'Shop:<Talk'
By Dorothy Bihlman

It's amazing! A new roaster and
broiler combination that it is said
will make everyday meals holiday
tfeat and do it easily and quickly.
1t works on the principle of an old
fashioned barbecue revolving spit,
but nothing could be more up-to-
date. 1t Is self-basting, self-cook-
ing, self-turning. 1t will cook
roast, chicken or that delicious
Greek dish, shishkabob deliciously
brown. 1t quickly sears your food
and retains all the nutritional quail
tiles and full. natural flavor. There's
three position flat grill for low,
medium and high heats. 1t is port
able, weighing only 1914 pounds.
You cam take it, to the table on oc-
casions without being ashamed of
its appearance. Another point you
can watch your food reach its peak
of perfection through the heat re-
sistant glass sides. Quite worth
while, and lovely gift for the
future bride.
Here's just the thing for those
"live-alopes" or perhaps for the
working member of a family who
breakfasts alone. A one-cup coffee
contraption. It consists of a plastic
plate and holder, a glass and a
metal drip arrangement that fits
securely over the glass. 1t holds
eight ounces and takes approx
mately three minutes to make a
tasty cup of coffee. Then there's
no leftover coffee and no dirty
pot to clean. These individual
makers come in an assortment of
colors so that you can match it
with the scheme of your kitchen.
Boat owners would probably be
interested in a set Of sectional plates
with companion cups. These are
also made of plastic and so con-
structed that the cup fits securely
over prongs in the center of the

Readers Clearing House

a flower exchange club, Wnlch Woulo
meet at the different ladies' homes
every week or every other week to
discuss flowers, make exchanges,
knit, crochet and have sort OF a
Kaffee Klatsch. I am rather lone
lv housewife and would enjoy this
sort of thing and I am quite sure
that some of the other flower lovers
are in the same position as I am
and would welcome such a pleasant
gathering.
We can attend flower shows and
take in all lectures pertaining to
flowers.
Now in answer to J. H. G. Of Arl-
ington, in regard to baking small
fruit cakes in 1-pound coffee tins.
I have been doing this for 10 years
successfully and will explain how.
Grease your tins thoroughly, then
grease square of wax paper that
will fit into your tin and fit it into
tin, making pleats around side OF
tin. Then pour your cake batter in
leaving about an inch of space as
cake will rise some, then put q
piece of creased wax paper on top
warm oven and put cake in. Bake
at slow temperature about IL hours
This also depends upon how much
fruit and nuts are in the cake; at
any rate, bake slowly, test with
straw. I don't decorate the cans
Make two small holes in tin cover
and cover when cool. Add brandy
from time to time and cover again
Your paper will brown on the edges
but that doesn't matter. Try to keep
it up along the edge of tin If you
can.
When you grease the square wax
paper to put into tin, the creased
part is where the batter is poured
into.
Do not remove the cake from the
tin, it stays that way until eaten
I always make mine in october and
they are ripe by Christmas and all
my friends are happy to receive
such a gift, as 1t weighs about 21k
pounds when finished. hope you
will be successful in doing this as
t. have been for 10 years.

your knees and place your feet fiat

rest on the floor, extending straight
out from your armpits. Keep your
flngertips on the floor, lift your
heels from the floor but keep your

from side to side, slapping your
thighs on the floor.

Dorothy Dix Says

When men and women are pick
ing out their life mates, there is one
quality that they seem to completely
ignore, and that is RESPECT. A
man will marry a girl because she
has a pretty face or good figure
or cute ways, or because he likes
to dance with her, without appar-
emily giving single thought as to
whether she has any characteristics
that command his respect.
Women are even less choosy
matrimonial shoppers, for they
marry philanderers and drunkards
and ne'er -do-wells and weaklings
just because they pity them. al
though they know that they will be
broken reeds that they can never
lean on, or look to for support.
Perhaps this total ignoring of the
most essential factor in marriage is
the explanation of why there are SO
many disgruntled husbands and
wives, and why SO many marriages
are failures. For beauty fades and
youth passes and playful kittens
turn into old cats with claws, and
if a girl has nothing but a few sur
face charms her husband Is bound
to feel, when these are gone, that
he has made a poor matrimonial
bargain.
Nor does the girl who marries a
man because she Is sorry for him, or
because she thinks she has a mis-
sion to reform him, fare any bet
ter. Pity is too close toscontempt
to be a satisfying emotion. The most
compassionate Of women gets tired
Of weeping over a derelict. She
wants husband she can look up
to, not down upon. When a wife
realizes that her husband cannot
hold his own among other men, she
has drunk her cup of bitter tea to
its dregs.
We make love the most important
thing in marriage, but a. more vital
factor is respect, for even love Itself
cannot endure unless it Is founded

plate, thus eliminating fitting II the
boat should rock. These plate and
cup sets also come in assorted COL
ors which would lend q festive note
to on-board dining.
Here's something new! A table
lighter which is patterned after
those expensive and famous Dun
hills In fact, this lighter looks
like an over-grown pocket type. It
is constructed of chromium so there
Is no danger of it furnishing. II

