KILL OVKN TO CAPACITY TO SAVB IIAKINO TIME Time and money can bo saved by filling the oven to capacity at bak ing time. A roast, for example, may be baking simultaneously with a loaf cake, nut bread, fruit pudding or escalloped mixtures. Food's baked during the cooking of the evening meal often may be serv ed the following day. During spring months it is wise to have only two or three baking days a week.

Oil or oily substances should not be used on waxed floors, because they soften the wax and eventually injure the floors. A soft brush or mop will perform the ordinary cleaning, while a rag dipped In turpentine will gtre them extra lustre. Turpentine should not be used near a flame. oooooooooooooooooooooooo Wiss Mabel Morton . .

SHIELDS WILL RETIRE JUNE FIRST (Continued From Page One) of this church was authorized to call to their pulpit supplies as they may desire. Mr. Williams is now the pastor of the churches at Wallowa and Los tine. The Presbytery recessed for ten minutes in the afternoon, to be the honored guests of the members of the Women's Missionary society, at refreshments. Itcv. Samuel Harris, of Burns, and Mr. Walz were elected bishop com missioners to the General Assembly to bo held in Cleveland, Ohio, May 24 to Juno 1. Fred Hall and John McDonald were elected elder com missioners. Mr. Walz presented his report as chairman of the committee of na tional missions, and called attention to the fact that while many Institu tions, banks, building and loan asso ciations, business corporations, have been closed as bankrupt during these days of depression, but less than one per cent of all the churches in the U. S. A. have been declared bankrupt, and there are nearly 300,000 churches. In Oregon, not one Presbyterian church has been closed on account of the depression. Recommendations by this Presby tery to the General Assembly were favorable to the organic union of the Presbyterian church in the U. S. A. and the United Presbyterian church. D. A. Thompson, representative of the board of national missions, and Dr. W. L. Van Nuys, representing the board on Christian education, spoke upon their work and program. At the close of the session, mem bers of the Presbytery motored to Baker, where a banquet of welcome was served in honor of Rev. ond Mrs. W. W. Sloan, now located at Ba ker, Mr. Sloan having been called to the church as pastor. TO LIGHTEN' YOI Il LAItOHS KKKP LKiHT !U LBS CLEAN Often dimness in the reading light, or any other light whore brightness is an asset, is the result of plain, or dinary dirt. A weak solution of hot water, good quality soap (or cleaning powder) and ammonia should be prepared. Then take a soft cloth and dampen with this solution and wlpc ofr the elec tric light bulbs. After that admire your own light work! Or, if you have a parchment shade, there Is nothing that will clean It better than by rubbing It with a gum eraser. Making Cream Soup If you have some stock or left-over ' vegetables but not enough for regu lar soup, you still may have a sub stantial cream soup. Molt the but ter, then blend in the flour and sca sonliiRs. Add the vegetable stock very gradually, stir ond cook until tho mixture Is thick. Then add milk, hot or cold. . vA p t ' gr i FIRST ANNUAL CONCERT A CAPPELLA CHOIR Andrew Loney Jr., Director Monday Evening, April 16th Presbyterian Church Eight O'clock Tickets may be procured from members, or on Satur day and Monday at either Glass Drug- Store or Guthrie Jewelers.

Admission - 35c No Smooth Path For True Love In Hollywood HOLLYWOOD Moe Clarke, whose romance with Sidney Blackmor gets more than average attention In the chatter spaces, sees no smooth path for true love in Hollywood, but ad mits that the town's gossiping pro clivities are, In a sense, a blessing In disguise. t For If affection goes unscathed through the difficulties that beset every movleland romance (this la ; Mao looking for the stiver lining) i the parties concerned, can be pretty sure that they have a genuine ar- ttcle and that a marriage will last, i 'We Are In Love j Miss Clarke refralnd as much as ' possible from discussing her own ro mance, but will admit that "we are in love we have many important things to do and decide before we can consider tho most Important of all marriage and that's Just how It stands." i This Is offered, perhaps, as a basts for her generalizations on Holly wood romance. 1 "In Hollywood," she says, "gos sips Insist upon cataloging you. At all times, to fit their card Index, sys tem, one must be In one of four states engaged, married, divorced or mysteriously lonely. "Then, after you're cataloged, you must conduct yourself accordingly or It makes another bit of gossip. They negleot a fifth category, which would allow ua to be Just like other people plowing along and wonder ing what's going to happen next." It's A Problem The difficulties of romance when the two principals work at different times, as actors do, one being free for play when the other needs rest, she considers obvious. But gossip nevertheless cimcumscrlbes the ac tivities of an engaged actor or ac tress who Is on vacation. Taking trips alone, going out with friends, any number of reasonable things a man or woman might do, all start reports of a rift. "It makes one feel more 'tied down' than If one wore married," laughs Mae. a little ruefully. Withal, Mae's sense of humor shines through. "At that." she says with, a mock sigh. "I don't suppose Hollywood is as bod as a really small town. And the classio lovers of fiction and his tory all had greater problems. Holly wood at least doesn't have family fcuda to complicate things no Mon tagues and Capuletsl" Pi-' STItINd AHOCNI) CORK TO OI'EN I'EltriME ItOTTLI Have you even received a nice bot tle of fragrant perfume, put It aside to open for some special occasion and then found difficulty removing the top? Of course ther0 Is the old trick of pouring hot water over the corked part of the bottle. But sometimes this does not work. If such Is the case ask someone to hold the bottle for you. wind string around tho glass cork and keep on twisting or moving the string so that it creates friction.' This works quickly.

