Visitors bound for Mardi Gras
next month will In most cases
travel through at least o part OF
Mississippi.
For those who plan in advance.
there is much in the Magnolia
State to enjoy on the trip to
and from gay New Orleans. At
least four of Mississippi's scenic,
well-marked highways win carry
the motorist into the city's
famed French Quarter.
Along the Ole Man River
Trail (U. s. 61) from Memphis
to New Orleans, motorists pass
through the fabulous delta Of
plantation life to historic Vicks-
burg, Natchez and way down
yonder" to New Orleans.
Vicksburg, although staggered
by a recent disastrous tornado, is
rebuilding rapidly and will be
ready for the heavy influx Of
tourists who visit the historic
city each year at this time.
Show Boot Ploys
Little damage was felt in the
interesting Vicksburg National
Military Park. with its 1893
memorials and well-marked bat
tlefields. and the undamaged
stern wheeler Sprague Is ex-
pected to be the scene Of Show
Boat plays throughout March.
Although the nationally known
Natchez Pilgrimage is not sched-
uled until March. many Of the
interesting ante-bellum homes
remain open the year around.
Along United States highway
80, the Old Spanish Trail, which
skirts the Gulf Of Mexico between
Mobile and New Orleans, the mo-
toriSt will pass through some of
the oldest and most picturesque
settlements in the Mississippi
Valley. Modern resort hotels, mo-
tells and apartments in any Of the
seven cities between Pascagoula

hours from New Orleans via fast
train. bus and car. provide ac-
commodations. Rates tend to be
reasonable.
A new 26-mile-long, man made
sand beach and four-lane super
highway has recently been COM
pleted in this area.
Two Other Moior Highways
At least two other important
United States highways-51 and
45-provide smooth, pleasant
sailing to New Orleans.
Highway 81, direct from
Memphis to New Orleans. passes
through Coldwater, Sardis, Enid

Motor courts continued build

was to combine the luxury Of
the hotel with the convenience
Of the motel. A number of new
roadside establishments incor-
porated such features as wall-to-
wall carpeting, television in every
room. swimming pools and tennis
courts. Rates at de luxe motor
courts were appreciably higher
than in the past"
Costs Bring Complaints
"Appreciahly higher costs"
caused some complaints at the
membership level of the AAA.
For instance. the Automobile
Club Of Michigan. through Harry
Rogan. reports: I'VE have had a
number Of complaints about the
increase in motel prices, particu-
larly east of the Mississippi
River, and motorists are begin
ming to compare prices charged
by motels with those Of small
town hotels. There is every indi-
cation that motorists are tight
ening their purse strings, but
fortunately there Is no decline in
travel interest. whether by car
or common carrier"
Further evidence that motor
travellers are figuring out how to
get the most from their money
comes from Janet Shattuck Of
the Minnesota State Automobile
Association. She comments:
with the increase in accommo-
dations. it does not appear the
traveller should have difficulty in
finding what he wants. But in
dicationS are that our members
are planning trips further in ad-
vance and with more care, so
they can get the most for their
money"

there is no lack of ski areas
either. In fact, the State has five

Climate of the State varies
from the warm, dry summertime

of the State enjoys in the winter

But even in the north, the sun
shines brightly and has a warm

to this group of beneficiarieS in
the 12-month period ending with
December 81, 1858 he said. Total
payments to children in this coun-
ty was $10,319, for the month of
January, 1854. In the nation as a
whole, over one million children
were getting total of about
$321a million in monthly payments
in January. Nationwide, over a
quarter of million widowed
mothers were paid a total of over
$912 million
The largest group of benefici-
aries under the social security in
surance program however, con-
tinues to be retired workers, Gil
liotte said. In January 685 such
beneficiaries in Ottawa County
were paid a total of $34,695. This
was an increase of 1925, in toal
payments in a 12-month period.
Gilliotte said that many of us
are inclined to think of Federal
old-age and survivors insurance
under the social security system as
a program for retired workers and
their dependents exclusively. AS
the figures relating to mothers and
children indicate, however, surviv-
ors benefits are an important part
of the program too.
Other beneficiaries on the rolls
in Ottawa Cohnty are wives and
aged dependent husbands of re-
tired insured workers, aged
widows and dependent widowers
of deceased workers, and depend
ent parents who are receiving sur
vivor's benefits. The total of all
beneficiaries in Ottawa County re-
ceiving monthly benefit payments
in January was 1912, Gilliotte said.

PLANT INFORMATION?

I would appreciate it If
someone could tell me about
the flower called Might
Blooming Ceres" I have had
one several years and this
summer is the first time it has
ever bloomed. It had three
blooms, each one blooming
about 2 weeks apart. It
bloomed for one night only
and it was near midnight
when it bloomed. Is this typical
Of this flower, or should it
have bloomed longer? VIII
it bloom each year now that it
has started? I heard chat it
is a sacred plant with religious
symbols. I am very interested
in it and will appreciate any
information on it.
Also, can someone send in
the recipe for the plant that
is made with coal, nlucing or
mercurochrome? I don't know
the name Of it but 7 would like
to start one right away.

KEEP BROWN SUGAR,
REMOVE STAIN?
(MrS. f. NJ. RPthPSdnl


! am a faithful reader Of
RCH and have had some very
good advice from it. I now
have a small contribution and
a question. The suggestion is
for keeping brown sugar soft.
I wrap the carton of sugar in
aluminium foil, pressing the
foil around the carton to form
sort of an outer casing that
will stand upright on the shelf.
This has kept it soft for me.
My question is this. How can
one take perfume stains from
the top of a blond wood dress
ing table? Or from any shade
OF wood for that matter.
Thank you.
