NEW NOTES ON SPECIAL DIET
DISHES

DISHES
Even the most rugged family has
a member or two every now and
then with some sort of illness. 1t
may be only a sore throat or an
upset tummy-or it might be some
thing in the way of a major opera
ton. But most of US, sooner or
later, have some sort of difficulty
that calls for a soft diet as part of
the treatment. When that day
comes, it's a great comfort and re-
lief to be able to fall back on those
fine favored, superior strained
foods that come in cans prepared
specially for infant feeding and
soft diets for both, adults and chill
dren. These foods range all the
way from soups and cereals to
vegetables, meat products and des-
serts. They are all prepared from
the choicest quality of ingredients,
strained to a silken smooth con-
sistency and packed with labora-
tory precision to retain the highest
possible nutrient value Of the food.
They are completely free Of sea-
sonings and spices so they are
adaptable to the most delicate and
exacting diet. And when the pa
tient begins to come around, and
the doctor permits, you can tone
up the tempo of the menu by add
ing other simple and savory foods
to these fine favored specialties.
Here now are variety of new and
novel suggestions made by mixing
strained foods with simple staples:

THE LOWDOWN
FROM HICKORY GROVE

I been reading where the Com
merce Department predicts the
biggest holiday sales since 1929.
I was nonplussed. So I adjusted
my specs and took a second look
thinking it sure must'be a mis-
take on account no known New
Era person has, ever before been
guilty of saying something good
for 1929. But it checked up-and
was no misprint.
Mr.. Hopkins, he is flirting with
the dog house. He is becoming
non compos mentis-as we say in
Hickory. Grove. Nobody up there
right next door to the Head Pay
master-if he is not a bit touched
is gonna make such a faux pas.

vernac here at Hickory
But to get back to 1929, brother,
that is what I been waiting for
night and day. had 2 pair of
shoes then, and we had turkey
even without a double-jointed
Thanksgiving-and I kept my life
insurance paid up. And as look
back / cannot remember anybody
who was acknowledgements or
discouraged.
But there is one thing we did
not have in 1929-we had no

LurHER.s LAST EXPERIMENT

Luther Burbank, wizard of hor-
ticulture, was often pestered by
strangers, who desired to know
why he didn't develop this or
that-as for example, a grape
fruit without partitions in it.
"Well, Mr.. Burbank, what mir
acle are you working on now?"
one inquisitive individual asked.
":Well-it's a secret, answered
the expert, ''but 1 don't mind tell

do you expect to producer"
"Custard", was the reply.

CHRISTMAS EDITORIAL

I take pleasure in thanking
you for your editorial Christ
mas, in the December 23rd is
sue of The Citizen, especially the
part which brings forth the fact
that Christmas Day is not the
anniversary of the birth of Christ
Jesus. ! am glad to see also the
statement that it was used to SUI
persede some pagan festival. 1t
let's the people know that they
have been deceived for centuries
by the very people who claimed
to be their duly-ordained spirit
ual advisers.
Although the exact date of the
birth of Christ Jesus is not known
we may approximate the date by
reasoning upon Gods Word:
Christ Jesus was brought forth
under the Law of Moses, in which
we find the following: "Take the
sum of the sons of Kohath.
from thirty years old and up
ward, even unto fifty years old,
all that enter into the host, to do
the work in the tabernacle of the
congregation" .-Numbers 4:1-3).
Saint Luke writes: ''Now when
all the people were baptized, it
came to pass, that Jesus also be-
ing baptized, and praying, the
heavens were opened. And Je-
sus himself began to be about
thirty years of age"2Guke
3:21,23). From Daniel 9:26.27 I
quote the following: "And after
three score and two weeks shall
Messiah be cut off, but not for
himself. And he shall confirm
the covenant with many for one
week: and in the midst of the
week he shall cause the sacrifice
and oblation to cease".A footnote
in the Douay (Catholic) Version
of the Bible says: "Christ preach
ed three years and half: and
then by his sacrifice upon the
cross he abolished all the sacri-
fees of the law.
1t is a fact that Christ Jesus
was crucified about the first day
of April (the year unknown. If
he taught three years and half
he must have begun his ministry
about October first. According
to the Law of Moses he must
have been thirty years old when
he began to preach, therefore it
reasonably follows that he was
born some time near the first of
October He certainly would not
have waited from December I'M
til the next October to begin, nor
is it reasonable that he would
have begun three months before
he reached his majority. Gods
workings are not done in such a
manner. Moses was admonished
of God when he was about to
make the tabernacle: for, See,
saith he, that thou make all
things according to the pattern
showed to thee in the mount"
Hebrews $50 There are many
other things which / should be
glad to bring to your attention,
but which / do not consider ex-
pedient in letter of this kind.
The above treats the subject
fully, although the manner
whereby the three and one half
years is obtained may be found
by careful study of Ezekiel 4:6;
Revelation liz, IL.

Readers should understand that
at this stage of the presidential
campaign, most of the stuff that
they read is imaginative. Reports
as to how the delegates to the
Conventions stand are entirely
speculative. Hints of combina-

are premature because the issues
are not yet clearly defined and
the lines of battle remain indefin-

Considerable interest is at
tached to the opinion of the SUI
preme Court upholding the right
of the State of Texas to extend
its taxing power beyond ats bor-
ders and other states where no
similar tax is in force may be
expected to follow the Texas ex-
ample. The Texas law requires
a corporation to pay tax on its
total capital in the ratio that
gross receipts from its business
in Texas bears to the company's
revenue from all sources. The
levy is called a franchise tax,
a payment for the privilege of
carrying on business In Texas.
The case arose when the Ford
Motor Company paid under pro-
test a tax of S7,529, which it
commended was more than seven
times what it should pay.

but that the State has the power
to make a charge against domes-
tic or foreign corporations for
the opportunity to- transact intra-
state business. This the Court
upholds and says that when the
charge is based upon the proper
ton of the capital employed,
calculated by the percentage of
sales which are within the State,
no provision of the Federal Con-
stitution is violated.
Every now and then rumors
spread throughout the United
States of an impending peace in
Europe. So far, none of them
seems to have any basis of fact.
State Department officials do not
believe that there has been any
thing to them except a desire in
German quarters to spread
abroad a hint that Germany
might join in a joint front against
Russia. Every reader of war
news should understand that dis
patches from Europe are strictly
censored and that little news gets
out of these countries affecting
the war, unless the nation in
volved is willing for the story to
be printed abroad.

opportunities to address the peo-

are already being formed. They
include: farm relief, the recipro-

tary deficit, and the attitude of
the Administration toward bust
ness. Governmental agencies,
such as the IVA, will be under
heavy fire.
