Kate Smith Old-Fashioned When Cooking for Guests By JEANNE LESEM United Press International New York-(UPD-Singer Kate Smith is an old-fashioned host ess when "company's com ing." She likes to serve home made hot breads and cakes that no packaged mix ever managed to duplicate. But she's not above ringing in dishes made from canned, frozen or packaged products when time runs short, if the dish itself does not suffer from the short cuts. The old-fashioned custom of guests dropping in at meal time without notice at either her summer home at Lake Placid, N.Y., or her New York apartment doesn't upset Miss Smith. "I have always welcomed guests and urged them to stay, because that is the way I was brought up," she said in an interview in connection with her book,' The Kate Smith "Company's Coming" (Prentice Hall). Lives on Island "It is more difficult for guests to drop in on me at Camp Sunshine (her summer home) because I live on an island," she said. However, a phone call from shore brings her speedboat to the mainland to pick up un expected arrivals. Then mod ern devices like deep freezes and convenience foods come to her rescue. Kate sometimes pitches in to help with the cooking, and she always plans menus, over sees the .preparation and se lects table settings. This keeps her pretty busy in the summer, for her moth er, sister, and two teen-aged nieces stay at Camp Sunshine, along with guests whose visits may range from a week to County Rule Explained For Zonta The contrast between up to date city and outmoded coun ty governments in Oregon was forcefully demonstrated by a skit presented by Med ford League of Women Voters for Zonta club Thursday noon. Mrs. Ben Day then explained the need for a revision of county rule which was estab lished 100 years ago for a rural . economy and does not meet modern requirements Mrs. Frank Wilson, Mrs. Thomas Goff and Mrs. Fred Danielson appeared in the skit. Mrs. Thomas Rutter, also of the League of Women Vot ers, gave the pros and cons for the other bills which will appear on the November ballot. As is stated in the "Voters Information" pamphlet com piled by the League of Wom en Voters of Oregon, the group does not endorse or oppose candidates, but does take a stand on issues con cerning which members have reached an agreement for de sirable legislation. Zonta club members were informed that the league favors the "County Home Rule Amendment" and the bill to raise salaries of the state legislators. Mrs. Bonnie Wilson, presi dent of the Zonta club was elected delegate to the Zonta International District VIII conference to be held in Boise i next month. Mrs. Irean Grigs- i by was elected alternate dele- gate. ' Serve canned green beans in orange-butter with baked ham. Heat the green beans and drain. Reheat a few min utes with 2 tablespoons each orange juice and butter and I 2 teaspoon grated orange a month. But her dinner table rarely is crowded as on one occasion when Kate was hostess to 65 persons, members of her tele vision company who went to Lake Placid to film a TV show. She also serves homemade foods at Christmas and on other occasions. Makes Gifts "I feel that older people and shut-ins really appreciate the thought behind these gifts, because they know that 'lov ing care' went into the prepa ration," she said. "I think this probably stems from a custom my mother and grandmother established many years ago," she added. So, before any of, the holi days, you'll find me busy in my kitchen making cookies, brownies, Monadnock delights (a brownie-like cookie topped with chocolate bits), cherry nut bread, and Mamie's million-dollar fudge.' Mamie's Fudge The latter is a recipe from Mrs. Dwight Eisenhower, wife of the president. Miss Smith included this recipe in her book, plus many others which were passed along to her by fans, family, and friends. . Her cookbook is not for gourmets who insist that the only good meal is a compli cated one. But it should de light anyone who hankers for plain-but-rich, old - fashioned dishes like grandma used to cook. Nelson Heads Group Touring Camp White Camp White Department Commander George O. Nel son headed a group of Am erican Legion state officers who visited the Veterans ad ministration domiciliary on Thursday.
