Zoom Speeds Up
School Mornings
The small frey and Big Sister
and Dad all eating breakfast at
different times . . . what a prob
lem!
No, not a problem at all, say
homemakers, who find that Zoom
is absolutely perfect for "stag
gered" breakfast times.
Dad has to get oft first, so
mother puts the water on to boil
for Zoom, starts the coffee and
sets the table with practically
one motion. Then the Zoom is
stirred Into the boiling salted
water and she turns off the heat.
Presto a hot breakfast ready
along with the morning head
lines when Dad yawns in from
shaving!
Big Sister ooms
Swish! That's the way Big
Sister comes In for her break
fast late as usual, and It's a
good thing that there's a portion
of Dad's Zoom kept hot for her.
She has to spoon up HER nour
ishment on the run, literally! (If
she Just wouldn't insist on all
that fancy curl-combing, she'd
have more time, of course.)
The school-agers are last, and
In almost as big a hurry. And that
school bus Is SO Important. Susy
cooks her own Zoom and cats It
from the dish she cooks it In.
But speedy Zoom is for speedy
folks of all ages, so Mother Just
stirs up another batch of Zoom
and everybody is happy and on
their way in no time at all.

Menu Memos

For your fall menus, I suggest
THE WORLD'S FASTEST
FRESH APPLE PIE!
HERE'S HOW YOU DO IT:
2 cups Fisher's Biskit Mix
2 pounds (8 medium-sized)
Apples (dual purpose: good
for cooking and eating with
the skins on)
6 tablespoons Milk
f tablespoons Fat (clear
bacon drippings are grand)
W to H cup granulated sugar
18 teaspoon Salt
1 teaspoon Cinnamon
1 tablespoon Butter
QUICK WORK THIS:
Set the oven for 450'F. If you
use a metal pie pan ... or 425
if you use Pyrex. Next wash
your apples. Core. Cut off ends
and slice to thickness of silver
dollar (about 18 Inch). Pack
the apple slices (pes, the pretty
pink or yellow skin Is still on
em) In a pie plate, cover with
a second pie plate and shove 'em
into that oven. Sugar? No, not
yet please.
Next, measure the milk Into a
two-quart saucepan and put it
on to heat. Drop the fat right in
to the hot milk and when the
milk is steaming, take the kettle
off the fire and stir contents
until fat is melted. Now, drop
the Fisher's Biskit Mix In. Stir
it Just enough to get the dough
smooth. Have ready a pastry
cloth and stocking-covered roll
ing pin if you own 'em. If not,
cover molding board and rolling
pin with paper towels fastened
with rubber bands. Rub well
with Fisher's Biskit Mix. Dump
out the dough and cut in half
and pat each half into a small
ish round. Roll out dough and
line 9-inch pie plate.
Yes you can handle this
dough while warm. Don't roll
too thin.
Next, mix the sugar with the
salt and cinnamon. Then take
out the partly cooked apples,
spread half in the lined pie plate.
Add half the sugar mixture. Dot
on half the butter, add remain
ing apples, sprinkle on remain
ing sugar mixture and dot with
remaining butter.
Cover with top crust from
other half of dough. Wet edge
with cold water. Cut the "trim.
mings" in strips for an extra
edge. "Crimp" with fingertips

Mothers Grin as
Coaches Groan
By GRANT REISLAND
With the first of the confer
ence football games under way.
the crying season for coaches
soon will be over . . . and mothers
know that most of the moans
have been mere sound effects.
That is. the really heavy-duty
conference weeping reaches its
peak with the initial kick-offs,
although an occasional piteous
whimper will continue to be
heard when the proper circum
stances arise.
After the actual battles start
the college generals suffer the
comparative silence,
outrageous slings of fortune In
No Material
It is hard to evaluate the out-
and-out claim of a coach who
says he has positively no materi
al to work with against the
brave, dry-eyed, game-though
licked role of the coach who
sighs:
"We'll be all right. I hope. At
least we'll do our best. Nobody
will be able to say we didn't
try."
If we take the coaches' words
for it, almost all these early
games up and down the coast
will be lost by both teams.
Energy Essential
There's only one thing you
can be sure of in this matter of
phsical effort, whether It's foot
ball or a race with the weather
to get your fall bulbs planted
a lot of energy is going to be ex
pended In the next couple of
months.
Active play and active work
call for a backing of nutritious
food the kind of food Fisher's
products provide. Take wheat
germ, for example. It contains
more protein pound for pound
than do most lean meats. You
can put Wheat Germ, one of
nature's finest foods, into any
meal. Added to muffins, pan
cakes and cookies, it makes a
touchdown-scoring team.
BISKIT MIX WINS
"I am a senior in Home Eco
nomics," writes a college student
to Fisher Flouring Mills, "and
thought you might be interested
in results from comparison tests
recently made in the foods lab
oratory in our Food Purchasing
course. Judging of products was
done on the basis of flavor, tex
ture and appearance by the class
with further consideration given
to cost, and preparation time.
All of the comparisons were
made between one or more com
mercial products and a similar
home-made one.
"We compared seventeen vari
eties of homemade biscuits and
three commercial mixes. Fisher's
Biskit Mix received the highest
quality score of all 20 products
on flavoring, texture and appearance."
