Time and money can bo saved by
filling the oven to capacity at bak

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.

Hard-wood floors must have proper
care if they are to look their best.
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.

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

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

very gradually, stir ond cook until
tho mixture Is thick. Then add milk,

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"

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. '

"All Republicans Look Alike" To
McNary, Senate G. 0. 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,

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.