P. Leader By Herbert I'lummer WASHINGTON W) Knowledgo of two facts In the life or Charles Linza McNnry helps one understand t-he typo of man who guides the Re publican party's destinies In the United States 'senate. One Is that his seat in the senate chamber Is between "Puddler Jim" Davis of Pennsylvania, G. O. P. old guardsniHn, and Hiram Johnson of California, one of tho most vocifer ous of Republican Insurgents. This demonstrates the working of his political credo "All Republicans look alike to me." The other is the specially construc ted sand trap on tho side of a hill at his homo in Oregon where he prac tices with his untrustworthy niblick, "Goneroly I am In the bunkers while playing golf with Pat Harrison NO CHANGE OF MODELS! NO ADVANCE IN PRICE! ON 1934 EC0N0MI Phone Main 500 Si 1 (of Mississippi) and Jim Couzens (of Michigan) In Washington," he ex plains. "Put" nnil "Charlie" The blond, dapper Republican lead er and the man sometimes described as the Mississippi "gadfly" are close personal friends. When one has to be absent when an Important vote Is taken. Invariably they are paired. "You see Pat," McNary tells the clerk when he must be absent. "He'll take care of me." "You seo Charlie," says. Pat. "He'll look after me1." MeNary's popularity bridges the aisle dividing one party from the other. In the senate chamber. Almost everyone agrees that his knack of getting along with his opponents as minority leader makes tho senate a happier ond smoother- working unit It has been brought to our attention1 that certain competitors are circulating'the report that vc arc going to have a change of pres ent Ford models. These statements, a most flagrant form of unfair and unethical Competition, ,iirc absolutely without foundation, or any truth whatsoever. ' ........ There is a definite trend toward increased Ford sales. The Ford Motor Company is .building 100,000 cars a month and cannot fill their orders. Would it be reasonable that they would attempt to change models at this time, with threatened strikes in die and tool plants? Thc company wo represent .has1, asked us' to spikcithis unfair act by these competitors who arc apparently grasping at any straw to justify their raisci in, price in the mind&vof their dealers. Come to us for reliable information on what Ford is going to do. Ford will continue to manufacture the present model throughout 1934. Ford will continue to use, as in the past, the inde pendent springing o all tour wheels. Ford will continue the V-Type engine. FORD WILL CONTINUE TO EPENDABLE CAL than It otherwise would be. Tall, suave and gracious, he has a boyish countenance despite the fact he will be 60 years old In June, He has been pronounced one of the best-groomed. If not best - dressed men in the senate Almost always smiling, he has an attractive air of easy formality. One la likely to encounter him In a son ato corridor whistling some popular song as his long legs convey him easily almost Jauntily to his des tination. Those long legs represent one of his political assets. For McNary Is not given to long speeches . iHLs rostrums are the cloakrooms and the seemingly endless corridors of the capttol and senate office building. Born on a farm, he loses no time in getting back to his vast acres when the senAto adjourns. It hardly could bo called a farm now, how ever, The fields near Salem. Ore., have been supplanted largly by or chards. Ho h as a t ro u t pon d nea r h is GIVE THE BUYING Transportation house where he feeds ground liver to his pets. A lover of wild life, he has made his place a sanctuary for birds. On the marble bookshelf In his office at the capltol, among tomes on low, geology and other subjects, may be seen several volumes of poetry. One volume he likes par ticularly Is a beautifully bound first edition of the poems of Samuel Simpson, western pioneer poet who wrote of the Oregon, countryside. CHEESE AS BASE" FOH POACHED ECQ Always cook cheese very slowly. And, when stirring It, stir In the some ' direction and without ceasing. This insures smoothness. .Melted cheeae on toast as a foun dation for a poached egg adds a little zest to tills dish. Hot melted cheese on toast with afternoon tea makes a nice change from the usual sandwiches or more "fussy" kinds of cakes. r PUBLIC And 1 4th and Adams
