La Grande Girl Is- -. ; Bride of Airman at California Ceremony Mr. and Mrs. W. M. Wese of La Grande today announced Ihe marriage of their daughter, Jac queline, to Lt. Arthur T. Kelley of Throckmorton, Texas. The ceremony took pfcice in the Baptist church In Merced, Calif-, June 2nd, with the bride's mother and Flight Officer Rob ert Kaufman of Connecticut as the attendans of the bridal cou ple. The double ring ceremony was used. The bride is a cadet nurse and the bridegroom is temporarily stationed at the army air base at Merced, where he is receiving pilot training. They spent a brief honeymoon in' Merced. The marriage was the culmina tion of a romance which began when Kelley was a member of the army aviation cadet corps here. The'brfde is a graduate of La Grande, high school, V- New Bulletin Tells How To Use Syrup, Honeytn Canning Method it using corn syrup to stretch cafnirig' sugoV supplies, and different proportions neces sary for the best results are the subject of a new extension serv ice bulletin available at the office of the county agent. The circular contains tables for guidance of homemakers in the use of both;drn syrup and honey as sugar supplements, and it dis cusses varices' ways of obtaining maximum ijuaritities of canned fruits with smaller amounts of sugar. It says dark corn syrup, as well as the more popular light kind, may be used successfully in can ning for all of the common fruits except pears. In making the thin type of syrup used in canning, neither the light nor dark corn syrup is recommended with cher ries, although either can be used in making a medium or heavy syrup. In general, the recommended proportions of corn syrup to sugar run a little less than one part to three, although for some fruits and some grades of canning syrup the proportion is either greater or less than:, that. For example, the recommended proportion in making a 1 medium syrup for cherries is to use 113 cups coi n syrup to 3V4 cups sugifr with 5 23 cups water. ' The government recommenda tion for using sugar alone in can ning Is one pound of sugar for each four(lp,uaite of finished pro duct, Which 'means' bne-'half 'cub of sugar per quart of fruit or a 25 per cent syrup, the circular shows. The lowest amount of sugar used with any satisfaction in , canning! or freezing most fruits is about a sixth cup per quart. Fruit canned without su gar will keep but quality and flavor are poor.

C, June 2 (NEA) Here's a tip for the housewife: If hubby returns from a fishing trip with a weird conglomeration of amphibians on a string, of course don't slam the door in his face. He may be the bearer of red point savers. it may be delicious to eat, bet ter than anything you can get at the market. That floppy looking object resembling a closed wet umbrella may be a sting-ray, the wings of which are utilized in a tasty New Orleans dish called raie au bourre noire. Housewives have been throw ing away tons of game fish every year rather than dress and pre pare it. Much is precisely the fish they pay good money for at fish markets, perhaps under an other name. AU Have Food Value There is hardly a fish which is not considered delicious by some one somewhere, people who thrive on their diet. The bony Equipped with goggles and sharp spears, sportsmen and sportswomen go under water in North Carolina for dinner. cam is used to advantage. Take, for instance, the pigfish, caught frequently by sportsmen in warmer waters and all too of ten tossed back or cut up for bait. Actually in North Carolina the pigfish is called "sailor's choice,", a tribute to its worth as a panfish.

The ugly toadfish (oysterfish) has a disposition so mean that it jumps out of the water to snap at its captor with powerful jaws. This specimen makes a tasty tid bit, but few persons will. Know ingly eat it. . Scaling, Cleaning Simple Such prejudices have been bro ken down somewhat and even more rapidly are disappearing under the exigencies of food shortages. One reason why the sport fish erman frequently has to hawk his catch among the neighbors is the dread housewives have at the job of scaling and cleaning. Yet it is a simple job. A dull knife scrapes off the scales. The fish is split dVY1 underside from head to tail, en trails drawn out, head and tall cut off, then washed and wiped with a cloth inside and out. Some fish should be skinned and boned. Both operations are equal ly simple. ... Everyone knows the Immense food value of shark's liver. But the shark itself, long considered edible only by South Sea natives, has also proved its worth at the table. When you buy. grayfish at your meat market you buy shark.
