J THUP.8DAT, A"""'iMM,- MEDrORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORO. OREGON Feeding the Family By ZOLA VINCENT Food Editor Dramatic Gelatine Moldi Novelty In lummir Menus No question about It. Wom an like gelatine molds make them by the million or pleasing family and friends, Modern gel-cookery is a basic, economical method of food preparation. It opens up new worlds of meal-fixing with ver-new variety of extra good main dishes, salads and desserts. They're so easily and quickly made In cool of the day. Gel-cookery begins with plain, unflavored gelatine (al ways spelled with a final "e"); the indespensable in gredient with which you can combine real flavors and with which you can choose the de gree of sweetness, the exact food combinations and tex tures the family likes best. Real gelatine does not clash with other flavors; adds vital nutrition to very dish, rive Ways With 'Gel' Variations on the basic gel. tine mixture results in five types of gelatine dishes; aspic, whips, snows, chiffons and whipped cream mixtures. As pic is a basic gelatine mix- ture utilizing tomato or other juices. Whips and "snows' are desserts. Chiffons often go Into pies. Whipped cream mixtures usually go Into des aerts like Bavarian cream or into main dishes like Chicken Mousse. Avocado-Egg Salad Aspie Is Pictured The aspic loaf pictured and served with cold cuts or ham calls for avocado, celery, hard-cooked egg; all summer time favorites. The unflavored gelatine gives them a new fashion look In loaf style. Avo cado swirls are decorative. Ten servings.

Combine Chickens And Neeiarlnas August abundance of broil er-fryers and an abundance of nectarines caused the home economists for nectarine growers to combine these two delectables with plentiful dairy sour cream in a dish to be remembered and repeated.

Child's Appetite Likely is Slump Warm weather causes many appetities, both young and old, to become capricious so if the young ones just plain refuse to eat all that Is set before them, mother had best relax and let their appetites be her guide. Junior may be ravenous one day, reject food the next. So the wise mother takes pains to offer foods that are tempting according to the weather and let's It go at that. Here are some summer sug gestions designed to help solve this perennial problem Forget the schedule. If bacon and eggs seem too much breakfast, give the young ones their egg hard-cooked or otherwise any time during the day. Sprinkle riced fruit flavored gelatin over the breakfast cereals and see what happens. L-oia toods nave just as much nourishment as ' hot foods. A cold soup with-hot biscuits or a toasted sandwich make fine eating. If children reject hot vegetables, put the vegetables in soups or salads or offer them raw for munch ing any time. , Funny faces prove fascinat ing on hot cereal or even mashed potatoes. Use raisins for face-making. Never heard of raisins in mashed potatoes? Neither dtd we. Youngsters get extraordin arily thirsty; need lots of liquids. Keep plenty of milk. fruit Juices, vegetable Juices on hand. Serve them "on the rocks" for added attraction. It nothing works, - don't make an issue of it. If he (or she) is hungry, they'll eat Just like their father. Too much urging and you're likely to have a real problem.

The solid fueled "Instant ICBM" broke in two and both flaming sections fell Into the sea a few miles from the cape, The fuel continued to burn as the sectlona sank to the bot tom and smoke continued to bubble to the surface for some time. The wreckage was quickly spoiled oy recovery boats which marked the site and prepared to recover the pieces so scientists can determine what went wrong with the missile which has a high per- lormance record. Italians Vow To Get Pictures Ravello, Italy - (Df 0 - The "Paparazzi," free-lance Italian photographers who recognize no ground rules, vowed -today to d 1 ( regard restrictions placed on picture-taking dur ing the visit here of Mrs. Jac queline Kennedy and ' her daughter, Caroline. "There will be some con fusion but we will get our pictures," said Elio Sorci, one of the lensmen from Rome' who wander about Italy in search of the off-beat shot of a celebrity. "We have never failed." Sorcl and about 75 of his colleagues were nearby as four year old Caroline ex plored the Old World with some new playmates.

BOND SALE With mounting urgency, the U.S. Treasury Is being warn ed by the central bankers of the entire free world that as it must borrow money to cover the swelling deficit In our Federal budget, it must tap the "savings of the people" by selling long-range U.S. bonds to you and me and to the savings Institutions which hold our nesteggs. Only If the Treasury meets the deficit in this way, say the bankers including the chairman of our own Federal Reserve System, William McChesney Martin will the world have confidence that we're not going to "turn the printing presses" to get the necessary cash and that our dollar's value will be protected. Well, the Treasury made a stab at doing just this last week. It offered to sell up to $750 million of new U. S. Treasury bonds due 30 years from now in 1902 and carrying a coupon of 4Vi per cent at a price of 101 per bond mean ing the buyer of the bond earns 4. IS per cent a year on his money. That's quite a high coupon on a U.S. bond; the fa miliar savings bond returns only 3 per cent If held 'to maturity. And the buyer of the new 4H knows he'll get the coupon for many years to come. What happened? It was a flop. Altogether, the Treasury raised enly 131S million from investors and even. though officials said whkn they put the bond on sale that thay didnt expect buyers io take anywhere near the 1750 million being offered, the whole operation was a disappointment. Why? Was the sale a flop, particularly among Individual invest ors, because you haven't been educated to buying long-term marketable bonds from the U. S. Treasury In this era? Yes. You know about E bonds, for you've been told over and over that they're for sale and you know how to buy them. If you were an adult In World War II, you knew about the great war bond drives - In which the Treasury sold tens of billions of dollars of long-term marketable bonds paying a minimum 21 per cent a year; those war bond campaigns were miracles In public education. But you haven't been educated on ways to buy marketable bonds from the U. S. Treasury now. There has been no attempt to educate you. Was the sale a flop because of lack of publicity and be cause of its timing? Definitely, ye. The Treasury announced the offering of the new bonds and it was a surprise even to market professionals - late Thursday afternoon, July 26, and the story was reported in the financial sections of big city newspapers Friday, July 27. That was the only business day between announcement of the sale and the actual sale on Monday, July 30. More over, the sale of the bonds was restricted to that one day -at midnight Monday, the sale ended. This timing hardly gave you time to find out that a bond was on ssle. to decide to buy It and to learn how to go about it. It scarcely gave the men wno manage jne investments of our country s savings oanxs, savings associations. Insurance companies, pension funds, etc., time to make up their minds either. Was the sale a flop because of the interest rate - a 4'. per cent coupon and a yield of 4.19 per cent? Yes and no. A 4Vi par cent coupon does compare favorably with savings bonds but many Institutional investors who held eur savings are looking for the highest annual return they can get - and top-grade corporate bends give them sub stantially more than U per cent. Many also shy from put ling savings Into a bend not due until 1992, for they faar interest rates may rite above today's levels in coming yars. As an Individual, you might hare liked thai 4t per cent coupon but lots of institutions limply did net. The plain fact is that the U. S. Treasury never has fi. nanced a big part of a year's budget deficit throuah taDDlna our aavings. It has obtained most of the money from the na tion's banks. If it tries to tap our savings now, a major campaign of education will be essential - and so also miv h higher Interest rates to attract Investors. The traditional Ideal of conservative finance calls for borrowing outside the banks when a country runs a deficit. But it's an Ideal we've never achieved and we won't unless and until the Treasury tackles the Job in an entirely dif ferent way.
