GIVE EGGS THE BREAKS

U. S. hens have come up with
the hugest egg crop in the history
of our country, so give your eggs
not one but many breaks. 1t is
estated that after all needs for the
armed forces are met, every civil
ian can have $50 eggs a year as his
share. Crowded storage and trans
pOrtatiOn facilities make it neces-
sary to extend our heavy Easter
season egg use well into May
Smart housewives will seize on this
opportunity to save money, points,
as well as cooperate in using the
plentiful foods.
In addition to the more familiar
egg dishes-scrambled, souffles,
Omelets, custards-here are some
ideas the U. S. Department of Ag-
riculture and others suggest for
using more eggs:
Quick Egg Noodles For SOup:-
Beat 12 eggs with little salt until
foamy, then blend with 2 table
spoons flour for each egg. Pour
mixture in thin steady stream into
SillHuellHS DIOlu, StiiI lhS COhStdhl-
ly. Cook 2 minutes and serve at
once.
To add richness, color and flavor
to chicken pie:-Add a little hot
broth to a well beaten egg, blend
and stir the mixture into the re-
manning broth. May add egg in
same way to white sauce to use on
vegetables or other creamed
dishes.
Use as glaze for coffee cake
with sliced fruit on tOp:-Beat the
whole egg with a fork until slight
ly foamy, add 3 tablespoons sugar,
spread evenly over fruit before
baking. The glaze keeps fruit
plump and holds it in place.
Serve a treat Of Orange NOgs to
the children:-Preserve whites for
meringue. Beat egg yolk thorough
ly and blend we'll with orange
juice. This is an excellent way to
use eggs for the children who don't
enjoy them, for the egg flavor can
not be detected.

NATIONAL FARM LEADER
HALLS JOHNSTON PLAN

One of Americas leading farm
figures today hailed Eric Johns
tons proposals for harmony be-
tween government and business as
a means of bringing the golden
age of prosperity to every phase of
American business life from the
farmer to the international indus
tlialist.
Johnston, dynamic president of
the United States Chamber of Com
merce, predicated in an article in
the May issue of Cosmopolitan
magazine that harmonious rela-
tiOns between government and
business would enable the United
States to utilize six economic pO-
tentials which would insure unpre-
cedented prosperity for this coun-
try in the post war period.
Hearty endorsement of Johns
toms business philosophy was
voiced by Edward A. O'Neal. presi-
dent of the American Farm Bureau
Federation, who said:
Il agree with fundamental phil
OsOpties as expressed by Eric
Johnston in his article for May
Cosmopolitan. consider him one
of the greatest Americans of to-
day"
In the article Johnston outlined
steps which both government and
business should take in order to
capitalize on the brilliant economic
potential which he forsees.
Whether these potentials become
pillors of strength or sources of
economic embarrassment depends (
on our clear vison, unblurred
and courage as a nation"
Johnston stated in the article. II
depends on our readiness to fol- l
low the middle way and to work
together from the largest possible
areas Of agreement"

point of view. Each child made in
Productions before the class, pre-
senting it as a little play to the
class. They explained the setting,
who the characters represented,
etc. Then with the help of class
mates they enacted the scene max
ing the proper introductions.
This gave the children experience
not only in making the presenta-
tion but multiple opportunities to
practice. and hear proper and
gracious acknowledgements of in
Productions.
We introduced classmates to
classmates, classmates to parents,
boys to girls, men to women,
teachers to parents, parents to
superintendent, friend to hostess,
visiting Scout to Scout Master all
social situations think were
covered.
Our particular problem in writ
ten composition just at this time is
the use of direct quotation. In the
words spoken by the characters
when an introduction is made,
was an opportunity for correlating
this with my regular English
course. Consequently we wrote
our intrOductiOns up in the form
of direct quotations. Thus getting |
practice in correct punctuation and
paragraphing of direct quotations,
as well as drill on using proper
forms of introductions.
My aim is to correlate this work

FOOD FOR THOUGHT
By ELEANOR M. WILKINSON
NutrItIsnIst for the State Board Of Health
TIMESAvERs FOR MOTHERS

Every year we set aside one Sun
day in May to pay tribute to oui
mothers On that day an apprecia-
tive family will make every effort
to tighten mothers work and give
her more time for herself. Many
women are now working outside
of the home. 1t is difficult for
them to keep up their home duties
let alone have free time. If the
children are grown and at home
this is a simple matter. Cleaning
and serving meals and earring for
the younger children can be par
celled out so that everybody has a
job which Doesn't take too much
time and all have some free time.
IF Children Are Young
Mothers whose children are not
yet old enough to take RESPONSE
bility in the home will find they
can save time and make their work
easier by planning. 1t may pay to
get up little earlier before the
children are awake. Planning
marketing in advance will save an
amazing amOut of time. 1t takes
only a few moments to make a
list of items to be replaced on the
weekly trip to market yet it cuts
down on time spent in the store
and cuts out return trips for things
you forgot.
Children Need Simple Food
1t is indeed fortunate that chill
uren require simple foods for what
young mother has time to cOncOct
elaborate dishes? For instance,
huttered carrots for the family,
sieved ones for Junior. She may
save time by preparing and cook
ing enough for two or three meals.
Those she is planning to use for
another meal she will remove
when partially cooked and store in
the refrigerator. Then they can be
cooked just until done and served
with little loss of food value or
flavor. Soup. stew and simple des-
serts can also be made in large
quantities and stored.
These ideas will save time for
mothers and help to preserve
them. Here is a recipe for preserv-
ing children:
To preserve children, take
| large grassy field
u dOZ. children
. or more small dogs
A pinch of brook and pebbles
Mix children and dogs together
we'll and put in field stirring con-
stantly. Pour brook over pebbles.
Sprinkle field with flowers. Spread
over all a deep blue sky and bake
in the sun. When well done remove
and set to cool in a bath tub.
