When baking a banana
bread—make a double rec
ipe. Bake on loaf in a stand
ard loaf pan and divide the
other half of the dough be
tween three miniature, two
by four-inch loaf pans. Do
this each time you try a dif
ferent quick loaf recipe and
you will soon have a variety
of small loaves on hand for
ready reference when an un
expected guest drops in for
morning coffee. Nice for buf
fet brunches, too . . . or for
salad lunches. The baking
time will be the same wheth
er the loaf is large or small.

Maple Street News
Maple Street PT A held
their regular meeting Feb
ruary 21, at the Maple Street

called to order by the Pres
ident, Mrs. Betty Avery. Pre
ceding the program Mrs.
Lois Bailey and Mrs. Joyce
Honea presented a skit ad
vertising the upcoming tal
ent show to be held March
31, at the North Clayton
High School gym. Mrs.
Honea insisted that she be
allowed to sing or dance in
the talent show so she might
win the prize money to help
with a worthy cause. Mrs.
Bailey refused to let Mrs.
Honea perform due to the
fact that she was indeed
much to odl to enter the
contest and couldn’t sing or
dance anyway. This proved
to be a joyful tile for all
present. The program was
the “Founders' Day” and
Mrs. Appenzella, teacher,
presented the building of a
home which includes chil
dren growing up in all areas
of their lives. It was a won
derful program. Following
the PTA refreshments were
served and fellowship en
joyed. Special guests for the
evening were the past presi
dents of Maple Street, Mr. R.
Bowman, Mrs. R. Bowman,
Mrs. Margaret Williams, Mrs.
Leroy Herndon, and Mrs.
Don Bailey. They were hon
ored with a corsage and a
warm welcome. Along with
these were the former Prin
cipal and his wife, Mr. and
Mirs. W. H. Favor who gave a
short talk and stated that It
was old times coming back
to Maple Street. Mr. Ralph
Cooper, Principal at the
present time, extended to all
a welcome to come by the
office anytime to visit with
him and the school.
Mrs. Don Bailey will have
as guests over the week-end
her sister and brother-in
law, Mr. and Mrs. Clarence
Taylor from Tampa, Florida.
They will be on vacation.
The "Fillies” Club met
with Mrs. Marian Smith in
her home on February 20,
for a regular meeting. Busi
ness was conducted by the
president, Miss Brenda Bai
ley. Refreshments were
served and fun enjoyed for
the members present.
The talent show will fea
ture something new this
time for the Maple Street
School. Between the kings
and queens and talent part
there will be a ten minute
intermission for everyone to
stretch and relax before re
turning for the talent. There
will be refreshments to be
bought and during this
time a new band, “The
Rooks” will bring special
entertainment for those who
like this music.
The price for admission
will again be fifty cents for
adults and twenty-five cents
for all school children. This
will Include all high school
pupils also. Something new
again will be the program
which will be sold for twen
ty-five cents and this will
especially be useful for the
door prizes to be given away.
You will not want to miss
this talent show, March 31,
at the North Clayton High
School gym, 7:30 p.m. Dress
rehearsal will be March 30,
7:30 p.m. at the gym. If
there are any questions feel
free to call Mrs. Bailey or
Mrs. Mary Walker or Mr.
Cooper at the school and
help will be given you. Make
plans now to attend this
worthy event and support
the children of the area.

The most worrisome thing
about the possibility of death is
that we cannot expect to receive
the warning many of us require
if we would set our affairs —
and our lives — in perfect order.
It is too much for us to live
the perfect life. We are constant
ly met with challenges and with
temptations.
There is a highway, described
in Holy Writ in figures drawn
from time. We may follow this
road, in faith, and with the grace
of God, and be somewhat secure
in the knowledge that we shall
find an open gate when we come
near the Celestial city that lies
beyond the river of death.
To travel this way, live each
hour with a purpose. On this
present day, make your way of
life along the straight highway
of Christian faith and charity.

THE WEEK’S LETTER:
"Please help me. I have a 16-
year-old brother whom I con
sider almost stupid. When he
comes home he acts like he is the
'boss’ of me and my younger
sister. My mom and dad say
they are through with him when
he is away and that he’s good
for-nothing. But, when he comes
home, they seem to worship him
and to forget about us. When he
bothers us, they never tell him to
stop. They act as if it is our
fault, and I know it is not. When
he’s home, everything he says
'goes’. What can we do but
obey?”
OUR REPLY: When you say
he is "away” do you mean that
he leaves home for a period of
time? This Is rather unusual for

(^^■Y THE OLD TIMtR^
From Joseph T. Hlinak, Chi
cago, Illinois: I remember Chi
cago, 1915. East Water Street
was a lane paved in cobble
stone. Big, lumbering wagons
passed through the district
loaded to capacity — as high as
’ ten tons. Sparks shot off under
i neath the iron-clad hooves of
' horses that strained for a grip
i on the slippery granite.
Ben Turpin, the comic-actor
idol of the day, paid a visit to
I the fire station located there and,
as usual, was accompanied by a
bevy of beautiful girls.
Later that morning I saw
"Buffalo Bill” Cody, the Wild
West show owner. My father
pointed him out. After he told
: me the full story of this living
legend, I was greatly impressed.
The Ambrosia Candy Com
pany was a 'must’ stop. The
owner obviously loved children,
for he always had a box of
sweets to offer.
