Cover, Handle, Balance
Important 10 Utensils

Alter choosing the material for
pots and pans, its time to start
thinking about the other features
to look for to make food prepara-
ton easier.
The cover, balance, handle, the
bottom and easy-to-clean fea-
lures are all essentials in making
good choice of pots and pans,
says Miss Mabel Sarbaugh, ex-
tension home management spe-
cialist, the Ohio State University.
Pans will be more efficient if
the bottom surface covers the
burner or heating unit. If the
pan is too small, heat will be lost
or if the pan is too large, heat
will be radiated down to the
range top causing Grazing of the
porcelain enamel. For efficient,
even cooking, pan bottoms should
be flat. Pans used with the new
thermostatically controlled units
and burners must be flat in
order to make contact with the
control. Miss Sarbaugh suggests
that the gauge of a pan be
checked before buying, because
a flat bottom pan that is not of
a heavy guage will warp easily.
The cover should fit tightly
and should have knob that is
easy to grasp. Tieht fitting lids
keep steam in and permit cook
ing with low heat and little
water.
The handle of pan should be
long enough to grasp firmly,
large enough SO fingers are not
cramped in holding the pan,
have no sharp edges, and be
firmly attached so the pan does
not turn. Handles that are too
heavy will cause the pan to tip
over or if the pan itself is too
heavy, handling will be difficult.
Family needs should be kept
in mind for the correct size pan
to purchase, and the homemaker
will be interested in the easy-to-
clean features too. Riveted han
dies and sharp angles where the
side and bottom meet are hard
to clean, advises Miss Sarbaugh.

Your
Election
Lows j.. i.
BY Ted w. Brown
Secretary of State Of Ohio

There are many methods of
keeping the Ohio electorate in
formed on matters pertaining to
elections, such as this weekly
column which so many Ohio
newspapers print.
Another annual opportunity is
the Ohio State Fair.
This year the Secretary of
States booth will .be in a new
location the beautiful new
Buckeye Building at the Ohio
State Fair and the dates are Aug.
% through Sept. 4.
One of the features will be a
center of information for all
voters with special First Vot-
ers' Center" for those who have
turned 81 or will be 81 by the
time Of the November election
and those who have recently be-
come naturalized citizens.
Another feature will be the
demonstration of voting ma
chimes. Those visiting the booth
will be given an opportunity to
try their hand at voting on the
machines, registering their pre-
ference on five hypothetical
questions.
There are now % counties
which use voting machines in all
or part of their polling places.
This leaves 66 counties which do
not use mechanical equipment in
balloting. Therefore, it is evident
that many persons visiting the
fair will undoubtedly see voting
machines operated for the first
time - or better yet, vote on
them.

BEACHCOMBERS WARNED TO
STAY CLEAR OF TARGET

Beachcombers have been warn
ed by Navy Aviation Chief H. A.
Sargent to stay clear of the target
range between Duck village and
Caffeys Inlet C. G. Station.
1.-TWO children have been injur-
ed there recently as result of
picking up live explosives" he
said, Neither of the children were
critically hurt.
We are instructed to warn per-
sons to stay off the range and that
is done along the highway at our
Currituck Sound shores, but it is
impossible with the limited per-
sonnet to keep guards posted along
the beach or in the dunes adjoin-
ing the range.
Chief Sargent is in charge of
the target range at Duck, another
one located north of Corolla and
also the unit stationed at Stumpy
Point. He warns that an object
picked up on the range as SOU
venir may be live ammunition that
failed to explode.
