HoaO can make my pies and
pastries broaon more deepiys They
seem too pale and a0hite to suit our
taste. y 70
Pastry made with milk will
brown more quickly than water
pastry. High baking temperatures
are particularly necessary to set
the crust and give it the desired
browning. Use 425 to $50 degrees
for all pastry and allow the pie
shell to remain in the oven IL to
Is minutes. For a double crust
pie, such as apple, allow an hour
for baking. Cooked fruit filled
pies may be done in 35 to 45 min
= utes. One other device that will
help brown the pies is to brush the
tops with milk, or egg white.

mato juice instead of milk. 81
Season for different flavor with VI
C. horseradish and 1 tsp. mustard.
(4) Use crushed shredded wheat
biscuit, cornmeal, cooked cereal,
crushed cornfakes, or cooked rice
instead of bread crumbs. (5) Cow
er the top with thin slices of mild
cheese before baking. (6) Line the
pan with bacon slices and place
Slices on loaf before baking. (0
Insert ripe olives in loaf, and Use
juice from the can to add flavor.

the receiver as far from his face as

- 1--WE got to have her! I've got to
have that girl today! It's the Gold Strike
cigarette contract" The excited voice in the
telephone rolled around the Office.
What girl?" Bern said YEARLY. 1--WE got
two hundred on the books, Tiger"
The girl! She's the most perfect thing
ever saw. A face like that, and you let her
pose with vacuum cleaner!'
what vacuum cleaner? Dozens of girls
have posed with vacuum cleaners"
You're hell of an agent, the voice said.

Bern sat up. IAN ice box? Oh, Tiger, you

There was an indignant click at the other end
of the wire.
Don Bern put down the receiver.
Tiger Towne wants Shelia Dare for the
Gold Strike contract, " he said to his secretary.
Better get her.
"Oh," Miss Adams plain face clouded. Il
hoped Nancy Carter would get the chance -
she's such grand girl.'
HE wants Dare" Bern said, land he's
the only man in America who knows more
about beauty than do"
1t was Don Be1n's business to provide
models for artists photographers and fashion
shows. He saw more beautiful girls in day
than the average man meets in lifetime.
Girls from all over the world stormed his
office. Usually he sat at the receptionist' desk
in the foyer, watching the parade of girls
through sleepy eyes He could pick them, see
possibilities, where Others failed.
He frowned as he waited for Shelia Dare.
He didn't really dislike the girl, he told him.

never been able to understand.
He remembered the first time he had seen
her, and chuckled. He had been sitting at the

She hadn't been so bad - overdressed

liked girls from America with English accents.
"Whatduyu wanna see him about?" Bern
said.
"None of your business" the lady said.
ok" Bern said. Hes out But you can
see Adams Barge right on through and open
that door marked private.
The lady had barged through the large
reception room where tall, slim girls in chic
clothes and exotic makeup sat and stood,
smoked and talked, and watched the bulletin
board for calls
The minute she left his desk, Bern had
pushed the buzzer Get ready" he said to
Miss Adams, ensoonoed in his private office.
Its too, too, and utterly ntte1!'
Miss Adams made short shift of the lady.
Leave your photographs, name and address.
If anything comes up we'll call you.
Shelia Dare departed, sweeping by the
"offioe boy" without so much as smile or a
farewell nod.
After she had gone, Don Bern casually
picked up her photographs.
"Holy catsv' he said Get that woman!
What face! What a camera face"
Adams interrupted his reflection to an
nounoe Shelia Dare Reluctantly Bern got to
his feet. She came in, a tall, too thin girl -
the camera adds weight in perfect gray

latest doeskin glove She held the hand trif1e

"Sit down." Bern said.
Shelia Dare sat down, cleverly sliding her
chair back, not to be in the direct north light
She turned the left side of her face - naturally

cigarette.
He noticed dispassionately that she was
using three tones of face powder. Very good.
The bone structure of her face was lovely. Her
long green eyes were enhanced by metallic,
shiny looking eye shadow Too synthetic to be
beautiful in real life, he thought, but swell

