To Shell Hard Cooked
Eggs The Easy Way

There is right and wrong way
to do everything-this even applies
to Smelling hard cooked eggs. Poul-
try specialists at the University of
Maryland are suggesting a fast
and easy egg Smelling method for
homemakers who are putting up
picnic lunches, packing daily lunch
boxes, or preparing summer sal
ads and main dishes for the family.
They advise the homemaker to
shell the eggs under running wa
ter: AS soon as the egg is cooked,
cool it Immediately under running
water to loosen the shell, prevent
overlooking and make handling
easier. Crack the shell by tapping
against a hard edge or with q
spoon. Then loosen it by rolling the
egg between the hands. Hold the
egg under water and begin pecling
at the large end where there is an
air space under the shell. The cold
water helps ease off the shell and
washes away any bits left on the
white.
Prompt cooling in water after
cooking has another advantage. It
helps prevent the dark ring which
sometimes appears around the yolk
of a hard-cooked egg. The ring
can be prevented entirely by cook
ing at a low temperature, not over
cooking and chilling thoroughly
afterward.

ting flies. There was an award to
the lad bringing in the greatest
number of dead flies, so while some
swatted, others counted dead flies!
There was no Public Library at
the me-(we beg to differ with
the ladies that they started the
first in Rockville) so there was a
meeting at Mrs. John Henderson's
home. Twenty-nine books we're do
nated-how those books were scru-
tinized with Mrs. Guy Carter
just hoping to find "cuss" word
in one.
No wrappings on bread = how
unsanitary = so those ladies who
had been 'riz" on bread from Rel
singers-six loaves for a quarter,
unwrapped = started a movement
which resulted in the present well
protected bread. This to the tune
of "Shortnin' Bread"
Then the Inquiry Club helped
with the organization of the new

strated by the passing of firemen's
caps. Miss Lucy, to be different,
waved a red fire chief helmet.

and other World War songs-the
ladies in Red Cross uniforms roll

looked for other worlds to con-

thing. Posters Cleanup! Help

the tune of "Ahy Rags, Any Bones,

to the schools-sent sister Lucy an

children, and Mrs. R. E. L. Smith

years for free School Days,

When the Boy Scout Troop was
organized the Inquiry Club was
right in there batting = helping
raise funds, etc. The opening of
the Rockville Gym was a great
event-they had a hand in that
too. They were quick to recognize
the need for a kindergarten. The
interest of the club in childish
pleasures was demonstrated by

and vote we can do much toward
changing many laws that degrade
us. humiliate us and often sub
ject US to ridicule and seorn. To
win freedom and remain free, we
must pay the price in an intel
ligent effort to do so.
Freedom Is not a gift from
heaven. It is a thing that must
be won and rewon for every gem
Grafton for itself. It is not ours
for the mere asking; as so many
placent Americans seem to think.
It is ours only for the taking =
through competent personal effort
in support of the eternal prin-
ciples on which 1t rests.
AS human beings, black or
white, rich or Door we should
enjoy a privilege which renders
us superior to all other objects
of material creation. Endowed with
mind and the power of thought
we not only occupy place among
other physical forms and objects,
but we have a part in a creative
way to help shape the course of
the future. Through thought, the
instrument of life's labors, we re-

United States, placed there by a
President who has the Ierve and
the decency to tell ali smerica
that segregation and discrimina-
ton must end now.
Why again? Because we are
citizens of the greatest republic
the world has ever krown and
its constitution guarantees the
right to vote and further; Be-
cause it will cost us nothing but
few minutes of our time to
be of service TO ourselves, our
