VARIETY is KEY
TO GOOD MENU
BroiIed Grapefruit Recipe
Offered by Chef.

Even if some of the same foods
are served every day, the house
wife should see to 1t that they are
prepared in a different way. II a
man gets half chilled grapefruit
one morning, give him broiled
grapefruit next day. The secret of
getting people, billiards as well as
bright ones, to enjoy their meals
is to keep the menu varied.
This is the advice of Frank Hoff-
statter, head waiter of the Hotel
Biltmore, New York, supper room,
who started his restaurant career
by serving King Edward VII when
he was Prince of Wales, at the
Compleat Anglers Club in England.
Rice, for Example
Think of all the different ways
woman could cook rice" Mr..
Hoffstatter suggested. 1T might be
plain one day, have tomatoes and
peppers in it and be called Spanish
rice the next, be cooked in chicken
broth and favored with saffron and
come to the stable as Italian risotto.
Same with nearly every other food, .
lie advised.

have the same Identical foods so

CHOCOLATE SOUFFLE
MAKES PARTY DISH
Frozen Treat Easily Made,
Well Received.

Frozen chocolate souffle is a party
dish of which any woman might be
proud If she were able to announce
that she had made it herself. This
recipe is from the chef of the VAN
derbilt Hotel, New York:
Use double Souffle cases OF card
board, plain one that fits inside
a fancy one. (The stores have them,
and they are not expensive.) The
ingredients are half pint each of
chocolate ice cream and chocolate
paste, d quart of cream whipped
firm, four ounces of powdered sugar
and a teaspoon of vanilla extract.
Mix in this order. Place in souffie
cases and freeze. Before filling the
cases fasten paper bands around the
plain ones, an inch higher than edge
of case, and fill to the top of these
bands. Before serving remove these
extra bands and place inside fancy
cases. The bullying top gives the
appearance of hot souffle.

JUICES, FLAVOR
MAKE MEAT OF
L0IN CHOP BEST
Rib and Shoulder Cuts Next
in Ranking for
DeSirabiIity.

The loin pork chop is the choic-
est, containing, as it does, the ten
derioin on the underside of the
bone. Not only is it juicy, tender
and of excellent flavor, but there's
less waste in bone and fat than in
other pork chop cuts. For these
reasons, loin chops usually are
somewhat higher in price than the
rib and shoulder chops.
Next in desirability is the rib
chop, juicy and of good flavor but
minus the tenderloin on one side of
the bone.
Then comes the shoulder chop,
which is larger but of darker-col-
ored meat and with more bone.
The rib and loin chop can be
cut single or double. Double chops
are especially nice for stufing and
baking. On account of the thick
ness of the meat, they take longer
to cook than single chops.
Always cook all pork products at
low temperature.
How to Grease Skillet
Planned chops are cooked in the
frying pan on top of the stove. Trim
off enough fat from the edges of the
chops to lightly oil the frying pan.
In other words, rub the bit of fat
over the surface of the pan until it
looks very shiny but there is no sur
plus of fat. Add chops and sea-
lightly first on one side and then
on the other. Sprinkle salt and
pepper on both sides after soaring,
allowing about a teaspoon salt for
each CHOPS teaspoon to a side.
Now cover the spider, reduce heat
and cook slowly until done, about
20 minutes for single chops and 80
minutes for double ones.
When a meal is built around pork
chops, it's a good idea to include
one vegetable in cream sauce un-
less there is milk gravy. Creamed
celery is good vegetable to serve
with pork. Use the coarse outer

stalks for cooking and save the

stalks for cooking and save the
tender hearts for relish next day.
Stuffed Pork Chops
Choose double chops for stuffing
and make a slit through the center,
toward the bone, with sharp
knife. Rub each chop with one
half teaspoon salt, one-eighth tea
spoon pepper and one-eighth tea
spoon mustard thoroughly mixed.
Place two tablespoons sage stuffing
in each chop and fasten cut edges
with wooden toothpicks If tiny
SkewerS are not at hand. Scar in
hot frying pan for 10 minutes.
Cover closely and bake in a moder-
ate oven for one hour, $50 degrees
F. is good temperature to main
tain during the baking.
Add to this twice baked sweet po-
tatoes, creamed celery, jellied to-
mato salad and apple snow with
custard sauce some cold January
evening.
For twice baked sweet potatoes
scrub and bake in their skins as
usual. Then cut in halves length
wise and scoop out pulp. Mash and
season well with salt and pepper
and lots of butter, adding cream if
too dry. Beat until very light and
fluffy and beat in one tablespoon
sherry to two cups of mashed po-
tato. Fill shells with mixture and
return to oven to make very hot.

