Fresh-from- the-oven bread or rolls are meal tonics hard to beat. If you want to add extra nourish¬ ment to your menus or to give in¬ expensive energy to your family, then the formula is bread—or rolls! They contain carbohydrates, some fat and milk and eggs. Bread can be used lavishly in many interesting ways. A fruited coffee ring for breakfast can mean the difference between a well begun day or a dull, prodding one. And think of the difference between fresh, moist bread in sandwiches for lunch and dry, stale bread. First of all, there’s this scarlet- topped and crystal-glazed quick cof¬ fee cake to start the day right. Or, if you prefer, it will do nicely for dessert, thank you! Cranberry Coffee Ring. (12 Servings) 1J4 cups sifted flour Vi cup sugar 2 teaspoons baking powder Vt teaspoon salt 1 egg Vi cup milk 3 tablespoons melted shortening Cranberry Orange Topping. Sift flour, sugar, baking powder and salt together. Beat egg and add milk and shortening. Stir in dry in¬ gredients, mixing only enough to moisten them. Spread topping even¬ ly over the bottom of a ring mold. Pour batter over topping. Bake in a moderately hot (425-degree) oven for 25 minutes. Cranberry Orange Topping. 3 tablespoons melted butter 1 teaspoon grated orange rind Vi cup sugar lVt cups whole, raw cranberries Mix together in order given and use it as directed above. Now that cheese is plenti¬ ful and unra¬ tioned, it’s a good idea to use it for main dishes and desserts, too. With plump, red¬ cheeked apples and cheese, you can make this delectable dessert: Cheese-Apple Cobblerettes. (Serves 6-8) 2 cups sifted flour 3 teaspoons baking powder Vi teaspoon salt Vi -1 cup nippy grated cheese 2-4 tablespoons shortening %-?4 cup milk LYNN SAYS Bread Baking: For baking bread and rolls, the oven should be fairly hot. On gas, electric or oil ranges, the oven temperature should read from 380 to 400 de¬ grees. Pans (if more than one loaf is baked at a time) should not stand too close together, so that heat may circulate freely around them. After about 10 minutes of baking, the temperature should be reduced to about 350 degrees and maintained until the loaves are done. Medium-sized loaves re¬ quire 45 to 50 minutes’ baking time, while large loaves need an hour or longer. If there is no oven thermometer handy, the temperature may be tested as follows: Spread Vz tea¬ spoon flour on an inverted baking tin in a layer inch thick and place in the oven. At 400 degrees, the flour will become light brown in about 5 minutes. If it darkens more quickly than that, allow the oven to cool before placing bread in to bake. THE DADE COUNTY TIMES, TRENTON.

An old favorite is oatmeal bread which is excellent served while warm, thinly ^>read with but- ter. Or, if you M j seek variety for ^ the lunch box, you will like it for meat and * ^ cheese sand¬ wiches. The fol¬ lowing recipe takes molasses for sweetening. Oatmeal Bread. (Makes 1 loaf) 1 cup rolled oats 2 cups milk Vi cup molasses 2 teaspoons salt Wi cups sifted flour 1 tablespoon melted shortening 1 yeast cake softened in Vi cup warm water Pour hot milk over oatmeal and let stand until lukewarm. Add yeast, molasses, salt and shortening. Stir in flour and let rise. When light, pour into greased bread pans and let rise again. Bake in a hot (425- degree) oven for 15 minutes, reduce heat to moderate (350 degrees) and continue baking for 35 minutes. Have you ever looked for a really good roll recipe? Here is one that is easily and quickly made. The trick is to have all the ingredients in the dough at room temperature (lukewarm). Company Rolls. (Makes about 2 dozen rolls) 1 cake yeast V, cup lukewarm water V\ cup milk, scalded and cooled to lukewarm 1 teaspoon salt Vi cup sugar Vi cup melted shortening, cooled to lukewarm 2 eggs, well beaten About 4 cups sifted flour Pour the Va cup lukewarm water onto yeast, add 1 tablespoon of the sugar, stir and let stand about 5 minutes. Dissolve salt and rest of the sugar in milk. When lukewarm, add yeast and blend with 2 cups flour. Beat very thoroughly. Next add eggs and shortening. Mix well and beat 3 minutes. Add remaining flour to make a smooth dough. Knead light¬ ly on board for about 5 minutes. Use only enough flour to keep from stick¬ ing. Dough should be kept as soft as possible. Place in a lightly greased bowl. Grease top and let rise until doubled. Fold dough down and let rise again until doubled. Shape into rolls. Let rise in greased pans until doubled. Bake 10-12 minutes in a hot (425-degree) oven. Shaping Rolls. The latest in dough tricks is this: after the first rising, shape finger strips of dough 8-12 inches long and wrap around a clean clothespin. Proceed to let rise again until light and bake as rolls. After baking re¬ move clothespin. Fill hot or cold with any desired sandwich filling. Or, proceed in the same manner but wrap finger strips of dough around a frankfurter, dainty or large, hearty size. These make fine snacks for either an evening or children’s party.