Here's an ideal gift for bride-to-
be. A pretty and neat shrimp
server. It consists of a large outer
plate in which you put the crushed
ice with the shrimp on top. Then
it has small inner bowl that Is
suspended over the large one by
means of three chromium arms.
This to hold that tasty sauce. On
the ends of each arm Is a small
holder for handy toothpicks. Tpe
dish is comparatively inexpensive
and certainly would be a present
unlikely to be duplicated.
Keep a slice-a slice handy for
party sandwiches. 1t was designed
especially to slice already sliced
bread in half. The metal holder IS
equipped with prongs for holding
the bread securely while very thin
knife inserted in the center goes to
work.
Do you remember those soap saw
ers a few years back? Well aocal
store has a large supply of the still
hard to find gadgets. They are
made of metal just like the old
style ones and as we all know the

on respect. No man can spend q
lifetime gazing enraptured on liv-
ing picture. In fact, he can get
mighty tired of looking at it If it is
nothing but pretty parlor orna-
ment and there is nothing behind
it of strength or intelligence or
worth, no quality that stands up
under the wear and tear of life and
holds his admiration.
There are no more heartbreaking
tragedies than those endured by
husbands and wives who have, as
the phrase goes, just lost their taste
for each other. They have done each
other no wrong, but they have Just
gotten on each others nerves so
that their marriage has become a
martyrdom. The pretty little dull
wife Is still brainless doll, only
she isn't a fascinating toy any
more. She Is milestone around the
neck of the man who married her
without stopping to find out If she
had anything to recommend her
except a few cunning tricks.
The husband who was so pic
turesque and romantic and quoted
poetry SO beautifully no longer
thrills the wife who has to sup
port him, and who wishes to Heaven
she had married businessman in.
stead Of a great lover.
So when youths and maidens 60
a-courting. they should steel them
selves against the appeal of glamour
girls and boys and scrap their ro-
mantle fancies, and when they be-
gin to get that-away about Sally
or Jim, say to themselves: Has this
gal, or this lad. got the qualities
that respect? Could depend upon
Sally standing. by me in time of
trouble and fighting it out with me,
shoulder to shoulder? Could I trust
her as trust God? Has Jim got the
integrity that nothing can shake.
and the loyalty that will make him
faithful to me to the end?" And if
the answer is YES, send out the
wedding cards.

WHINING CHILD.

TO CRISS-CROSS CURTAINS.
(From Mrs. M. J. r., Siluer Spring.
To Mrs. S. j B., Riverdale Since
your little five-year-old girl has
always been a good child, it is quite
possible her whining may be the
result of cutting her six-year nolars
and not that of baby brother at all.
I suggest you ask your doctor to
examine her gums before trying to
discipline her too much. My FIVE
year-old niece who has no brothers
or sisters, is going through that
stage, too.
To Criss- Cross Curtains. If you
have single curtain rods and would
like criss-cross curtains, buy the
small round rods at any dime store.
Put them directly under your regu-
lar rods using the 81" hooks that
come with them. Put one piece of
curtain on small rod and other on
regular rod.

WASHINGTON, Jan. ll.--John l.. Lewis and the United Mine Workers told the Supreme Court today that the governments no-strike injunc- tion in the soft coal dispute was void
 Attorney for Lewis and the union filed a brief before the high court contending that Congress had bar red the issuance of restraining orders against unions.
 The government also filed brief arguing that Lewis and the union should have obeyed the Federal District Courts order not to strike last November regardless of the courts authority to issue such a directive.
 Lewis and the union were found guilty of contempt of court for yio- lating restraining orders issued by Judge T. Alan Goldsborough and were fined a total of S3,510,000

Protection for Alaska from Bombs Is Urqedby
 Former A. |. Commander

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. ll.-Pro- lection for Alaska against bombs from the top of the world" was urged by Warren H. Atherton, former National Commander of the American Legion, in a speech be- fore the Commonwealth Club. He termed the Territory ''our bulwark against international storm"
 Atherton also decried the man ner in which Alaskan affairs have been handled.
 We must quit treating Alaska as a stepchild to be worked to the bone for our own advantage while neglecting her education, her feel ings and her growth the gov ernment must revamp the ancient outworn restrictions of the Depart ment of the Interior to encourage individual settlement in Alaska: rich and fertile valleys. Special in ducements must be offered to enable pioneer business men to gel on their feet he said.
 Atherton visited every important military hase in the Territory dur ing a recent 10,o00-mile air force inspection tour
