Food for Thought

by Mary Davenport, Nutritionist,
Delaware State Board of Health
This is beautiful dessert. Men,
women and children enjoy it. It's
lovely for party and we guaran-
tee that the guests will ask FOR the
recipe.
Now for the business side Of the
story. It's not expensive and that's
a rare statement about most des-
serts, particularly when it's be-
lieved to be suitable for party.
The big secret is that it is a good
source of milk. This is stressed
for those people who must get their
milk in prepared foods. Many peo-
pie are in the process of learning
to use canned milk yet entertsin
some hesitancy about it. For these
people, we don't announce the con-
tents until the platter is cleaned.
You may freeze the finished pro-
duct. Most of us prefer It thor
oughly chilled but not frozen.

AVICA PRESIDENT
REFUTES CHARGES
BY REP. MILLER

AVtCA President Ashley L.
Totten, refuted the charge by
Congressman Arthur Miller
that the native people are so
lazy, they have to depend up
on the Importation of fruits,
vegetables and livestock from
the British Island of Tortola.
Mr.. Totem reminded the
Congressman that if a tax was
levied on products imported
from this foreign island, the
small growers and farmers at
st. Croix could easily provide
enough food for home con-
sumption but in the face of an
un-American custom to bene-
fit a foreign island to the detri
ment of the native inhabitants
of an American island it is
quite unfair to make the blan-
ket charge that the natives are
lazy"
