PAGE SIX MEDFOKD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, "WEDNESDAY, MAT 31, 1933. Southern Oregon Women to Be Guests at Free Cooking School QUADRUPLETS GET DIPLOMAS THEY'RE BETTER From Monarch nsme Service Pept When the French discovered that certain plants had an enlivening feet upon those who ate them, they very appropriately called tnem ybbo tables, after the Latin word "vege tabllis" which means enllveillr.;. The French did not know that the en. llveners were "vitamins" In which vegetables abound, especially when prepared and cooked In accordance with modern dletic principles, with modern cookery methods, vegetables have been brought Into the llme-llght as never oeiore ana mo housekeeper's slogan at all times should be: "Make the most of the seasonal vegetables, and use them freelv." The every day use of vege tables calls for simple cookery and methods of serving. When vegetables are cooked too long the texture Is spoiled, the best flavor Is not obtained, some or me vitamins are destroyed, and often their color becomes unattractive. Cooking them In a large quantity of water robs them of valuable food elements. Vegetables cooked In steam retain soluble food materials and are usually very attractive. An easy way to steam vegetables Is to put them In a tightly covered utensil with a very small amount of water ana apply enough heat to keep the water at a boning temperature. 'inia mecnoa may be used economically on an eiec trlo range: it requires no attention excent turning off the switch a few minutes after the cooking has begun. The following suggestions are or fered regarding cooking vegetables on an electric range: 1. Practically any vegetable may be cooked by putting In a closely cov. ' ered utensil, applying Intense heat for a short period and completing the cooking on stored heat. 2. The length of time switch should be on high is approximately one-fourth of total cooking period a. g., a large amount of product re quires a longer period of applied heat in order to heat the substance through then cooking Is accom plished on stored heat. a. It la unnecessary for vegetables to be even partially Immersed In water vegetables In steam cook as quickly and as well. 4. Green vegetables, especially leafy ones, lose their color slightly It cooked In a tightly covered utensil unless steam la allowed to escape occasion ally. 6. Greens should not be packed too tightly as heat penetrates them slowly. 0. Very large potatoes do not cook In ordinary stored heat period. It Is better to cut them In pieces as me dium sized ones. Advsntages of cooking vegetables on stored heat In little water are ob vious: 1. "Waterless" cooking preserves soluble minerals, protein and sugar which are often thrown away In water. 3. Vegetables are kept In better shape and dq not become "mushy." 8. Natural flavor Is emphasised. and vegetables do not require as much seasoning. This la especially desirable In cokolng young, delicately flavored, vegetables. 4. Potatoes are not soggy, but flaky and dry, resembling bsked pota toes. 8. This method Is economical of current because of small amount of water and use of stored heat, Perhapa the only set of quadruplets In the country to reach matur.

