Meat Grading Is
Shoppers Guide

The inspection stamp and grade
stamp are guides which foodshop-
pers should consider in buying
meat. The round purple stamp
tells the foodshopper that m I
has been graded on the basis of
quality, shape or conformation,
and fat.
The highest quality grade is u.
S. Prime. That is followed in or
der by u. S. Choice. u. S. Good
and u. S. Commercial. Choice and
Good are the most common grades
sold in Ohio retail markets. About
half OF the beef sold in Ohio meat
markets has been government in
spected and graded. Many pack
ers use their own brand name to
indicate grade and degree of quail
ity. =
These facts about meat are list
ed this week by Consumer Food
Marketing Specialists at Ohio
State University to help foodshop-
pers buy meat more satisfactorily.
Roasts are sometimes sold bon
ed with bone rernoved) and roll
ed. Shoppers can expect to pay
higher prices per pound for boned
and rolled roasts. One way to es-
timate how much more such cuts
are actually worth is to allow ap-
proxinately one-third more in the
price for boned and rolled roasts
than for the same cuts with bone
still in. The reason for this is that
these cuts will yield about one
third more servings. pound for
pound, wren boned than with the
bone still in. In other words, the
Marketing Specialists way. if a
pound of standing rib roast will
serve two, a pound of boned and
rolled rib roast should serve three.

Present Plan TO
School Board

Friday, April 20, Rev Melvin
Oehrtrnan of the Lutheran Church
and Rev Robert Meredith of the
Methodist Church met with the
Jefferson Local School Board to
discuss the possibility of released
time" for religious education pro-
gram. Malvern Reuter-, lay mem
Der of the Lutheran Church, was
also present
Prior to the meeting with the
school board. all the local churches
were contacted and presented with
the idea that If released time for a
religious education program could
be arranged. it would provide ad-
ditional specialized training for all
students Interested
The teaching period would be
held in the individuals home"
rhurch, or any one of his choice,
during school hours, with the
church providing the necessary
teachers. -
Released time religious educa-
tion has been arranged in the
northern part of our state and has
been in the educational program of
New York State, as far back as
1912.
In the past there has been some
objection to the present school,
time religious program, 1t is
thought that a released-time pro-
gram could satisfy all faiths and
thereby reach. more children.
Prior to the April 20 school
board meeting, all the local pastors
had stated that a released time re-
hgious educational program would
be acceptable to them. Since there
was no one present at the board
meeting objecting to the present
program, there was no reason for
the school board members to con-
slider the released time religious
education program.

Return From Trip
East And South

Mr.. and Mrs. Fletcher Andrix
and Mr.. and Mrs. Percy Rider re-
turned last Friday evening from q
thirty-five hundred mile trip thr-
ough the eastern and southern
parts of the United States. While
at Gettysburg. the group saw the
Eisenhower farm and, farther east,
the fine Amish farms of Lancaster
County. Baltimore and Washington
were by-passed when the party
went south over the narrow strip
of land known locally as the Eas-
tern Shore.
From Cape Charles, a ferry boat
took the group to Norfolk. On the
following day they went to Fort
Monroe. Yorktown, williamsburg
and the ruins of old jamestown.
Crossing the James River, the
group returned to Norfolk by way
of Smithfield, famous for the fine
Virginia hams, made from pigs
that are fed on peanuts, instead of
corn.
Farther south, the group visited
Kittyhawk. made famous when the
first airplane flight was made by
the Wright Brothers, half cent
ury ago. From Kittyhawk the
party went to Charleston and saw
the once important forts of Stump
ter and Moultrie. Continuing down
the coast as far as Savannah, the
group then turned inland to Way
cross and visited the Okefenokee
Swamp In weSt-central Georgia,
they visited the little village of An
Jacksonville and the nearby site of
the Civil War prison camp who're
fourteen thousand prisoners died in
less than year from starvation,
exposure ard disease.
From Andersonville the group
went to the Great Smoky National
Park, were caught in a blizzard on
Bald Mountain at an elevation of
six thousand three hundred feet
and spent four hours working theic
way slowly down the mountain in
TO Gatlinburg, Tennessee. Next day
the party returned to North Caro-
liza and drove north to Lexington,
Virginia. In the Chapel of Wash
ington and Lee University at Lex
ington, the group saw the tomb of
General Lee and in the museum of
the University, they saw the
mounted skeleton of General Lees
famous horse, Traveller. Farther
north the group visited the homes
of Jefferson, Monroe and Patrick
Henry, then took the Skyline Drive
through the Shenandoah National
Park to Front Royal and then to
Winchester Va, which claims a
unique distinction, in that 1t was
captured and recaptured seventy
three times during the Civil War,
and changed hands four times on
one day.
From Winchester the group came
west over u. S. Route so, crossed
the Ohio River at Marietta and re-
turned home over Route SO by way
of Athens.
