Cooking Demonstration
At Damascus School
Monday, April "a

Widely known throughout the
United States as result of cooking
schools, broadcasts and demonstra-
lions which she has conducted, Miss
Vio.a Decker will come to Damascus
to conduct demonstration of mod
ern electric cookery for local home
The demonstration will be held at
the Damascus high school on Monday,
April "a, at 1880 p. m. 1t will be
sponsored by the Damascus PIT. A.
under the auspices of the Damascus
Electric Company. 1t is presented by
Hotpoint, pioneers in electric cookery.
Miss Decker joined the home eco
nomics staff of the Edison General
Electric Appliance Co., Inc, of
Chicago, manufacturer of the we'll :
known Hotpoint electric range, after
several years of college training i'll
home economics. She attended Stout
Institute, where her work attracted
the attention of the home economist
of the local utility company and it
was through this connection that Miss
Decker became interested in modern
electric cookery.
After joining the Hotpoint Com
pany, she received several months
training in the Home Economics Lab
oratories of the company before be-
ing assigned to firms, as well as dis
tricts. Since that time she has con-
Quoted cooking schools in a number
of cities including Chicago, New York,
Atlanta, Dallas, Cleveland, Los An
geles, Seattle, Denver, Honolulu.
Hawaii, etc., and has presided at Civ
ing demonstrations for schools, col
leges and sales training classes of
utility companies.
GAS far as we can see now, cleo
trio cookery is the ultimate cooking
method" Miss Decker says. Since the
first practical electric range for do
nestle use first saw the light of day
something like twenty-five years ago,
there has been constant succession
Of improvements in it. And there will
continue to be improvements as the
years go by.
