Couple Spends Year
Making Fruit Cakes
Salisbury, Vt. (U.R) It's
Christmas the year 'round at the
home of Mr. and Mrs. William
Lane.
The couple spend much of the
year making fruit cake which
they store for sale until Chirst
mas time. When they started
their small business in 1953 they
made 100- pounds of cake; this
year they expect to make over a
ton.
Mrs. Lane's recipe is based on
one used by her grandmother
and, of course, the older the
cakes, the better. Each cake is
wrapped, packaged, boxed and
neatly gift wrapped.
Both join in baking the cakes
which requires about two hours.
Ingredients include butter,
brown sugar, nuts, raisins, cur
rants, "citron, cinnamon, mace
and. nutmeg, bits of wine and
whiskey. After basting twice in
pplejack brandy, the cakes are
wrapped in aluminum foil and
tr he saw a town ablaze with
Christmas cheer.
Lincoln Square is a mass of
colored lights and yuletide deco
rations and most of the streets
are banded by electrical displays
appropriate to the season.
But chances are that the Pres
ident and his distinguished guest
will stick to the farm and talk
about world problems instead of
looking at Christmas decora
tions. High point on the Eisenhower
Nehru agenda for yesterday was
an inspection of the growing
here? of Aberdeen Angus cattle
being raised on the Eisenhower
farm by the President and some
of his friends.
Nehru, too, is much interested
in animals but his tastes are
somewhat different from those
of the President. Nehru has a
tiger for a pet, but Mr. Eisen
hower prefers cattle, sheep and
hogs.
Seven Cases of Disease
Reported Last Week
Seven cases of communicable
diseases were reported to the
Jackson County health depart
ment last week, according to
Dr. A. Erin Merkel, public
health physician.
The cases included two of
chicken pox, two measles, two
mumps and one tuberculosis in
I Jacksonville.

Reduction in School English Classes Urged
Hamilton, N.Y. iU.R) A New
Yorke State English Council
committee has recommended
that high school English classes
be reduced to 25 students.
The commmittee on 'class size
and teacher load also recom
mended that total teacher load
be confined to 100 students.
The group said they found in
a two year study that English
teachers cannot do an adequate
job for the average student
when the teacher load and class
totals exceed those figures.
The committee said in a report
published by Colgate university,
that special provisions must be
made for the least talented stu
dents and also for exceptional
students. It suggested teachers
be given adequate time for eval
uation of papers and conference
with students, and for teacher
responsibilities in school other
than teaching.
George Sees Unity
As Hope for Peace !
Radium Springs, Ga. (U.R!
Retiring Sen. Walter F. George
(D-Ga.), told a testimonial din
ner in his honor Monday night
closer union of the United States '
and its Western Allies is "our
real hope for stability in the i
years to come." j
Some 1,500 people overflowed j
the Radium Springs'Casino here
to pay homage to the veteran '
statesman who ends. more" than
30 years in Congress with the '
beginning of the next session
Jan. 3.
George told his audience that
the United States "must con-
tinue to. be prepared for any
eventuality in world affairs, j
There's no substitute for it." !
Of the currant Middle East j
crisis, he said "Perhaps we,
should cease to talk so much of
the errors or arguments with
our friends, Great ' Britain,
France and Israel, for I think
it far more important that Eng
lish speaking peoples, of this
earth bind more closely togetrg
er.
"This is our real hope for sta
bility in the center."
George warned that unless thec
Suez Canal is opened up sofln,
"there will be a period of defla
tion in European capitals which
eventually ' will be felt in the
United States .' . . This defl
ation at first in the United States
might appear as Inflation." ,

tive branch of government is

newest addition was the State
Commerce Department formed