(Associated Press Photo) ' STARS GET LOST EASILY WHEN OFI DUTY AT STUDIOS By ROBIN COONS ROOLLYWOOD Thera'a been a lot written aout tbe dally problems of the casting director, but the studio gentleman in the role of Sherlock Holmes Is seldom mentioned. This Is a role he takes not Infre quently, too. wtoen suddenly from the front office comes word that a cer tain picture Is to be started Imme diately instead of two weeks hence. That order means more than the hastening of set construction and double-time stitching In the wardrobe department. It means, quite often, that stars who might be vacationing somewhere "between pictures" have to be hastily assembled. Ordinarily it Isn't a task requiring such sleuthing. Ann Harding may like to retire to quiet desert spots between camera sieges, but, unfailingly, she leaves word with the casting office as to where she may be reached. Bo, they say. li Constance Bennett Just telephone her secretary and Con nie will be around or will be fetched. That's the rule, however, with most of the stars and other players. For Instance, Bruce Cabot, going motor ing In Mexico, leaves a complete Itin erary, stating Just where he can be found any given day. Generally speaking the stars doa t lose themselves completely when they 'run away from It all." But sometimes complications occur, and the casting office dons Its de tective cap, yells "Quick, Watson, the 'phone book I" and gets busy. i The classic example arose recently l when Eric Linden, who really travels, It sems, was needed In a hurry for a new film suddenl) pushed forward In schedule. The studio's ex-offlclo "missing persons bureau" put In calls to all the cities and towns between San Francisco and San Diego, and three days later located him at L- guna Beach, about 60 miles from Hollywood. Another time Eric was "lost" and they found him fishing away happily up In Oregon. Richard Dlx believes In privacy to the extent that no one at the studio has his home telephone number, but he can be reached through his secre tary. Lionel Barrymore Is touchy, too, about being called at home that Is, he's particular about who does the calling. His rule Is to appoint one certain worker on each picture he's In to do all summoning when he Is required unexpectedly. This worker has In structions as to what hours Mr Barrymore considers "reasonable" for such calls. CO-EDS' SCANTIES LOST L SALEM, Ore., May 91. (UP) Big co-eds, small ones, buxom , lasses, sylph-like co-eds, and others at Wil lamette university today delved fran tically through lingerie counters at local department stores. Why? "The world's meanest rob bers," simpered one bright-eyed fern lnlne student, "stole the laundry out of the drying room of the Lausanne1 dormitory P And that, they said, meant a lot, From Monarch Rome service Dept. In the spring when a young man's fancy Is turning to thoughts of golf and other Interesting sports, his mother's thoughts are concentrated on what to have for the next meal. Strange that meals are more difficult to plan and families harder to please this time of the year. In former times, spring fever was blamed for this restlessness and mother concocted and administered strange mixtures some extremely unpalatable like sul phur and molasses; others rather pleasant, for example, sassafrac tea. Now-a-days nutritionists tell us that lack of a certain vitamin the one called "B" may at times be re sponsible for & poor appetite. Since this vitamin Is found principally in leafy vegetables and fruits, perhaps our diets have not contained enough of these foods to provide an adequate amount of vitamin B. It Is a fairly easy thing to supply larger quantities of vegetables and fruits for each year there la larger va riety of canned foods available. The woman who does not have the op portunity to purchase fresh foods from the varied assortments displayed dally at the market should 'keep a generous supply of the canned foods on hand for alt occasions. Research has called to our atten tion the fact that a surprisingly small amount of the vitamin Is destroyed during the canning process. In fact, m many cases, canned foods contain more of the vitamins A and B than the fresh vegetables which have been cooked In an open kettle in our kitchens. Vitamin C which has been shown by recent experiments to check dental decay and stimulate tooth develop ment Is easily destroyed by heat. So this vitamin should be supplied by serving the fresh foods which con tain generous amounts of it such as oranges, lemons, grapefruit and to matoes. Many other foods contain it, but in much smaller amounts than these. A specialist in foods at one of the great middle western colleges recommends that tomatoes be served at least twice a week four times when oranges and grapefruit are not used. Vitamin A which helps to build up resistance to colds and infections of the upper respiratory regions is found in many foods which may be eaeslly remembered, for this vtaran appears to be assocated with the yellow foods as well as the green vegetables. Our best sources of It are egg yolks, car rots, apricots, yellow turnips and cream. These are not named in the order of their Importance as providers of vitamin A. The green leaves of lettuce and cabbage are richer In this vitamin than the bleached Inside ones and watercress, which Is so plentiful and heaps of fun to gather this time of the year, contains more vitamin A than any other plant except spin ach. The other vitamin called D or the sunshine vitamin Is responsible for stimulating the building of strong bones, providing the other necessary essentials are supplied. It is found In egg yolks, milk, green leafy vege tables and of course, cod liver oil. One well known child specialist recom mends that every child raised in this northern climate should receive cod liver oil up to 4 years of age. Vitamin A Is also found In generous amounts In cod liver oil. .
