Antique Shou
Before Election
At East High

The East High Street Club men,
bers were highly entertained at
last Tuesdays meeting when a
program "A Round Table Antique
Show" proved quite interesting as
well as entertaining.
Planning the affair were, Mrs.
w. v. Nichols, Mrs. Dustin L. Mir
ick and Mrs. ]. Robert Tanner,
who mentioned that it was not
possible to single out any one par
ticular article, they were all of
great merit and that the historic
background provided for each an
tique or heirloom, made a pro-
gram of unusual worth.
One event of the afternoon
which brought down the house,
was the announcement by one
member, who, when called upon
for her contribution to the show,
stated simply, Il brought Mrs. X,
my sister"
Preceding the program, the fol-
lowing officers were elected: Mrs.
H. L. Fogel, president; Mrs. B. L.
Adair, first vice president; Mrs.
Everett Roger, second vice presi-
dent; Mrs. Kenneth Phleger, cor
responding secretary; Mrs. Harold
Beathard, treasurer; Mrs. Earl
Terman, historian.

LET'S GO
SHOPPING
by
SHIRLEY LYNN NALL
Madison County Home
Demonstration Agent

Good shopping values for this
week will be found in fresh car
rots, head lettuce, peppers, grape
fruit, pineapple, broilers, and fry
erS; canned beets, corn, apple
sauce, grapefruit juice; and frozen
broccoli, corn, strawberries, and
fish.
The frozen fish story is one that
closely follows the modern trend
of easy-to-fix menu items. Frozen
fish, fillets, steaks and sticks fit
into this category and can be pre-
pared with a minimum of effort
and time by Mrs. Homemaker.
Speaking of forms, there are
three as far as fish are concerned.
Fish forms are fillets, steaks, and
sticks. Fillets are the sides of the
fish cut lengthwise. They contain
Madison County Democrat. (London, Ohio) 19??-1958, 1957-03-12

few bones and are ready for cook
ing. There are two types of fillets.
A single is the most commonly
found and cut from only one side
of the fish. A butterfly includes
both sides of the fish. It cores
ponds to two single fillets held to-
gether by uncut flesh and skin
from the fish's underside.
The second form, steaks, are
cross-section slices of the dressed
fish. Usually larger sizes are used
for making steaks. Steaks are
ready to cook. A cross-section of
backbone is usually the only bone
in steaks.
Fish sticks, another form. are
pieces of fish cut lengthwise or
crosswise from fillets or steaks
into pieces of uniform size.
Frozen fish are available un-
cooked, uncooked with batter or
Dreaded covering, and precooked.
The label will indicate the net
weight of the package. If the fish
have been covered with batter or
Dreaded, the net weight indicated
on the package includes, the weight
of the covering. The covering may
make up as much as one-third of
the net weight. With the wide var
iety of forms in which fish are a
vailable it is often a problem to
decide which one will provide the
most economical eating.
You can compare the cost of the
different forms if you know how
many servings per pound each
form will yield. One pound of
fresh or frozen fish will yield the
following: Whole yields approx
ately l serving, Dressed yields ap-
proximately 2 servings, and steak
and fillet yields approximately 3
servings.
Keep fish frozen until just be-
fore cooking. Once it thaws, use it
Immediately and never refreeze it..
Fillets, steaks and sticks may be
cooked without pre-thawing. How
ever, if they are to be Dreaded or
stuffed, they are easier to handle
if thawed first Thawing at re-
frigerator temperatures is recon-
mended.

words and expressions all about

Words, especially in newspapers

Facing newspapermen in the

the great misunderstanding of

then. They cannot fail now.
LET us sit at our desk deliber-

all the facts and consider what we
have, what faces us, where we can
compromise, where we cannot.
And consider the nature of t h e
people with whom we have to
deal. For we are in contest,
whether we want to participate
or not. We have a good chance of
not losing, for ourselves, or for
our Negro friends. Emotional

Hence, if wheat farmer exceeds
