Corn and Cauliflower Fritters:
Sift together one cup flour, one
teaspoon salt and one teaspoon
baking powder. Add one-half cup
milk and two well-beaten egg
yolks. Fold in two stiffly-beaten
egg whites. Add the contents of
a No. 1 can of whole kernel corn,
and one-half cup cauliflower (sepa
rated into small flowerlets and
boiled until tender in salted
water). Drop by spoonfuls into
hot fat 375° —and fry until
brown. This makes about sixteen
fritters.*
Fruit Compote Cold Cereal
Meat Cakes with Tomato Sauce
Southern Corn Dread Coffee
It’s all plain sailing to make,
except the fruit compote, but in
order to have that cool and de
licious, you should begin its prepa
ration the night before. Here’s
the way to go about It:
Fruit Compote: Cut the peel
from a grapefruit and remove the
sections with a knife, discarding
all the white fibre. Sprinkle with
one-fourth cup confectioners
sugar, and let chill over nighty
Also chill the contents of an S
ounce can of apricots. In
morning put sections of
fruit and halves of apricots in
glasses, combine the
and pour over. Serves six.
THE JACKSON HERALD. JEFFERSON, GEORGIA
WHAT IS A KILOWATT HOUR?
What is a Kilowatt Hour? What
does it do for you? You’ve paid for
them on your electric light bill, but
how many times have you said to
yourself that you just didn’t under
stand the meaning of a “Kilowatt
Hour.”
It is really quite simple: “Kilowatt
Hour” is a unit of measurement.
Just like a quart of milk, a yard of
cloth, a peck of potatoes, or a pound
of meat. That’s all—just a conven
ient unit to measure the amount of
electricity you use in your home each
month.
Most people are bothered most by
the fact that they can’t see a “Kilo
watt Hour”—can’t measure it with
thir eye like a quart, a peck bra
pound.
That’s true. You cant see elec
tricity at work—no one ever has—
but you can measure the worth it
does for you.
One Kilowatt Hour will operate
your electric refrigerator for about
12 hours; it will run your washing
machine for 5 hours, and it will offer
the protection of a small 20 watt
night lamp for 50 hours.
According to Charles M. Ripley,
well-known engineer of the General
Electric Company, one Kilowatt
Hour is the equivalent of thirteen
men or women working unceasingly
at hard labor for one hour.
LEGALIZED BEER
The country is exceedingly work
ed up over the return of beer—much
more so, in our opinion, than results
will warrant. There can be no parti
cular objection on the part of reason
ing people to a trial of legalized
beer control, but no one need be de
luded by any hopes that such a trial
will solve the liquor problem or even
produce the extensive tax revenues
that are predicted for beer at the
moment. We believe those who ex
pect great things through the return
of beer are doomed to disappoint
ment. After the first rush to test
the legalized brew the novelty will
wear off quickly and therefore beer
will be merely legalized beer and
little, if anything, else.—Dawson
News.
$25,000 RAIN DAMAGE
FOR THOMAS COUNTY
Thomasville, Ga., April 14.—As
late reports come in from various
parts of this county indications are
that the damage caused by the heavy
rainfall of last Tuesday following
the all-day rain of the Sunday pre
vious, will probably exceed $25,000
with the possibility of approximat
ing $35,000 or more. This damage
is accounted for by the fact that it
will be necessary tb do much replant
ing of crops, especially young corn,
truck and other plants which had
just begun to grow.

Fatality Follows Quarrel Over Debt
Dtthloncga, Ga.—A quarrel over a
debt allegedly owed him by Crayton
Anderson resulted Tuesday in the
death of Ben Chester, 21. Police
said the quarrel started when Ander
son accused Chester of saying that
the debt was “no good.” Anderson
shot Chester four times, police re
ported, killing him instantly. He
leaves a wife and one child.
South Georgia Ham Weigh* 110
Pound*
Waycross.—J. A. Martin, Way
cross live stock enthusiast who ha3
killed some of the biggest hogs in
south Georgia during the past few
years, has again flooded the local
pork and ham market.
At his new stock farm near Pat
terson, where he recently moved
from Gilchrist Park, several days
ago he killed a Duroc Jersey hog
that weighed 820 pounds dressed—
and if you don’t think that’s a real
hog, ask the folks who have to
butcher one of ’em.
The hams weighed 105 and 110
pounds, respectively, the shoulder
125 and 127 pounds, and the head
67 pounds.
Mr. Martin has launched exten
sively into the production of pure
bred hogs, having stocked his mod
ern farm with Duroc Jerseys.
Seeks Lost Son
Athens, Ga.—A mother, seeking
the return of her 13-year-old son
who has been missing since April 4,
has appealed to President Roosevelt
to help find her boy.
