The idea originated with Miss Leah L. Harshman, church pastor and now trustee of the Community Industries Association, which includes the Lucy Ellen Candies Divi sion. Using her own favorite receipe, given her by friends, Miss Harshman persuaded two nieces, Lucia Harshman and Eileen Hagerman, to make chocolate - dipped creams. Their brother-in-law sold them. The first sales efforts fail ed, Miss Harshman said in an interview, but once a dis tribution system was devel oped, the company expanded. Today, it shares a factory with a housedress manufacturer and a garden tools division. Together they employ some 200 persons, only about half of them members of the founding church. The boxed candies they make are chocolate-dipped mints, orange creams, and jellies in such shapes as a rose, leaf, heart, bell, and star. Like the candy kitchen, Mrs. Frances Cobb Russell's fancy food business got its start in Caldwell, N.J., through necessity. "My husband always used to say we'd retire on my ham sauce recipe," Mrs. Russel said. "After his death a few years ago I didn't want to go out to work and leave my teen-aged daughters, so I de cided to try to sell the sauce commercially." After a year of experi ments, Mrs. Russell started peddling the Cobb's Corner Ham Sauce herself, demon strating it in shops and to women's clubs. Today, even with national distribution, it's still primarily a one-woman project. "If my daughters feel like earning money, they come down to the basement kitchen and help me," in our home she said. "But I usually do all the work myself. That first evening, four years ago, I put up only forty jars. Now, I can put up over one gross in an hour, and that includes bottling and labeling." The manufacturer said she does the actual cooking and packing after supper, often working until the early morn ing hours. Soon she plans to build a factory at Parsippany, N.J., on the Cobb's Corner property that has been in her family since 1776.
