It's Here!
The Amazing ''Tappan"
EIecHrOnic
Range
BAKE APPLES IN 4 MINUTES in A COLD oven!
Mcrowove Cooking Hos These Unique Advantages!

ECONOMY: Because cooking time is
fraction of that required by ordinary
methods, energy consumption IS much
lower also Left-overs can be reheated
conveniently and with negligible loss OF
moisture Partially stale pastries can &C
tually be "freshened" in few seconds.
CONVENIENCE: Absence of heat elm
mates need for use of hot pads, and pro-
videS pleasant cool-cooking comfort All
cooking is done at convenient waist-high
level. All controls are at convenient eye
level. Amazing speed, automatic shutof,
ease of cleaning and pot washing, sim
plicitv of operation all combine to make
Tappan electronic range the ultimate in
convenience
SAFETY: Again, absence of heat eliml-
mates danger of burned fingers that would
result from touching hot surfaces. Chill
dren may be permitted to cook to their
hearts content, with complete safety, on
a Tappan electronic range.
IMPROVED FLAVOR: Cooking with ex-
IRENE speed retains the natural moisture
and flavor of foods. Vegetables have that
garden fresh" taste--meats are juicy and
favorful. Eating becomes new delight
when food is cooked by microwave energy.

Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1957-03-31

SPEED: Cooking in a Tappan electronic
range with microwave is amazingly fast
potato bakes in minutes; an egg cooks
in 20 seconds; a 5-lb roast is done in 80
minutes. compared to over 3 hours required
by usual methods. A pre-cooked frozen
meal can be thawed and ready to serve
in about minutes.
GOODNESS: Heat is generated only in the
food itself--not in the utensil or in the
oven.
SIMPLICITY: No temperatures to remem-
ber-just turn the dial to the proper
interval of time! Life takes on new con-
cept OF leisure when microwave cooking
takes over with a Tappan electronic
range
EASE OF CLEANING: Many foods-such
as bacon-can be cooked on paper plates
that are discarded after use. eliminating
washing entirely Foods that spatter can
be covered with paper towel to eliminate
need Of cleaning oven walls. Because there
is no heat in the range, nothing is burned
on the utensils, they can be merely scraped,
and put into the dishwaSherl Most foods
can be served in the dishes in which they
are cooked The hardest part OF dishWash-
ing--scouring the cooking utensils--is
completely eliminated.

Treatments by Novelists
"Novelists go beyond SYM

ter" Mr.. Luchs said. "They
have more than a feeling for
their characters. They feel with
them. They get inside their
characters, so that we see them
as real persons"
He then asserted a good nov
elist shows the things that
make "the sinner a sinner"
while a theologian "gives you
sermon outlines, but he does
not give you life"
This is exactly the point
where the value of novel read

ing to very human congrega-
tions. The great theological
thoughts are apt to be lost I'M
less the preacher has the gift
Of translating them into hui
man interest terms. A brilliant
sermon for ministers might
very well prove a dud for ordi-
nary laymen. The pastor who
has immersed himself in great
literature. and for pulpit pur-
poses especially great fiction,
may well use the inspiration of
a character or story to bring
to his congregation the spirit
ual message of a leading theo-
logan.

Of q clergyman who did what
we were talking about above,
and in the process wrote one of
the worlds all-time best sellers.
DR.. Charles M. Sheldon was
a discouraged young minister
of Central Congregational
Church, Topeka, Kan, in 1891
when he decided to read a con-
tinued story at Sunday evening
services.
1--WE preached my last Sun
day evening sermon" he told
his mother one Sunday night
after facing a practically nom
existent congregation. Next
Sunday I am going to read the
first chapter of a continued
story. I already have the plot
in mind and I'm going to start
putting it on paper"
The first story Sheldon told
became the novel Richard
Bruce" published in 1891.
Church attendance picked
up. BY the time the minister
read the now famous In His
Steps" five years later, crowds
regularly damned the church
for Sunday evening services.
I'm His Steps" tells about a
church group pledged to live
as Jesus would" for one year.

The Phoenix Jewish news., 1957-04-12

PASSOVER rs marked by the
Jews because of the Exodus from
Egypt, following constant persecu-
tion of the Jews by Egypt's Phar-
aoh. It is, therefore, easy to call
NasSer a modern Pharaoh.
Thus, it is Illuminating for to-
days Jews, uneasy about ISraels
ability to withstand Egypt support
ed by Soviet Russia, to study jew
iSh history in order to understand
what happened in the days which
brought about the first Passover.
Professor Louis Ginzberg, one of
the foremost Jewish scholars of
the Goth century, retellS many leg
ends in his Legends Of the Bible" "
Many of these tales are not only
fascinating; they lead us to under
stand what is going on in the Mid
die East now with perhaps more
insight than we can obtain else
where.
"THE REASON for the hatred of
the Egyptians was envy and fear"
Professor GinSberg tells us in the
section Moses in Egypt" How
modern this seems to us today!
Israel, peaceful and eager to make
new homes for hundreds of thou
sands of immigrants who came to
the land after the holocaust in Eu-
rope, created a state that was the
envy of the feudal rulers who ad-
mired Jewish activity and feared
that the ignorant peasants of the
region might learn what was devel-
oping in Israel and would want
some improvement of their own
Incredibly poor lot.
When finally the Jews won the
right to leave Egypt under Moses,
"the hatred Of the Egyptions to-
ward the Israelites," the legend
has it, changed now into its op-
posite. They conceived affection
and friendship for them, and fairly
forced raiment upon them, and
jewels of silver and jewels of gold,
to take along with them on their
journey.
WHY? PROFESSOR Ginsberg
remarks: "This action is in part
to be explained by the vanity Of
Pharaoh and his people. They de-
sired to pretend before the world
that they were vastly rich, as
everybody would conclude when
this wealth of their mere slaves
was displayed to observers"
The timelinesS Of this comment
strikes us, for Nasser Is himself a
