Everyone loves him! She was on her way home from a first aid course when she saw a man lying prone in the middle ot the sidewalk. His face was cra dled in one arm; the other arm was twisted under him in & pecu liar position. All alert she was, and without a moment’s hesitation got down on her knees and went to work. Here v/as her opportunity to prove herself. For a few minutes there was no response, then the victim spoke up. "Lady,” he said, "I don’t know what you’re doing, but I wish you’d quit tickling me. I’m trying to hold a lantern for this fellow down in the manhole, and he’s got a fiery temper.” Preserve the “ pop” in popcorn by keeping the corn moist in a lightly closed container.

Rice Bulls in Mushroom Suuce (See Recipes Below) Fluvorful Mcuts ► You'll be using more of the lower grades of beef as time goes by. Most of the AA and A, top grades of beef, are going to armed forces and utili ty or lower grade beef will be more available for civilian consumption. That calls for pulling out the old- fashioned. flavorful recipes that will really make this beef taste good. We used to do, and can still do It as long as we pull the bunny of inge nuity out of the proverbial hat, or cookbook, as the case may be. Inexpensive cuts of meat can be made tender by several methods. Round steak can be pounded with a small hammer or mallet to break down the tissues, then braised with liquids and sea sonings to savory goodness. Stew ing is another good method for cooking this type of meat. Adding tomato Juice, spices, mushroom soup and other liquids gives peak flavor. Here are recipes which may be made with utility beef, but which will have just as much flavor as the more expensive cuts: Swiss Steak. (Serves 6) Round or Arm steak, cut 2 inches thick Flour Salt and pepper 1 onion, thinly sliced 2 tablespoons lard 2 cups tomatoes 1 carrot, diced 54 cup corn 1 small green pepper, sliced 54 cup water M ix flour, salt and pepper; pound Into steak. Brown steak in lard. Add vegetables and water. Cover pan and cook in slow oven (300 de grees) for 254 hours. Add more wa ter if needed. Serve with vegeta bles poured over steak. Short Ribs With Vegetables. (Serves 6) 5 pounds short ribs of beef 3 teaspoons salt 54 teaspoon pepper 2 tablespoons lard I medium-sized potatoes 8 small onions 4 parsnips 4 carrots Wipe meat with damp cloth, sprin kle with salt and pepper and brown in hot fat. Add water, cover and allow to simmer an hour. Prepare vegetables. Add whole potatoes, onions, parsnips and carrots cut in half. Season vegetables, cover and continue cooking until vegetables are tender. Serve meat on platter garnished with vegetables. L yn n Says * Point Pointers: Use low tem peratures in cooking meat, re gardless of the method. High tem peratures shrink meat unneces sarily. Save all the meat you buy. If a roast is boned at the butchers, bring the bones home and use them for soup. Different seasonings add inter est to meats. Try onion gravy with beef. Mushroom soup, di luted and heated, goes well with lamb. Horseradish adds pep to pot roast or short ribs gravy. Pork gravy is good with a dash of sage, lamb gravy with a bit of curry. Leftover vegetables such as peas, carrots, celery, lima beans and green beans added to gravy make it colorful, different and more nourishing.

Spiced Beef. 3 pounds chuck steak 54 teaspoon cloves 6 medium-sized onions 54 teaspoon peppercorns 2 tablespoons salt 1 teaspoon allspice 6 bay leaves 12 gingersnaps Wipe meat with damp cloth.

Return meat to gravy and let stand for about 15 minutes before serving. The favorite combination of ham and sweet potatoes takes a new turn in this following recipe: Ham and Sweet Potato Roll.
