month of June, we think of brides
and all the lovely trimmings that
60 with a June wedding. One of
these trimmings is the luscious
and lovely wedding cake, and
whenever | see one, admire the
skill and dexterity of the person
who baked and decoraed it. We
have lady here in our community
who possesses this talent and be-
lieve me, her ability at doing this
painstaking task is really some
thing. She's Mrs. Ward Sieger, of
rural Graytown. Last night | went
over to her house to watch her
put the finishing touches on a
huge cake that she'd baked for a
wedding reception to be held to-
night. It's four-tiered, large enough
to serve from 600 to 700 people.
She puts each tier on pedestal,
and each is elaborately but very
daintily decorated with wedding
bells, pale pink and white roses,
rose buds, tiny blossoms, pale
green leaves, besides all the
swirls and scallops made of that
luscious white frosting. 1t is really
somthing to watch her make these
roses from frosting, they are ex-
quisite and perfectly formed.
The cake itself is white, she
bakes the cake one day and deco
rates it the next. When she be-
gins to frost the layers, she Gov
ers them with thin layer of icing
to seal in the crumbs, then she
goes over the cake with another
layer of frosting. This icing that
Jean makes is really good, after
its on the cake, it gets firm
outside crust, but on the inside
it's just as soft and creamy as
can be, even the roses, some OF
them 2 to 2h inches in diameter,
are made that way
Jeans cakes are getting to be
more in demand all the time, she
also bakes birthday and anniver-
sary cakes, she baked one of these
g"open-book" cakes for a couple
who were celebrating their fiftieth
wedding anniversary while back.
I guess as long as folks have
that sweet tooth, and as long as
they like to satisfy it by eating
cakes at celebrations, Jean will be
busy baking some of these cakes.

DAVID LAWRENCE

The ttrob Of o single heart,
its sudden deviation from the
normal, was enough over the
week end to change the whole
face Of public affairs from one
Of calm serenity to anxiety and
uncertainty.
For the possible absence Of
the nietaphorical heart Of
Dwight Eisenhower-the man
Of kindness and compassion,
the man whose depth Of under
Outstanding and spirit Of con-
citation have won world re-
nown-brought grave concern
to millions Of people In this
and foreign lands.
Sometimes 1t takes the shock
Of change to bring an aware
ness Of the meaning Of the
past.
Few thought In 1852 that a
man whose life had been dedi-
Gated to the art Of war would
become the man Of peace to
whom nations felt drawn with
q yearning that he might ac-
complish what others had
failed to do.
Few thought, moreover, that
q man whose career had been
deliberately detached from poll
itics could understand popular
currents and flnd himself the
most popular figure, politically
speaking, Of q half century in
America.
But just as Woodrow Wilson
in 1912 told a hero-worship-
ping nation, which was being
asked to give q third term to
Theodore Roosevelt, that
there is no indispensable
man" so Dwight Eisenhower
this year has been telling the
political leaders of his party
the same thing to correct
their mistaken dependence on
his. own expected candidacy
for reelection.
This correspondent at the
time pointed out that Mr..
Eisenhower was being sensible
as well as modest and that
he understood better than the
veteran politicians the unwis-
dom Of building q party
around one man.

Of the most supreme impor-

II Soviet and American in
spectors are to be admitted to
each others countries, can In
spectors from any other state
or power be refused, or any
state exempted? Premier Bull
ganin, In his letter to the
President, has made a point OF
saying that the inspection
system can hardly be confined
to the United States and
Russia.
The USSR and the United
States are not the only coun-
tries with atomic weapons.
Great Britain has them and
other states may have them
tomorrow.
But, what could be the ef-
feet on the life Of this coun-.
try, its customs, traditions,

inspectors?