SCIENCE BLASTS
STRANGE IDEAS
REGARDING FOOD
Research Proves That Many
Peoples Superstitions
Are GroundIeSs.

Many OF our pet superstitions
about foods, cooking methods and
digestibility' are being shattered by
scientific Investigations and re-
search.
There are, Of course, some per-
sons with whom certain foods do
not agree. When this is discovered
one should by all means avoid
those foods. But sometimes the
idiosyncrasy is not real but fan
cied.
Persons who are in normal
health and DO not over-indulge
may enjoy almost any palatabld
combination with no misgivings.
Fish, Milk Harmonic
All authorities now agree that
fish and milk ARE in perfect har-
mony, like all simple, wholesome
foods" I quote from an article on
this subject by famous physician
and dietitian.
The taste of food is no guide
to its final reaction in the body
Tor 1t Is only after the system has
made use of its fuel that the ma
tire of the ash can be determined.
Some foods after being digested and
utilized by the body have an acid
reaction in the blood and others
are alkaline. But you can't tell by
the taste. Thus although lemons
are sour because of the organic
acids they contain, their effect is
alkaline. Apples, muskmelons,
oranges and potatoes have been
found experimentally to be very
efficient in reducing body acidity.
The practice of eating acid
foods in the same meal with milk
or of using milk or cream on fruits
has been condemned. However, the
acid is actually help rather than
hlndrance to milk in digestion. 1t
Is common practice to beat orange
or lemon juice or tomato Juice into
milk or to sour milk artificially for
persons with weak digestion.
Eat Hot Pastries Carefully
Pancakes, waffles, mullins and
hot breads of all varieties are not
in themselves unwholesome food.
but they have bad reputation with
many people. In the first place thew
usually are eaten without proper
mastication on account of their soft
ness. Then they often are served
with much butter and syrup and
the tendency is to eat largely to the
exclusion of more essential foods.
Finally, they are so inviting that
they cause most Of us to overeat.
Eaten in no larger amounts than
plain cold bread, with no greater
amounts Of fat and sweet, and
chewed thoroughly, they should be
as easy to digest as cold bread.
Veal is no more indigestible than
fish, chicken or beef. In France it
is given to invalids as we give
chicken in this country, yet for
years 1t has had the reputation of
being very difficult meat to digest.
OF course. the art of cooking en-
ters into this question of digesti-
bility. Improper cooking methods
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1936-04-10

can ruin the digestibility as well as
the palatableness of foods. Under
cooked starches and over heated
fats certainly are not easy for the
digestive apparatus to take care of
and in many cases it has been the
cooking of the food rather than the
food itself that has caused trouble.

him up in that game.
The biggest chance for graft is
IN being able to swing highway
contracts. On Saturday, April 18th
at about $3.50 o'clock in the after
noon, Miller invited A. G. Shone
and myself into his office in the
Placer hotel. He opened a wild
conversation. He said he had
money enough to carry on cam
paign for me for governor. l told
him l had enough to spend what
the law allowed and | intended to
spend no more. He than said: 81

port. If ! am elected governor, l
will be the governor, no one else
will" q doubt if he had ever con-
suited DR.. McGregor about such a
plan. Charlie frequently offers to
deliver men over whom he has no
controD.
That was the last l heard of
Miller until his attack on me in
the Western Progressive, run now
by him, owned doubtless by Rice
Oil Company and Pearl Insurance
Company of London.
There is one thing l wish of
Charlie Miller. He has been talk
ing for some years of himself for
governor. l wish he would pub
fish his own picture in the blank
square he has been running in the
Western Progressive, and file for
the office in the same democratic
party primary with me. He would
find out how many voters want

