PAGE SEVEN Southern Oregon Women to be Guests at Free Cooking School JFEDFORD MAIL TRIBUTE, MEDFOKD, OREGOX, TUESDAY, MARCH 29, 1932 ART OF COOKING JADE EASIER BY One of th oldest culinary art, one that Is known to nearly every nation, regardless of racial back ground, la that of baking. The woman who la a mistress of the baking art. cooks all-in-tha-oven meals with a little time and effort she putt her meal In her automatically regulated oven, sets time and temperature controls, and forgets about her dinner until it la time to set the table and serve the dishes. Miss Hester Heath, whose appear ance In Medford will draw hundreds of local housewives to The Mall Tribune "Kitchen Chautauqua" March 30, 31 and April 1, at the Holly theater, declares, "there is more magic In the oven than In any other kitchen article and the elements of time and temperature regulation are the two 'magicians.' " "The automatic oven fs one of the best time-savers and wife-savers In any kitchen." Miss Heath de clares. The culinary expert finds her cooking schools Immeasurably easier when she uses one of the modern type ranges with the automatic oven. In fact she says she could hardly put on a cooking school without this modern appliance, because she has Innumerable things to do on her platform at once, and simply must have the assistance of the automatic oven range. She declares that any housewife la at a great disadvantage without It. Miss Heath will give practical dem onstrations of her recipes In con nection with her lecture on baking, the most intricate and at the same time the most fascinating branch of cookery. Every housewife should make it point that regardless of whether or not she la able to attend each of the four lectures, that she be present to see and hear Miss Heath's baking demonstration. Biscuits, cakes, pastry, pies, cookies all ome in for a share of the talks and demonstrations. "In baking, the element of time must be double-checked," declares Miss Heath. "A matter of minutes may mean the difference between a culinary masterpiece and almost undisguised indigestion. "I have seen too many beautiful cakes or biscuits almost cremated when a housewife makes a miscalcu lation of Just a few moments in baking time. That Is Just another reason why I am so enthusiastic 'limit. th MiitilASt. nf thft nntnmaf.l. 'ally regulated oven." Phone 649 We'll haul away youi refuse. Otty Sanitary Service. U-Shaped "Cradle" Candles Set New Note Novelties range from Scotttrs on trtivs to picture hangers. By MARGERY TAYLOR Interior Decoration Editor, .Me Call's Magnziue. Written for Mail Tribune. Have you seen the new gardgets for banging pictures without wire or cord? The U-shaped candles and the Mexican glassware? The new cradle candle holder Is now to have a special kind of wax candle. The cradle candle Is U- shaped and comes In red, black, old Ivory, green and yellow. The latest candle holder consists of a base made of three rectangular plates piled on each other a chro mium plate between the two black ones. The cradle itself la supported on two horizontal cylinders In chro mium. With one of the new candles and a square, slivered tray of fruit, you have a table centerpiece which is different enough to mafcj pork-and -beans look like a banquet. After all these years someone has Invented a way of hanging pictures so they'll hang close 'to the wall and stay straight. It's on the hook-and-eye method. A metal band Is fastened to the wall, and into It Is inserted the flathook attached to the back of the picture. Two of them are used for a large picture. For the good hostess who will not stop entertaining this summer, but who prefers the informal for number of reasons, there are the new social supper trays. There Is the Scotty series of trays; there are. for the early American room, trays with coaches or hunting prints, and flower prints In trays in the spirit of the Eighteenth Century room. Mexico is the latest inspiration In decoration. There are. particularly, the coarse green Mexican glassware and the unsophisticated pottery and the pig and cow banks all real, not "tourist souvenirs." An Investigation covering thousands of homes all over the country brings forth the conclusion that the aver age American housewife prefers a kitchen of color to the conventional white and that a large majority of them lean toward cream or buff as a base color with green as a trim. Green In varying shades ranked as first choice for one-color kitchens, while red, at the other end of the spectrum took last place. The defend ers of the green, however, almost unanimously preferred green as a trim, rather than as an all-over color. Manuflcturcra of enameled kitchen utensils report that the results of this survey are borne out in the prepon derance of preference shown by housewives for utensils of cream or buff with green handles and beading. Whether the results of this survey were not anticipated by General Elec tric stylists Is not known. If not, then It is a peculiar coincidence that the new Advanced 1933 model GE Hot point electric range, now being fea tured by Palmer's Electric Store and other local dealers is to be had in cream colored vitreous enamel with cascade oreen trimming as well as in pure white enamel with silver wing iniv trim. Many new and exclusive ieaiuros distinguish this new oe creauun which will be displayed at the Mail Tribune Electric Cooking achool nt the Holly theatre this week. MPORTANT PHASE A survey made recently throughout the nation shows that the lighting In the average kitchen Is entirely in adequate. It Is reported that more than three-fourths of all kitchens are poorly lighted, causing eye strain and headaches and making wark hard and disagreeable. In line with a national effort now under way to lighten housework and Improve living conditions generally, local electric dealers are featuring the new "kitchen daylight" type of lighting fixtures. These new units are not only highly efficient but very economical to Install and operate ac cording to many modern housewives who are already enjoying the conven ience and satisfaction of a properly lighted kitchen. T The first electric cooking was done at the Crystal Palace In London In 1809 as a remarkable experiment. To day millions of meals are prepared electrically every day in. this coun try alone, not to speak of the elec trical cookery that Is becoming com mon In almost every other civilized nation in the world. Right here in Medford, and in fact the entire Cop co territory, electric cooking is being used to a marked degree. Figures ob tained from the local power com pany show that more than one out of every three electric customers In Menford uses electricity for cooking. This la a truly remarkable showing and speaks well for the progressive nest of local housewives In adopting the latest modern cooking methods aa well as for the reasonable electric rates which make this showing pos blblc.
