in which it
will ferment.
The bottom and sides Of the
jar or keg are lined with the
larger leaves before the shredded
cabbage is put in. Every three
inch layer of cabbage Is Sprin.
kled with from four to five
tablespoonsful Of salt and 1t
may be well to distribute salt
throughout the shredded cab
bage before it Is put into the
container. Approximately one
fourth of a pound Of salt Is
added to every five pounds Of
cabbage.
This procedure is followed
until the container is almost
full. The top is then covered
with large cabbage leaves, and
a broad board that fits down in
side Of the keg or jar Is put on.
This is held down with q heavy
weight or rock, although lime.
stone or sandstone should not
be used as the acid produced
will attack these materials, de-
stroying the keeping quality Of
the brine.
The cabbage should be kept
well covered with brine at all
times and the scum should be
removed at various times. The
temperature Of the room should
be kept at SO degrees for two
weeks, after which the container
should be removed to a cooler
place. II the kraut is not to be
canned or used soon the con-
tainer should be covered with a
heavy layer Of paraffin, or well
sealed. In warm weather kraut
may be cured in 8 to 10 days.
The Washington times., 1935-10-04
Possibilities

Potato chips offer possibilities
for tid-hits. Mixing equal parts
of Philadelphia cream cheese
and anchovy paste moistened
with lemon and spreading on
the chips add a different flavor.
Clipped beef is splendid. Cut
the dried beef into three-inch
strips, spread with Salted cot
tage cheese seasoned with q bit
of onion juice, and roll as a
cigarette.
Smoked salmon blended with
cream cheese, seasoned well and
piled on canape waters is very
tasty.
If you have either fresh or
canned lobster on hand, cut into
small lengths, wrap in bacon
strips, fasten ends with tooth
pick and broil. Serve piping
hot.
Mixing the contents of large
can of sardines in spiced to-
mato sauce, that have been
drained and mashed fine, with
a medium-sized onion chopped
very fine, 2 tablespoons Of
green pepper and u teaspoon
each OF salt and pepper with
a dash Of vinegar, makes a
nice combination to spread on
toast rounds.
For canapeS made from
chicken, mix the prepared
paste with sweet relish. Spread
on canape cracker, sprinkle
with grated egg yolk and top
with the slice Of stuffed
olive.

Standardized

All recipes today call for
standardized m eaSure m entS,
and if your cake fails and your
biscuits turn out badly, it may
be due to inaccurate measuring.
Recipes that our mothers used
called for butter the size of an
egg, rounded tablespoons and
flour enough to make nice stiff
ness.
Today we have standardized
measuring cups and measuring
spoons. These are not expensive
and the good results coming
from their use will repay their
cost.

InnOUGtiOn

Stick biscuits with rum filling
are a bit richer but are sold for
the cocktail hour. Cocktail ker-
nels made from toasted, salted,
soy beans are a recent innova-
tion.
Pastes made from fish, rogue
fort cheese or ham are convent
ent in making these dainty ap-
petizers.
For decorating your cocktail
tray, olives stuffed with almond
or very finely chopped celery or
anchovieS always add distinc-
ton.
Small cubes of avocado pears
rolled in cheese are possibilities
for the center decoration poised
on the point of bright tooth
picks. Also small picked onions
rolled in pistachio nuts or cubes
of spiced watermelon preserves
may be used.
If you don't have a tray try
using for your center decoration
a deep red thick-meated tomato,
in bed of watercreSs. Then
use squares of piquant favored
cheese on toothpicks arranged
over it.
A novel type Of canape is
made from ham spread. Mold
the seasoned spread in the
shape of small pears and roll in
red granulated sugar. Use
strips Of green maraSchino
cherry for the stem. The
flavors blend nicely and look
like candied fruit.
The Washington times., 1935-10-04

Manufacturers this fall seem
to have "outdone" themselves
in the type of cracker offered.
The canape toasts may be had
in a dozen varieties, some Of
them having centers shaped as
boats or of animals of different
kinds. Another type of canape
toast is cut in the shape of dia-
monds, hearts, clubs and spades.
The crackers not only come
in an endless variety of sizes
but also are now offered in an
assortment of materials. Celery
chips are good. Many corn
waters made from toasted stone
ground cornmeal beaten thin
and Salted are to be found. jap
