White had as spend the day guests last Tuesday her daughter Mrs. Grady Wilson and Mrs. Phillip Green both of Decatur and on Thursday another daughter, Mrs. E. M. McCart of Covington spent the day Tips For Range Top Cooking Susan Millsap Home Economist Georgia Power Company The energy-wise cook should take care to see that the surface units of the electric range are used properly for maximum effi ciency. Unlike the oven, the surface units consume energy the entire time they’re in use, unless thermostatically controlled. Here are some tips for economical range-top cook ing: Fit the pan to the correct size heating unit for the most efficient use of energy. A pan smaller than the surface unit wastes heat. The excess space around the pan only heats the air. If the pan is too large for the unit, uneven heating can result and the pan will take longer to heat. Follow the range manufac turer’s suggestions as to which heat settings are best for particular foods. Tight-fitting lids are im portant, too. They prevent heat and moisture from 'escaping. Avoid lifting the pan cover to stir more than is necessary. Instead of boiling water in an open pan, use a tea kettle. Use the highest setting only to start a boil; a lower setting will keep water boiling. Heat only the amount of water needed. Switch controls from high to low as soon as the food begins to cook. Foods cooked at a low temperature will look better, taste better, be more nutritious and cost less to cook. Turn the unit off as soon as the food is done. In some cases, the unit may be turned off shortly before the food is done, allowing it to finish cooking with retained heat. If you use small amounts of water in cooking, foods will heat faster, require less energy and retain more of their nutrients. Best results are achieved with her mother. Guests of Mrs. Emma Yancey, Charles and the Paul Yancey family last Friday were Mrs. Frances Yancey of Chiefland, Fla., Mrs. Elsie McCullough of Atlanta and Mr. and Mrs. Robert Cunard of Jasper County.

They allow more contact with the unit and provide better heat transference than do pans with warped bot toms.

Closed Wednesdays and Sundays Who Needs The Good Old Days?’ jct J ; / 4 The three irons in the left photo all have one thing in common: weight! Valuable antiques today, they once were the latest thing in making ironing “easier.” They were in use in the late 1800s, just before the advent of the electric iron. At the lower left is a char coal iron. Burning lumps of charcoal were dropped into the iron through the opening in front, which was called the “chimney.” A damper ar rangement at the rear allowed the user to make the charcoal burn faster for more heat or slower for less heat. It was known to spit out dust and soot, of course. Tiie iron at the lower right burned alcohol to generate heat. The bulb at the rear is the tank and a perforated rod runs into the iron’s base and jets of flame came from it HROWARE STORES BROODER THE CHILL CHASERS WARMS PIGS, CHICKS, LAMBS, CALVES, PUPPIES.

In addition to alcohol, similar irons actually burned gasoline! The third iron above the charcoal and alcohol models is one of the first electric irons, fating back to about 1900. Although it looks smaller, it weighs about the same as the other two. In the right photo is the latest development in irons, an iron with a man-made jewel. It has a jewel for the same reason watches have jewels, to make it perform better and last longer.
