WHITE KING SOAP Remember the soft, sweet fragrance of your mother's linen cupboard? The heaping piles of fresh-smelling, downy-soft towels. The cool, crisp stacks of snowy white sheets. To produce such wonders your mother used real soap. Probably White King Soap. Nothing else could make her wash so deep-clean... so light, bright and fragrant Real soap can do the same for you. Even take clothes dulled and stiffened by years of laundering in other products and restore their freshness. Next washday, try White King Soap. Make that sweetness you remember -yours! Even in hardest watei You're lust 2 steps away from a better washday! IP THERE'S A BABY IN YOUR HOUSE It's especially important . to wash all of baby's things in White King Soap.

Frozen Food Use Said Increasing Corvallis If you consid er yourself an average cust omer, you probably ate your way through about 45 pounds of frozen foods last year. To day's shoppers are finding more frozen food items than ever dreamed possible thirty years ago, and all signs indi cate that the trend is going to continue. Food marketing tips from the county extension office and Oregon state college show that the frozen food sec tion is the fastest growing department in today's super market. The number of froz en food items has risen 82.5 per cent iij only three years. Frozen foods have ballooned into a two billion dollar a year industry. Today this industry pro vides fresh frozen crabmeat for Kansas, lobster for the Northwest, fresh salmon for Chicago . . . plus about 30 kinds of vegetables, 10 kinds of juice, meat and fruit pies, fish and fowl, meat and soups, pizza and chow mein for any food shopper, anytime, any where in the country. . Shortage of space, more than anything, limits the size of the frozen food counters in your neighborhood store, point out home 1 economists. Up to late 1957, 1900 differ ent frozen food items are or had been manufactured. Su permargets often find it im possible to display the large assortment of frozen foods produced. Frozen food departments are expensive to equip and maintain. With food retailing so highly competitive, there is constant need to keep re tail stores' building costs and equipment investments as low as practical. Frozen food packers face terrific compe tition getting their products before the public. Because of limited retail display cases, only the foods that seem to move the best are kept in stock. Progress hasn't stopped. The future will bring more new and different frozen foods. Frozen prepared foods are making a big hit. Prepar ed sandwiches, sandwich fill ings and dehydrofrozen foods are among the iuture foods the homemaker will most like ly be seeing.

Place cheese balls in slightly thickened gelatin, evenly spacing them in a row. Ar range pear halves cut-side down on top of cheese balls. Pour remaining gelatin over pears. Chill until firm.

Mrs. Ruby Rusque Speaker for Club Don Blanding, vagabond ; poet and wanderer, was the subject chosen by Mrs. Ruby Rusque, guests peaker on the program at the last Wednes day study club meeting. Mrs. Rusque read and commented on several selections from Mr. Blanding's various books of poetry. Mrs. W. N. Wycoff re viewed, "The Blind Messen ger of Hope," authored by Alexander Seymour and Basil Miller, printed in Braille, in the John Milton magazine.
