Plain facts
about beef
• Shoppers have confidence in beef graded by the U.S. Gov't.
• The higher the grade the more tender the beef.
• The highest grades are U.S.D.A. Choice and Prime.
• The overwhelming shoppers favorite is U.S.D.A. Choice.
• U.S.D.A. Choice beef is flavorful and Naturally Tender.
• Pantry Pride sells U.S.D.A. Choice beef... exclusively.
• Not all beef is graded by the government.
• Some stores sell beef that is not government graded.
• Some stores add artificial tenderizers to their beef.
• Beef graded U.S.D.A. Choice needs no tenderizers.

McKinley in 1896, and the
election of Franklin D.
Roosevelt in 1936. All five
elections took place at
particularly pressing times and
all had lasting consequences.
Dr. Keith Melder, the
researcher and organizer of the
exhibition, defines a “critical
election” as having one or
more of the following
characteristics: a response to a
significant event, either a
political or economic change;
the emergence of major issues;
an obvious contest between
political parties or shifts in
party alignments; or the
appearance of new national
leaders. Not all these factors
are present in each of the
elections, but each produced a
Presidential Administration
that had far-reaching effects
upon our country.
Different types of political
memorabilia that were used
during each of the five
elections are an integral part of
the exhibition, such as an old
campaign ribbon for the
Federalist party, entitled the
Washington Benevolent
Society. An appeal is being
made in the Augusta area for
locally-owned campaign
buttons, posters, sheet music
and the like. They do not have
to be connected to the five
elections in the exhibit, but are
expected to add local interest
to the Smithsonian collection.
Exhibit sponsors may be
reached by individuals wishing
to lend such artifacts by calling
738-1645 or 733-2661.
Coordinating the exhibit will
be Ellen Schwarzbek of the
Museum staff and Betty Frank
of the League of Women
Voters.

can develop close, intimate
communication and affection
for each other, this is the best
antidote for loneliness and
depression,” Dr. Kelly said.
“Every couple who can
develop a genuine relationship
with affection will find their
sexual expressions will become
a deeply satisfying part of their
total relationship. Those who
loudly proclaim total sexual
freedom are denying
themselves the right to
experience a beautiful, lasting
relationship involving loyalty,
affection and commitment”
But you can’t have it both
ways, according to Dr. Kelly.
“Marriage cdunsfelors,
sociologists and psychologists
are clearly stating that
noncommital sexual affairs
produce less personal
satisfaction than unions which
have emotional involvement
and are based on
commitment,” he declared.
“Os course, there will always
be individuals who philosophy
is to live a lifestyle without
marriage. If these individuals
are to experience sex without
reservation, it will have to be
with others who have the same
lifestyle. To involve a married
person breeds complications.”
In the interviews Dr. Kelly
conducted in writing the book,
he found that no matter how
despondent a subject might
have been about a failure in his
love life, he always looked to
the future with confidence that
the next relationship would be
much better.
“People want to have good
intimate relationships with the
opposite sex, but -- if we are to
believe the divorce statistics -
at least half of them don’t
know how to achieve it,” he
said.
In his book, he gives some
suggestions for developing a
good relationship.
“Form the habit of
expressing appreciation of a
mate’s desirable characteristics,
or - in other words - tell him
when he does something you
like,” he said.
“Be honest and sincere in
what you do and say. If the
communication is of a nature
that it cannot be said honestly,
then it’s probably better to
leave it unsaid.”
“Never anticipate that a
mate will feel the same about
related occurrences in different
situations. For instance, if your
wife’s mother, whom she loves
dearly, calls and says she’s
coming for dinner in 10
minutes, there’s a difference in
response to when you bring
dinner guests home without
giving her adequate notice.”
It’s a series of little
irritations that build to make
big problems in close
relationships, he’s convinced.
“Always keep in mind that
an argument has two sides,” he
said.
“Nothing can inhibit
communication more than to
have one party assume an
immovable position on an
issue. One closed mind insures
loss of communication that
might otherwise have led to
