Delicious
Desserts
BY PRUDENCE PENNY

HERE'S A real reward for
the adventurous soul who is
ready 10 try something really
different for dessert-a bread
pudding favored with onion,
tomato and cheese. The onion
and tomato do not actually be-
Come part OF the pudding
They're simply cooked with the
syrup 10 flavor IL. and the re-
suits are indeScribably delicious.
Brown sugar is used 10 make
the syrup but corn syrup can
substitute very nicely for the
present, since IL doesn't require
any coupons.
Another simple but sophisti-
Gated dessert recipe Is avocado
ice cream. The results are un-
usually rich and smooth, too.
Probably because the high fat
content OF the avocado ekes out
the considerably lowered fat
content of wartime cream.
Supreme Bread Pudding
4 cup dark corn syrup
"a cup water
/ small onion
j tomato, quartered
6ssliceS dry bread
s thin slices cheese
"a cup raisins
u teaspoon cinnamon
Softened margarine.
Put corn syrup, water. onion
and tomato in a saucepan and
boil together for 10 minutes.
Spread bread slices with softa
ened margarine and cover each
one with a slice Of cheese.
Arrange bread slices in two
layers in well CREASED baking
dish. Sprinkle each layer with
raisins and cinnamon.
Avocado Ice Cream
y package ice cream mix
u pint light cream
! ripe avocado
l tablespoon lime Juice
II teaspoon grated lime Tind.
Press avocado pulp through a
fine sieve, add the lime juice
and rind and whip until smooth
and creamy Put the cream in
a bowl, add the ice cream mix
and beat until thickened. 1t will
not get stiff.
Stir the avocado mixture in
thoroughly Pour into a shallow
tray and freeze quickly, with
the cold control set at the low
est point. When the iee-eream
is frozen. set the control back
10 normal and allow 10 ripen
for several hours. Serves four.
This ice cream is especially
good served with a rich choco-
late or butterscotch sauce.

FACULTY CLUB
HEARS MEMBER
Frank Hynson Asks Teachers
To Put Themselves in
Place of Students
MORE COOPERATION

Frank Hynson, instructor in In
dustrial Arts in the John Bassett
Moore School, in addressing the
Faculty Club on the subject of i'm
proving classroom instruction, ask
ed all teachers to put themselves
in the place of the students as the
first step toward improving teach
ing efficiency. The speaker further
requested a full measure of intro
faculty cooperation and good fell
lowship, and recommended that all
meetings of the faculty emphasize
social and recreational factors
equally with the educational.
Teacher Control
Discussion of the topic further
developed the point that there can
be no abdication of function on
the part of the instructor; that is,
the instructor must at all times re-
main in control of every situation.
Honest appraisal of methods and
results by each instructor is pre-
requisite to full teaching success,
the speaker concluded.

PRIEST DIES IN
RECTORY FIRE
Father Murphy Burned To
Death in Fire at st. JOseph's
School at Clayton
BUILDING TOTAL LOSS

Father Joseph F. Murphy was
burned to death in a raging fire
early yesterday morning which
completely destroyed the rectory
at st. Joseph's Industrial School in
Clayton. Father Thomas F. O'Con-
nor, priest in charge, and Father
Hugh Conahan, the only other two
occupants of the rectory, escaped
by jumping from second story Win
dows after trying to rescue Father
Murphy. Father O'Connor suffer-
ed burns about the face, bruises,
and possible back injury. Three
other priests were away at the
time.
Started at 8 A. Nj.
The fire started about 8 o'clock
yesterday morning. Some sources
said that the blaze started in the
basement. The 4-story frame
building was a total loss. The
Clayton Fire Company, under the
direction of Chief Merrick Horn,
was called first, and hampered by
the heavy snowstorm and frozen
fire plugs, they sent a call for help
to the Citizens Hose Company at
500. The Smyrna siren was sound
ed twice, and the firemen, directed
by Chief Julian Stats, fought the
blaze for more than two hours. The
CLAYTON firemen were at the scene
until late yesterday, searching
through the debris for the body OF
Father Murphy.
Everything Burned
Nothing was saved from the
house, not even the priests clothes.
Father O'Cconner was forcesd tn
leave his eye glasses behind. After
trying in vain to reach Father
Murphy, he jumped from the Sec
ond story window, landing on the
roof of his car. The extent of his
! back injury was not determined at
this writing.
Father Murphy Ill
Father Murphy had been ill for
some time. He came to st. JOS
eph's as a student in 1885, and has
been associatd with the school at
intervals ever since. He was II
years old.

Been 81 i'm February;
Former Postmaster
SERVICES YESTERDAY

Thomas jefferson, Smyrna's old
est citizen, died at his home on
south Main Street Sunday night
after lingering illness. Mr.. JEFF
ferson died in the same house in
which he was born 81 years ago
this February Z. Services were
held yesterday afternoon at the
FAIRIES Funeral Chapel, with the
Rev. Frederick Marx Barton offic-
iating. Bearers were members of
the Citizens Hose Company, of

Republican politics. He served as
postmaster of Smyrna for a num-
ber of terms before the new post
office was built, was custodian of
the State House in Dover when he
was past 80 years of age, and for
a number of years operated a groc-
cry business here. He was a vol

ity had forgotten.

The Wilson Cabinet Company in
this town, has recently conclud-

with a large mid-western air.

ator cabinets to their specifications.
Bearing the trade name Zero
safe" the new refrigerator is in
tended largely for farm use. The
cabinets are to be made in two
sizes, Is and 25 cubic feet. Each
will have a fast-freezing unit oper-
ating at from 10 to Is degrees be-
low zero. 1t also has a large space
for preserving food over long per-
iods at about zero. The device is
conventional in appearance with a
front-opening door.
Growing Demand
This contract is move designed
to help fill the growing demands
for this type of equipment and will
supplement production of associat-
ed products at the Wilson plant in
Smyrna. 1t is planned that the
contract will be a permanent one,
since company officialsl state that
the present demand and future pos
sibilities for the low temperature
storage of food products run far in
excess of the productive capacity
of the present plant.
Still Growing
The Wilson Cabinet Company has
enjoyed steady growth since its in
eception in July, 1884, when the
production of farm milk coolers

employees, and a space in an old
garage, it has progressed to the
