Add a touch of glamor to
vegetables by topping them with
cottage cheese sauce. Blend 5
tablespoons flour into 5 table
spoons melted butter. Add 2cups
milk, cook and stir over medium
heat until thickened. Beat in 1
cup cream style cottage cheese
and add salt and pepper to taste.
For a quick and hearty meal
try cooking pork sausage links
or patties with a tomato or Cre
ole sauce. You can add an extra
touch by serving with toast
points.
For variety, fill centers of
baked apples with peppermint
candies, chopped dates, raisins,
nuts or orange marmalade.
Potatoes, prepared either
creamed or fried on top of the
range, are excellent with broiled
dinners because this permits the
homemaker to use surface units
for cooking vegetables as well
as potatoes.

the Western and Atlantic Railroad, < It is our desire and ambition to go on to a full
century and more of service on the W& A. k Our faith in Georgia continues. We are
deeply dedicated to the competition between railroads that keeps industry expanding,
service efficient, and rates reasonable. All Georgians benefit as Georgia prospers, k
Legislative hearings on the W & A lease were fair and open, and reflected the zeal of
your elected representatives in protecting the State’s interest - and yours. < The
convictions of those supporting Southern -we respect, < The support of those speak
ing so effectively on our behalf - we deeply appreciate. To railroad users, to the rail
road employes, communities and others who supported L & N - our thanks. We
stated to your elected representatives our guarantee of a minimum income of $25 mil
lion dollars for the State between 1970 and 1995 on the W & A under our earnings shar
ing formula and that our offer remains open. We stand firmly on those statements
and all other commitments we make, < We look forward to adding “more rings to