State out.
In another week I may find out
what the game between Miller and

CHURCHMEN TELL
OF VIOLATIONS

WASHINGTON. - Spokesman
for the Catholic, Protestant and
Jewish social welfare organizations
have appeared before the LaFol-
lette Subcommittee of the Commit
tee on Education and Labor, and
urged a comprehensive investiga-
ton of violations of civil liberties.
They made the following charges:
1. Organizations bearing ''high
sounding Names" with eminent di-
rectors are being used as masks
behind which conspiracies are be-
ing Matched to violate traditional
civil privileges of Americans.
2. A surprising number of or
CARNATIONS" are "cashing in" on
fears directed ostensibly against
Communists, but really against
freedom of speech, freedom of as
semblage, freedom of the press
and the right of collective bargain
ing.
8. There is a growing effort in
the Protestant churches to silence
ministers who engage in social
lNeacnluS.
4. The State vice chairman of
the American Legion was quoted
as saying he had dictaphones
"strategically located" arou n d
Beaumont, Texas, for a year TO
ascertain the discussions going on
in various circles, including re-
ligious groups.
S. Local governing councils were
adopting ordinances deprivlng the
workers Of the right to picket and
to discuss grievances. !.
6. Men engaged in legal activl-
ties have been 'railroaded" out OF
communities by individuals or or.

The question Of the hour, he said
is whether the Bill of Rights can
be used to secure orderly and
peaceable change. Telling Of his

NEW FIRES"
PLAYED BEFORE
LARGE AUDIENCE
Senior Class Play SplenddIy
Performed and Well Re-
ceived by Pleased Patron
age-YOung Actors Dis
tinguish Themselves
RECORD RECEIPTS

New Fires" the senior clSaS
3-act play was splendidIy perform
ed by the members of the senior
class last Friday night, May 1, at
the high school auditorium, before
the largest audience attending the
annual event for years, if it were
not the record audience in the his
tory of the Plentywood high
school.
The receipts, the representative
of the Producers News is advised,
broke all records, over $109, re-
sulting from the afternoon matinee
and the main performance in the
evening.
The play itself was a great inn
provement over the usual high
school undertakings, in that as
well as being entertaining, it also
dealt with real problem as school
plays should, and very likely
marks a departure from the pur-
poseless, non-realistic, trivial play
usually presented by high school
students in the past. And this
fact was appreciated by the pat
rons as was demonstrated by the
number attending, and their re-
SPONGE to the lines and the efforts
of the young actors.
It must be borne in mind that
the cast in the senior play is Sc
lected from the class, and only
such material as the class posses
ses is available. The director must
take what he has from young and
inexperienced students, and do the
best with it. So one cannot go to
an amateur high school play and
expect histrionic performances of
professional actors, but must come
to witness what these amateur
players are capable of doing.
The audience witnessing "New
Fires" was not disappointed.
The cast as a whole did excep-
tionall well, much to the credit of
their own efforts, and that of their
talented and tireless director,
Winnifred Opgrande, to whose en-
ergy and ability the enterprise is a
splendid compliment. The young
actors knew their lines, and
handled themselves well on the
stage. All knew their moments
as we'll as their lines-and this
proved attention and work, more
work than the spectator realizes.
1t would be hard to say which
actor did the best work-and be-
cause of the situation, it would
take a brave soul to be too def
mite. But while all did well, still
some actually excelled. And this
can be said especially of Harvey
Dionne, who played Sid Sperry,
the Ozark farm hand, and also
Billy and Phyllis, Kermit Hedge
son and Charlotte Benson, the kid
son and daughter of the dignified
author, Stephen Santry. And per-
haps, Dick Gustaffson, as Jerry,
Sid Sperry's son, deserves the
laurels as doing the best of all
he made his role a scream, though
of course it was not the hardest
part.
Leonard Highland, as the author,
and pater familias, had the leading
role, and the most lines. 1t is not
an easy task for high school boy
to play a role of this sort, but Heg-
land in spite of all obstacles did
Exceptionally well, and showed a
great comprehension of his role.
There were Is in the cast, and
each and everyone did well.
Between the acts, the Plenty
wood high school Hillbillies or
chestra, entertained with music,
that won the big applause.
