SIX MEDFOHD (OREGON) MAIL THIBUWE Thuriday, January 19. 1930 Wimpy t!Vl PKMUtO "Ml I'O JlrFm PS Sio omm iKv In the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS The other day when I was starting this screed it boiled down to a choice between the weather and China. As I recall it, I picked China. By today, the situation has deteriorated. The choice Is between the weather and politics. BEFORE launching Into pol itics,, I'd like to pass on a report Irom Herb Hemmingsen, Herald and News composing room superintendent at Klamath Falls, where these words are written. Herb lives on the uphill side of a side hill avenue. He says he looked out of the window this morning, and there was a jack-rabbit down in the street where the snow had been broken by some passing cars. It had evidently followed the tracks in. It was sitting on its haunches, Herb says, and was wiggling its long ears in perplexity, as if working out a problem. I pre sume that wiggling Its ears may give a jackrabbit the same mental support that humans get out of scratching their heads. . After a few minutes of this, the jack evidently reached a decision. H laid its ears down along its back and TOOK OFF TO THE SOUTH at high speed. I think Its decision was prob ably sound. OH YES; I knew there was something else before tack ling politics. New York has had a change in the weather. The temperature has nose-dived to SO ABOVE. From all I've been able to gather, they've been going around back there In their nylon shirta and their shorts, fanning themselves. I don't think I'm a particular ly vindictive sort of person, but the cockeyed summer they've been having back on the East Coast has griped me no end. I'm glad to see 'em have to put , on at least their sport jacket to ward off this unaccustomed chill. YOU may wonder why we newspapers carry compara tive temperatures irom over me country. We continued it even back In the paper shortage days when we were leaving out ad vertising thus proving beyond question that we set a lot of store by these things. I'll let you in on a little secret: We go on printing these tern- narstura tnhlf'i so that in winter we can find some country that is COLDER THAN OURS and in summer some place that is a lot hotter. LET'S see. Isn't there a fable about the fox that lost its tail and undertook to convince all the other foxes that they too should get rid of their tails? It wouldn't be so bad to be without a tail, Bre'r Fox reason ed, if nobody else had a tail. I'M NEVER quite sure that if we were ALL as poor as church mice we might not be quite happy about it. It's seeing some bloated plutocrat who has more than we have that upsets us. OUR friends the Fair Dealers (nee New Dealers) are assur ing us, now that another cam- nalfln i,nnl fa linnn 1l thflt. In a few years more, if they are kept in power, the poor will all be rich and the rich will all be poor. Al any raic, mai s a uenc-i scheme than making us all rich. Man Charged With Beating Son To Death Waxahachle, Tex., Jan. 19 (U.R) Jerry Brock, 27, today faced a charge of kicking his three-year-old son to death while trying to make him stop crying. Brock, of Ennis. Tex., was charged with murder after he admitted beating and kicking the child, Denny, who died of a ruptured stomach. "The crying all started when Brock spanked the baby for soil ing his pants," Sheriff Buck Whit said. Then we wouldn't have anybody to look down on. gHUCKS: I Just looked at the clock and thn,B Ivn'l (imtt onmtOh lpft tO plunge into a dissertation on the growingly complicated political situation that is stewing up in wnsmngion.

Here is Mary Mills' modern version of "kipfel" ... a treasured Old Country "Float Doh" recipe, sent in by a long-time friend and user of Fisher's Blend Flour. First mix sugar, yeast and water. Let stand until light and fluffy. Then rub butter, flour and salt together until crumbly like coarse corn meaL Beat eggs well. Add milk, scalded and cooled, extracts and yeast mixture. Stir this into flour mixture until smooth. It will be a VERY SOFT DOUGH. Do not knead this dough. Take a clean flour sack free from holes. Dip it in cold water and wring out dry. Lay it flat on table and dust with flour. Put dough in center, bring corners of sack up and tie loosely. Leave plenty of room for dough to expand. Fill a good-sized container with about 3 quarts of water COOL to the hand. Drop dough in carefully. Set aside to raise. It will float when ready. Lift dough out of water carefully and turn it into a bowl. You will have to scrape dough from cloth. In another flat bowl, have V cup sugar and 2 table spoons of cinnamon well mixed. With a spoon, take dough about size of an egg and press it flat in sugar mixture. Take this dough and twist it once or twice to make a roll about wiener size. Shape into a horseshoe . . . and lay carefully in well-buttered pan about 1 inch apart. This will make 25 or 30 rolls. Sprinkle remaining sugar over tops. Set aside in warm place to raise . . . about 1 hour ... or until double in size. B.ike at 350 degrees for 30 min utes, or until nicely browned. For variation, sprinkle with chopped walnut meats . . . almonds cut in slivers ... or mix 2 tablespoons poppy seeds with sugar and cinnamon . . . and you will have 3 different kinds of roll in one batch of dough. These ate true Hungarian Rolls, or Kipfel, and are very rich. They should have a crisp, sugary glazed crust when baked. This is truly a holiday bread that can be served on any occasion. You'll like Hungarian Water Rolls with coffee ... "a kipfel with every cupful!" Be sure the flour you use is FISHER'S BLEND. There is no better flour made.
