BOARD
CONTINUED from Page One)

Meelins also says Stick fouled
up assignments given him on the
Board, and lost to Dare County
some $4,000 by neglecting to exc
cute the county's claim for hurri-
cane damage relief funds that had
been ready for the county, COM
mittee assignment given him at
his request. The chairman also as
signs troubles with the budget to
Sticks 'fknow it all attitude" which
misled some members. He repeated
charges that Stick opposed every
thing advanced for the welfare Of
Mays Head township, from the
residence of Meekins, and because
of his hatred, became discourteous,
insulting and insolent when Meek
ms wouldn't agree to a course of
action which he said Stick demand
ed he follow and would have lost
to the county the Wanchese Harbor
project.
The chairman also said that
Stick had Immediately buddied up
with those who had resisted saw
ing county money, held out for
wasteful spending in some depart
ments, is hell-bent on creating
more departments, and now would
spend lot of money for street
signs for the benefit of real estate
developments.
Meekins said he ought to be
sorry for himself being on the
Board with Stick, and that while
he had expected opposition he
didn't know such a character
existed. He said, / feel more sorry
for Atlantic township which is
stuck with Stick.

Vinegar Handy
In Many Ways

The vinegar that you use in YOU
salad dressings, to tenderize anC
flavor meats, seafood, and fowl
to add piquancy to vegetables
casseroles, sauces, and relishes
and for picking and preserving
is helpful around the kitchen in
many other ways.
Vinegar truly is the homemaker's
helper. There doesn't seem to be
any limit to its versatility.
Take eggs, for example. BY add
ing vinegar to the water you can
boil cracked eggs without having
the white run out of the shell.
Poached eggs will hold firm if you
add vinegar to the water. You also
can remove almost any kind of
spot from an egg if you wipe the
shell with a vinegar-dampened
cloth.
If soup or other food is too salty,
add a spoonful of vinegar and a
spoonful of sugar and reheat.
The odor of boiling cabbage can
be prevented from permeating the
house if vinegar is added to the
cooking water.
If sour milk or e is needed
for a recipe, add one tablespoon
of vinegar to each cup of milk OF
cream
A little vinegar rubbed on your
fingers will remove the odor of
onions from them quickly.
You also can use vinegar to re-
move fruit stains from your hands.
Here's some helpful hints for
cleaning kitchen utensils and
A paste made of equal parts of
flour, vinegar, and salt makes an
cleanser for copper. If
you are in a hurry, a little salt and
vinegar rubbed on the bottom of
pots and pans will make
them shine like new.
Minerals in foods and water
sometimes cause dark stains in
side aluminium utensils. You can
remove these stains by boiling
water to which vinegar has been
added.
Spots on your stainless steel
kitchen equipment can be removed
rubbing the spots with a cloth
in vinegar.
A little vinegar brought to a
boil in a new frying pan will pre-
vent food from sticking to the pan.
To keep your glassware gleam-
add a quarter cup of vinegar
10 your dishwater.
You can open a stopped up sink
Train by pouring a handful of bak-
ng soda down the drain pipe, add
onehalf glass of vinegar, and
covering tightly for about a min
lite.
If tap water has clogged your
team iron, fill it with a quarter
up of vinegar and one cop of
yater and let it stand overnight.
he next day, heat the iron and
emove the mixture. Rinse it with
lear water and the iron will work
Ike new.
To clean your electric iron, re-
dark or burnt spots by rub
ing them with vinegar and salt
Gated in an aluminium pan, then
'olish as you would silver.