Mrs. Bessie Chandler of Athens,
through the Athens Banner-Herald,
has asked the President to help her
find her son, Norbun, and aid in re
turning to their homes other missing
youths in the South.
If Moveable Not Part Real Estate
Atlanta. —Machinery not actually
attached but movable at the pleasure
of its owner does not become a part
of the real estate on which it is lo
cated, the supreme court ruled in a
Bibb county case today.
E. J. Sawyer, who had obtained
possession of deeds to a certain prop
erty in Macon given as security for
debts owed by Foremost Dairy Pro
ducts, Inc., was denied an injuction
to prevent the dairy concern from
dismantling its plant and moving it
off the property; the high court up
held the decision.
He Must Dig Dirt
Hyannis, Nebr., April 15. —For the
next sixty days the life of Herb
Cook, Whiteman, Nebr., is likely to
be just one spadeful of dirt after
another. Cook, charged with wife
beating, pleaded guilty in County
Court here and was sentenced to 60
days at hard labor. Judge Kreamer
ordered that in case there was no
other work available Cook must dig
a hole eight feet square, next day
dig another and fill the first hole, and
each succeeding day transfer the
dirt from one to the other of the
holes.
Chicken Hawk Attacks Farm Wife
In Lamar
Barnesville, Ga. —Mrs. John Kea
dle, wife of one of Lamar county’s
leading farmers, of Redbone district,
saw a hawk swoop down among her
chickens. She ran out to shoot it a
way. The hawk attacked her, sinking
its claws in her right forearm.
All attempts to loosen its hold fail
ing, she screamed for help and a
negro man iff a near-by field came to
her assistance. He also failed to
loosen the claws of the bird, and
finally went into the house and got a
butcher knife, with which he cut off
the hawk’s head. Mrs. Keadle’s arm
was badly torn.
Bulldog Sinks Pride When Need Is
Urgent
Valdosta, Ga.—Elish Simpson’s
proud, strutting bulldog knows when
it’s time to call for human aid and
to that knowledge he owes his life.
“Tunney”—that’s his name—was
foraging in a field and a huge cot
ton-mouth moccasin bit him. ‘‘Tun
ney” had never called upon anybody
for help—he was that sort of in
dependent dog—but this time things
were different.
Climbing atop a stump, he held
his injured foreleg in the air and
barked with all his might.
Simpson was some distance away
but he heard and came running. Then
“Tunney” led him to the snake which
had coiled again for another strike.
Simpson killed the reptile and
hurried his dog to a doctor.
The spring’s colors are yellow and
green and they may be cleverly in
troduced into foods such as frozen
salads and desserts made in your
electric refrigerator.
CROP LOAN BORROWERS MUST
GROW GARDENS
The federal government in the
passage of the bill authorizing a loan
of $1)0,000,000 to the farmers of the
United States in 1933, realizing the |
vital importance of food and feed
crops in the general farm program,
incorporated in the act a provision
that the applicant for a loan must
sign an affidavit to grow a garden,
and to plant a sufficient acreage of
feed and food crops to maintain the
home and the farm. The applicant
must further agree to provide chick
ens, hogs and a cow that the expense
of maintaining the home may be
minimized.
It is false economy to try to grow
our major cash crops to sell that we
may purchase the necessary food and
feed to produce another crop. In
passing on the applications for loans
for crop production in the Washing
ton office we are told by the authori
ties that the possession of a cow,
chickens, hogs and a garden go a long
way in determining whether or not
u loan is approved or disapproved.
THE MILK IN THE COCONUT
Representative J. H. Jenkins, of
Dooly county, rises in his wrath to
protest against criticism of the re
cent legislature, and as a climax sums
up the situation thus:
“I seriously doubt that any group
of men can take the following ele
ments and stir them for 79 days
and get any better results than the
General assembly recently adjourn
ed: The highway board; the political
ambitions of Ed Rivers, Roy Harris
and Hamp McWhorter; the railroad,
bus and truck lobbyists and lawyers;
disgruntled politicians; disappointed
job seekers; the farm block; the uni
versity and public school lobbyists;
the dairy lobbyist; the newspapers;
Bill Stokes and his walking stick;
Tom Linder and his lamp shade; the
ever present Charlie Stewart; Gene
Talmadge and his tag; the spirit of
Dick Russell; the banks and their
dilemma, and the depression. Think
these things over before you criti
cize.”-—Charlton County Herald.
HOPE
In hope we lift our eyes unto the
hills
Whence comes our help in every time
of need;
Their very height will lift our sight
and lead
Away from greed, the worst of
earthly ills.