the elevator operator said.
Numbly Shelia obeyed. She stood on the

Shelia tried to smile. I'm Shelia Dare,

II do like you, Shelia, Bern said, but
Damn it all, what is there about her don't

chance. l know you'll make good But his
voice lacked conviction.
Shelia Dare left the office in daze. The
Gold Strike Girl! This was her chance. The
chance she had dreamed of - and she was 50
afraid that she wanted to sit down on the curb
and cry Suppose she failed?
She started walking fast. If there were only
some one, she thought miserably one
person in the whole world who believed in her!
Some one who would encourage her but
who cared?
Aunt Hattie? That cold. sardonic woman
had daughters of her own to fret and plan TOR.
She had no interest in Shelia. "Your father
hasn't sent your board money" Aunt Hattie
used to say. This is no charity home. Write
your father to send your board money. or find
somebody else to pay for your keep.
But her father didn't care what became OF
her. She wrote him sometimes, but he never
answered.
Evelyn? Shelia laughed. How her success
would rankle in Evelyn's vitriolic soul.
Evelyn was Aunt Hattie's eldest daughter.
She had come to New York to study singing,
and ended running dress shop. When Shelia
finished High School, Evelyn sent for her.
EVELYN said Shelia could work in the shop and
help with the housework When Shelia became
a model, Evelyn was furious. Evelyn said,
with snort, that Shelia would soon see how
tough it was to get along in New York. Shed
crawl back on her knees!
Shelia lifted her chin. New York was tough
- but she'd gotten along Why she'd gone to
the top alone, without influence, without
friends - except Pete.
Pete! Oh, if Pete were only here! He be-
lieved in her! But Pete was in South America
Pete was dress salesman. interested in
everything in the world but selling dresses
The minute he saw Shelia in Evelyn's shop he
decided she should model
"You got way of wearing clothes, baby.
Pete said And looks You'd make good

BY-PRODUCTs COMPANY BUYS
 DAMAGED STEAMER CHATHAM
Firm to Use Equipment From Burn ed Ship At Ward Coco Reduction Plant.

KETCHIKAN Having been gutted by fire at Ward Cove August 31 the steam schooner Chatham, built in 1905, Friday was at Sal mon By-Products company where much of the machinery of the 179- foot ship is to be removed and used in the reduction plant.
 The company became owners of the ship after officials of the Alaska Transportation company, former op- orators of the freighter. and under writers accepted the bid of the Ward Cove company.
 Although it was not determined what the purchase price of the hulk was, the bid entered by Salmon By Products company was for s1735, including claims the company held against the Chatham for aiding in fighting the fire which broke out in the ships engine room while it was loading fish meal at the plant. One other company, Balcom-Payne Fisheries of Ketchikan is known to have bid for the vessel.
 It is understood the Ward Cove company will use boiler from the Chatham and tanks from the ship at the reduction plant. It is believed the new owners plan to salvage oth- CT equipment and possibly wreck the vessel,
 Meanwhile, Talbot and Spaulding local agents for Alaska TraEsT 0r- tation company, announced they have been advised officials of the steamship line hope to replace the Chatham with another ship soon They now are surveying available ships.
 The Tongass, other freighter oi the line, is to call here on its way south Monday. It will load 10,00C cases of salmon, which cargo was or the Chatham when it burned and was beached at Balcom-Payne Fish. cries The salmon cans have beer washed at the cannery and are to bt reconditioned at Seattle. Other sal mon cargo taken from the Chatham was taken south on the motorshiI Northland recently.
 Alaska Pacific Salvage company of Ketchikan, of which Captain L H. H. Jennings is the head, raised the Chatham from where it wal beached at Ward Cove and brough it to the Balcom-Payne cannery. I Is understood underwriters paid tn, Alaska Transportation com an. about s35,00O insurance for the yes sel as it was considered a total los as the result of the fire.
