OVER THE
BACK FENCE
BY MARGUERITE FINEFRoCK

Hiya Neighbor-Don't look now,
but there goes Mrs. Oglethorpe
with her slip showing as usual.
Wouldn't you think, if she didn't
have time to take a tuck in it
she'd at least tie a string around
her waist? She always looks as if
she took a running jump and land
ed in her clothes before bursting
out the door in all directions. Bet
she's on her way to the beauty
parlor, and heaven help the opera
tor who'll have to spend the next
couple of hours listening to her
brag about the new automatic
washer and the new refrigerator
she's going to have just as soon
as her kitchen is remodeled. Just
between ourselves and the gate
post we heard that she can't get
any credit anywhere in town and
that if she doesn't pay what she
owes now, why (b-z-z-z b-z-z-z,
b-z-z-z), but don't tell anyone we
told you. In fact we wouldn't even
mention it to you except that
we've been neglecting Mrs. Ogle-
thorpe shamefully for a number of
weeks and, after all, it's our duty
to see that her reputation remains
intact.

Fat Salvage Benefits ALL
BY KATE SMITH
singing Star and Radio Com M mentd,o-,

food editor pointed out to me
that saving used cooking fat and
selling 1t to your meat dealer.
while 1t does take time. is actu.
ally the simplest way of disposal
Pour kitchen grease down the
sink and what happens? You
have to pay a plumber to exca:
vate your drains.
Toss fat into the garbage can,
and first thing you know. it has
leaked through and left smelly
stains in the lining of your pail
Storing grease in used fat con-
tainer and selling 1t to your meat
dealer is by far the easiest and
most efficient way to dispose of
an otherwise odorous and worth.
less mess.
When you sell kitchen grease,
your meat dealer gives you PEN
nies for every pound. Not enough
to buy & sirloin steak. but cash
in the hand, which is more than
you get for potato peelings,
orange skins, egg shells or any
other kitchen waste product.>
Our government asks US to
keep up the good work of scoop
ing, scraping and skimming every
drop of used cooking fat We don't
need, And l think we all should,
because it's one conservation
measure that has tangible and
immediate benefits for all. ~,