W., Washing¬ ton, D. C., is able to bring readers this weekly column on problems of the veteran and serviceman and his family. Questions may be addressed to the above Bureau and they will be answered in a subsequent column. No replies can be made direct by mail, but only in the column which will appear in this newspaper regularly. Few Continue Insurance Concerned with the large percent¬ age of veterans who are not converts ing their national service life insur¬ ance into permanent insurance, or with maintaining their policies in present form, Gen. Omar N. Brad¬ ley, Veterans’ administration di¬ rector, recently held a meeting with a joint committee of the American Life convention and the Life Insur¬ ance Association of America to lay plans for a nation-wide educational campaign on the subject. “Recent figures indicate that only one out of five veterans discharged is continuing his term policy or is converting it into one of the three types of permanent insurance of¬ fered,” General Bradley said. This figure, the committee was told, is approximately three times the ratio experienced after the last war. A committee of insurance men headed by Alexander Patterson, ex¬ ecutive vice president of the Mutual Life Insurance company, of New York, assured General Bradley that the committee “is prepared to go all- out to co-operate with you in your program to present to the veteran the many advantages of maintain¬ ing his national service life insur¬ ance policy.” Questions and Answers Q. My husband, a veteran of World War I is sick and disabled and about four months ago put in a disability claim and has not heard from it. Will they write and tell him whether he is eligible for pay or not? —Mrs. W. J. G., Lebanon, Va. A. Yes, he will no doubt hear from the Veterans administration. If he does not soon, write again to the nearest regional office of the Vet¬ erans administration. Q. My 18-year-old brother is now entering the army. How much time will he have to spend in the service or has there been a definite length of time decided upon. If a soldier re-enlists in the army, then decides within 20 days that he wants a dis¬ charge, can he get it?—Mrs. L. J., Pontotoc, Miss. A. The answer to your first ques¬ tion is that there has been no defi¬ nite time decided for 18-year-olds in the army. To the second question, the answer is No. Q. My husband has been in serv¬ ice since February, 1945. He is 31 years old and he has never had any training. Will there be any chance of him getting out soon? He was classi¬ fied in F-4 and put in A-l.—A read¬ er, Remlap, Ala. A. Indications are that your hus¬ band was inducted as a replacement and that he may be in limited serv¬ ice, but the chances of his early dis¬ charge are not good. Q. How can I get medical care, other than maternity care, for a sol¬ dier’s family? I have three children who must have medical care and I am under a doctor’s care myself, —Mrs. W. R., Wilmington, 111. A. Write to the nearest army med¬ ical center, or apply to your local Red Cross and they may advise you. Q. What does the navy get dis¬ charge points for? Do they get any points for battle stars or citations? —Mrs. A. A., Dennison, Ohio. A. Under present regulations navy discharge points are awarded only as follows: One-half point for each year of age; one-half point for each month of active service; one-quarter point for each month of sea duty; ten points for dependency. Forty-one points are necessary for discharge. Any navy man with three children is eligible for discharge. Q. My husband was told when en¬ tering the service that he would be discharged six months after the war. Will he get out by then or will he have to stay in the army until he has enough points?—L. L., Gloster, Miss. A. The chances are he will have to stay until he is eligible for dis¬ charge under the point system. The war is not officially ended until de¬ clared so by proclamation of the President or by congress. Q. If a man is sent to the Pacific for occupation, how long will he have to stay? — Mrs. K. C., Dennison, Ohio. A. His service would depend en¬ tirely upon the number of points he has earned and the nature of his service. Q. My husband, a veteran of World War I, did not receive his transportation home after being hon¬ orably discharged. Can he still col¬ lect his transportation? — Mrs. L. D., St. Maries, Idaho. A. It is 25 years late, but you might write to the office of the Ad¬ jutant General, War department. Q. How long is it permissible for a discharged soldier to wear a full uniform after arriving home? — M. E. T., Onekama, Mich. A. The regulations provide a sol¬ dier may wear his uniform up to 90 days after his discharge.
