Some persons suffer from
night blindness which is a
lack of vision at night, or for
that matter, in any dim light.
Persons suffering from night
blindness should certainly
refrain from driving any type
of motor vehicle at night and
immediately seek medical
attention.
This lack of vision is very
often traced to a deficiency of
Vitamin A in the person
affected, although there are
sometimes hereditary
causes.
Modern medical technol
ogy has led to treatment and
correction of night blindness.
We are justifiably proud of

cine. Dispensing of prescrip
tion medicines is our best
business. Let us fill your next

Barbecued chicken is a
favorite with most folks, and
the secret is in the sauce. I
boil the chicken first, then
bake it in the sauce. It
doesn’t dry out, because the
baking time is shorter. This
recipe serves six or seven.
BARBECUED CHICKEN
8 chicken breasts (Boil in
salted water for 25 minutes.)
SAUCE
1 clove garlic (crushed)
cup chopped onion
2 tablespoons butter
'2 cup chili sauce
4 tablespoons lemon juice
3 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon apple cider
vinegar
G cup chopped celery
‘2 cup catsup
1 cup water
1 tablespoon Worcestershire
1 teaspoon dry mustard
Saute’ garlic, onion and
celery in butter until tender.
Add other ingredients and
simmer for 15 minutes.
Butter a long, shallow baking
dish. Place chicken breasts
inside and pour the sauce
over the chicken. Bake at 325
degrees for 1 hour. Baste
chicken 3 or 4 times while
baking.
CARD OF THANKS
Franklin and I would like
to say “Thank You” to
everyone who was so nice to
us during my stay in Georgia
Baptist Hospital and since
my return home. First of all,
thanks for all the prayers
that were uttered for me and
the kind thoughts and the
beautiful flowers. May the
Glory of God be with you
all.—Dorcas and Franklin

PLACEMAT CLEAN-UP
Did you know that you can
salvage straw placemats
that have become too warped
to lie flat. All you need to do
is scrub mats thoroughly in
hot soapy water and then
rinse. Blot dry between
paper towels. Finally weight
the placemats down under
heavy objects and wait a day
or tw'o for the mats to dry.
DONUT MAKERS
Scrumptuous donuts are
great for a family breakfast
and now fresh homemade
donuts are easier than ever.
Several companies now have
"donut makers” on the
market. These appliances
make from two to six donuts
or bagels at a time. Cooking
time depends on the recipe
used. (Recipes come with the
appliance.)
Proper care should be

There has been a lot of talk about interest rates
y ■ lately, and most of it is pretty confusing. Well,
QfP|| T here are the facts: A savings and loan institution
pays higher interest dividends on savings than a
commercial bank. We’re a savings and loan in
flP/irillTQ stitution, and we’re happy to be able to give our
many customers extra dividends. We compound
interest dividends, and they really add up to more
5 m than just peanuts. A lot more than just peanuts.

taken if the appliance is to
work safely and efficiently
for a long time. Most models
have detachable covers and
cords. Always unplug the
cord from the outlet first and
then from the appliance. The
removable cover, but not the
bottom half of the unit, can
be immersed for cleaning. Be
sure to coat even non-stick
interiors with oil before
cooking if the instructions
specify to do so. Keep the
appliance out of reach from
little folks so that an
unfortunate and painful
accident won’t happen at
your house.
