To the cake lovers the question
of frosting is one of great import
ance and should be selected, with
care. Never top butter cake with
an icing in which butter is used
generously and never use a heavy
boiled frosting on sponge cake.
So next time you bake a cake be
sure to choose the appropriate
frosting.

Chicago-Locked out of her home

sent radio message 10000 miles
to attract the attention of her faith

Ham Operator Ed Beane and Walt
Ashton of suburban Oak Park, were
engaged in three-Way conversation

While Beane was busy at his
transmitter, his daughter-in-law,
Mrs Rita Beane, stepped to the
front porch. A gust of wind blew
the door shut and she was locked
out
Earphones clamped to his head,
Beane was unable to hear her
frantic poundings or the ring of the
telephone as Mrs. Beane tried to
reach him from a neighbors home.
Finally Mrs. Beane telephoned
Ashton and asked him to get a
message to Beane. Ashton, re-estab-
fishing contact, told the Johannes
burg operator what happened.
In a moment Beane was startled
to hear the voice of his far off
radio friend as he said:
