PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT
PIES
Every cook is proud, and rightly
so, of a pie crust that is flaky and
tender. Perfect pastry shatters
rather than crumbles when you bite
into it, giving rise to the “melts in
the mouth” description often ap
plied to a really good pie.
Accurate measurements and a lit
tle practice will produce a good pie
crust. Only by practice does one
learn how much or how little hand
ling of the dough is necessary for
best results.
tt t t
PLAIN PASTRY
2 1-2 clips sifted flour.
3-4 teaspoon salt.
2-3 to 3-4 cup shortening.
1-3 cup cold water.
Mix and sift flour and salt; cut in
shortening with knives or pastry
blender until mixture is like coarse
sand. Add water in small amounts
to dry material, stirring lightly with
a fork and tossing aside pieces of
dough as soon as they are formed.
Use only enough water to make par
ticles hold together. Shape lightly,
wrap in towel or waxed paper and
chill thoroughly. Roll dough 1-8
inch thick. Yield: pastry for one
two-crust pie or two shells.
PLAIN PASTRY USING SELF
RISING FLOUR
2 cups sifted self-rising flour.
4 tablespoons shortening.
Make according to directions giv
en above.
tt t t
LEMON JUICE PASTRY
Anew idea in pastry making is
the addition of lemon juice and one
slightly beaten egg to the funda
mental ingredients. Here’s the
recipe for this new pastry:
3 cups sifted flour.
1 teaspoon salt.
1 cup shortening.
1 slightly beaten egg.
3 tablespoons lemon juice.
Ice water.
Sift flour and salt together. Cut
in shortening. Add egg, combined

Relief At Last
For Your Cough

trouble to help loosen and expel germ
laden phlegm, and aid nature to soothe
and heal raw, tender inflamed bronchial
mucous membranes. Tell your druggist
to sell you a bottle of Creomulsion with
the understanding you must like the
way it quickly allays the cough or you
are to have your money back.

CARAMEL PIE
2 cups dark brown sugar.
2-3 cup flour.
1 teaspoon salt.
4 eggs.
1-2 cup caramel syrup.
3 tablespoons butter.
3 tablespoons milk.
Blend the sugar with the flour,
the yolk of the eggs, the salt and
the caramel syrup. Make the syrup
by caramelizing sugar or use the
prepared syrup bought in a bottle.
Add the butter and the milk and
cook the mixture over boiling water
in the top of a double boiler. Stir
often and cook until the mixture is
thick and creamy.
Beat the whites of eggs until
they are stiff and fold about 1-4 of
them into the mixture. Pour into a
baked pie crust.
Beat the rest of the whites with
1-3 cup sugar until thick and
creamy. Spread over the top of the
pie. Bake for 15 minutes in a mod
erate oven. Cool and serve.
CARAMEL SYRUP
This makes about 3 cupfuls. It
may be made and kept for several
weeks. Put it in a bottle or a jar
with a cover.
Place 3 cups of sugar in a large
skillet over a slow fire. Stir the
sugar constantly as it melts. Con
tinue cooking until the sugar burns
slightly. Stir into the melted sugar
3 cups of boiling water. Be sure the
water is boiling and stand back from
the stove as you pour—for the syrup
will spatter. Stir and cook the mix
ture until it is the consistency of .
medium syrup.

TRUST
Strength for the day is all we need,
As there never will be a tomorrow,
For tomorrow will be but another
day
With its measure of joy and sor
row
Then why be forecasting the trials
of life
With so sad and so grievous per
sistence?
Why anxiously wait for the com
ing of ills
That may never have an existence?
Far better to trust to the wisdom
and love
Of the providence ever beside us,
With no anxious thought what the
future may bring
For He guides all events that betide
us.
As in mercy He guides every bird
in its flight
And gives to each lily its beauty
He will surely provide for our every
need
If we trust and are faithful in duty.

HIDING MONEY
Macon, Ga. —When stock ex
changes collapsed in 1929, Bob Mc-
Cord, president of one of the Macon
banks, estimated that half of the
currency in Macon had been gone
into hiding, because people had lost
confidence in banks. Recently an
old home was broken up, and the old
treasures were sold for a song. A
man paid ten dollars for a pile of
the junk that had been accumulating
through the years; in it was a stuff
ed parrot. The parrot was given to
the children to play with; and they
naturally tore it to pieces to learn
how it was made. Tucked away in
side was five hundred dollars in bills.

Atlanta, Ga. —There’s a contro

Banks are refusing to lend the
state the money unless Talmadge
will agree to guarantee the obliga
tion. Notes given by the state would
have to be repaid under the forth
coming Talmadge administration.
State school officials are worried,
saying funds which should have been
in their hands October 15 were stil'
lacking.

for low cost houses and small rental
appartments can be expected as a re

CUSTOMER YIELDS TO CON
SCIENCE AFTER HOLDING
$5 FOR 13 YEARS
Macon, Ga.—Thirteen years ago
Miss' Collye E. Brodnax, operatorof
a local beauty shop, lost $5 when
she gave a customer too much
change.
But Friday she got it back again
when the conscience-stricken cus
tomer mailed the $5 to her anony
mously with the explanation: “God
told me to do it.”
The money came in a letter post
marked from Atlanta. Enclosed was
an unsigned note.
The federal census bureau says
more people are riding bicycles to
day than ever before, although it
appears that this is popularly sup
posed to be the age of the automo
biles. In 1939 1,252,029 bicycler,
were manufactured in the United
States, with a value of $22,449,000.
It can truly be said the art of ambu
lation is out of date.
