Helps and Hints
For komemakers

Select food that is sure Ia
please and satisfy your ia
mily's appetite. "Be on the
lookout and compare the qua.
lily and price of food items. ,
says Miss Marion DeRoche
Home Demonstration Agent
Middlesex County Extension
Service.
Here are a few suggestions
on how to get the most re-
turn for your food dollar. Plan
and shop more carefully. You
can easily spend less and, still
serve tasty and nutritious
meals to your family.
Watch the food counters !.
choose leafy. green and yell
low vegetables that are in
season. They are usually at
top quality and are less ex-
pensive when most plentiful.
Be economy and flavor wise
use up even the celery
leaves in your tossed salads.
Carrots are a good bargain f. !.
serve them raw as carrot
sticks or cooked along with
the main course. Remember
to use the leafy tops of young
beetS and turnips cook
them like spinach for their
best flavor.
The supplies Of beef and
pork in the grocery store are
good. Prices of some of the
cuts are q few cents higher
but many can be served at an
economical price per serving.
Consider the amount of bone
and fat when buying meat in
relation to price.
Face rump. top and bottom
OF round, and chuck are am
ong the good beef choices
this week. Try beef, pork. or
lamb liver for spring meals
+. extra good served with
sauteed onions.
For variety serve some
of the cuts of pork with a
tasty barbecue sauce or try
apple or pineapple slices on
top of pork chops. Your fa-
mily will enjoy a stuffed roast
loin or a fruit glaze on a pic
mic shoulder or ham for Sun
day dinner.
You are paying for the fat
on the meat you buy SO
save 1t. Use 1t up In cooking
and seasoning foods.
Yes, you too can spend less
on food and serve delicious
meals to your family.

vide a headache for many

Beauty Hints
BY NINA TEMPLE

BY NINA TEMPLE
Some women. are built upon
the curveacious plan: for
them, slenderness is hurtful.
They can only reduce so much
before they enter into decline.
Therefore, be wise and under
stand the tendency of your
figure and keep within the
realms of your weight pro-
portion, using EPSON Salts
baths and massage over the
too fleshy areas which will
help to Slenderize sensibly.
Keep this in mind: 1t is better
to be healthy, somewhat cur
veacious and alive than, too
slender, ailing or dead.

Tor $6OO TO 81 l,UOU, primarily on
time payments, plus interest.
Those Forfeiting payments lost
all their investments, plus
taxes they had paid while
buying the lots.
About so witnesses were
used by the government, in
cluding about IS victims. en-
gineers and officials from the
Federal Housing Administra-
tion and from California. state
instrumentalities, including
the Division of Highways. The
government was represented
in the successful prosecution
by Norman w. Neukom, chief
trial assistant, and Ray H.
Kinnison, assistant U. S. At
torney of the Office of Laugh
lin E. Waters, U. Attorney for
Los Angeles.
The case established that
the promoters had falsely rep
resented to victims that the
building lots in Rocket Town
would quickly increase in val
ue and could be sold quickly
at great profit.
Witnesses testified that they
had been told through agents
that the federal government
was behind housing develop
mentS to be built at Rocket
Town; that the nearby. naval
station - advertised as about
two miles away - was one Of
the most fabulous scientific
centers in the world with a
payroll of more than a mil
lion dollars a month and that
thousands of workers desper-
ately needed homes, which
soon would make Rocket Town
a City of Tomorrow.
Although FHA refused to ar
range loans on the property,
the promoters, it was estab-
liShed, had represented lot
purchasers could select the
type of buildings to be built
on their lot and cost of con-
struction would be fully finan-
ced by FHA and Continental
Subdivisions; that within a
year purchasers would be re-
ceiving income from rentals of
buildings on their lot; that
within a year lots would in
crease in value three times.
"The striking thing about
these and many other claims
held to have been made false
ly through the promoters and
their agents is that few inves-
tors bothered to Investigate
before paying out their mo-
ney," Mr.. Summerfield COM
mented.
THE postal inspection SER
vice" he added, "is to be COM
mended for their excellent
work in painstakingly audit
ing, checking and investigat-
ing. Then following indict-
ment last year, they detailed
special men to work with the
U. S. Attorney in Los Angeles
to assist in preparation of the
case.
LAS a result of their work
and the successful prosecution
by the U. S. Attorney the pub
lie has been relieved of a ma
ior swindle. Still others can
be prevented if the public will
investigate carefully before in
vesting, and If suspected
frauds are presented promptly
to the proper authorities -

victims of mail fraud present.

There is happiness for every
one provided he knows where
it is to be found and how to
get it. A king once sent out
searchers to find the happiest
person in his domain, he re-
quested that he be brought
the shirt of this person. After
looking over the vast territory
a shoemaker was found and
ne, strangely enough, was the
happiest man. Upon being
asked for his shirt to take to
the king, the man said: Il do
not have a shirt" It does not
take many things, nor fine
things, nor wealth to bring
happiness. All no. Henry Ward
Beeches said that: "The art of
being happy lies in the power
OF extracting happiness from
common things"

THE fraud scheme Of which
these men were convicted Ap-
ril 6, in U. S. District Court at
Los Angeles involved their
purchase for a few thousand
dollars of desolate desert land
and then, according to the
court evidence, dumping mil
lions of pieces of promotional
material in the mails, making
wild claims" Mr.. Summerfield
explained.
Most Of the 5000 persons
who invested all this money,
on time payments, never saw
the land and few made any
worthy Investigations. With
increasing numbers of citizens
planning retirement invest
ments in land, it is more inn
portant than ever that every
one planning real estate in
vestments for the future in
vestigate carefully and make
certain they are dealing with
reputable Dealers" Mr.. Sum-
merfield added.
The following promoters
were sentenced today by Fed
eral Judge Ernest A. Tolin in
u. District Court at Los An
