UNLOCKED FRUIT CAKEr
FLORIDA,
From M. M. c., Alerandri


fFrona M. M. c., Alerdndrid.J
wonder if any one might have
the recipe for uncooked fruit
cake? got the recipe last year
and made three cakes. Every one
who tasted them was delighted.
However I have misplaced the
recipe and cannot remember just
how it was made. I know that it
took two boxes of graham crack
ers. I would appreciate it If some
of you readers could give me this
recipe.
Several times I have seen re-
quests for information about low
cost accommodation in Florida.
We have been going to Florida for
a number Of years and will admit
that we found it a little steep.
However, the last two years we
found a delightful little court that
is very reasonable. It is run by
a widow and everything is num-
ber /. 1t is located in Tampa,
easy to reach, near beaches in st.
Petersburg and Clearwater. We
have really enjoyed it. Any one
that would like more information
can write to me through RICH.

SMALL DOGS.
RICE PUDDING?
FOR SLOPE

PLANTS FOR SLOPES
(From Mrs. r. McL., HydttsDilleJ
May add a word in regards to
small dogs. Last year we were
given beagle hound and we have
nothing but praise for her. She
is gentle, extremely affectionate
and not at all noisy.
She never has any odor and
does not shed hair. When in the
house, she sleeps unless called and
is no trouble whatsoever.
We wouldn't part with her for
anything and as beagle is a
small breed they make an ideal
house dog.
Does any one have recipe for
a real creamy rice pudding?
From Mrs. G. M. C., WaShingtonJ
To Mrs. w. R. L.: For 10 years
I had a female toy poodle. She
died of old age but to the end
was so lovable and dear. She was
easy to train, never forgot, was
very affectionate and loyal and
keen, and bright. She weighed
71a pounds. You COUNT go
wrong in choosing one. I want
another.
We have a new home with
sloping front yard. We are on
the hillside. Now the slope seems
to wash away after heavy rains.
Is there any thing to stop this?
Any plant to help hold the slope?
Those who are fond of African
violets and fall prenenials should

You use six bottle caps of the

Squeeze out one rag in this and
60 over your furniture with two
damp rags and follow with a dry
one. The operation takes just a
minute and there is no greasy

can run your finger across and it
leaves no streak or print. And

Court Asked 10 Drop
Kruq as Defendant in
:Anti-5egregation Suit

.. Government attorneys yesterday
asked District Court to release In
terror Secretary Krug as a defend
ant in an anti-segregation suit
filed last September by five Negro
families in connection with the
operation of Fairgrounds here.
In an answer to the suit, the
Government contended that mo
controversy" existed between the
plaintiffs and Mr.. Krug, as a
cabinet member. 1t was also ar
gued that the court has no juris-
diction where Mr.. Krug is con-
cerned.
Mr.. Krug. who submitted his

succeeded next month by Oscar
Chapman, was named in the suit
along with the District Recreation
Board, the District Commissioners,

It is only because Of this dis
pute that Interiors policy against
compulsory racial segregation and
discrimination has not been en-
forced by the Recreation Board,
according to Mr.. Morrison.
The answer further stated fatty
that Interior has no jurisdiction
over the Wheatley School play
ground, since it is under the ex-
elusive control of the Boards Of
Education and Recreation.
Only last month, Mr.. Krug pub
licly called for campaign to end
