The BEST BUY in GEORGIA
Everybody knows that ELECTRICITY IS CHEAP in Georgia.
But nothing demonstrates this more strikingly than a comparison of
electricity’s bargain prices with the prices of other necessities of life.
Look at the chart above. Trace the heavy upper line and you see
what has happened to the general Cost of Living (according to the
U. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics) since the good old pre-war days
when everything was cheap.
Then, follow the 'lower line and you see how the price of elec
tricity to homes served by the Georgia Power Company has gone
down, down, DOWN!
Cost of Living shot skyward during the war and it’s still UP,
though it came down some during the depression.
Georgia electricity prices rose a little during the worst of the post
war inflation, came down again soon, and since then have dropped
lower and lower.
TODAY, the Cost of Living average is 43 per cent HIGHER
than it was in 1913.
But, the price of your home electricity is over 50 per cent
LOWER than in 1913.
And Cost of Living has been mounting the past few years, while
the price of electricity has kept on going down. We hope the rising
prices of other things will not be able to pull electric rates up again,
now or ever. We believe in low rates, to permit and encourage the
abundant use of electricity in Georgia homes. And we are proud of
the fact that homes served by the Georgia Power Company enjoy
electric rates that are among the very lowest in the nation!
A Grand Slam At Any Bridge Table
By Jane Rogers —

Nibble and stay thin is the motto of the bridge playing hostess who
fortifies her guests with grapefruit peel candied in pineapple juice in
stead of chocolates and bonbons.
A* CANDY to delight the woman
who is watching her waistline
Is prepared by cooking thin strips
of grapefruit peel in a sirup made
of Hawaiian pineapple juice and j
sugar The result is a delicious|
candy with a gumdrop consistency j
and the true pineapple flavor To I
add color to the peel the sirup may i
be tinted with vegetable coloring,
and for variety the peel may be cut
in fancy shapes before cooking.
The tested recipe follows:
Candied Grapefruit Peel
Wash grapefruit skins, remove all
membrane, leaving the thick white
and yellow rind, and cut into strips
about three inches long and three
eighths of an inch wide. Place rind in
* kettle and cover with cold water.
Bring water to a boil and boil for
fifteen minutes. Drain and repeat
process twice. Rinse peel with cold
water and drain thoroughly. Make
a sirup, using one cup of Hawaiian
pineapple juice to one cup of sugar.
Bring sirup to a boil and boil for
ten minutes before adding peel.
Sirup should just cover the peel.
Bring sirup to a good boil and then
turn heat low so sirup will simmer
gently Cook until skins become
glazed and have absorbed all the
sirup. Day candied peel on a tray
covered with waxed paper to dry
(overnight). Then roll each strip
in granulated sugar One cup of
I sugar and one cup of juice will^
make enough sirup to cover the
peel from two grapefruit of medium
size (about 2 cups of fruit peel).
WHEELER COUNTY EAGLE, ALAMO, GEORGIA
Food, clothing, rent and the
other items you use every day
make up the Cost of Living av
erage, now 43 per cent HIGHER
than in 1913, as shown in the
upper line above. The lower line
traces the downward path of
electricity prices paid by homes
served by this Company — and
our rates are just as low in the
villages and on the farms as in
the largest cities,

Lauritz Melchior, brilliant Wagnerian tenor of the Metropolitan Associa
tion, pausing for a final sip of Hawaiian pineapple juice at his dressing
table before going on to the opera stage, in the title role of "Tannhauser”
LAURITZ MELCHIOR, the Metro
politan Opera’s groat Wagnerian
tenor, finds that a tall glass at
Hawaiian pineapple juice before a
‘‘Tannhauser” performance will do
' a great deal to polish off those full,
■ lyric high notes for which he is
I famous.
In Mr. Melchior’s dressing room,
i at the Metropolitan there is; always
| a large bottle of fruit juice from
which the Danish “konigliche Kam
mersinger” (singer to tie royal
court) pours himself a drink before
going on the stage as “Tannhausen”,
"Tristan”, or “Siegfried”—the great
Wagner hero roles which he has sung
more often than any living ;ir.
Mr. Melchior has found Hawaiian
pineapple juice effective not only as >
a thirst quencher that will not harm
the voice, but actually as a means
of soothing the throat and clearing
the vocal passage.
The pineapple juice practice is
one of the few precautions Lauritz
Melchior takes for his voice. He is,
in fact, a notorious disbeliever in
the fads and fancies to which many
of his operatic colleagues subscribe.
A hearty meal, a good cigar, and a
midnight hunting expedition when
he is in California, Maine, or at
home in Chossewitz, are never
passed up by this singer, and, as
the critics will attest, his voice has
never been any the worse for it.
‘Enjoy life fully and you will want
to sing and therefore be able to do
it well’'. Mr. Melchior declared.

Remove Butterscotch Cookies from Baking Sheet Shortly After
Removing from Oven. Let Them Cool On a Rack.
rpHIN nut cookies are in great ।
' demand, particularly in homes
brightened by young children.
Running in and out of the house
all day, burning up energy with
every step, young: tors constantly
ask for* something to eat. Actu
ally they need frequent “refuel
ing". A new kind of cookie,
crunchy and brown, is the treat
of treats for them.
Butterscotch cookies are rich in
energy elements as well as being
delightfully flavored. There are
a dozen and one ways to make
them. But the liberal use of
ground Brazil nuts in the recipe
pictured as detailed below repre
sents a pleasant departure from
routine preparation. The nuts in
this instance are an important
part of the batter, not just some
thing that is casually added. One
caution to observe m baking is'
to remove them from the baking
.sheets before they have cooled,
and hardened.
