Milk Shakes And NOgs
For Summer Months

Many a delicious and nourishing
milk beverage may be made at
home, especially at this season
when milk is in such plentiful
supply and warm weather whets
appetites for cool drinks, says May
belle Ligon,. Sussex County Home
Demonstration Agent. The youngs-
ters in the family can whip or
shake up their own milk concoc-
tions for between-meal snacks or
party beverages. Chilled milk
drinks also will be welcome at
noon meals or hot days.
A delicious milk shake can be
made with banana pulp instead of
ice cream. To fill tall glass, use
ia fully ripe banana and cup of
cold milk. Peel the banana, slice
and press through a medium-fine
seive-or put into bowl and beat
with an electric mixer or rotary
egg beater until smooth and
creamy. Add milk and beat again.
Miss Ligon says this banana milk

nutmeg. A little chocolate syrup
may be added to it before mixing,
or half cup of orange juice may
be used in place of half of the

it makes an excellent cold drink

To Rededicate Old Wye
Church On July 18th


The rededication of Old Wye
Church, at Wye Mills, Wednesday,
July 1S, at noon, will be a unique
historical event on the Eastern
Shore of Maryland.
The structure, to whose restora-
tion two years of work and study
are nearing completion, represents
hallowed ground for three centur-
les, making it one of the oldest
places of worship remaining from
Colonial America.
The present building was opened
nearly 230 years ago, in the fall Of
1721, but replaced a much earlier
structure on the same site, believ-
ed to have been erected about 1850.
In addition, to the church prop
er, the old Vestry House, built or
iginally in 1862, but of which no
visible trace remained, has been
rebuilt on the site of it's original
foundations which were located by
excavation.
The restoration work has been
under the direction of William G.
Perry, supervising architect for the
williamsburg Restoration, Will
liamsburg, Va. The work has been
carried out with the same meticu-
lous care for historical accuracy
and the same exquisite develop
ment of detail as characterizes the
Governors Palace and other col
onial buildings in Williamsburg
All of this was made possible
through the generosity of par
ishioner, Arthur Emory Houghton
Jr., of nearby Wye Plantation, IN
Queen Anne's County.
AT the rededication services
there will be present three Bishop:
and other clergy OF the Episcopa
Church, Governors, members o
Congress and other notables. Th'
dedication proper will be perform
ed by the Rt. Rev. William A
Brown, d. D., Bishop of Southern
Virginia, and the sermon will b.
delivered by the Rt. Rev. Noble c
Powell, d. D., Bishop of Maryland
The Rt. Rev. George p. Gum, Z
d., Bishop Coadjutor of Southern
Virginia, is expected to be pres
ent.
The entire service will be il
charge of the Rev. Thomas Don
aldson, acting rector of the parish
1t is expected that the restora
ton, in such beautiful and complet
detail, of this ancient place of woI
ship will arouse interest throug
the Eastern Shore and Maryland
The building is expected to beeom
shrine to attract worshipper
from many adjoining states, an
visitors, interested in early Amer
can History, from all parts of tn
country.
1t is planned to have the churc
open at all times after it's compile
ton.
The structure will not be larg
enough to accommodate all wh
wish to attend the dedicatory SCI
vice, but loudspeakers will be il
stalled outside the building to ei
able visitors to hear the complies
service from the lawn. The ladi'
of wye Parish will serve luncheo
for visitors following the service

Mattress Filling

Comfort of solid-filled mattress
es depends chiefly upon the filling.
Long-fibered cotton felted into lay
ers is the best type of cotton filler.
Cheaper filings of short cotton
fibers tend to mat down and de-
velop humps and depressions. Hair
makes a good mattress for those
who prefer firm beds. Horse tail
and cattle tail are best, with horse
name second.

Every intelligent person in this
world looks for old age security.
We dread the thought of growing
old, fearing the days when we can
not take care of ourselves and per-
haps standing in the way of a ris-
ing generation.
In recent years the governments
of the world have been wrestling
with this problem and have Of
fered various plans of social secur-
ity and old age pension. Wisely
we make use of them, but Chris
tians do not depend entirely on
them.
Christians have a security which
is far greater. God promises to be
with them in their old age Even
to your old age am He, and even
to boar hairs will l carry you; /
have made, and I will bear; even I
will carry, and will deliver you"
Isaiah 46,4). He promises that He
white and our body feeble.
But to have this assurance from
God we must trust Him and be

things shall be added unto you.
Take therefore no thought for the
morrow, for the morrow shall take
thought for the things of itself
Trustingly, wisely, and unworried |
we shall live each day, and we
shall Dissolved that our heavenly |
Father always has a way to take !
care of our needs.
God wants us to realize that He
has made us, and therefore we are
His responsibility. He wants us to
appreciate His ability to carry us
through each day and to deliver us
out of all our troubles This re-
quires that we trust Him, love Him,
and live unto him. Only in re-
spouse to our faith can He exercise
His almighty power on our behalf.
This is the kind of security that is
fool-proof, and it is available to all
people. - ST. JOHN LUTHERAN

thoroughly understood by all of the
general public.
The obligation to register" Gen
eral Mitchell said, lis a continuing
obligation and must be fulfilled re-
CARELESS of whether men are being
indicted into the armed forces un-
der the Selective Service Act. The
obligation to register is imposed by
the Act on every male citizen or
resident in the United States be-
tween the ages of l8 and 26, with
the only general exception of mem
bers of the armed forces on active
duty and certain aliens.
The young man of Lincoln Coun-
ty who becomes ID is required to
register within five days of the date
of his eighteenth birthday which
may be done at the County Clerks
Office, G.. c. Earle, registrar, Gen
eral Mitchell explained, but if he
happens to be away from home he
need not return; he may register
at the nearest local board conVen-
lent to him and the record will be
sent to the local board having juris-
diction, even though it is in another
state. After he registers it is man
datory that a registrant keep his
local board informed of any change
in his address or any change in his
status, the State Director pointed
out This applies after he becomes

of this nature, or request for a
duplicate certificate in case of loss,

duction for the armed forces is "a
gain started, sufficient time will be
for these young men to
establish their status as a student,

same consideration that has been
granted in the past"
Questioned concerning the man |
who did not register during the

planned that he is required to reg

ANY person who changes from a