Let us rejoice in light that never
fails
God’s children who renew their trust
each day,
In love that inward light whose joy
ous ray
Dispels the gloom and shows the
upward trails.
To every weary pilgrim of the night
There comes the morning star of
heavenly hope;
No more in darkness let us blindly
grope,
But look unto those happy hills of
light.
There memory and hope in love will
blend,
And joy and peace and love will
never end!
—Exchange.
A LITTLE PRAYER YOU SAID
It was a little prayer you said
That made the dark seem kind.
It summoned angels to my bed,
And bright thoughts to my mind.
The dawn, that I foresaw with dread,
Comes, banishing the dark.
Perhaps a little prayer you said
Has lighted faith’s bold spark.
Perhaps a little prayer you said
Has helped me see the dawn,
For hearts by prayer are comforted
And strengthened to go on.
—Exchange.
CAN YOU SOLVE THIS?
Repeated requests for more and
more and still more conundrums,
problems, riddles, etc., of one sort or
another, inspires the submission of
an old teaser that bobs up every now
and then. Here it is:
A man deposits SIOO in a bank.
Withdraws SSO, balance SSO.
Withdraws S2O, balance S3O.
Withdraws sls, balance sls.
Withdraws $ 9, balance $ 6.
Withdraws $ 6, balance $ 0.
Withdrawals, $100; balance, slOl.
How come and why the discrep
ancy—that, boys and girls, is the
riddle for you to work out. ....
Lionel Reno, the mathematical mar
vel, publishes the problem in his
booklet, “Mental Knots,” and as an
answer suggests only that “you use
a little gray matter!”—Ralph Smith,
in Constitution.

PRIVATE ZOO OF ASA CANDLER
IS TARGET FOR TAX
Atlanta, Ga.—A SIOO tax for each
day Asa G. Candler’s private zoo is
opened to the public with an admis
sion charge has been asked by Tax
Commissioner Homer H. Howard of
DeKalb county.
The tax commissioner said his de
mand for taxes was based on a ruling
by the Attorney General under a
state law that imposes a tax of SIOO
a day on all shows and exhibitions
charging admission in or near cities
of more than 50,000 population.

CITY TAX HOLIDAY IS ORDERED
IN FAIRBURN
Fairburn, Ga. —The finance com
mittee of city council here has for
the second consecutive year declared

water fees and other municipal re
venue will be sufficient to operate
the government through 1933.
LEARNING TO DRIVE A CAR
Hoping my experience in trying to
learn how to drive a car may be
helpful to all would-be drivers, I am
passing these instructions to all
whom they may concern.
“Now, Sallie, we are all ready, go!
“You just turn the little jigger
over, and push on the hickey with
your left hand and pull down on that
other little what-you-may-call-it with
your right, then press down hard on
the doodad with your foot, and pull
the thingumbob at the same time,
and* when it starts, you push down on
i the doofunny with your left foot,
and yank the humpty-dumpty back,
then let up on the footabus, and put
your, left hind foot on the hickey
madoodle and be sure not to forget
to push down good and hard on the
horn every time you move the steer
ingabus, and learn how to stop the
car before you start it, and you’ll
be going some, and all honkey-don
key, do you see?”—Toccoa Record.
TO A LITTLE BOY
The little things you do and say
Are gone with every passing day—
Or so it seems, my darling, yet
I know I never shall forget.
Somewhere within my secret heart—
Under the hopes that break apart,
Under the shadow of the years,
Under my laughter and my tears —
Somewhere the little lonely things
That touch my life with fragile
wings—
A question in your eyes—a cry—
And you* 1 first smile, and your first
sigh—
Somewhere I know all these remain
Heavy with sweetness and with pain,
And though you change—a small boy
can—
Quite suddenly into a man,
Then never doubt 1 shall recall
When you were really very small
And brought me stones and sticks to
keep,
And ran to laugh with me, or weep.
So if within the man I see
A little boy—ah, bear with me;
For though it may be quite amiss,
A mother’s heart is made like this!
—Mary Dixon Thayer.
MOTHER HAS NOTHING,
SHE HAS BABY SISTER
Truly illustrative of childhood’s
proportionate valuation of thihgs
dear to them, and of the tremendous
importance they attach to an event
transpiring at a certain age of their
existence, we quote the following
conversation which occurred over the
telephone the other day between a
Gainesville woman and a little girl:
“Hello.”
“Hello, who is that?”
“This is Mary.”
“Is your mother there?”
“Yes’m, she’s here.”
“May I speak to her a moment?”
“No’ ma’am.”
“Is she sick?”
“Yes, ma’am.”
“What has she got?”
“She ain’t got nothing. I ot a
little sister.”—Gainesville News.
